Hi all, this video shot at Dawlepada, in Palghar district of Maharashtra gives the TTP usage experience sharing of the local village woman.
The Twisted Tape Packs (named as 'Mandoya' by villagers due to their design) are retro fiitings meant for traditional Indian mud cook stoves. They do not tend to change the cook stove design by any means and are easy to use & maintain. These have multiple benefits in terms of savings in firewood consumption, meal time preparation and time in firewood fetching activity. Thus drudgery for women is reduced and health issues due to smoke emission and soot accumulation also minimized
