Bees used to cause problems

When Sanjit Mahato started beekeeping, he used to have a lot of trouble with bee stings. Initially, he considered quitting beekeeping because bee stings caused his lips, hands, and cheeks to swell. But, despite the daily pain, burns and terror, he continued with his work. But then he realized that nothing is possible without hard work. Now he does not feel pain even when a bee stings him because his body has gradually adapted to it. Now he enjoys beekeeping and is earning a respectable living from it.

Only patience, expertise, and proper care can accomplish it. He said that apart from selling honey, he also earns extra by selling wax. Today, youth like Sanjit are inspiring others. Farmers like Sanjit have become models of self-employment in a profession where most people run after jobs. He said that he likes his work, but selling the product is a bit challenging.
