Lakhpati Didi Journey
Cattle manure is a rich source of carbon particles, which are highly toxic and pollutant to this environment. This cattle manure was effectively utilized by Mrs.Dhanasekari from Panchakaviya Vilaku Joint liability Group (JLG) from Kurumbapet Panchayat of the Villianur block. She learned these innovative and creative techniques through social media and formed this Panchakaviya Vilaku JLG. She accessed credit linkage of Rs 2.00 lakhs from PBGB and developed her business. She is producing approximately 8000 pieces of Panchakaviya Diya per month, and she sells it for Rs. 5 per Diya in the brand name of NEITHAL. The income from the Panchakaviya diya per month is Rs. 45,000. This best practice adopted by her , who is a resilient woman, not only takes control of her life but also lends a helping hand to promote organic and carbon-free green Puducherry by contributing productivity to the country, which promotes globalization for future generations.
