If I had even 20,000 rupees, my family and I could start so many things. We could cultivate vegetables and sell them in the market, or open a small shop, gradually expanding it. This isn't just about earning money; it's about creating our own employment and managing our work, giving us daily income.
We might start with something like goat farming, or making egg rolls and flower carts, alongside poultry. My group could sew leaf plates and take them to the market. We even have skills like hammering iron to make axes, sickles, spades, shovels, and tongs—this is our livelihood. With this small capital, we can ensure our children are educated in a good school and manage our households well, enabling us to live a comfortable life.
