Tribal women from Bhadrachalam make profits from soap making

A few tribal women at Bhadrachalam in the district treading the path of self-reliance and supporting their families by setting up a small scale industry setting an example for others.

Fifteen women formed the Dammakka Joint Liability Group in Bhadrachalam. With an intention to do something big, they



underwent training for three months in making soaps and shampoos at Vritika Herbtics Foundation in Hyderabad.

The group secretary Vijayalaksmi informed that after the training was over in 2019 the group members approached the then ITDA PO Gautham Potru seeking support to set up a small scale industry.
