Project Ground Up- a community engagement program was conducted by Levellers foundation team at Mhasali village, Chandrapur on 11th May 2026 with an aim to understand the life and housing conditions of the locals.
We believe a dialogue (sanvaad) is the first step to any transformation. With the mission to improve the living conditions of the community, our village walks and conversations is an attempt to go door to door and involve people's participation. It was indeed a very humbling experience at Mhasali to meet some age old dwellers and know first hand what it went into shaping this beautiful village.

Some of the highlights include-
- Back in the days the Water shortage issue was resolved by Late. Shri. Baliramji Gurpude, resident and former MLA by creating a lake and channeling water to the farms thus making the village truly sustainable and boosted farming and cattle rearing. Development thus led to formation of mills adding to livelihood sources.

- The village has close to 200 homes out of which 1/3rd are yet to be benefited from Gharkul schemes.

- From the essential amenities, while there is a school right in the heart of the village that has been instrumental in shaping the children however, the declining population and youth migrating to cities for job opportunities is reducing capacity to improve the living conditions and accelerate farming. The nearest hospital is only 40 KM away from the village, highlight the need for one in close proximity.

- People still love their mud houses for the comfort it gives and would opt for improvisation in the same over RCC homes due to rising temperatures and heat trap.

- The cemented pathways with no streetlights are a no brainer for discomfort during peak Summers and darkness during the night time.

- Although there is electricity in every home, there is frequent power cut which leads to unsafe situation for small kids and cattle due to its close proximity to forest and its wildlife and hence needs to be addressed.

- More importantly, the people here love their village and have a strong sense of community and belongingness thus helping each other which is a great Inspiration and when asked 'Gaon Jeevan

Panel discussion on , the rising concerns around it, the statistics and required measures were discussed as a part of our Salad for Soul 4.0 with the local citizens of

Some of the key takeaways from the discussion are-
AQI of Nagpur is far more than many other bigger cities, reason being rising industrialisation and dry weathers.

We have visible greenery but even more plantation measures are required to balance the infrastructure growth.

Major concerns around AQI are from the industrial dust particles construction cement dust etc.. which are not trapped by our nostrils and hence lead to health hazards.

Lets plant more Trees and battle rising AQI

This time the theme being AQI we spoke about what is AQI, its world wide scenario and case studies and what are some of the preventive measures. It was a delight to see citizens enjoy our healthy salad while also engage in meaningful discussion around our research topic.

We were also elated by people's response on our eco-friendly setup from the use of mud Pots, to wooden spoons and leaf bowls. 🌳 Lets keep doing our bit for mother Earth.

Building Nagpur Without Breaking It: Balancing Urban Infrastructure Growth with Environmental Sustainability by LEVELLERS FOUNDATION

Levellers foundation is an architects' group focusing on design aid and research oriented voice. As a part of our Ground Up- a community engagement program and ongoing Tree plantation initiative in Ravi Nagar Vasahat, we are conducting an on ground survey from the neighborhood citizens on understanding their take on rising infrastructure rate and environmental sustainability thus infusing people's participation in our study.

Project brief- Nagpur is witnessing rapid urban transformation driven by large-scale infrastructure projects such as metro expansion, fly-overs and real estate development. While this growth is essential for economic mobility and urban efficiency. However, it has also intensified, manifesting in declining green cover, raising urban heat, pressure on water systems and loss of ecological buffers. The research seeks to examine the pace and nature of infrastructure growth in Nagpur and critically assess its environmental implications. Led by Levellers Foundation, an architects’ organization with active on ground practice, the study aims to explore how cities like Nagpur can strike a long-term balance between infrastructure development and environmental sustainability.
