Railway Station, Kotta Pandillapalli Railway Station, Jandrapeta Railway Station, Kadavakuduru

Railway Station and Chirala Railway Station.

Background:

Akkayapalem Gram Panchayat (150 acres of land) cool coastal village in Prakasam district

near by the Chirala Town. The total population of the village is 4500 (2011 census report) with

atleast 1550 families are residing in this Akkayapalem Gram Panchayat villages diversified lifestyles

and livelihoods. It includes fishermen, weivers, daily workers, coolies, carpenters, agriculture

farmers and pastoralists. Their major occupation and profession is fishing and agriculture. This

Akkayapalem Gram Panchayat villages are having multicultured, multilingual and with diversified

traditions and occupations. These villages are the best examples of peaceful living people cultures.



In these villages people from all categories i.e. OC, BC, ST, SC were living side by side

These people groups are very special in some aspects and in physic. These people have their own

cultural and tradition values which is very much unique varying from adjacent people groups. Some

peculiar aspects make them separate from other Telugu native people. The Akkayapalem people are

highly skillful and most professional in their fishing occupation and agriculture. Every time they

easily get Rs. 15,000/- to Rs. 30,000/- rupees fishes by boating on the Bay of Bengal.

All their houses are pucca slab constructions with water, electricity, roads and street light

facilities. There was no huts or thatched houses seen in these villages. Economically these people are

well settled. But there is no police stations and hospital facilities for health or welfare security

reason. Even then most of the village disputes are solved by the appointed elders of the village as

judges. All the villagers are strictly follow the traditional village law and abid by the Justice given by

the elders of the village. These elders are called “Grama Peddalu” or “Grama Kapulu”.

The Akkayapalem villagers prefer and mostly believe in their own traditional medicine rather

than regular medicine by the doctors. But whenever their people suffer with any major health

problem or disease they prefer to come to Chirala town for medical treatment. These fishermen

groups only prefer their own law & jurisdiction and they never entertain foreigners or outers’

involvement in their own village problems. The mind set of the villagers is very strong, same and

unique for all. They are also physically & psychologically identical. Hence they would like to

maintain distance from all other groups of people for their own safety and security reason. The

village literacy rate is 69% and the lifespan of the villagers is 65 years. But all most all the elders of

the village are illiterates and ugly in look.

A few villagers are educated up to UG and PG level. These villagers prefer their children

education up to 5th class standard only. Later on they train and send their children to fishing

occupation and their own traditional cultural practices. All they failed to maintain personal

cleanliness or sanitary conditions. All age group people are present. All most all the village people

are Hindus by religion and a few are converted to Islam, Christianity and Buddhism. They have caste

discrimination than religious discrimination in their daily life. But they prefer their own style of

worshiping of local traditional gods and goddesses. Their festivals are unique. In the Government of

Andhra Pradesh state they are considered as ST, SC & BC’s and availing all the Govt. schemes.

Actual our 1st day NSS Special camp program i.e. “Clean and Green – Coordination from the

yanadicolony villagers, Akkayapalem gram panchayat” was started by the NSS volunteer students by

2.00 p.m. after finishing their lunch break. The purpose of the 1st day program is to keep the clean

surroundings and to maintain greenery for fresh atmosphere; all the NSS volunteers are divided into

teams and distributed in the village. We all know that cleanliness is godliness. Cleaning facilities and

sweeping tools are provided to the NSS volunteers to collect and clean the surroundings. At First we

started cleaning and greening program in the MPUP School premises which is in the size of 100 feet

* 200 feet. All the living plants and trees are watered. In this campaign some volunteers checked

water pipelines, water facilities, electricity facilities and cleaned bathrooms, roof tops, water tank,

latrines etc., also collected dry leaves, papers, polythene covers, plastic wastes, solid garbage etc. on

the roads of village.

In the beginning of the day wise program all the students are not that much interested to do this

voluntary work. But by the inspiration of the dedicated team leaders all the remaining team

volunteers are involved and done a wonderful work. Slowly the villagers of the yanadicolony people

are watching the activities done by us and got the awareness about cleaning and greening activity.

Some inspired students deeply involved and cleaned the outside streets and roads. By 3.00 p.m.

all the volunteers are given 15 minutes water break. Later on the afternoon session was continued

until 4.30 p.m.

team leaders and team members to one another. Team leaders submitted their 1st day report and

briefly explained their exact work they have done on the 1st day. At the end of the 1st day Clean &

Green program a few villagers came to us to introduce themselves. The children were interviewed by

the NSS volunteers so that some of the real facts were identified. By 5.00 p.m. all the NSS camp

volunteers started from the yanadicolony village by the CEC bus and reached our college campus by

5.15 p.m.

Some of the practical problems faced by the NSS Special Camp volunteers on the 1st day program:

1. NSS students requested the NSS Program Officer to relax the college dress-code rule to over-

cum sun strike and sweating during work.

2. Some of the NSS students are uninterested in the exact program because of the

unpreparedness and lack of the program facilities at first instance. But later on all the students

involved in the program.

3. Some of the students violated the camp rules by bring cell phones, and also failed to follow

the Eco-tourism trip-tips. Later on those students changed their mind set and followed

instructions given by the Program Officer of NSS camp.

4. Some of the students made comments on the villagers. Later on recognized their own faults

and repented.

5. All the NSS volunteers dedicated their efforts towards the service of Katarivaripalem village,

whole heartedly to make this eco-tourism campaign a successful and memorable event in

their lives.
