After discussing with Prasad Sir, he wants confirmation about the dryer that we are analyzing. Was a dryer converted from an oven? Should we send a quotation for the dryer or the oven?
I had a call with Jyoti ma’am regarding this, that they will run some trials to see the overall analysis, then she will inform me in the meantime. Ma’am advised me to send the quotations of different solar dryers with some other problems that were identified by me during the visit, like polyhouse and solar dryer use, etc. Now I have to discuss with Prasad Sir.
Conclusion – Every person in the institute was working for the upliftment of the socially backward people through various activities, ranging from the food department to the hospitality department. There are problems driven by the technical aspect in every department. Vigyan Ashram is looking forward to collaborating to solve the specific problems in every manner with respect to a scientific approach. This three-day field visit was a memorable visit to encapsulate the institute’s prospect regarding Kokankar and for all community people through spirituality and hospitality.
