In the year 2021, she determined in her mind to open up a singar shop in the village itself. But she was lacking capital for it. She needed at least one lac rupees to start expected business. She took loan of Rs. 50000.00 from her SHG, rest of the required money was borrowed from relatives and neighbours. Finally she succeeded to open up a shop that was her dream, in the year 2021, May.
