NGO provides 15 houses to marginalised tribals

The NGO identified 15 families who were previously living in vulnerable and inadequate housing conditions.

Construction of these climate-resilient homes began in December 2023. The homes are uniquely designed and include a living room, kitchen, bedroom on the first floor, bathroom, toilet, and veranda.

The climate-resilient features of each home include natural ventilation, natural light, a solar rooftop, and a rainwater harvesting system.
