NDMC launches new project to make unemployed women self-reliant

With an aim towards making unemployed women self-reliant, the New Delhi Municipal Council has launched a unit where they will be given training to prepare quality food products and then sell it through a tiffin service. Announced in April this year, the project was implemented last week with the setting up of a canteen, ‘Urja’, at Gole Market here. The concept has been based on the successful tiffin service in Mumbai, civic body officials said. Under this project, women will be provided skill training after which they will be employed in a factory set-up for production of eatables.
