Raipur, 24 November 2021. Niyati gave small stature to Somari Markam, a resident of Alor Gram Panchayat of Kondagaon district, but gave her spirits high. With this passion, she not only made a way of living herself, but is also helping the people of the village to get employment. Somari had come to Jagdalpur to meet Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel during his stay in Bastar. Mr. Baghel spoke to Somari for a long time. While praising Somari’s work, he also presented her a new mobile set. Somari told the Chief Minister that she wanted to take a selfie with him, the Chief Minister immediately agreed and took a selfie with Somari herself, taking her mobile in her hand.
Somari had to struggle for employment due to her small stature. After passing the Higher Secondary examination, he was feeling tight for further studies. Apart from mother and father, there is also a brother in his family. His family lives below the poverty line. Somari wanted that if she gets a job, she can continue her further studies. Like the whole of Chhattisgarh, the open works under the Employment Guarantee Scheme in the villages of Kondagaon district also showed him the way. She contacted the employment assistant and became a mate. She starts her work from 5 o’clock in the morning. From marking the dock at the workplace to digging, maintaining the register, updating the job card, She is carrying out the responsibility of filling the online muster roll through the mobile app. The people of the village are also happy with Somari due to the work as per the need and the payment of work on time. Somari told the Chief Minister that he loved his work. Now through self-study, she is also fulfilling her desire to pursue college. Chief Minister Shri Bhupesh Baghel said that we are committed for a brighter future and progress of Somari.
