These
days, it has become difficult to meet both the ends
for the common people, who have limited income. Due to
this, they face a lot of difficulties from time to
time. Shri Bharti Dehriya of village Makanjhir in
Lakhnadon tehsil of Seoni district was also facing
such grave difficulties. But she faced all these
hurdles with courage and determination due to which
poverty accepted its defeat. It may be mentioned that
her husband used to be the lone bread-earner of the
family. He used to sell articles by vending nearby
villages riding his cycle. But he could not eke out
enough money to meet the requirements of his family
well.
Smt..
Bharti Dehriya wanted to do something for increasing
the family’s income. She talked to the village’s
public representatives in this connection. During the
talks, she came to know of the schemes being run by
the District Entrepreneur Committee Smt. Bharti who
belongs to scheduled castes, talked to the CEO of
District Entrepreneur Committee, who advised her to
start a shop of bangles near the national highway.
After consulting her family members, Smt. Bharti
started the shop when a loan worth Rs. 25,000 was
provided to her under Mahila Samriddhi Yojana of
National Scheduled Caste Finance and Development
Corporation apart from Rs. 10,000 subsidy.
Nowadays,
Smt. Bharti is running the shop skillfully. She has
repaid the loan and intends to expand her shop. Bharti
is of firm belief that those who work with
determination succeed in life. She also advises other
women of the village to start their self-employment
ventures.
