Daily wage labourer Sunita kumawat dared to dream big and Silai School gave wings to her dreams
Madhya Pradesh's Kanha Tiger Reserve is one of the most popular national parks attracting many tourists buy at home does not have too many alternative sources of income available. Phuliya Bai and Rekha Rahangdale joined the Usha Silai programme and soon they turned entrepreneurs and started their own training schools to teach stitching to other women.
Two Rabari women of Gujarat overcame their respective physical disabilities and followed their passion of stitching and designing garments
Turning adversity into an opportunity, Rejimol Tomy took charge of her household, children and is now looking to help other women to become financially independent.
In a village like Bhelu ki Dhani in the Bikaner district of Rajasthan, women are not allowed to step out of house and work. The harsh reality of this village pushed Suva Kunwar to break the rules and start the work of stitching. Today she is a trendsetter in her village.
