Thanks to the police's efforts, the villagers no longer have to drink water from this pond

For the adivasis of Phanaswadi village, some 40 kilometres from Panvel, it is the police who have truly given them achhe din. For the first time, the villagers have clean drinking water, electricity and roads - all thanks to the Panvel Taluka police.
