SAI Life Sciences Completes Restoration of Historic Stepwell 
Sai Life Sciences, in collaboration with the Society for Advancement of Human Endeavours (SAHE), completed the restoration of an historic stepwell dating back to the 17th century at the Sri Venugopala Swamy temple premises, located in Manchirevula, Hyderabad, India.  

The Manchirevula Stepwell Restoration Project was undertaken with the dual purpose of preserving cultural heritage and addressing critical environmental challenges, particularly water scarcity. With the capacity to collect 300,000 liters of water, the stepwell will in time, improve the water table levels for the surrounding areas and support the local ecosystem.
