Hi! Having 33yrs.of teaching experience I believe in A1performance

Rural women work physically more than urban women. They contribute in primary sector products while urban women are working more in tertiary sectors because they are educated in these lines. Rural ladies are not literate but have practical habits of working in fields & forests.
