Sudha Varghese, popularly known as Cycle Didi, who worked for the upliftment of the poor and downtrodden of Bihar, was honored with the Padma Shri.
Even today there are some people in this society who think of others before themselves and dedicate their whole life to improve their life. Sudha Varghese is a direct example of this. Sudha is originally from Kerala but she has dedicated her entire life to improve the lives of downtrodden and poor of Bihar. Even after 7 decades of independence, there was not much improvement in the conditions of the Mahadalit and very poor 'Musahar' caste of Bihar. The people of this caste are forced to eat moose i.e. rats to live even today. Today, the responsibility of helping this society has been taken up by Sudha Varghese, whose initiative has brought about a change in the condition of the Musahar caste. This is the reason why the Government of India has honored Sudha Varghese with the Padma Shri award for her work in the field of social reform. It was not easy for Sudha Varghese to travel from Kerala to work for the people of Bihar. Let us know the inspirational journey of his life.
Born in Kerala but working for Bihar,
Born in Kerala, Sudha Varghese started working with The Sisters of Notre Dame Institute in her early life. In 1965, Sudha was sent to a convent school in Bihar from this institution. Sudha, who went to Bihar for the first time, was shocked by the discrimination and poverty prevailing in the society there. Very poor people lived around his convent school and in the midst of this he came to know about the Musahar caste. According to Sudha, “These are also the poorest of the poor and it is rare for any government scheme to reach them. They have to struggle for the next meal every day, besides diseases like leprosy are a daily reality here.
raised voice for women,
When Sudha came here at a young age, she had little understanding of the English language, but to help others, she acquired knowledge of English and Hindi language. Later on, Sudha studied law and also obtained a bachelor's degree. In 1987, Sudha started Nari Gunjan NGO from Bihar. Sudha Varghese gradually emerged as a mirror for the women society. He started a voluntary organization in 1987. Whose name was named 'Nari Gunjan', the voice of women. Through this, the aim was to advance women by making them aware of their legal rights. Now this organization is running in the name of Nari Gunjan in many districts of Bihar.
determined to end poverty,
Seeing the helplessness of the people and their conditions, Sudha Varghese decided to do something for this section of the society. For this she packed her belongings and went to Jamsaut village of Musahar caste of Patna. Where people are unable to fill their stomachs, the provision of electricity, water and toilets is far away. This community had no connection with education even remotely. The children of the Musahar caste were discriminated against. He did not even have the right to sit on the bench in the school. They were called as untouchables. Where there was this condition of education, the people of the community did not have employment. As such, they were paid less wages than others in the work of wages.
The responsibility of educating the society,
Sudha Varghese knew very well that only through education the biggest difficulties can be overcome. So he took the initiative to educate the girls of the Musahar caste. For this, he talked to educate girls in every house of the village and worked to convince the families. During this time he himself studied law and in the year 1987 opened an NGO named 'Nari Gunjan'. Through this, he encouraged women to move forward by making them aware of their legal rights. Due to education and learning of skills, women were able to earn employment. The women of the Musahar caste also have their own 'women band'. Sudha's NGO, which makes villagers aware about education, cleanliness, rights and living a dignified life, has been associated with about 850 self-help groups and gradually it has reached to other five districts of Bihar.
'Prerna' school started for girls,
Sudha Varghese started a school called Prerna in 2005 to teach girls better education and skills in Bihar. The girls studying in this school were mostly girls whose previous generations had not even stepped on the school door. Along with giving education to the girls here, they are also trained in sports, studies, handicraft work and karate. Presently the girls coming out of this school not only started participating in inter-state competition, but they also took part in a competition in Japan. After the success of Prerna School, its second branch was also opened.
Known as 'Bicycle Didi',
In the initial days, Sudha Varghese used to reach among the Dalit community by bicycle and make people aware. People started calling her by the name of Cycle Didi. In this way she is also known as Cycle Didi.
Has been honored with many honors including 'Padma Shri',
Sudha Varghese has been honored with many honors for working towards the society, uplifting the downtrodden and the poor. Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has honored him with the Maulana Abul Kalam Azad Award for his outstanding work in the field of education. Not only this, for his excellent work, the Government of India has honored him with the country's highest honor 'Padma Shri'.
Sudha Varghese, who has devoted her entire life for the upliftment of the backward class of Bihar for the last thirty years, is truly an inspiration for millions of people today. He has written his success story on the basis of his hard work and dedication.
