Now Shamima vows to work with women, who are ill-fated like her. She
has 43 female members in her organisation working for her. She herself trains
the members and then provides them with work. She designs fabrics, makes
block-print, brush-paint and hand-embroidered saris. She also makes three-piece
dresses for women, and fatuas for men. She sells these products in her shop and
