Labannya has undertaken this pioneering initiative to provide Solar Lanterns to all the Tiger Widows of Indian Sundarbans, who have lost their husbands by tiger attacks inside the Sundarban Tiger Reserve (STR) while fishing or collecting honey! This is really a nightmare to any sensible person, if he/she can learn more or come close to those Tiger Widows! They are simply living without any livelihood; even they can’t think of their personal safety and security, ... while managing their daily needs by the similar profession; like collecting fish and crabs on the densely marshy rivulets and canals. They also compel to continue their livelihood operations even in the dark, due to higher possibilities of their catch! They continue their work by risking their lives and many die by venomous snake bites, almost in a regular interval! They cannot use even a battery light, to save the consumption cost. After a long research and survey, the Labannya has undertaken the project SEM (Solar Enlighten Mission) to increase their night safety and security as they belong to the poor of the poorest community and mostly live alone! To achieve the goal, all socially responsible Individuals, Organizations and Corporate Houses are cordially invited to support us or collaborate in this optimistic venture. We thank you for your time and prompt action!
Sustainable Development Goal (SDG 2030)
This is out of our long micro-level field survey and research in association with RBRF-Nature India Group at Sundarbans, we can find that the relation between Development and Downtrodden Population (DDP) becomes worse, especially for the landless struggles! Charity is the key component and the only silver lining towards the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG 2030). Social responsibility should not be borne on the Government, but to the common citizens of the country too! 1800 poor Fisher Women are leading a miserable life on the densely marshy delta of Sundarbans and are living scattered in the remotest villages. They belong to the unorganised, below-poverty-line community, who do not have alternative income but to collect fish and crabs on the densely forested tiger land; resulting in instant death either by tiger or crocodile attack, coupled with snake bite incidents, almost in regular intervals! They don’t even earn rupees 80/85 ($1), if not less! We are working hard to assemble public support to generate some site-specific alternative livelihood for them. So that, they can get rid of such a life-threatening profession! The ground reality demands your humanitarian support. Come forward, make a difference and in leave behind a humanitarian world!!
