11 years of operations, 11 villages to be rescued; SpiceJet pledges to help draught-hit Maharashtra

Budget airline SpiceJet is going to complete 11 years of its operations, an occasion the celebration of which would include supplying nearly 71,500 litres water to 11 draught-hit villages in the Latur district of Maharashtra, in partnership with an NGO called AnybodyCanHelp.

"At a time when the state is combating severe drought conditions, SpiceJet has stepped in to pledge help and relief to 11 villages in Latur, an initiative to commemorate its 11 years of flying," said an official statement from the airline.

The airline and the NGO will collectively work so that nearly 71,500 litres of water can be supplied to these 11 villages of the Marathawada region per day.

Water tankers for this cause will be assigned by SpiceJet, and will continue working for one month, from May 23 till June 23.
