Saras Mela Empowers Rural Women, Connects Them to Big Markets with JSLPS Support

• JSLPS continuously works to make rural women self-reliant and strengthen their economic status through self-employment.
• Saras Melas, organized by JSLPS at state and national levels, provide a platform for women's self-help groups to sell their products.
• A Saras Mela is scheduled in Deoghar, where women from various districts, including Palamu's Mahila Aajeevika Sakhi Mandal, will participate.
• Ten women from Palamu will showcase handmade bells, strawberry products, honey, bangles, Bluetooth bracelets, and various agricultural products.
• These melas boost women's confidence, provide identity, and foster economic empowerment, enabling them to reach larger markets.

Why It Matters: Saras Melas, supported by JSLPS, are empowering rural women by providing market access and fostering entrepreneurship.
