The project focuses on increasing surface and groundwater availability through various water harvesting and management interventions, including in-situ water conservation, recharge measures, rainwater harvesting, and the revival of traditional water bodies. The project seeks to work closely with the Government and with the communities to ensure scale and sustainability, respectively.
At the recent launch, Brajesh Choudhary, Senior General Manager (Corp-CSR) at Sun Pharma, shared information about the various development projects initiated by Sun Pharma under its CSR initiative. He encouraged the community to collaborate and actively participate in the project to improve the water and agricultural scenario in the Dhari area.
In his address, Collector Ajay Dahiya emphasized the significant benefits of the project interventions, including the construction and renovation of check dams, borewell recharge, pond deepening, farm outlet construction, drip irrigation systems, horticulture plantation, and awareness and capacity-building activities. He assured government support and encouraged all participants to actively engage in the project to ensure its successful completion. He also praised Sun Pharma for its valuable support in the Dhari area.
Speaking about the project, Pearl Tiwari, CEO, Ambuja Foundation, said, “Ambuja Foundation is committed to empowering communities by promoting efficient water management, sustainable farming practices, and soil conservation. Through our strategic partnership with SunPharma, we aim to support local farmers to improve their economic status and reduce distress migration.
