Pushpa and her group mate

Pushpa Kamble was waiting outside her house to welcome us. We entered the house and settled ourselves. Immediately two other women entered one offered us water and other gave us fresh bananas to eat. Pushpa and her group of 15 members are called SriDurgadevi Mahila SHG. Their husbands are daily wagers either on farms or they go to the main city to find work. Most of this women took loans to buy buffalos and some to extend their business. When I asked them about their daily routine Sonali said, " We usually finish our household chores early in the morning and then look after our buffalos. Milk them and later store it in a container ready to be taken away by the local dairy. " The usually fetch price of 20-25 Rs per liter which is a good amount. When I asked them what are the future plans, they all said we will buy more buffalos and continue expanding our business. Pushpa added, "Most of the women here prefer doing this business so that they can simultaneously take care of their home as well. They don't have to go anywhere and can easily support their family by adding income from selling milk." The loan has helped them lead a comfortable life.
