Bore Hole
The drilling of the bore hole will bring new training for the villagagers as part of the plan initiated by WiL ministry. There will be education for the school children in sanitation and hygiene. Latrine artisans will be trained and the women will learn about soap making. The Water Council will be responsible for the bore hole and helping the community to take ownership of the long awaited clean water.
