Shivshet Check Dam

Each year village Shivshet in Peth taluka of Maharashtra, an Adivasi dominated hamlet, 74km from Nasik, "IVC's" home, suffers from acute water shortage post monsoon. Young men migrate to Nasik city in search of work, leaving the old, women folk, children and cattle to fend for themselves. Despite abundant rainfall, the runoff down a natural slope towards the Dang forest is almost instantaneous.

"IVC", with help from the local Rotary chapter, help build this RCC Dam, begun early 2019, it was ready before the onset of Monsoon rains. With the Dam full by mid August, the well immediately downstream was full too, perhaps for the first time.
Appropriately named "Ram Jal Bandh" by the villagers, it has a minimum storage capacity of 75 Lac(may go up to 1million) litres of fresh water, will satiate the needs of Shivshet & partially for the adjoining villages of Ambe, Mohadad, Ambedongar, Mhasgaon & Malegaon up until the next Monsoon.

Expansion

At Nasik Works

Begun in February’20, halted for 3 months due to Corona induced lock down, the work is going on at a fast clip and is slated for completion by end November’20.
New machines for manufacturing, some of it imported, shall begin arriving from October end. When completed, this will add to our throughput significantly and enable us to make a 25 ton valve (finished unit weight) in house.
