The integrated village development plan at Vanvasi village in Maharashtra’s Jawahar taluka has been completed by the Rotary Club of Bombay (RCB)in collaboration with Chirag Rural Development Foundation.
“The village of Vanvasi, perched atop towering hills has been provided with a submersible solar pump in a village well, powered by a solar system to provide drinking water to the 120 homes. Another submersible solar pump in a nearby dam is powered by a 10KW solar system which pulls water across 1000 metres of HDPE pipeline to provide water to over 20 acres of farmland,” said Pratibha Pai, Founder, Chirag Rural Development Foundation.
