Thirty-five-year-old Veena was asked to work as a domestic helper by many. “My husband is a labourer and we have three children. Though we have food to eat and a place to live, we cannot afford good education for our children. I wanted to do something better and not just work as a domestic helper. It was then that I came to know about the E-Auto for Women scheme of the state government and got myself enrolled,” she says.
Veena and 19 other women have been selected by the Haryana Women Development Corporation to be trained as e-auto drivers and become economically independent.
