One of the most significant factors affecting the safety and well-being of women and families living in villages is the lack of adequate lighting after sunset. With a unique program like RatriChaupal, Signify will enable women to participate more actively in their local communities, giving them more time topursueeducation, social and financial literacy programs and community involvement in a safe environment”

Speaking at the launch event, Shyam Sundar Bhatt, Chairman, ShrushtiSevaSamiticommented, “It has been a great association working with Signify tocreate this unique and impactful RatriChaupalprogram.
