Project Roushni
About The Project
Project Raushni was initiated to address the lack of adequate lighting in the Dhobi Ghat area of Batla House, a neighbourhood where poor illumination routinely affected mobility, safety, and daily functioning. In partnership with Janman People’s Foundation, SEEKH Foundation implemented a sustainable and low-maintenance solar lighting solution to meet this essential community need.
Implementation
Solar street lights were installed across key points identified in
consultation with residents. Priority locations included narrow lanes, commonly used pathways, and
areas where inadequate lighting posed safety risks, especially for women, children, and elderly
residents.
Impact
This intervention created several tangible improvements in the community
Enhanced safety and mobility
Support for livelihood activities
Reduced dependence on unreliable electricity
Improved community environment
Strengthened Community Trust
