After reading an article in the newspaper one morning mentioning the water woes of Antulaynagar, a basti populated by cured Leprosy patients and their approximately 200 families, we took a ride there and appraised ourselves of the water situation there. It was found that the Well they were using was extremely dirty and half silted up. Knowing this we immediately contacted Rtn Giri Sakhrani, then Director non-medical, and he thought it to be a good project under the HAPPY VILLAGE banner. Consequently, the Well was drained and cleaned completely. Nearly 50% extra water was the result. Rtn. Yogesh Shah negotiated a great price for the pipes. Consequently, the pipes were laid to fill the overhead tank and from there the pipes were laid along the lanes. Now every resident has a water connection in front of their home. To carry water home from a distance was extremely difficult for many because of the deformation of their fingers due to Leprosy. We are so happy that we have come this far and the residents are happy too as their testimonies show. While the project is still unfinished, we hope to carry on with the work of making this village a truly HAPPY VILLAGE.
