Sarita is a very empowered lady with two teenaged sons. About 10 years back her husband took ill and due to a hip injury could not continue to work. Sarita took charge and started tending to her farm and became the primary income earner in her family. Today she goes from village to village helping women learn about the Internet. For herself she has used the Internet for all sorts of farming and cattle related information. Before she had the information her yield was 100 square feet, however with all the farming advice she found online, the farm now yields 150 square feet of crop.
She also helps women in her village learn about Rajasthan's welfare schemes like the Bhamashah Yojana, which offers medical reimbursements. Her own family has applied for the Shauchalaya Yojana — the toilet-building sanitation scheme.
