Shrawan Singh 25 years, completed ‘Domestic Electrician’ training from Beawar Centre under the ELSTP scheme and soon after which got placed as a ‘Machine Operator’ with a monthly salary of Rs 10,000/-. 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.
Very reluctantly Shrawan did so but it wasn’t long that he began to show interest in all that was being taught in class and the practical sessions. 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 “.
B-ABLE wishes Shrawan great success in life.
Mohamad Shadab, son of a small time tailor had great aspirations to do well in life and raise the living standard of his family. Unfortunately, the financial constraints and lack of direction were not in his favour and he was left to while away his time with other young boys doing nothing. One day Shadab chanced upon a pamphlet, informing him about the Retail training. What attracted him most was the training was free of cost. Shadab wasted no time and joined the training course and there was no looking back for him.
Today he is working with ‘Reliance Trends’ and gets a monthly salary of Rs8400/-in hand. He feels very proud that with his earnings he can support the family and also independently take care of his personal expenses. With a smile on his face Shadab says “This training is the best thing that happened to me. The same people who would rebuke me and would look at me as good for nothing, now respect me and feel happy that one among them is on the path to success”. Shadab now has a goal to continue doing his best and grow to the level of ‘department Manager’. Our best wishes to Shadab for achieving success in his future endeavours.

Shiv chanced upon a banner on his way home one day giving details of the training programme. He got curious and went to inquire about it the next day. There was no looking back for him after that. He took permission for time off from his employers and started to attend the course regularly. Appreciating the instructor Shiv says, “ Guru kae bina vidya adhuri hoti hai. Doctor sahib ne baagwaani ki meri jankari ko sampuran kar diya hai. Mai is training ke liya Doctor sahib aur B-ABLE ke prati abhaar prakat karta hun”. Shiv also expresses gratitude for making him understand the importance of discipline and good communication skills that further enhanced his quality of work. He now feels proud to be certified for his skills.
Shiv returned to work after 2 months of very worthy training. His newly acquired skills were observed by his employers. As a token of appreciation he has now been upgraded to a position of ‘Head Mali’ of a team of four, managing a 300 acre residential farm.

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. Doing the same thing for several years Prakash thought he knew it all and somehow managed a job in a private home. 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. Hardly did he know that gardening is much more intense and technical then he had ever thought. 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.2018-08-24T11:09:48+00:00

Earnings from here were not enough, so he learnd to drive and worked as a private driver on short term assignments. All said and done, even after contineously working for 4 years his job and his income were not regular. He was still struggling to make his two ends meet. One fine day, his friend handed him a pamphlet stateing all the information of the said training course. He could not believe his eyes when he read that the training was ‘free of cost’. Infact, it created a doubt in his mind about the genueness of the information. To clarify his doubts he contacted the B-ABLE team member and visited the sight. And that was the turning point in his life. He was overwhellmed with the large training ground, the machines and the boarding lodging facilities. Karan was so excited about the training programme that he reached a day before the commencement of the programme.
He expressess with deep gratitude that the training was of par excellance. “The combination of theory and practical classes developed my skills and today I am a certified Backhoe Loader Operator and I also know all about the big and small parts of the machine”.
