Piramal Sarvajal, an initiative under the aegis of Piramal Foundation, today announced its partnership with Ujjivan Financial Services to provide safe drinking water to communities in Lisana village in Rewari, Haryana. Ms. Anju Chaudhary, Assistant District Commissioner, Rewari District Administration graced the occasion along with Mr. Anuj Sharma, CEO, Piramal Sarvajal and Mr. Ittira Davis, MD & CEO, Ujjivan Financial Services.

Piramal Sarvajal has partnered with Ujjivan Financial Services to provide safe drinking water services to communities. For one such village, Lisana, a purification cum dispensing unit (RO+ATM) is being set up to provide villagers with uninterrupted access to affordable safe drinking water.

So far, the village was dependent on borewell for its water supply, due to which the community often suffered from major water borne diseases like Joint Pain, Jaundice and Typhoid. This initiative by Piramal Sarvajal will benefit the villagers by catering to their need for clean drinking water in the village.

Speaking on the occasion, Mr. Anuj Sharma CEO, Piramal Sarvajal, said, “Be it financial services or reliable safe drinking water access this partnership signifies coming together of socially motivated organizations creating reliable last mile access.”

Piramal Sarvajal, an initiative of the Piramal Foundation, today announced the launch of its water purification unit in Tantadi village, in Andhra Pradesh, in collaboration with SGS India Private Limited. As part of its commitment to provide high quality and clean drinking water to the under-served communities, Piramal Sarvajal has been undertaking several programs and partnerships over the years. This partnership is one such pro-active initiative to strengthen support to this cause in the country.
