The small village of Ladvi, located in the Mandi Adampur tehsil of Hisar district in Haryana, had been going through a severe crisis for the past two to three months—one that robbed local farmers of both sleep and hope. The village stadium, fields, streets, and areas around homes were completely filled with water. The condition of the village had become like an island—water everywhere and helpless people in the middle.

Standing crops in the fields slowly began to rot. Months of farmers’ hard work were being washed away before their eyes. There was a shortage of fodder for animals, children were unable to attend school, and even the village dispensary had been affected.
Elderly villagers and farmers said that for the past two months they had been running from one administrative office to another—sometimes the ADC office, sometimes the DDPO, and sometimes trying to meet ministers. Everywhere they received only assurances, not solutions. Gradually the situation became so dire that many farmers began to wonder how their families would survive if the crops were lost.
One farmer said,
“We were watching our hard work drown before our eyes. It felt as if we might soon have to beg for food.”
It was at this moment that the village panchayat decided to take a different path as their last hope.
When Hope from the Administration Faded, the Village Appealed at the Saint’s Door
After continuous disappointment, the village panchayat and some responsible villagers decided to take their problem to Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj. A formal proposal was prepared by the panchayat and a request for assistance was sent. The villagers had hope, but perhaps no one believed that help would arrive so quickly.
However, as soon as the village’s appeal reached the ashram located in Barwala, the relief process began. Within a few days, a large convoy loaded with relief material arrived at the village boundary. Seeing this scene, the villagers were both surprised and emotional.
Under this relief initiative, the village was provided with an 11,000-foot-long 8-inch pipeline and two 10-horsepower motors. Along with these, starters, cables, connections, and all necessary equipment were also provided so that the villagers would not have to purchase anything from outside. For the villagers, these were not just machines—they were hope for their future.
The Condition of Affected Families: Water in the Fields, Worry in Homes
Over the past months, the situation of Ladvi’s farmers had become extremely difficult. Waterlogging around the village had increased so much that standing crops were almost completely destroyed.
Farmer Rajesh Lakhera explains:
“Our entire farmland was submerged in floodwater. Nearly 100 percent of the crops in the surrounding area were ruined. We thought even wheat sowing would not be possible. But when the pipes and motors arrived, hope returned for the first time.”
Another villager said that the people of the village had approached officials many times, but every time they were asked to wait.
“We had been going around the administration for two months. No solution came from anywhere. We felt that perhaps no one would listen to us now.”
Women in the village were equally worried. In many homes, fodder for animals was running out, and children’s studies were being affected. In such circumstances, the arrival of relief material felt nothing less than a miracle for the village.
The Relief Convoy: Trucks Filled with Pipes, Motors, and Hope
The day the relief material arrived, the atmosphere in the village was completely different. Seeing the trucks loaded with long pipelines and heavy motors at the village boundary brought tears of joy to the villagers’ eyes. This relief was not temporary but a major step toward a permanent solution for the village.
The volunteers clarified that this equipment would remain permanent property of the village. The panchayat was given responsibility to install the pipes properly in the ground and maintain the drainage system in the future. This would not only eliminate the current waterlogging but also ensure that rainwater could be drained quickly in the future.
The Village Welcome: Waves of Emotion Amid Drumbeats
When the relief convoy entered the village, the entire Ladvi village came out onto the streets. Drums echoed through the air, and people stood with flower garlands to welcome the convoy. Many villagers removed their shoes and slippers as a mark of respect and walked barefoot during the welcome.
One villager said emotionally:
“We could not believe that such great help would come from just one request. We wondered whether we would receive help or not, but Guruji opened His treasure for us.”
The village panchayat also presented a traditional turban as a mark of respect. According to villagers, the turban symbolized not just honor but deep gratitude.
Discussion of the Service Works of Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj
During this entire event, one word was repeatedly heard among the villagers—service and compassion. Villagers said that at a time when many people merely display religion for show, any organization that truly comes forward to help the needy becomes an inspiration for society.
The relief campaign run by Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj has reached flood-affected villages in several states. Under this initiative, farmers are being provided with drainage systems, relief materials, and other assistance. Many villagers said that this service is not merely financial help but an example of responsibility toward society.
Responsibility and Transparency: A Letter Given to the Village Panchayat
Along with the relief material, an important letter was also handed over to the village panchayat. The letter clearly stated that it would be the panchayat’s responsibility to remove the water within a specified time using the provided pipes and motors.
If the water was not drained and crop sowing could not take place, the village would not receive assistance in the future. To ensure transparency, drone videos of the village’s current condition were also recorded. Additional videos will be taken after the water is drained and again when the crops are ready, to verify that the relief resources were used properly.
The purpose of this system was to ensure that every resource given in donation and service is used correctly.
Collective Responsibility of the Village
The village panchayat signed the letter on behalf of the entire village and assured that they would responsibly carry out the drainage work.
The Sarpanch said:
“We will make full use of the pipes and motors that Guruji has given us. We will drain all the water from the village and ensure that farmers can sow their crops.”
Villagers also collectively pledged to cooperate in this work.
Social Impact: A New Unity Born from Crisis
This incident also changed the social atmosphere of the village. Where people were once drowned in despair, they now show new energy. Farmers have begun looking toward their fields with hope once again.
Many youths said that with a permanent drainage system now in place, such a situation will not arise again in the future. Village elders say that this crisis taught them one lesson: when there is true Sant, even the biggest problems can be solved.
Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj — A True Saint
The story of Ladvi is not just the story of one village. It reflects the pain felt by every farmer when the fruits of their hard work drown in water.
Today Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj has provided donations worth crores to thousands of helpless, homeless, and hungry people, as well as to farmers. He is the only saint who does not take donations but gives them. With a heart as vast as the Himalayas, He has always stood with truth and supported everyone without discrimination of caste, status, or social division.
He is a true Tatvadarshi Saint, because in history such extraordinary acts are rare and unmatched. Society will always remain grateful to Him.
Today, in the fields of Ladvi, not only water is being drained—new hope is being sown, all by the blessings of Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj.
