Giriraj Pandey is unlike other people in the village. Others lounge around, gossip, and gamble. But he is busy in his farm. He has 7 ropani lands he has planted banana trees in ¼ of the land and in others he has planted tomatoes, cauliflowers, chilies etc. His family also supports him.
He came in the valley 20 years ago and bought the land and settled in the valley. He has been producing vegetables since last 15 years. He remembers the very difficult times when he had to go door to door to sell his products and to a long distance. Now the business people come to his own home to buy his products.
He takes loan from local co-operatives for fertilizers and seeds. He says that he has never got help from JTA and any others. He earns about Rs. 80 thousand per year. Though his income is small but he has vision he is self-dependant. He can earn more if markets are easily linked to the valley. He has planned to fetch water from a nearby source but he expects to get loan at lower interest rate from the co-operatives.
Those youth who are willing to go abroad can learn from him. He is hard working. The youths can do better than him. They need not look for the job outside when there is opportunity at the threshold.
