The Kalgidhar Trust proudly announces that Bharat Heavy Electricals Limited, Maharatna Company (a Public Sector Undertaking),under the Golden Jubilee CSR Project has extended its support for 60 KW multiple-grid interactive SPV Power Plant to be installed in two rural Akal Academies ( 30 KW each in Akal Academy, Dadehar Sahib and Akal Academy, Teja Singh Wala of Tarn Taran district, Punjab).

The agreement in this regard was signed on 6thFebruary 2014 at BHEL office, Noida between BHEL –IVP Goindwal and The Kalgidhar Trust.

This agreement states that the power produced from these plants will be transferred to the main grid and extra power (beside Schools consumption) will be a great source of energy for the locals.

The Kalgidhar Trust – Baru Sahib is a non-profit charitable organisation focussed on providing quality education to fight against the alarming rise in drugs and alcohol abuse. With equal stress on Healthcare, Women Empowerment and Social Welfare, the organisation has been instrumental in the socio-economic uplift of the poor in the far-flung rural areas of North India.

Today the rural areas of Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Rajasthan, and the backward hilly areas of Himachal Pradesh and Punjab are dotted with 129 low cost CBSE Schools, providing modern, value-based education to around 60,000 students. The students are mostly from the deprived sections of society, admitted regardless of caste, creed, region, religion and social status. The aim is to build a total of 500 low cost schools to provide value-based education to all children at the village level.
