Corporate Social Responsibilities
SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITIES OF WBSETCL
WBSETCL has set up yet another shining example of discharging corporate social responsibility. While taking up construction of Kharagpur 400/220/132 EHV substation, 74.65 acres of land at Deoanmaro and Moulisole mouzas under Block-Kharagpur- 1, Paschim Mednipur was purchased by WBSETCL. The said land incidentally contained a pond whose water was extensively used by local villagers to meet their daily needs. Obviously once the substation is constructed there would not be any water available from this or nearby sources for daily use of the villagers.
Under the circumstances, WBSETCL considered it to be its responsibility to provide a new pond at nearby location so that the existing facility of the local people is continued.
Finally after round of discussion with the local people and also with the district adminstration, WBSETCL donated a substantial amount for digging of the new pond outside the project area. The district administration will ensure completion of this new pond from the fund release by WBSETCL.
WBSETCL has sponsored the construction of "Black top road from Gajbandh to Jeerat Hat" near Jeerat 400KV Substation. The work will be executed by "The Secretary", North 24 Parganas Zila Parisad, Rishi Bankim Sarani, Barasat, Kolkata-700124.
