Carving a better future
Lekhraj, from Gangora village in Rajasthan's Bharatpur district, learned marble carving from his uncle after Class 10 and has worked as an artisan for 18 years, selling statues across several cities. As the sole earner for his family of seven, he also farms wheat and mustard. With support for registration under the PM Vishwakarma Yojana, he now benefits from skill training, credit, and market linkages to grow his craft and income.
After DBJUP, Lekhraj gained financial stability and the joy of supporting his family.
He now dreams bigger and aims to master finishing and detailing techniques to elevate his artefacts, driven by passion, grit, and a constant desire to grow. He believes learning never stops and each new skill will sharpen his craft, and with confidence and determination, he is steadily building a brighter and more prosperous future.
