The success story: Regaining the Hope of Life
Ms. Alani Chaudhary and Prem Rana is a blind couple, residence in Beltar VDC Udayapur have been spending happy married life. They were deprived of education and no skill training at all. There were no persons to support them. Before getting membership in association, they fulfilled their needs by begging something to the people. They didn’t have any skill by which they could earn money. When they came in contact to the association, they have got chance to learn various vocational skill including leadership, the spring came in their lives. They learn to make the candle and by selling it, they could earn money for their livelihood. Now, they have good confidence in their skill and the commitment to do the work. But economic constraint is the main barrier to establish the small industry or to in best for their business. Not only this, the association itself hasn’t any resource to provide the loan or to establish the industry whereby many BVI persons like this couple would get opportunity as employees.

Purpose of Village Development Committee
The purpose of village development committees is to organise village people structurally at a local level and creating a partnership between the community and the public sector for improved service delivery system. A VDC has a status as an autonomous institution and authority for interacting with the more centralised institutions of governance in Nepal. In doing so, the VDC gives village people an element of control and responsibility in development, and also ensures proper utilization and distribution of state funds and a greater interaction between government officials, NGOs and agencies. The village development committees within a given area will discuss education, water supply, basic health, sanitation and income and will also monitor and record progress which is displayed in census data bhakunde's see to 12 Himalays.
