“If you can dream it, you can do it”. This proverb has been proved true by a Women Self Help Group of Bhilai, as the lamps (diyas) made by them using cow dung in Bhilai is becoming popular not only outside State, but also abroad. The women from the SHG ‘Udaan Nai Dishayen’ of Bhilai met with Collector Dr Sarveshwar Narendra Bhure and Superintendent of Police (SP) Prashant Thakur in this context on Thursday and apprised about them it.
 
During meeting the Director of the SHG Nidhi Chandrakar informed that the demand for the lamps made by them is not only outside State, but they have also received orders from Qatar and Switzerland. The Collector and SP were very happy on this and congratulated the women.
 
The group said that the District Administration has publicised their work through social media and newspapers, so they are getting so many orders. On this, Collector advised that if they get the more orders, do the work by adding women from rural areas and train them and supply them to the customers. SP Prashant Thakur also praised and congratulated the hard work and skills of women.
