In the quaint village of Fazalpur in Vidisha district of Madhya Pradesh, lives Ram Babu Kushwah, who owns a modest 2 bhiga (1.25 acres) of land. Ram Babu’s life took a positive turn when he availed LHWRF’s support to build a farm pond, measuring 30ft x 50ft and 10ft deep.
This farm pond, a lifeline for his family of six, not only aids irrigation but also became a source of additional income. Ram Babu diversified his earnings by selling ground maize, rice, and even earned Rs. 1 lakh from selling fish harvested from his own pond.

The farm pond not only transforms the economic landscape but also serves as a recreational haven and potential hub for vegetation, fostering a brighter future for the entire community….Read More
