As the President of the Energy Committee, I have been able to observe the range of changes in our village. With the coming of the lights, I see an increase in progress made by students in their academics as a result of being able to study longer hours and a visibly lesser degree of fear among our people of tigers at night. The tigers see the lights from a distance and choose to stay away, people are therefore more confident about mobility after dark. It is indeed a good feeling to feel less restricted! An increasing number of people in the neighboring villages are also developing an interest in the project having witnessed its simplicity and benefits. We congratulate the people involved in developing this solution and thank the programme for bringing light into our lives.
