<p>The wells were built in Susale Vasati and Pimpri Vasati by the NGO TERRE (Technology, Education, Research and Rehabilitation for the Environment) Policy Centre, as part of the CSR initiatives of Persistent Foundation</p>

The wells took two months to build and were planned after a four-month study by experts
Time was when fetching water used to be an uphill task for the women of Vandre village in Mulshi taluka, who had to climb up a mountain every day to get their daily quota of drinking water. But the village's thirst has finally been slaked by four new 25x25 ft wells built in two different hamlets there.
