In a significant move to enhance access to clean drinking water in the rural areas of West Singhbhum, five newly constructed solar water towers were inaugurated on Saturday. These installations are part of the ‘Jal Hi Jeevan Hai’ (Water is Life) campaign, funded by the CSR initiative of the Gua Ore Mines management. The inauguration ceremony commenced in Gangda village and concluded in Bada Jamkundi village. This vital project has established solar-powered water towers in Gangda, Ghatkuri, Duiya, Chhota Jamkundi, and Bada Jamkundi villages. These towers are designed to provide villagers with a consistent supply of clean, safe, and reliable drinking water. The adoption of solar energy not only champions environmental protection but also offers much-needed relief to communities facing water scarcity. The event saw the presence of several dignitaries, including GM (Mines) S.P. Das and GM (E&L) Dr. T.C. Anand from SAIL management, along with Gangda Panchayat Mukhiya Raju Sandil, Manki Lagura Devgam, and Munda Ruben of Jamkundi, alongside a large number of enthusiastic villagers. The successful execution and leadership of this project, overseeing the construction of all solar water towers, were managed by DGM (CSR) Anil Kumar.
