This site #PW212 is in Bajetpur of village of Baduria block of N 24 Parganas district. Narayan Mondol donated this site for the community.

This year there is a delay in the construction due to the following reasons:
1. during april and may no village meetings could be held because of assembly election in the state election;
2. many sites were selected and village meetings were held several months before the construction. Many sites were cancelled because of pipelines that the local panchayet came to know about later. In fact sites in two blocks, Haringhata and Bashirhat have been replaced by sites in Baduria and Swarupnagar.
3. During pilot tests due to non availability of water bearing sand layer and family or neigborly disputes by now 22 sites been cancelled.
4. At every new site village meetings are being held that leads to delay too.
