Weaving Her Way to Independence
From Thread to Thrive: Meena Bagotia’s Sui Dhaga Journey
Meena Bagotia Weaves Independence
Born into a humble home, Meena Bagotia learned to stitch at her mother’s and grandmother’s knees. What began as a family craft lived quietly in her hands for years, but Meena dreamed of turning those familiar stitches into a steady livelihood for her family.
Her chance arrived with the Sui Dhaga course run by Roopaantar, a CSR initiative of e‑Infochips. She attended every session, absorbed every lesson, and moved from basic seams to the finesse of professional finishing. Her dedication transformed a lifelong hobby into a marketable skill.
Today Meena works from home, completing customer orders and earning ₹10,000–₹12,000 a month. Beyond the income, she has gained confidence, respect, and the freedom to shape her own future. With steady hands and quiet determination, Meena has shown how a simple thread can be woven into a life of independence.
