Success Story of Laishram Babita Devi

Life is as unpredictable as the career of Babita, a nursing graduate and now a successful kouna handicraft artisan. She began her ordeal of hardship of life since the demise of her husband, who was a government employee. She had tasted the bitterness of life and opted to stay in her paternal home and tries to support her two children, a son of six years and a daughter of two years.

She now settles life with kouna handicraft business and earn her twentyfive thousand rupees per month in average, whereas the income is ever increasing. Little effort of Manipur Maparee for registering her in DC Handicraft, Government of Manipur, and planned exposure in Dilli Haat will boost marketing and she is optimistic of a good financial career in addition to her services as nurse in the local community. Her association with Rajesh Enterprises, the small company of her elder brother is a grand leap for both brother and sister. The financial independence of Babita through kouna handicraft is an oasis in her deserted life after the loss of her husband. She sees future of her children through this handicraft business. Her dedication, persistency and artistic touches make her career in this field bright.
