His project termed- a sanitary napkin manufacturing unit with 200 pads an hour at Rs 2 each became a reality in Bareilly’s Reserve police Lines on Monday. His wife Meenu Pandey call the project ‘’Suraksha’’, for now the whole idea is to reach out to 6500 families.
Funded by Indian Oil Corporation (IOC) the pads will be initially available for girls of the police school. Dispensing machines have been installed soon residents of other areas may get it as well at the same price. It will in fact cover the Reserve Police Lines of all four districts of Bareilly Zone.
Rajesh Pandey stated’’ my attention towards this subject was drawn by the principal of the Police Modern School in Bareilly this year. There are many families of fourth class employees and constables. Many of them cannot afford sanitary pads for its high price’’.
A market survey was conducted and it was found that sanitary pads and even vending machines could be easily placed at a low cost on school’s premises at police lines or in a residential colony.
