Tap At A Time, This Good Samaritan Fixes Leaks

One of the main reasons for water shortages in India are leaks. So this man took it upon himself to fix it, one tap at a time.

00:00We have a free plumbing service, if there is any leakage in your house, like a tap, toilet or bathroom, we can fix it for free.

00:30I'm trying to motivate people just because they think that only a few drops are dripping

00:58from a faulty faucet, so they consider it as a normal thing, that only a few drops are

01:05dripping, so they don't care.

01:08See, in one second, if one drop drips and is wasted, then in one month, 1000 litres of water goes down the drain.

01:38Before 2007, I didn't even have this idea, that when I used to tell people to fix the

01:53faucet, the water is dripping, it is being wasted, so they used to say that only a few

01:59drops are going, so I didn't have any answer.

02:02Secondly, they used to say that there is no plumber for small jobs.

02:32Some people, they used to bang door on our face, now she stands in front, she rings the

02:50bell, door opens, she gives a broad smile and the door opens totally.

03:14See, when you start some social project with total transparency, with total honesty, if

03:28you want to do social service, then remember, God becomes your fundraiser.

03:34Simple.

03:35I have never asked anyone for money.

04:05It's so simple.

04:20I say, if you don't want to do it for water, do something for the birds.

04:25At least keep water in the window.

04:28Anyone can do this much.

04:31If you can't do it for the birds, then at least plant a tree somewhere and see if the

04:37tree is growing or not.
