Day1: 2nd March, 2014
We at Jaipuria Jaipur began our entrepreneurship week journey with outreach programs. The students were quite enthused about the theme of E-week “Innovating for India”. They all unanimously felt that understanding problems at grass root level is fundamentally important to innovate. The young brigade of 43 students and Dr. S.K. Pandey along with CSR team member Mr. Prakash Sharma explored the day long visit to the field.
Event 2: Nafiz & Vaidu (Tonk Road) / An Interaction with Loha Brothers
Time: 11.15 AM – 11.45 AM
The fascinating view of iron ore stuff lying on the sides of Tonk road can’t be skipped by the people travel on the road. Students felt, we only have looked at them; we never cared to stop and understand them. Lets do was the spirit…………..
Nafiz and Vaidu brothers are the Banajaras and they were operating their business of used building materials like iron doors, windows etc. They recycle, repair/renovate the old items of iron & sell them again in the market.
A Student Ujjwal Sharma said, we read the concept of Triple Bottom Line Approach and 3R’s of Sustainability and they truly practice this in reality and making money out of the same.
When one of the students raised the question of illegal operations – they said, we are not at all operating illegally; we pay so many time money to Police, police stations, and JDA.
Students team set with them, and made them understand the consequences and also talked to them about how to make it legal and registering their business and agreed to help them to do so.
