Development Acitivity


The drinking water problem in Lohgaon was becoming serious. People were facing major difficulties in obtaining water for daily use. To solve these problems, my husband, Pritam Dada Khandve, and I organized a protest march with the villagers. This march permanently resolved the villagers' water problem.

My husband, Pritam Dada Khandve, and I took the initiative to set up a pumping station to ensure proper water supply for the citizens of Lohgaon. On this occasion, my husband, Pritam Dada Khandve, donated the necessary machinery, iron pipes, water motor, etc., at his own expense, and solved the water problem for the citizens of Lohgaon. While serving as the Deputy Sarpanch of Lohgaon, my husband, Pritam Dada Khandve, solved the drinking water problem by digging borewells in seven locations.

Maintaining a clean environment is crucial for good human health. My husband, Pritam Dada, carried out his work with the motto that cleanliness is also a form of social service. While working as the Deputy Sarpanch of Lohgaon, he focused on waste management. Garbage collection vehicles were introduced for door-to-door collection, and as a result, the village became cleaner. Similarly, through the Gram Panchayat, Pritam Dada organized a village cleanliness awareness rally for waste management. He himself participated in public sanitation work and cleaned the streets.

The villagers of Lohgaon, a village sanctified by the footsteps of Sant Tukaram Maharaj and Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, wished to erect a monument symbolizing devotion and strength. It was decided to raise funds for the construction of this monument through public contributions from the village. My husband, Pritam Dada Khandve, initiated this fundraising effort by donating ₹5,55,555.

Lohgaon is the maternal village of Jagadguru Sant Tukaram Maharaj. Moreover, Sant Tukaram Maharaj performed most of his kirtans (devotional discourses) in Lohgaon. As a tribute to this history, when the villagers decided to build a grand temple for Saint Tukaram Maharaj, my father-in-law, Prataprao Khandve, and my husband, Pritamdada Khandve, provided substantial funding. Subsequently, the temple trust, chaired by my father-in-law Prataprao Khandve, completed the renovation work.

Through the initiative of my father-in-law, Prataprao Khandve, a pilgrim's rest house owned by the villagers of Lohgaon was built in Pandharpur. My husband, Pritam Khandve, personally contributed ₹1 crore to this project. In addition, the Tukaram Maharaj Temple Trust, chaired by Prataprao Khandve, completed the construction of the pilgrim's rest house in Pandharpur. During the Pandharpur pilgrimage, 5,000 devotees stay at this rest house, and their meals are also provided by my husband, Pritam Khandve.

The centuries-old Uttareswar Mahadev Temple in the village had fallen into disrepair. The villagers resolved to renovate the temple. For this, my husband, Pritamdada Khandve, donated ₹2.55 lakh.

When my husband, Pritam Dada Khandve, was the Deputy Sarpanch of Lohgaon, he took note of the lack of basic amenities and decided to undertake development work accordingly. My husband, Pritam Dada, set a new record in Lohgaon by undertaking and completing road construction projects.

While serving as Deputy Sarpanch, my husband, Pritam Dada Khandve, built roads worth ₹30 lakh in Sant Nagar, Lohgaon, using his own funds. These roads still stand today as a testament to the excellent quality of work.

During my husband Pritam Dada Khandve's tenure as Deputy Sarpanch, extensive work was done on road development in Lohgaon, including the construction of a large number of underground drainage systems. This resulted in proper management of wastewater. Due to increasing urbanization in Uttareswar Nagar, it was necessary to develop the infrastructure there. Keeping this in mind, my husband, Pritam Dada Khandve, completed the road construction work in Uttareswar Nagar during his tenure as Deputy Sarpanch. Similarly, the installation of streetlights was also carried out.

During my husband Pritam Dada Khandve's tenure as Deputy Sarpanch, a road development project was implemented in Lohgaon, which included the installation of 3,000 streetlights.

During my husband Pritam Dada Khandve's tenure as Deputy Sarpanch, a closed drainage system was constructed on the Lohgaon road. Similarly, footpaths were constructed in high-traffic areas.

During my husband Pritam Dada Khandve's tenure as Deputy Sarpanch, the development work of the Lohgaon to Dhanori road was completed. During my husband Pritam Dada Khandve's tenure as Deputy Sarpanch, concrete roads were also constructed in the Sathe Vasti area of ​​Lohgaon. Khandve Nagar was emerging as a new suburb of Lohgaon. At that time, it was necessary to provide basic infrastructure there. When Pritam Dada Khandve was the Deputy Sarpanch, he undertook works such as concrete roads, streetlights, an underground drainage system, and provision of drinking water in this area.

While serving as a member of the Zilla Parishad (District Council), Prataprao Khandve undertook development works in Dehu.
