Housing Project for Farm widows and distressed women
The high incidence of suicides of farmers in Marathwada and Vidarbha has resulted in a growing number of single-woman-headed families experiencing increasing poverty. The situation of widows after their husband’s unnatural demise is much worse than that of other affected family members. They have to cope with the unexpected and sudden loss of their husbands as well as respond to the impacts of the agrarian crisis and their husbands’ indebtedness. In addition, they witness discrimination, ostracism, and denial of their legal share of their marital homes, properties, and agricultural land.
