Gangodi Didi was the first to join the Namkeen Unit when it opened in 2023. Her upbeat attitude and enthusiasm stood out, making her a quick choice for the team. As the oldest member, she's affectionately called 'Aai' by others. Always smiling and a fast learner, Gangodi Didi handles everything from making namkeen to packaging. Working at the unit has given her a sense of freedom and financial independence.
"I walk almost 5 km every day from my remote village to get here. Once, I even saw a leopard on the way. I might be the oldest, but I can do what everyone else does just as well. My secret to happiness is staying active as long as my body allows. For me, age is just a number."
