Police campuses in Bengaluru to have 590 Percolation Wells
Bengaluru, September 12th, 2024: Mphasis and United Way Bengaluru officially announced the launch of the “One Billion Drops” campaign at five police campuses in Bengaluru, including CAR (City Armed Reserve) North, Karnataka State Reserved Police 9th Battalion, Centre for Counter-Terrorism, CAR Headquarters, and KSRP 1st Battalion. This year, 590 percolation wells will be constructed across these locations.
The event was attended by the Commissioner of Police, Bangalore City, Mr. B Dayananda, who commended the initiative for its significant contribution to Bengaluru’s water sustainability.
The “One Billion Drops” initiative addresses climate-change-related issues through percolation wells designed to capture rainwater at the point of impact. This approach reduces surface runoff, prevents floods, and conserves water by slowing its flow. The campaign is pivotal in restoring Bengaluru’s water resources, replenishing groundwater, and maintaining soil moisture to support the city’s green cover.
“I wholeheartedly appreciate the proactive support of Mphasis and United Way of Bengaluru for coming forward to make our police campuses water-neutral through their CSR initiatives. Your commitment to sustainability is a shining example of community policing in action. Together, we are not only ensuring a greener future for our personnel and the community but also setting a benchmark for responsible governance. Thank you for your invaluable partnership in this noble endeavour,” said B. Dayananda, Commissioner of Police, Bengaluru City.
“Our ongoing partnership with United Way Bengaluru has empowered us to address global environmental challenges like climate change while making significant strides in reviving the state’s biodiversity. The ‘One Billion Drops’ campaign remains a powerful initiative in rainwater conservation and sustainability, demonstrating our commitment to a greener future,” said Deepa Nagaraj, Senior Vice President and Head – ESG & CSR, Sparkle Innovation Ecosystem and Communications
“Rooted in a community-driven approach, the ‘One Billion Drops’ campaign represents a scalable and replicable model that promotes ecological sustainability and resilience against climate change. By harnessing the power of collaboration between corporate entities, NGOs and government bodies, this initiative is setting a new standard for climate action and water conservation,” said Rajesh Krishnan, CEO of United Way Bengaluru.
This initiative aligns seamlessly with the Prime Minister’s National Water Mission initiative, “Catch the Rain, Where it Falls, When it Falls.” Each percolation well can conserve up to 128,000 litres of rainwater annually, directly enhancing groundwater levels in their respective catchment areas.
Once known as the Garden City, Bengaluru now faces the harsh realities of India’s climate crisis, dealing with severe groundwater depletion, erratic rainfall, and a shrinking green cover. In response to these growing challenges, Mphasis, through its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) efforts, has partnered with United Way Bengaluru to drive an impactful campaign called “One Billion Drops”.
Since 2022, Mphasis has supported the creation of 1,338 percolation wells across Bengaluru, including in major parks and the iconic Lalbagh Botanical Garden. These percolation wells can conserve approximately 175,284 kiloliters of rainwater annually, making a significant contribution to the city’s water resources and environmental health. These wells have benefitted 251,000 members of the community. In the coming years, the goal is to reach out to approximately 225,000 beneficiaries by creating 1200 wells by 2026.

The air crackles with anticipation. Amidst the whispers and excitement of friends and family, the rustle of silk and the gleam of intricate embroidery come alive. She adorns herself in her wedding attire, the delicate chime of bangles and the sparkle of jewels adding to the symphony of colour and craftsmanship that speaks of tradition and celebration. Every detail is meticulously chosen, a symphony of textures and colours. But one final touch remains – the fragrance that will become a part of her wedding day, a whispered echo of laughter, stolen glances, and promises under a starlit sky. Just like the perfect wedding dress, the right perfume lingers long after the celebration, a sensory snapshot of the exchange of vows. Choosing a wedding fragrance is a deeply personal decision, allowing brides to express their individuality and create a lasting sensory memory of their special day.
The timeless romance of florals, the modern vibrancy of citrus, or the captivating allure of amber and spice, here are some trending notes that will make your wedding day unforgettable.

It creates a romantic, floral harmony with notes of tiger orchid, jasmine, tuberose and sandalwood making it ideal for the wedding day for the bride.
2. Vibrant Citrus: Fresh lemon tones are especially lovely for outdoor ceremonies or a day wedding. The bright and energizing qualities of bergamot, lemon, and grapefruit give the scent a vibrant and vivacious vibe. Citrus notes are an excellent option for a modern bride because they can offer a refreshing contrast to the more conventional flower and woody ingredients. ITC Engage’s Verona Perfume offers a citrus and fruity note, creating a refreshing and invigorating scent.
3. Amber & Spice: Warm amber and delicate spices are going to be popular in 2024 to provide a hint of sensuality and depth. While spices like cardamom or cinnamon add a delicate note of intrigue, amber adds a rich, golden warmth. These notes are ideal for producing a fragrance that clings and makes an impact. ITC Engage’s Amber Hues Perfume for Men which has fruity and ambery notes is fresh modern fougere and is ideal for such special occasions.
ITC Engage’s brand ambassador Tara Sutaria advises bride-to-be to invest in a long-lasting fragrance. “I believe your choice of fragrance is an extension of your personal style, and your wedding day is the perfect time to choose a scent that makes you feel confident, radiant, and most yourself as you embark on a new and exciting journey with the one you love. It’s about creating a sensory memory that’s uniquely yours. The ITC Engage Verona offers a timeless scent with a delicate floral and citrusy touch that is most charming and elegant when worn.

Golden Growth Fund Secures Rs25 Crore in First Closing of the Fund to Acquire a Prime Land Parcel in South Delhi
New Delhi, 10th September, 2024: Golden Growth Fund (GGF), a leading Category 2 Alternate Investment Fund (AIF), has successfully secured ₹25 crore in its first funding round, which concluded in mid-August. This initial capital infusion will be used to acquire a prime land parcel in South Delhi, marking a significant milestone for GGF. The acquisition is the first project under GGF’s strategic plan to develop high-end residential properties in the region, further supported by Grovy India Limited, which has completed over 100 real estate developments in Delhi.
Ankur Jalan, CEO of Golden Growth Fund, stated, “This first closing of the fund is a significant step forward in our mission to transform the luxury real estate landscape in Delhi. Our commitment to acquiring and developing premium land parcels in South Delhi is now being realized, and we anticipate that our ongoing funding efforts will further solidify our position as a leader in the market.”
Golden Growth Fund distinguishes itself in the field of alternative investment funds by focusing exclusively on real estate opportunities in the Delhi region, particularly in South and Lutyens’ Delhi. As a Category 2 AIF, GGF operates under the regulatory oversight of SEBI, ensuring a high level of transparency and security for its investors.
Notably, Golden Growth Fund’s focus on brownfield projects offers a distinct advantage over other realty funds, which primarily target greenfield developments. GGF’s project turnaround time is anticipated to be between 15-18 months, significantly shorter than the 60-72 months typically seen in greenfield projects. Additionally, GGF’s projects face no time escalation, construction cost escalation, or government regulation uncertainties, unlike the high risks associated with other realty funds. Furthermore, the infrastructure surrounding GGF’s projects is fully developed, reducing sale uncertainty and price volatility, which remain high in greenfield projects.
Golden Growth Fund is dedicated to transforming real estate fortunes in Delhi by equipping investors with actionable insights and flexible investment options. This commitment to transparency, coupled with a focus on high-end residential development in prime locations, positions GGF as a leader in the market.
The ₹25 crore raised in the first closing is just the beginning, as GGF plans to close additional funding rounds in the coming months. This capital will be crucial in supporting GGF’s ongoing and future projects, which aim to transform the luxury real estate market in South Delhi. With multiple proposals already in the pipeline, GGF is set to play a key role in reshaping the region’s real estate landscape.
Looking ahead, Golden Growth Fund anticipates continued growth and expansion as it finalizes additional funding rounds and explores new investment opportunities. The leadership team, with decades of experience in real estate and investment management, is committed to executing its projects with precision and delivering superior value to its stakeholders. GGF’s strategic focus on acquiring and developing prime land parcels in South Delhi highlights its commitment to driving high returns for its investors while contributing to the transparency of the region’s luxury real estate market.
