smart village

A startup launched by two students Nikhil Mukkawar and Ho Jing En, 'Kisan Union' is taking smart services and e-commerce to doorsteps of villagers with their solar-powered electric tricycles.

The roads that were once littered with waste and faced rampant open-defecation are clean, and lined with lush trees. The village is lit with solar lights, boasting of pucca homes painted in uniform colours, a skill development centre, a meditation centre, and even a public library!

Did you know he once injected himself with bacilli to prove that leprosy was not highly contagious? This was just one of his many attempts to smash the social stigma around the disease!

The NRIs are supposed to take a primary survey of the village when they visit, so that they know what is required to be done.

This is the first village to have a reverse osmosis plant in the region.
