Background
This case study is going to reveal how a
mahila mandal got empowered with the intervention of HARIT PRAYAS team in Kadta
village. The mahila’S ( women) of the mahila mandal were illiterate and were afraid going to bank
or talking to bank officials. Mahila mandal name is “Versa
Mahila Mandal” and there are 11 members in that mahil manda. It
has its bank account in State bank of India.
HARIT PRAYAS Impact:
When HARIT PRAYAS project started it
was for the first time women heard about opening a bank account by themselves
and doing transaction alone. They were feeling panic but the secretary of this
mahila mandal puspa bai vishwakerma took initative to teach the members of
versa mahila mandal’s women how to read and write and gave them training for
that. She herself was afraid of going to bank alone so previously she used to
go with our animator name hari thakur and started learning the procedure and
how to fill up the bank’s forms.
Result
As a result of this today they are regularly
going to
bank that to alone and can fill all the forms by themselves without asking anyone they can
easily talk to manager without any afraid. The women of that mahila mandal can sign now
they can’t be cheated as they can read.
They are even raising their voice in gram sabha about their rights.
