Amid a water crisis in Palghar, Maharashtra, a 14-year-old boy dug a well to alleviate his mother's troubles.

Teenager Pranav Salkar was inspired to dig the well after seeing his mother walk every day in the scorching sun to collect water.

The boy dug the well with his father's help in the front yard of the family's house in Dhavange Pada, near Kelve.

Pranav's parents work as labourers. The mother Darshana said, "There is relief regarding water now."

Pranav's father, Vinayak said, "I only helped him remove stones during the digging process. I did nothing else. It feels good to see this."
