  • I orchestrated the conceptualization, acquisition, and construction of a cutting-edge water purifier system, meticulously designed to proffer pristine and potable water across the sprawling expanse of New Delhi.

Evidently, my unwavering dedication was met with resounding acclaim as I was bestowed with esteemed accolades including the esteemed The British School Leadership Award and the distinguished Environment Awareness and Sustainability Award. Additionally, my contributions to this noble cause earned me the coveted opportunity to partake in the distinguished Pramerica Awards as well.• My unwavering passion for fostering societal betterment reached its zenith when I was invited to deliver an impassioned oration at the renowned TEDx Youth, TBS, under the compelling title "What if your water wasn't safe to drink?" I wholeheartedly implore you to witness the profundity of this discourse by following this link: (https://www.ted.com/talks/krish_walia_what_if_your_water_wasn_t_safe_to_drink?language=en).
