Jindal's Vidya Nagar Township, Toranagallu

On Saturday evening, while exploring for crushers in Bellary district, Karnataka for our project work, my driver informed me about temple located in Vidya Nagar Township at Toranagallu, Bellary. This place is famous for iron ore mining and steel manufacturing.

There is an environmental friendly integrated steel plant having capacity of 1.6 million Tpa which is owned by Jindal Vijaynagar Steel Limited. Organisation has set up good healthy environment full of plants to control pollution surrounding factory area and township.

We had darshan of "Prabhu Shri Ramchandra, Lakshaman, Janaki & Bajarangabali" at Shri Panchavati temple. 

After that we have seen Artificial Lake & Garden decorated flowers along with cow made up of stainless steel and huge pot made up of combination of stainless steel & terracotta coating.

We have also visited O. P. Jindal memorial hall to gather information about history and development of Jindal group. At last we had delicious Samosa and at left for Home.  

This was very pleasant sightseeing and Temple visit within limited time.

A Parrot at my place...

Shoot the birds with camera not with gun

Self is working at L&T Construction and presently staying at bachelor guest house provided by company at Koppal, Karnataka. It is two storey building & My room is at first floor. 

There is sufficient parking space available in front of our guest house campus to play underarm cricket. On every Sunday second half myself and my colleague, we used to play cricket at same place. 

On last Sunday morning as usual I woke up late at around 10 am and I saw that children around our guest house were playing at our place. After 11 am I saw that 2 boys from their team came to my floor and were looking at Badam's tree. I asked them what happen? What do you want? They replied in their local language "Navu gini viksisuttiruva." I didn't understand. One of them spoke only a word "Parrot" in English, but there was no parrot on tree. After that both guys went to their house for lunch.

On very next Sunday as usual I woke up late and I was brushing my teeth in same balcony. I looked towards badam tree and It was just happy moment for me to get pleasant look of parrot. Immediately I thought to call all my friends but no one was there around me to share that moment. I rushed to my room for taking this beautiful snap for you... 

I am thankful to those boys for informing about presence of parrot on that tree.

Nowadays we are living in concrete jungle it is difficult to see our environmental friends around us.

Please plant tree and help environment.
