KDP RACTWA – Strengthening the Community of Technicians

The Kadapa Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Technicians Welfare Association (RACTWA) was established in 2017, inspired by the vision and dedication of our senior-most engineers—S. Habbiullaha, Samba Sivudu, Haroon Rasheed Shaik, and Rahmatullah. Their vast experience, technical expertise, and commitment to the welfare of refrigeration and air conditioning (RAC) technicians laid the foundation for an organization that continues to uplift and support the community.

At KDP RACTWA, we believe in unity, professionalism, and continuous growth. We work towards improving the working conditions, financial stability, and technical expertise of our members. Through training programs, networking opportunities, and welfare initiatives, we strive to create a thriving community of skilled technicians who are recognized and respected in their field.
