Veena Devi took to PM Modi’s Twitter timeline and shared about her unique mushroom farming technique, which not only made her self-reliant but also boosted her morale.
Veena Devi of Bihar’s Munger says, “Where there is a will, there is a way. Everything can be achieved with will.”
Veena Devi had started cultivating mushrooms under her bed. She says, “Today women are not far behind in any field. If the women power of the country is determined, then they can start their journey from their home itself. Due to this farming I got respect. I became a sarpanch. It is a pleasure for me that many women like myself are getting similar training opportunities.”
She further says that today the women of Munger have become an example for the whole country. From farming at home to selling the produce in the local Haats, the entire task is her responsibility and her life story inspires everyone.
जहां चाह वहां राह… इच्छाशक्ति से सब कुछ हासिल किया जा सकता है।

मेरी वास्तविक पहचान पलंग के नीचे एक किलो मशरूम की खेती से शुरू हुई थी।
लेकिन इस खेती ने मुझे न केवल आत्मनिर्भर बनाया, बल्कि मेरे आत्मविश्वास को बढ़ाकर एक नया जीवन दिया।
