			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><!-- 		@page { margin: 0.79in } 		P { margin-bottom: 0.08in } -->Welcome to <strong>ApnaGaon.in</strong> &#8211; a contributory blog about <strong>apna gaon</strong>, meaning our village in <strong>India</strong> (Hindi: अपना गाँव). Though the term literally means <strong>our village</strong>, in buddy parlance, it can connote as <strong>belonging</strong> to one <strong>common local</strong> geographic <strong>region</strong> &#8211; a place, locality, town, city, even a community with some common regional bondage. This <strong>buddy</strong> factor is even more prevalent among migrated or emigrated persons when they catch up on news from apna gaon or <strong>back home</strong>! Quick fact: More than 70% of India&#8217;s over 1 billion population lives in about 600,000 villages, as of 2001 census (Source: http://www.censusindia.gov.in/Census_Data_2001/India_at_glance/glance.aspx).</p>
