Diwali heralded more than festivities for residents of tribal hamlets in Titwala, as KDMC illuminated their streets for the first time. The Kalyan-Dombivli Municipal Corporation switched on 50 streetlights on November 5, just in time for the festival, ending years of darkness for these communities. The municipal corporation's decision came after tribal residents raised safety concerns during a meeting with KDMC Commissioner Abhinav Goel a few weeks prior.

The KDMC's electrical department acted swiftly, completing the installation and switching on the lights within days. Residents welcomed the much-needed civic improvement, expressing gratitude to the commissioner and the officials for responding to their long-standing demands.
As of November 5, the latest installations covered 50 streetlights across various tribal hamlets in Titwala.
