The milk is consumed by the resident children and elders. We are submitting herewith our proposal to construct MS roof truss shed for gaushala of size 80 x 48 x 11 height to accommodate the 30 cows. The work of a new shed would enhance the capacity of the cow shed from 30 cattle to another 60 cattle.

Art and culture

Sevalaya is collaborating with the Indian Railways for this project that recalls the two years Bharathi spent in Kadayam. A man far ahead of his times, he faced the wrath of the then traditional society at Kadayam village, and was even excommunicated. It was in this town many of his immortal poems were composed. Around 1,200 Sq feet of wall space at Kilkadayam Railway station will be decorated by the paintings of incidents from the life of Bharathi and Chellamma at Kadayam.
