There was a four-year-old when Chetnaben Patel, a small resident of Mehsana, Gujarat, succumbed to polio and found it difficult to walk even two steps. All the classmates used to walk to school on foot and little Chetna used to walk a kilometer to study with the help of both hands and feet. She went to school like this till the eighth grade, then she got a three wheeler cycle. With the help of this cycle, he completed his studies till post-graduation. Now he had a job challenge in front of him. He was not getting any job because of 80 percent disability. Then Chetna did a computer course from an NGO. Then in the same institution he was placed on the post of computer operator. Chetnaben bought a scooty for herself with the money earned from this job. But in 2017 due to some personal reasons, he had to come to his village Taranga from Mehsana. Chettanaven Patel
Lost job. He searched for a job around the village, but even after all his efforts, he could not find any work. In his spare time, he started making pickles at home. When the lockdown happened, about two kg of mango pickle was prepared and distributed free of cost in the nearby villages. People liked his pickle. When some people ordered him over the phone, he got the idea of pickle business. Gradually, she started taking orders from the phone and going for delivery on Scooty. Today, Chetnaben takes orders for pickles as well as papads. Now she has started getting orders from nearby cities as well, which she sends with the help of couriers.
