SRK Knowledge Foundation (SRKKF), the community welfare arm of diamond manufacturing company Shree Ramkrishna Exports Pvt. Ltd. (SRK), announced plans to install residential 750KW rooftop solar systems at the homes of 750 martyred soldiers and unsung heroes across India.

Celebrating 75 years of India’s Independence, SRKKF, under the leadership of Founder-Chairman Govind Dholakia, organised an event titled ‘Rashtra ki Roshni’ at SRK Sports Park, Surat. The parade escorted the chief guest, Commandant Chetan Kumar Cheetah of the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF).

Inspired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s initiative of celebrating 75 years of India’s glory with the ‘Azadi ka Amrit Mahotsav’ campaign, SRKKF, during ‘Rashtra ki Roshni’, pledged to continue helping and empowering the affected families of unsung heroes and committed to the installation of residential solar rooftop at their homes.

The initiative is said to impact more than 3000 lives while addressing the needs of energy day and night. Once complete, this would be a pioneering initiative by a community welfare organisation. The 750 KW rooftop solar systems will be used to power 750 homes. With this, the residents will be able to save Rs. 2,000 per month over 25 years.

SRKKF is accelerating progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and this initiative is a small step towards a green future among the various other initiatives.
