Malakpur village of Amritsar district of Punjab was included among the most affected areas due to the severe flood that came this year. At many places, water up to 8 to 10 feet had filled in the fields, due to which the entire paddy crop had been destroyed. The conditions were so frightening that no possibility of the upcoming sowing of wheat was visible. Farmer families had broken down economically, the crisis of fodder for animals was deepening, and water had entered from the village paths to the houses. Public life had completely come to a halt and worry and helplessness were clearly visible on every face.

At the government level some efforts were definitely made, but they proved insufficient in front of this huge crisis. For many days the villagers kept waiting, but the situation remained the same. In such difficult times, the villagers of Malakpur received information about the works of Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj, where flood-affected villages were being given relief along with permanent solutions. This was the moment when the villagers saw a new ray of hope.
The Panchayat reached at the feet of Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj carrying the villagers’ prayer
The Panch, Sarpanch and responsible villagers of Malakpur village collectively decided that now as a last hope, a prayer should be placed at the feet of Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj. From the side of the Panchayat, formally a prayer letter was sent, in which the demand for 9400 feet 8-inch pipe, 20 HP motors, heavy wires, fitting accessories and other necessary equipment was placed to remove water from the village.
The villagers said that the fields had turned into marshland, due to continuous standing water in the land the risk of disease had increased, and if water was not removed in time, then the entire coming agricultural year would be ruined. The Panchayat representatives said in one voice that if Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj provides assistance, then Malakpur village can be saved.
Immediate Assistance by Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj
The villagers had no idea that such quick and such organized action would take place on their prayer. Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj gave immediate orders for assistance under the Annapurna Muhim and within just a few days a large convoy of trucks reached Malakpur village. This was not only relief material, but a new life for those farmers who were standing on the edge of despair.
This assistance included 9400 feet high-quality 8-inch pipeline, powerful 20 HP motors, cables and starters to operate the motors, complete fitting materials such as nut-bolts and joints to connect the pipes. In addition, other necessary items were also given, so that farmers would not have to go to the market and face trouble for any item.
The villagers said that they received more and better quality material than what they had demanded. This entire assistance was delivered directly to the village without any fee, without any condition and without any show.

Atmosphere of Happiness and Relief in Malakpur Village
As soon as the trucks filled with relief material reached the village, a wave of happiness spread in Malkpur. Women, elderly people and farmers all came out. After many months, smiles were seen on the faces of the people. The villagers said that they had completely broken down, but Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj gave them the courage to stand again.
Many farmers said emotionally that receiving such a big help so quickly is nothing less than a miracle. Panchayat members said that if this assistance had not been received on time, then the entire area would have remained waterlogged for a long time and the question of wheat sowing would have ended completely.
Special Feature of Annapurna Muhim: Permanent Solution Along with Relief
The Annapurna Muhim of Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj is not limited only to immediate relief, but it is based on permanent solutions. Clear instructions were given for Malakpur village that the pipelines should be permanently buried in the ground, so that in future if a situation of waterlogging arises, water can be removed immediately.
Along with this, to keep the progress of water drainage transparent, a monitoring system was arranged in three stages — first the condition of water-filled fields, then the condition after water removal and finally the condition when the crop is flourishing. This ensures that the given assistance is used for the right purpose and the proper use of donations is recorded with complete honesty.
Condition of Beneficiary Families and Affected Area
Almost the entire agricultural area of Malakpur village was under the grip of flood. There were dozens of families whose livelihood depended completely on farming. With this assistance, not only has the hope of livelihood returned to the homes of farmers, but the opportunity for production in the fields is also being created again.
The villagers say that now they have such a permanent arrangement available, which will keep them safe from problems like floods even in the coming years. This assistance is not limited only to the present crisis, but has also become the foundation of future security.
New Beginning and Spread of Trust in Malakpur
Today there is a positive atmosphere in Malakpur village. Everywhere the same discussion is that now the water will be completely removed, the fields will dry up and wheat sowing will take place on time. The people who had gone to relatives after leaving their homes due to flood are now preparing to return. The hope of ploughing the fields has awakened again.
The villagers say that this is not just relief, but the reconstruction of their lives. This assistance done by Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj under the Annapurna Muhim has become a new beginning for Malakpur village.
Message of Service
Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj proves that when service is selfless and reaches on time, then even the biggest crisis becomes small. This mission of Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj is becoming a symbol of hope, trust and stability not only in Malakpur, but in hundreds of flood-affected villages.
