Project Location: Khanapur village, Balanagar Mandal, Mahaboobnagar District, Telangana, India
About the Project:   Khanapur is one of the villages in the Balanagar Mandal where there are many people who are addicted to alcohol and tobacco. They moved in to many deadly deceases due to these habits. Some practical awareness along with examples needs to be provided to bring self-control for them. They also have places where we can install water tanks which can improve their living conditions.
