BUDHAL SEPTEMBER 04:-In a commendable humanitarian effort, the 237 Battalion of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), stationed in Budhal, has stepped forward to aid victims of the recent landslides in Kangoota village by distributing solar emergency lights to displaced families.

The devastating landslides left several homes completely destroyed, forcing residents to seek refuge in temporary shelters set up by the CRPF. Recognizing the challenges faced by these families—especially during night hours—officials from the battalion provided solar-powered emergency lighting systems to help restore a sense of safety and dignity.

“Lighting is a basic necessity, especially in times of displacement. We hope this small gesture brings some relief and comfort to the affected families,” a CRPF spokesperson stated.

The distribution of solar lights is seen as a vital step toward enhancing nighttime visibility in makeshift shelters, which often lack electricity and pose added risks to vulnerable populations.

Local residents expressed their gratitude for the timely assistance. Many shared that the lights not only help them carry out basic tasks after sunset but also offer reassurance and a sense of normalcy during these difficult times.

This initiative is part of the CRPF’s ongoing commitment to serve and protect communities, particularly during natural disasters and emergencies. The force continues to provide logistical and moral support to those in need across remote and disaster-prone regions.

As recovery efforts continue in Kangota, the CRPF’s proactive approach stands as a shining example of community-focused service.
