The project illuminated the village's main thoroughfare, facilitating safer and more convenient travel for residents, particularly at night. This demand had been repeatedly voiced by residents over the past three to four years. The absence of adequate lighting posed challenges for women, students, farmers, and senior citizens who faced difficulties commuting after dark. Additionally, it raised concerns about safety and security. Acknowledging these issues, ADTPS embarked on this crucial project as a manifestation of its corporate social responsibility. The installation of streetlights has turned the stretch into a well-lit route, markedly improving public safety and convenience. This initiative is also anticipated to bolster social and economic activities within the village.
