Naxalbari, 26th April: Taking prompt action to address the water crisis faced by students, Maniram Gram Panchayat Pradhan Gautam Ghosh laid the foundation stone for a solar-powered pure drinking water project at Bengai Jote Primary School in Naxalbari.
Despite the presence of a tube well and a PHE tap, students had been suffering from water shortages during school hours due to a broken drinking water tap. Responding to a request from the school authorities, the Panchayat sanctioned the project at a cost of Rs 5.30 lakh from its fund.
