BHAGWAT FINDS
LIVELIHOOD IN DROUGHT
Since Vidarbha is a drought prone region, youths face
problem of unemployment. Vikas Sahyog Pratishthan with the support of
Rangoonwala Foundation India Trust and Edelgive Foundation, works in Skill
Development of Youths in Buldhana district of Maharashtra from last 10 years.
A village named Hingna,
is situated 9 kms away from Shegaon to Sangrampur Highway. Agriculture is
the only source of livelihood in this village. Therefore, VSP conducts various
workshops regarding livelihood and trains the youths for their sustainability.
A youth named Bhagwat Morkhede, aged 25
years, was unemployed. When VSP conducted 2 days’ workshop on livelihood in his
village, a sense of confidence developed in him regarding obtaining livelihood
through business. Then, he decided to further apply for 2 months training
conducted by VSP related to motor repairing.
After completing the 2 months training,
Bhagwat started a small motor repairing shop in his village. Now he has started
earning Rs.2,000 to Rs.2,500 per month which has now solved his problem of
unemployment and his monthly expenses. By saving an amount from his monthly
income, he has arranged a good amount of capital and has decided to open
another shop of motor repairing in Varvant Bokal which is a market area
in which Vikas Sahyog Pratishthan is supporting him to show the right path.
He is now known as a Businessman which has
overcome the problem of Unemployment.
