Inguda fruit benifits. Even though today the market is full of expensive and branded detergent powder-sobuns, but people in the rural areas of Chhatarpur district still wash clothes in the old way. Actually, a tree is also found in Chhatarpur district, whose fruit is cleaned with dirty clothes. This fruit is called Ingua in the regional language. It is also called Ingud or Hingot or Desert Date. Kalicharan Soni, who hails from Chhatarpur, says that 40 years ago, soap and detergent powder did not run in the village.

This fruit named Ingua resembles lemon. When it remains raw, it is green and becomes yellow when cooked.
Such clothes are washed
Kalicharan explains that the Ingua tree contains 4 to 5 swear fruits. We bring 8 to 10 fruits in our house. The pulp comes out inside these ripe fruits. This pulp is added to the water like detergent powder is mixed in water. It means to say that the pulp of the fruit has to be rubbed in the water, after which there is foam in the water.
Whenever we had to wash clothes, we used to put the pulp of this fruit in the water a day before. The next day, dirty clothes were put in the water. After some time clothes were washed. Kalicharan says that some people of the village still wash clothes in the old way. Dirty clothes also shine in this old way.
