  • Yogesh Chavan, an HR manager, initiated a mission in 2014 to transform the village into a sustainable community.
  • Key projects included restoring an old dam, leading to the revival of the Vasana river and improved water accessibility.
  • Farmers now experience abundant water availability, with wells replenished to depths as low as 15 feet, vastly improved from 350 feet.
  • Yogesh's efforts have inspired similar projects in surrounding villages, promoting sustainable agriculture in the region.
