Sidhi was a combined society directed at rehabilitating destitute tribal women living in one of the poorest states in India. Most of these women were illiterate or had only primary education. A professionally educated non-tribal social entrepreneur has helped these girls and earn an adequate living. Due to her own well-being concerns, this societal entrepreneur must step down.
Her successor has to be a girl who liaise with both the vendors as well as the government authorities, cooperate in liaising with both the government authorities. The challenge is to recruit an outsider, who'll comprehend the needs of Sidhi and be taken by the Sidhi membership or to either identify this type of leader among the illiterate women.
