Never did he think that he, who after class VIII was leading a directionless life would ever be able to achieve this feet in life. It all happened when his father heard of the training course being conducted by B-ABLE in collaboration with the Rajasthan Government managed to convince his son to join the course.

Along with the technical knowledge, Shrawan also learnt the basics of work ethics, good grooming, discipline etc that changed his thought process and developed a positive approach to life.


Looking back, Shrawan expresses his gratitude to B-ABLE and the Rajasthan Government for giving him the training that transformed his life. He feels happy to be a son of a proud father who says, “ never did I imagine that my awara beta will earn Rs 10,000/ every month.I am very proud of him “.

Prakash-Gardener-B.C.Jindal Foundation

Originally from Bihar, the family migrated to Delhi in search of livelihood. Prakash showed no interest in going to school and barely completed his class VIII. He soon began to accompany his father at work so he can avoid going to school. This he says was a ‘Blessing in disguise’. He acquired his skill of gardening by observing and assisting his father at work. He would go to work every day to do his mundane chores in the garden and return home day after day waiting for a small salary of about 3500/- per month which was hardly enough to make his two ends meet. Not so long ago in March 2018, Prakash heard of a specialized training being conducted with a defined job role of ‘Gardner cum Nursery Raiser’. An initiative to upskill the existing gardeners and to provide skills to the new comers.The 2 month training was like an eye-opener for Prakash. He realized that the work he was doing was very random. For Prakash gardening was as simple as sowing the seeds, watering the sapling or softening the soil and leave the rest to the weather gods for the plants to bear fruit. According to him the training not only gave him the knowledge of basics of gardening but also got the firsthand experience of knowing the different types of soil, impact of weather on plants and much more”. In other words he says “I feel like a real gardener now”. His enhanced gardening skills and eagerness to work was well appreciated and rewarded by his employers. He now earns a handsome pay packet of Rs. 9000/- per month.


He is grateful to B-ABLE and BC Jindal for having given him a chance to be a part of this training that changed his life to become a gardener with a difference.
