The problems of vehicular accidents, and overflow of sewage waste were a safety and health hazard to the community in Shankar Wali Dhani village. At the request of the Panchayat, a concrete road spanning 8.5 km was constructed through the village while organising loose hazardous electrical cables and also providing essential drainage along the route. In-keeping with our vision of beneficiary participation, the Panchayat committed their support in the form of labour, or shramdaan.
