Dana India installed 30 solar-powered streetlights at Alandi Phata Chowk, Chakan in Pune. This improved lighting enhances visibility and reduces accident risks for about 3,600 villagers and travelers. To improve safety, Dana India added road safety signs and metal barricades in Chakan’s industrial area to control traffic and protect pedestrians. These measures will benefit around 2.5 lakh commuters daily and support Goal 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities, and Goal 17: Partnerships for the Goals. The initiative supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), specifically Goal 7, 11, 13 and 17.

At Dana India, we are committed to driving meaningful change and enhancing the quality of life for the people of Pune while supporting the global sustainability agenda”.
