Vinod Meena is a Sarvajal operator of the Safe Drinking Water facility in partnership with HDFC Life

Vinod is also an active member of the Gram Panchayat and is enthusiastically working with the panchayat to enforce the preventive measures of COVID 19. He has been entrusted with the task to list the neediest families of the village which will be shared with the collector for action to be taken. 

With the start of April, the ration will be distributed to these families.

As he is a Sarvajal operator and works diligently with the community as part of his duties to raise awareness on water and health linkages, he could prepare this list quickly. He along with few others in the village is ensuring that everyone is comfortable during the lockdown period. He also helped distribute more than 150 masks in the village. 

Along with serving the community with safe drinking water services, he has been educating the people of the village on taking precautions and being safe. Information on Dos & Don'ts, correct ways of handwashing, using a mask and washing the utensils before filling water is being heavily promoted to the villagers of Gunawad, Madhya Pradesh.


Vinod also sanitizes the plant and ATM daily to ensure that he provides safe service to the villagers. 
In Vinod’s own words, "bas yahi chahte hai ki gaon tak ye bimaari na aaye, koshish kar rahe hai aur abhi bhi logo ko baar baar samjha rahe hai bahar aaye toh mooh dhakkar ya mask lagakar aaye. Goan wale kaafi satark hai aur shurakshit bhi mehsoos kar rahe hai."

Sarvajal team gives kudos to such heroes who are selflessly serving the communities.
