New Delhi, Nov 29 : Ratul Puri, Chairman of Hindustan Power, commended the company’s efforts to alleviate water scarcity in rural Uttar Pradesh through its CSR initiative launched in 2022. The program has installed hand pumps in water-stressed villages, providing clean water to thousands of underserved families.

“Access to clean water is a fundamental right and vital for a dignified life,” said Puri. “Our commitment to addressing these critical challenges has driven tangible improvements in the lives of marginalized communities.”

Water scarcity is a persistent issue in rural India, where access to reliable water sources is limited. Hindustan Power’s initiative has eased this burden, enabling families to focus on health, education, and productivity. The program has also reduced waterborne diseases and improved hygiene practices.

Since its inception, the initiative has been aligned with government efforts such as the Jal Jeevan Mission, which aims to ensure safe drinking water for every household. Puri emphasized the importance of sustained action and collaboration in creating meaningful, long-term change.

Hindustan Power’s CSR efforts highlight the critical role of businesses in addressing societal challenges and fostering sustainable development. The initiative stands as a model for impactful corporate responsibility, showcasing how targeted efforts can transform rural communities and promote resilience.
