When we went to Sikrawada on 14th of this month almost 30 women and some males of community were arguing each other on an issue. When we asked them what’s the matter? Mr. Kamlesh Tiwari (Coordinator) at DPIP told us that “we are planning to start a Stitching Training Center here for 3 month in which 2 Professional trainers one Madam from Gwalior and one from Shivpuri give them training. As well as certificates and Swinging machine will be given to each member. But problem is that neither they are getting ready to go in nearby community nor agree to start it here itself”.
Than we talked to women they said we’ll not go there because if we go there we must have to go with naked feet and carry slippers in our hands because they belongs from upper caste. So we don’t want to participate in this training.
Than we talked them about possibilities of conducting training at here itself in between our community people, so they said its dirty room without plaster at walls and floor, how we can do it here. After long discussion with community members, other caste people and Coordinator of DPIP; we decided to start cleaning of Room and Place. At beginning nobody took interest in cleaning of place but Jeevika Team members started by themselves, seeing us working for them after a minute, one after one all women unite and cleaned that place and room just in 30 minutes and 1st day of training started with members from Sikrawada and Sikrawadi village.
At last most of them said: we wasted our 3 hours in arguments and over all process took only 30 minutes. Now we are feeling happy and we will learn together.
