In the idyllic village of Manekhind, situated in the heart of Shahapur, a transformative Checkdam project has reshaped the agricultural landscape, fostering sustainability and prosperity. Completed in the year 2019-2020, this initiative, sponsored by Laxmi Civil Engineering with a budget of 6.82 Lacs, has become a symbol of water conservation, benefitting the community in various ways. With an area under cultivation spanning 6 acres, the project has not only stored 10 Lac Litres of water but has also revitalized agricultural practices.

The success of the Checkdam project in Manekhind extends beyond the realm of water conservation, as it serves as a lifeline for the community’s domestic use and cattle. The strategic placement of the checkdam ensures a reliable water supply, addressing the immediate needs of the residents and contributing to the well-being of their livestock. This multi-faceted approach underscores the project’s commitment to holistic community development.

Laxmi Civil Engineering’s sponsorship and the collaborative effort of the community have resulted in the successful completion of this endeavor. As a completed project, the Checkdam stands as a testament to the power of localized initiatives in shaping the destiny of rural communities. Manekhind serves as an inspiring example, demonstrating how thoughtful water management can lead to sustainable agriculture, improved livelihoods, and a resilient future for the village and its residents.
