Coimbatore: On the 24th of May, 2024, Karpagam Institute of Technology's YRC and RRC Clubs successfully held a Rain Water Harvesting Awareness Program at Nachipalayam Village, starting at 10:00 AM.

This initiative was geared towards equipping the local community with the knowledge and practical means to effectively collect and utilize rainwater, thereby alleviating the challenges posed by water shortages and enhancing both their livelihoods and the local environment.

Throughout the awareness program, the student volunteers employed diverse methods to ensure the message reached every corner of the village.



They distributed vibrant posters, banners, and flyers, all rich with crucial information concerning the importance of water conservation and the advantages of rainwater harvesting.

Assistant Professors M. Gowtham from the Electrical and Electronics Engineering (EEE) department and S. Jeniton from the Electronics and Communications Engineering (ECE) department were also present, contributing their expertise to the program.
