The recruitment drive received an overwhelming response from aspiring female candidates, reflecting a growing interest among women to break stereotypes and pursue careers in technical fields. Through the “Uraan” program, Tapal Tea and DTI are working together to enable sustainable career pathways for women in industrial roles such as electrical work.
