To Take the Road Less Taken: Land Rights Open Up a Plethora of Empowering Opportunities for Lataben
Lataben, a feisty 36-year-old belongs to the Konjdi village of Mahuva block in Bhavnagar district in Gujarat. Belonging to the Kumbhar community, which officially comes under the “other backward caste category” in the region, she has been single-handedly raising her young kids ever since she lost her husband in 2014. Her grit and determination, as well as her self-reliance, can be understood the best by going back to her struggle for her land.
