It didn't take long for the water quality monitoring report to declare the well fit for use.

At the completion ceremony, the villagers took containers and lined up in front of the water pipe, with some villagers eager to taste it, cupping the water into their mouths with their hands. The village has finally broken the curse of being "water trapped" and its future has been changed for generations to come. Generations that will-thanks to plans to install water pipes running from the well-enjoy clean water directly in their homes.
