Tata Power, India’s largest integrated power utility, on Tuesday said its wholly-owned subsidiary Coastal Gujarat Power Ltd (CGPL), in association with the Aga Khan Rural Support Program, has installed roof-rain water harvesting structures at Modhva village under the ‘Sagarbandhu’ project.

The objective was to generate awareness on proper usage of natural resources by providing an independent water supply. This initiative will help women of the village get water at their doorsteps. Moreover, it will not only ensure continual supply of water in times of drought, but also prevent flooding in low-lying areas, the company said in a statement here on Tuesday.

It will also help in replenishing the ground water table thus enabling dug wells and bore wells to sustain adequate water, said K.K Sharma, Executive Director and CEO, CGPL.
