Monsoon delayed the construction:

Dear readers,

It is to sad to stated that monsoon shower delayed the construction due to bad road for transportation and bore-well driller to pump up the water for construction. Shower follows around 12 cm per days and farmers are happy with bumper crops in this year.

Ngari Students are still joining at every Tuesday for placing and shifting stones form place to place.On This occation of monsoon time we planted 200 trees surrounding the border of construction site.

It is time to stocking sands for the construction as during the rainy seasons price will rise up marginally due to flows of water at river basin.

Workers are preparing rods for column and beams for the Hostel.

It is really hard to go at construction site time and again due to very bad road and mud allovers the road.

In our daily Tara Prayers, we are praying for all the supporters of our project and will touch with you again in our next message.

With best wishes.

From all the staffs and student of Ngari Education.

Starting of Earth-digging for the foundation work of Hostel Contraction.

Dear Readers,

Best wishes from the staffs and students of Ngari Education Society.

We finished with the temporary House Construction for the supervisors and store rooms for construction materials, two block of Housing earth level also complicated and contractor marking for foundation and pillar side.

As the begin of monsoon, transporting materials are very hard. Unfortunately, the bored well that drilled last time, does not have sufficient water for construction which is the major problems that is being faced at the moment. The previous bore-well we drilled for 230 fts underground.

So, this time we are expecting to drill one more Borewell with the hopes for more water. Drilling of new bore well will cost Rs. 36,000.00 and donors are most welcome and appreciated.

Due to the shortage of funds for the Hostel construction, students have to work collectively digging the earth during weekend holidays. We hope you will also join us with the financial supports in order to complete the long awaited project.

For further clarification contract with our Mail ID serajeygngarimonks@yahoo.co.in or skype ID: Sera Jey Ngari.

With best wishes and our prayers are with all of you all the time. Catch with you again in our next dairy.
