Glimpses of Installation in Selected Schools of Himachal Pradesh

Located in the North Eastern part of Himachal Pradesh, Spiti Valley, at an altitude of 12000 feet above sea level is literally the land between Tibet and India. The cold desert presents every possible challenge one can imagine in such a landscape. The NGO’s team reached the beautiful but forbidding location and installed the equipment in schools that don’t see many facilities and have been ravaged by last year’s floods as well.

Kinnaur, another wonderland known especially for its abundant and high-quality apples is also located at 13000 feet and was yet another location where our technical team managed to reach in our endeavour to provide equipment to schools. In the absence of vehicular traffic in the area, specially trained Sherpas, locally known as pitthus (human beings who carry luggage on their backs), had to be hired to carry the IFPs manually on their backs. A look at some of the most adventurous moments of this initiative!
