Abstract
Way to the Women Empowerment through the Mechanism of the Self Help Groups
Pallavi Mahajan
Women constitute 48.10 per cent of the population of India and only 27 per cent of this adult women population has a steady income, which makes women ‘poorest of the poor’ (World Bank 2019). It has been asserted that comprehensive progression and inclusive development in India would be conceivable only when women are considered as equivalent agents in the development debate (Mazumdar 2004). In this parlance, the development agencies have increasingly regarded ‘empowerment’ as an essential objective to improve the status of marginalised women in India.
