Navjot Swahini: The first set of hand washing machines leaves refugee camps in Iraq

-

 

Navjot Swahni started this project in 2018

 The first batch of washing machines has been sent to a refugee camp in northern Iraq. The machine was developed by a Sikh student.

Navjot Swahni, a former student at Bath University, was inspired by a salad maker in 2018 to start making hand washing machines.

Since then, volunteers and tradesmen have helped build the machine to complete the cost of building the machine.

Navjot Swahini says he is very proud to have built this machine successfully.

He said 70% of the world's population did not have access to electric washing machines.

With financial support from Care International, an international charity, they are working on a program to build 75,000 washing and drying machines for the next three years and distribute them to the poor in ten countries, including Lebanon, Kenya and India. Is

Sohni came up with the idea of ​​making a handheld machine after living in India for a few days after quitting his engineering job when he saw a woman Divya washing clothes in her neighborhood.

The machine can also be easily repaired

"I was saddened to see her washing his and my family's clothes every day and the amount of effort she put into it, which is when I promised her a handmade machine," he said.

Named 'Divya', this handheld machine is simple and easy to repair and tested in many countries around the world.

Navjot Swahini says there was a strong reaction.                                                    wash clothes by hand it takes a long time and no one likes to wash clothes by hand, and everyone understands the problem," she said.

"We are very lucky. We have universities, we have companies and we have people who are willing to donate their time and that feeling makes me humble.

Matthew Mayo says he wanted to make life easier for the poor

These machines include the Bristol Design and Fabrication firm Hexlow, which manufactures parts of wood and PVC (plastic) for its equipment.

"We've taken the time to do this because it's a very useful job," said Hexlow's Matthew Mayo.

see a picture on paper transformed into a visual aid that helps people," it's a real relief he added.

A Bath University expert said he had been asked to help with the project

At Bath University, where Swahni is completing his studies, his supervisors helped him make his painting a working university.

"If we gave them a problem, they would solve it immediately," said Owen Rotter, a university professor.

Swahini says he will travel to Iraq in early September this year to help distribute the equipment.

In the beginning, the critics of literature did not consider him worthy of attention, but then all became captives of his pen. Ibn Safi's pen journey spans 28 years . During this journey, he created about two and a half hundred novels which were published under the name of Jasusy Dunia (Detective World) and Imran Series. In January 1952, the world's first detective novel, Dalair Mujram(The Brave Criminal) , was published, and in August 1955, the first novel in the Imran series, Khaofnak Amarat (The Terrible Building), was published.
