Tata Projects step towards corporate social responsibility
December 7, 2004

Keeping the tradition of the Group to do service to the society apart from the business, Tata Projects has taken a step forward by donating and installing a 1000 litres per hour “de-fluoridation unit” at Gangadevapalli village in Warangal district of Andhra Pradesh through The Federation Of Andhra Pradesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FAPPCI) in October 2004. 

The Gangadevapalli village has been adjudged as an ‘ideal’ village by the Andhra Pradesh Government and same was adopted by FAPPCI. This Village has a population of 1,200 with 230 dwelling units and the ground water contains 2.8 – 3.2 mg/litre fluoride level. While a Canadian NGO offered their assistance for the borewell, water storage and distribution network, the “de-fluoridation unit” was installed by Tata Projects in the distribution system to enable the villagers to collect the potable drinking water to WHO standard. The unit supplied by Tata Projects is working well and the villagers are happy with the services rendered by Tata. 

The skid mounted de-fluoridation unit is an in-house developmental project of Tata Projects which converts water containing fluoride and arsenic into potable water.
