On 18 July 2018, the national daily Dainik Byanner Alo published a special feature on Sonia Shobhan, Founder of Soptodha Polli, highlighting her inspiring journey as a woman entrepreneur.
What began as a small initiative driven by passion and purpose gradually grew into a sustainable social enterprise rooted in traditional handicrafts, jute-based products, and recycled jewelry. Through dedication, resilience, and a deep commitment to women’s empowerment, she has created opportunities for countless rural women to become self-reliant.
The feature reflects not only her entrepreneurial success but also her vision of preserving heritage, promoting sustainability, and transforming lives through dignified work.
