IOCL-SDI Project

TAILORING & JUTE PRODUCTION UNIT FOR UJJAWLA BENEFICIARIES

Mahashakti Foundation with the esteemed support of Indian Oil Corporation Limited and Skill Development Institute started a Training centre at Ogalpada on 05 March in Khurda district on Tailoring and Jute.

Over 10 crores households were still deprived from LPG as cooking fuel. After PMUY, the women didn’t have to rely on firewood, coal, dung – cakes etc for cooking and were left with some free time as the cooking was a lot easier & faster. Mahashakti Foundation thought of utilizing this extra leisure time of the Ujjwala beneficiaries in a productive way so that they can earn a better position in the society, contribute their bit to the family and work for their sustainability.

With this backdrop, MSF proposed to open a Skill Development Training Centre at Ogalpada under CSR initiatives of IOCL to train 180 women beneficiaries of PMUY in the village.The project aims to provide skill development training to the women beneficiaries of UjjwalaYojna on stitching and making Jute products to subsequently improve the standard of living of the Below Poverty Line people as they can upgrade their skill and be the breadwinner of their respective families.
