Koraput, Nov 7 (UDN): On the auspicious occasion of the festival of Diwali, the Odisha Rural Development and Marketing Society (ORMAS) has organised a special Diwali stall in Koraput to promote rural products and encourage women entrepreneurs. The stall was formally inaugurated by the Collector of Koraput, who attended the event and marked the commencement of the special festive initiative.
The stall showcases a wide range of handmade products and Diwali-related decorative items prepared by rural women. These products are not only being displayed but are also made available for sale, providing an opportunity for customers to purchase locally made goods while supporting the hard work, creativity and entrepreneurial skills of women from rural communities.
This initiative by ORMAS marks an important step towards strengthening women’s empowerment and promoting self-reliance among rural women. By providing a platform to showcase and market their products, the initiative aims to encourage women’s participation in economic activities, enhance their livelihood opportunities and generate additional sources of income. It will also help connect rural women producers directly with the market, ensuring greater visibility and recognition for their products while strengthening their financial independence.
