Andaman & Nicobar Islands: These words are something special to me. Because, I was able to know myself during my staying at Katchal Island of Nicobar district. I was there as an Agricultural assistant for rehabilitation project of Tsunami affected areas of Nicobar Islands during April 2005 to May 2006. Mr. Abu Bakkar, Ex Joint Director, Department of Agriculture, A & N Islands was the team leader and Mr. Ravi George, Mr. Ajoy Kumar and Er. V. Sashi Kumar were three other assistants along with me in our team.
We had started vegetable production for the first time in that Island. We had developed hectars of coconut plantations in that region.
We often visited other parts of the Island ( Upper Katchal) by Fibre made mechanised boat. The journey was awesome indeed.
We had excavated a pond for better use of rain water and for irrigation purpose also.
