Sustainability
Creating and measuring long-term impact
This project has been implemented by the Women's Pani Samiti. This hamlet comes under the group GP. The Pani Samiti is being treated as the sub committee of the GP and is responsible for the management of project and to ensure water distribution to all families.
The project is handed to the GP and is responsible for the collection of the water tax and repairs and maintenance when need arises.
Learnings
Knowledge of project and process for sharing
Remote and interior hamlets such as Narlewadi are often neglected and the benefits of the govt schemes are not received by the poor and the needy communities. They deserve the external support like BPR to provide the very basic and the most important need of safe drinking water.
