culture.

:It's Raining & it is so beautiful:

Rain is soming down in Tankaria with all the force & pressure since this morning and people are so excited, very happy,
Temperature is just perfect with coolness in the air and green grass everywhere. Kids are getting wet in the rain water

: Innovative Tankarvi, Modern Farming: Nourani Farmhouse:

Tankarvis are very innovative, thinks things for tomorrow. Our grandfathers started the High Schools, Darul-Ulooms  to
make sure our next generation is well educated. This generation came up with Ultra Water Filtration Plant to give villager's
clean water & new roads for transportation. Now, Ismail Saheb Nagiya wants to take farming to the next level.

Farming is not an old generation business anymore. It is the future. People in western countries have ultra
modern farms in the hearts of cities. So, when Ismail Saheb Nagiya decided to have this farm with few modern touches,
it gives a very good feeling that people in our village would not forget the backbone of our economy. The way we do
farming has changed but the concept remains the same.

getting wet & mothers are leaving kids roam free. This is the scene after first rain in Tankaria. After such a long time & a
brutal summer, people are appreciating the first rain so much. The heat wave in this summer has left so many people
visiting the hospitals & others bed ridden.

Finally, Allah(SWT)'s rahmat came into our village. May Allah (SWT) keep the smile forever on the faces of my villagers.
May Allah (SWT) make this monsoon season full of Rahmat & bring Barakah in the incomes of our hard working farmers.
Ameen.

: Progress on the Sitpon-Tankaria Canal Clean-Up:

Last week, we posted the news on the clean-up of Tankaria-Sipin canal which takes the rain & excess water off the village
Tankaria to the river Narmada. The work is in full force. The clean-up has reached almost to completion. Yesterday, the
bull-dozer was by Vadiwala Hafeji's house which is usually the beginning point of the flood water build-up.

"Team-Tankaria's" effort came at a very precise time as village just experienced it's first rain after a brutal summer. We
pray for the Monsoon filled with Rahmah. This clean-up will lead to easier & convenient access to Mota Padar after heavy
rain. Merchants from Mota Padar can not even sleep at night during heavy rain worrying for their shops & inventories but
Insha Allah this clean-up will make their nights peaceful. And, students & Up-Downers will be very happy as there will be
no day off or loss of work because no access to transportation.

: Progressive Tankaira:

We mentioned earlier that, the flooding in Mota Padar around rainy season is a big issue every year in Tankaria. The
flooding left Tankarvis with lost of income & damage to property or inventory. This year around, Team Tankaria do not
want to take any chances.

The root cause of the flooding is the clear route for rain water out of the village. The route, Sitpon-Tankaria canal, which
takes rain water out of the village gets clogged up with year around mud & unwanted trees. It is very necessary to open
this canal to make sure the water path out of the village is clear. So, our "Team Tankaria" has already started this
program of cleaning the Sitpon-Tankaria canal way before the monsoon season starts.

Here, look at the heavy machines working in & around the Sitpon-Tankaria Canal & our leaders Sarpach Haji Arif Patel,
Deputy Haji Babu Bhai Bhutawala & very respected Taluka Panchayat Member Ghulam Bhai Ghodiwala.
