"Any woman who wants to roll papad can approach any of our branches and become a member," Swati Paradhkar, president of the cooperative, told Al Jazeera. Once inducted, a member is paid Rs 30 to roll 1kg of dough into papads. Papad is a crispy bread made from flour and spices [Deborshi Chaki/ Al Jazeera] "There is no upper limit to how much a member can roll and sometimes members also get their other family members to work with them," Paradhkar says. On joining, a member signs a pledge form, which serves as her formal entry, and thereafter she is considered a sister-member, where she can work six days a week and gets paid on a daily basis for the quantity rolled.
