Ratri Thairav of DC: A Transformative Visit to Nuh District Villages

On March 19, Deputy Commissioner (DC) Vishram Kumar Meena, along with Assistant Commissioner Anirudh Yadav and Vijay Pratap Singh, Superintendent of Police, Nuh, visited the Uleta Pond. Members of the Village Development Committee and key villagers were also present during the visit. The pond had been rejuvenated by the S M Sehgal Foundation in 2024–25 under a CSR-supported effort.

As part of the “Ratri Thairav Yojana,” which requires each DC to spend one night in a village every month, Uleta and Manuwas were selected. During his visit, the DC spoke briefly with the S M Sehgal Foundation team about the project and its details. He also met with the Village Development Committee (VDC) members to understand their role before and after the project.

The officials toured the track around the pond and praised the efforts of the Foundation and the community.

Later, the DC visited the Government High School in Manuwas. There, he appreciated the transformation work, which included classroom repairs, mess construction, and building a Swachhata Vahini. He stayed overnight at the school and had discussions with VDC members, Panchayati Raj Institution representatives, and key residents of Manuwas to hear their thoughts and concerns.

The next day, VDC members from Kaliaka village invited the DC to visit their school and pond. The DC expressed satisfaction with the development work carried out by the Sehgal Foundation through CSR support. At the school, improvements like an open classroom, a stage, and a Swachhata Vahini were made. Other repairs were also completed.

While visiting the Government Primary School in Kaliaka, the DC showed interest in the kitchen garden set up on the campus. A Mid-Day Meal worker shared that vegetables grown during the Kharif season were used to prepare meals for the students.

During the visit, VDC member Bhim Singh said, “Our school was close to shutting down. Poor infrastructure led to low enrollment and rising dropout rates. But after the transformation, we have seen a big rise in student numbers, especially among girls.”
