Lakhpati Didi Journey

Dulesshwari Devangan, faced with the challenge of running a small shop that proved insufficient for supporting her family, took a transformative step by joining a Self-Help Group (SHG). As the appointed e-Book Keeper for the group, she proactively sought livelihood opportunities to improve her financial situation. Through dedicated efforts and participation in livelihood training programs, Dulesshwari secured a loan of Rs. 50,000 from the E-Rikshaw Scheme. 

This financial boost not only provided her with the necessary capital but also instilled confidence and exposure beyond her immediate environment. Dulesshwari’s journey became a beacon of encouragement for entrepreneurship, earning her recognition in society. Presently, she enjoys a sustainable livelihood, earning between Rs. 12,000 and Rs. 15,000 per month. Dulesshwari’s story exemplifies the transformative power of self-help groups, training initiatives, and entrepreneurial endeavors in elevating individuals and fostering sustainable livelihoods.
