Dignified way: Needy people collecting clothes at the ‘Wall of Kindness’ at Nagayalanka shandy. Nearly 200 pairs of clothes, at least 50 traditional saris, toys and shoes were attached to the wall hangers. On every Sunday, people from the 22 panchayats in Nagayalanka mandal including the islands throng here for the weekly shandy by walk and boat. “The local panchayat authorities and revenue officials on Sunday proposed to run the ‘Wall of Kindness’ 24x7 from next week. “I have noticed that the dignity of the needy is being respected through this model,” says Mr. Sekhar.
