Why a Womens Co-operative sugar factory ?
Mrs. Viajaymala Bajirao Desai founder / chair person of IGBMVSSK was encouraged by the policy on women declared by the Govt. of Maharashtra on 22nd June 1994. For the first time in the long history of India, right to property was given to women in the true sense. Since 85% of the work in the fields is done by women, Mrs. Desai felt it was time for these women to get their due recognition. Thus as the name suggests, IGBMVSSK’s motto is to ensure overall development of women and children in the area.
