In Kasreti village, situated within the Sampla tehsil of Rohtak district, Haryana, the absence of potable drinking water has been a multi-generational problem rather than a recent issue. According to local residents, potable drinking water was historically unavailable within the village bounds, forcing community members into arduous daily routines to meet basic hydration needs.

Women and elderly residents had to walk long distances to draw water from far-off wells or travel approximately 2 to 2.5 kilometers to reach the village diggi (water storage pool). Numerous families were forced to purchase drinking water on a daily basis, spending between ₹100 and ₹150 every day.
Continuous consumption and usage of saline and poor-quality water caused widespread health complications, specifically skin diseases such as itching and skin infections. A 54-year-old local resident reported that in his entire lifetime since birth, he had never seen clean, sweet drinking water facilities available within Kasreti village.
Elderly female residents stated that for decades, villagers were forced to filter murky or brackish water from agricultural fields using cloth to make it consumable.
Request Submission and Initiative Execution by Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj under Phase 2
To find a permanent resolution to this long-standing water crisis, the residents of Kasreti village submitted a formal request to Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj through the Muninder Dharmarth Trust, Kurukshetra (Haryana). Following the submission of the request, systematic steps were executed under the direct command of Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj:
- Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj received the request from the villagers on the 29th of the preceding month and immediately instructed a designated survey team of volunteers to inspect Kasreti village.
- The survey team arrived at Kasreti village, evaluated the ground conditions, and formulated a plan to drill a tubewell to a depth of approximately 1,200 feet to reach clean underground water reserves.
- The survey report was submitted to Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj, following which the formal approval was granted to begin field implementation under the Annapurna Muhim initiative.
- Under the explicit orders of Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj, heavy drilling rigs, machinery, 10-inch and 6-inch GI (Galvanized Iron) pipes, and all necessary boring equipment were dispatched and delivered to Kasreti village.
- Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj directed that the entire project—estimated to cost between ₹25 lakh and ₹30 lakh (₹2,500,000 to ₹3,000,000)—be executed completely free of cost, charging zero fees or donations from the villagers.
Technical Specifications and On-Site Commencement Event
The formal initiation of the drilling operations took place at the site of the village diggi, located 2 to 2.5 kilometers outside Kasreti village. The commencement event gathered local villagers, village elders, women, and the volunteer operational team.
The program commenced with a traditional Mangalacharan (prayer recitation) performed by the volunteer team alongside the villagers. Following the completion of the Mangalacharan, village elders, men, and approximately 400 to 500 women offered floral garlands at the divine portrait of Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj to express gratitude.
The drilling operations utilize heavy-duty machinery to install 10-inch and 6-inch GI pipes down to a target depth of 1,100 to 1,200 feet. Technical personnel on-site noted that sweet, drinkable water layers generally begin below 800 feet in this region, necessitating deeper drilling to guarantee high-quality potable water.
Project coordinators estimated that the entire drilling and setup operation will require approximately 10 to 12 days to reach completion.
Scope of Nationwide Welfare Campaigns Directed by Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj
During the site event, representatives from the volunteer team provided technical and structural details regarding the broader humanitarian efforts directed by Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj across India through the Annapurna Muhim, Kisan Mazdoor Bachao Abhiyan (Phase 2), Shuddh Peyjal Seva Abhiyan, and Pashudhan Bachao Shuddh Jal Pilao Abhiyan:
- Potable Water and Pipeline Services: Clean drinking water projects have been successfully completed in over 100 water-scarce villages. In the Julana region of Jind district, 5-kilometer-long water pipelines were laid to supply water to villages including Merda, Kila Mufargarh, and Rajgarh. Similar water infrastructure projects are operational across states such as Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Haryana, Punjab, and Jharkhand.
- Housing Construction Initiatives: Under the Annapurna Muhim, permanent concrete houses are constructed for homeless, poor, and destitute individuals within 10 to 15 days. These fully furnished homes feature 2 to 3 rooms, a kitchen, and a functional washroom.
- Monthly Ration Distribution: Impoverished, disabled, or orphaned families receive monthly household ration kits valued at ₹8,000 to ₹10,000 per month. This material assistance continues uninterrupted on a monthly basis until the families achieve financial independence.
- Healthcare and Educational Support: Patients suffering from severe illnesses without financial means are transported to medical facilities, provided full medical treatment, brought back home, and provided with monthly rations. Furthermore, complete higher education expenses are fully sponsored for children from economically disadvantaged households.

Resolution of Water Deprivation and Projected Impacts in Kasreti Village
The initiation of the 1,200-foot tubewell drilling in Kasreti village provides a structural resolution to a multi-generational water scarcity problem. Once operational, the tubewell will eliminate the daily burden on women and elderly residents of trekking 2 to 2.5 kilometers to fetch water from diggis or distant wells.
Families will no longer need to spend ₹100 to ₹150 daily to buy commercial drinking water. Access to clean, sweet groundwater will prevent skin diseases and other health issues caused by consuming saline water, while providing clean drinking water for local livestock and livestock management.
