At this critical junction of life, industrialization began as a blessing in disguise. The entire area gave lots of employment to people from the locality. Notwithstanding, the contentious issue of engagement of non-tribal into industry in place of tribal, the industry has not only given livelihood but also opened window of opportunity to the local people especially youth.

Manasi Mahanta has set a benchmark in micro-enterprise entrepreneurship by establishing the brand ‘Maa Pickles’ in Jajpur. Manasi, a member of Tata Steel Parivar, is the secretary of ‘Dibyajyoti’, an SHG group that has made ‘Maa Pickle’ a household name in the region. Having started as ‘Dibyajyoti Griha Udyog’ in 2008 with a loan of RS 1, 070, 00 from a nationalised bank the enterprise’s annual sales turnover has reached Rs 2, 306, 67 and the bank loan has also been repaid. This success has come through the entrepreneurial skills and initiative shown by 12 members of the SHG, including Manasi Mahanta.<br /><br />A rural tribal housewife from Kalamatia village, Manasi used to be busy in domestic chores all day with practically no social life. Though literate, she was never encouraged to earn independently though her family was entirely dependent on the meagre yield of paddy that they reaped. With this they could not afford even the basic necessities of life. At this juncture Tata Steel’s R&R package brought a new ray of hope as Manasi and many others like her relocated with the assurance of a better future.<br /><br />Tata Steel Resettlement & Rehabilitation (R&R) officials motivated the women to start an SHG group and also provided them training for day-to-day management of the SHG. Thus, the 12-member Dibyajyoti SHG was formed as group members showed interest in starting a small business venture independently. Manasi and majority of the others wanted to be trained in modern techniques of pickle making. Today Manasi is not only a secretary of this SHG but she has also become a teacher in Sri Ganesh Siksha Mandir. Her husband Akhila Mahanta too is getting mechanical training at CTDC, Bhubaneswar.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03299006002069181562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5231565057592554723.post-11770271813434759652010-07-10T13:34:35.240+05:302010-07-10T13:34:35.240+05:30I have found this video that tells that the Jamuda...I have found this video that tells that the Jamuda family, even after being displaced from Chandia village, has become self-sufficient. The elder son Ramchandra Jamuda got training in ITES at Bangalore and is now working in a voice based BPO at Hyderabad.
