Project Oorani

Sir.C.V.Raman, the renowned Indian physicist, rightly said that water is the elixir of life. Clean water is indispensable for leading a healthy life. But there are over 800 million people in India1(over two times the population of United States) without this basic necessity. The World Bank also states an alarming figure - 21% of the communicable diseases in India are related to unsafe water. It naturally becomes important to address this situation. Over the past decade, the phenomenal industrial advancement in India has helped improve drinking water facilities in many cities.
