Students of Abhyas Galli will now study under LED streetlights

Worli's Abhyas Galli has long been a haven for students who seek a space to prepare for their exams, away from the commotion in their homes. Keeping up the spirit of Diwali, the quiet lane, which has been lacking adequate lighting, is now well lit with additional solar LED streetlights. The lights were put up by Radio City as part of the FM station's Kar Mumbaikar initiative, which seeks to take up various social causes in the city in a bid to encourage citizens to take the idea forward and do the same. Earlier this week, the radio station installed five solar LED streetlights in stretches that didn't have adequate lighting.
Putting up streetlights is part of Radio City's Mumbai ki Jalegi campaign and their aim is to tackle the issue of faulty or no streetlights by driving sustainable electrification in the city. Radio City's Chief Creative Officer, Kartik Kalla said, "One of the prominent problems Mumbaikars face is the lack of streetlights. It sometimes breeds crime and, importantly, affects kids who depend on lights to study at night. Through initiatives like #MumbaiKiJalegi, Radio City amplifies the festive spirit by driving conversation about socially relevant topics and leveraging the true power of radio. We are positive that this campaign will encourage the government and corporations to work together and bring about a change in the society."
