Self-Reliance Achieved through Roasted Peanuts by Ritusree Bhunia and Pinki Bhunia

In Ayodhyapur village, Deshapran block, Purba Medinipur district, the Tripti Women’s Group, comprising women from disadvantaged backgrounds, faced significant economic challenges and struggled to support their children's education. To address these issues, Kajla Janakalyan Samity introduced various income-generating activities. Ritusree Bhunia and Pinki Bhunia decided to launch a roasted peanuts business.

With a ?60,000 loan from Kajla Janakalyan Samity, Ritusree and Pinki began roasting and packaging peanuts. As their business grew and additional family members joined, their income increased, enhancing their socio-economic status. The success of their venture enabled them to support their children’s education and create employment for 20 other women in Ayodhyapur village, who now earn ?3,000-4,000 per month.

What We Do

Kajla Janakalyan Samity has grown into a vibrant organization working with a range of people across multiple sectors.
