RCB’S Gumbadpada Project Gets Great Press

Women trudged over a kilometre for water and men did not have water for their fields. Children did not have e-learning. All that has changed with RCB’s Intergrated Village Development Programme for Gumbadpada which has received very favourable press response since its launch. Solar energy powers a floating pump, pipes bring water up 1000 metre, and a filtration plant ensures safe drinking water. Storage tanks ensure water for agriculture. The Integrated Rural Development Plan will has initiated development in the village for solar power, sanitation, education, livelihood and planting of 450 mango and cashew trees. Lives have been transformed.
