Weekend at Mangalore

I was at Mangalore for last two days, being part of an event organized to discuss the situation of water in the region. The prime focus of this edition of the program was to get audience familiarized with some aspects of technology that would help them log about the changes happening around them in the overall management of water, and record their opinions, their take on all of this.

I was surprised to hear that Mangalore, despite being in a belt that receives good rainfall every year, is heading towards a serious situation with respect to ground water and also with respect to supply of proper drinking water. There is so much to write about yesterday's event, so I'll keep that for another time (with photos and much more). For now, check Sharada Prasad's twitter updates where he covered it 'live'.
