Empowering Women through Skill Development!

27 November 2023, Sahibganj: In collaboration with NBJK and Usha International Ltd., a transformative 9-day residential training program has kicked off at Abhiyan Prashikshan Kendra, Habibpur, Sahibganj. This initiative, inaugurated by Mr. P. K. Varadiyar, Deputy Development Commissioner of Sahibganj, celebrates innovation and empowerment. Also Mr. Felix Tirkey (State Program Manager, UIL), Mr. Shailesh Kumar (Asst. Prog. Coordinator, NBJK) and Mr. Abdus Subhan (Head, APK) have graced the function.

With a focus on women’s financial independence, the Usha-SIDBI Swavlamban Silai School Training aims to equip 25 women from Taljhari and Sahibganj Sadar blocks with comprehensive sewing machine skills, from maintenance to designing and tailoring. Under the guidance of dedicated trainers Mrs. Sunita Devi and Mrs. Nibha Kumari, supported by Usha’s service engineers Mr. Balveer Sharma and Mr. Suneel Kumar, these trainees are mastering the art of creating in-demand apparel.

Upon completion, each participant will receive a certificate, guidebook, sign board and a brand new sewing machine to establish their own Usha Silai School. This impactful initiative emphasizes self-employment and community development. NBJK thanks everyone involved in making this vision a reality!
