IP youth Prodip has himself opened Motor Bike repairing workshop

Prodip Hasda is an IP youth with strong mind to move forward. He is living Laldighi village, Godagari subdistrict under Rajshahi district. He was born on March 15, 2000 and studied up to class VIII. His elder brother does mason work while younger two Jamin Hasda studies at college and Rocky Hasda dropped out from school. To be said, their only means is 7 decimal of household land. Parents are wage laborer, lives on agricultural work. Prodip could not continue study because of poverty. He roamed around like maverick. One day he came to know that IED, non-government organization assists unemployed IP youth to get hands on skill training. He applied to IED to receive automobile repairing task and got selected. Then he received training on automobile at Tito workshop of Rajbari, Godagari in Rajshahi with a dream to open a workshop by his own. He started working at the same workshop after completing his 10 months long hands on skill training on automobile.

It was not easy for him to venture own workshop even though having utmost zeal. His family did also not have capacity to provide financial assistance to him. Finding no other ways, Prodip takes credit from local NGO for paying advance for house rent and paid it and opened a workshop. He brands the shop name as ‘Prodip motor cycle servicing center’. The workshop is located at Gopalpur mour (turn) beside the Rajshahi to Chapainawabgonj highway. Prodip employs 2 other IP youths named Budhinath Soren and Biswajit Oraon in his workshop.

Now he is committed to do hard work, earns handsome income (average monthly Tk. 15,000/-) and poverty has been reduced though facing problem with COVID-19 lockdown situation. His dream inspired him to become success. Now it’s only turn to move forward.
