"When I got married, I was given a sewing machine. My husband taught me some sewing and it became a source of income for us," says Kalpana Debbarma, who lives in Desharampara village of West Tripura. At the age of 22, Kalpana married a tailor, and it was then that she expressed a desire to learn the art of sewing.

This partnership underscores a shared commitment to fostering grassroots development and promoting inclusive growth. By facilitating access to vocational training in remote regions, this collaboration not only equips individuals with sewing and entrepreneurial skills but also contributes to the larger goal of women's empowerment and community development.

The Usha Swavalamban Silai School, a programme that empowers rural women, defying geographical barriers, has partnered with the Small Industries Development Bank of India (SIDBI) and NGO ELFA International.

In the secluded corners of the Shopian district, remoteness casts a shadow over the landscape, presenting women with limited opportunities and a challenging path towards empowerment. The USHA Swavalamban Silai School, established here at the Industrial Training Institute (ITI) in Shopian, reflects USHA's steadfast commitment to bridge this gap by providing skills, opportunities, and hope to regions where the echoes of progress are often faint.
