The initiative aimed to raise awareness and promote the adoption of safety protocols within its power distribution network and various operational sites, as stated by Adani Electricity, which is the leading power distribution firm serving more than three million customers in Mumbai.
To support this goal, employees of Adani Electricity took part in workshops organized by the safety team of the company.
Additionally, in a bid to enhance students’ learning experiences and improve educational outcomes, Adani Electricity and the Adani Foundation recently celebrated the third edition of their annual ‘Utthan Utsav’ event.
This initiative has significantly improved the educational results of over 25,000 students across 83 BMC schools located in regions such as Malad, Dahisar, Borivali, Chembur, and Kurla, according to the company.
‘Utthan’ involves adopting government primary schools, mentoring ‘Priya Vidyarthis’ (progressive learners), tackling dropout rates, and collaborating for staff development.
