I am Paresh Majhi from Malibahal village of Dangarpada gram panchayat under Muribahal block in Balangir district. Earlier I was migrating to other states for searching livelihoods. But due to exploitation of contractor, I returned to my village and worked as construction worker. Gradually I became a mason. But I did not have equipment require for mason. It was difficult to purchase the equipment as cost high. During the survey by NYDHEE for PHF supported project I was included. With the financial support from the project, I was able to purchase mason equipment like masonry saw, margin trowel, chisel, leveler, measurement tape etc. Now, I am earning Rs. 400/- to Rs. 500/- per day. I am thankful to NYDHEE for its dedicated work.
