“My father tells me that a long time ago, the soil of this place was extremely dry. During summer, the heat wave would would bring in diseases like cholera and malaria and many people died especially, men who worked outside of their houses. Someone died in every household. The whole town would became a town of widows. But with proper irrigation, a toilet for each house, and healthcare that is not the case anymore.”
