Well done, that man!

Wonderful!

What a fantastic story. At last someone invents something that people actually need and which changes their lives. (Dragon's Den take note).

I agree JessM someone who's doing something really life changing. Brilliant!

Yes now that's more like a "hero"

I remember an aunt of mine in Eire used clean rags. I do not know what her daughters who are younger than me used.

I'm saddened by the realisation that school attendance rates were affected so much by something so basic. Women here also used to use rags - but sent them to the village washerwomen to boil and clean and send back. Some used grass/hay, I suppose it isn't as available in India!

Amazing!

The world could do with a few more people with his approach to life... that's warmed my heart this morning

Thank you for sharing this story, what a thoroughly nice man.

A beautiful human being. The butterfly and mosquito analogy and working heart to heart. Thanks bags.

What a wonderful man. Such determination in the face of fear and suspicion. It's sad that there is still such ignorance about this natural function.

What impressive values he has. A heart-warming story to start the day. Thanks, bags.

Completely brilliant.

A truly uplifting read with my early morning mug of coffee.

I've read about this amazing man before.

That man deserves to be recognised for his persistence.

Now there's a man of genius. It's the combination of persistence, technological creative thinking and challenging shame and prejudice.

Indian man invents cheap, home-made machine so that poor women can make their own sanitary pads.

Blued.
