Darbhanga: Mohammad Tausif, an engineer from Bihar's Darbhanga, has developed an automatic sanitisation machine and donated it to the primary school he completed his primary education from.
Tausif made the machine at a cost of Rs 800 and has installed it at the Quarantine Centre in Revdha Middle School where many labourers are quarantined.
Tausif did his BTech in mechanical engineering from a college in Odisha and was working as a project manager in a pipe company in Maharashtra.
As soon as coronavirus cases started being reported from India, he came to his village and thought of making a sanitising machine to help the villagers.
Tausif said that he had a lot of problems while making this sanitiser machine as he was unable to find many items needed for the machine. Due to coronavirus, he used spare parts of other electronic machines to make the sanitiser machine.
Now Tausif wants to develop more such machines and deliver them to other quarantine centres and hospitals to stop the coronavirus spread.
Tausif informed that these machines take very little electrical power and apart from power, it can also be run with DC batteries and solar plates. This machine is fully automatic and its sensors can start and stop the machine automatically as per the need.
Mithilesh Prasad, the head of the Panchayat, said that Tausif has encouraged the 'Make in India' project, and wished for his success.
