Vidya is a woman farmer and belongs to a poor family. She lives with her husband and three daughters. Both she and her husband are above 60 years of age and due to their age, they are unable to do labour to earn wages. Since they do not have their own land, it was getting very difficult for them to feed their family and is solely dependent on their pension to survive. As the bank is far from the village and due to the COVID- 19 pandemic, people above 60 are not allowed to enter the premises, Vidya and her husband struggled a lot to avail their pension and other benefits. Fortunately, they came across Asho Kumari’s centre in their village where she was able to withdraw money without standing in a queue for long hours and was also able to avail all other benefits.
