    Nailwal Pali is located at a distance of 48 km towards the west from headquarters of Almora district, 6 km from Sult block and 158 kms from Dehradun, Capital of Uttarakhand. It is medium size village located in BHIKIYASAIN Tehsil of ALmora district. About 80 families reside in Nailwal Pali. Like any hilly site, it has an uneven topography that makes it difficult for people to walk especially at night. Furthermore, there are lots of wild animals roaming around, which make it very risky at night. Attacks by Leopards, tigers, bears, bores are very common. They do not have adequate electricity in the village to provide street lights. After various community meetings with the villagers, conducted by RASTA, the need for solar lights has been identified as a priority. With the support of RENEW power, RASTA has installed 12 lights in Nainwal Pali. During the implementation, the need for two more panels was felt and RASTA managed to procure two more lights and installed them at the required spot. It is learnt that the villagers are now not afraid of walking through the streets at night. Since homes are better lit, children can study late at night.
