INTRODUCTION
I. INTRODUCTION
As per the 2001 census, the total Indian population was 1027.01
million, of which women accounted for 495.73 million. Therefore, women
constitute 50 per cent of population, perform two third of work and
produce 50 per cent of food commodities consumed by the country. They
earn one third of remuneration and own 10 per cent of the property in
the country.
Organisation
The following are the community structures suggested for the rural
areas of the State:
Strategies
2. More information/training.
The needs identified at NHG level are shaped as micro plans which
are integrated into mini plans at ADS level and action plan at CDS level.
This will be the anti-poverty sub plan of the local body and this will
facilitate convergent delivery of Government programmes meant for the
poor. Rather than the traditional system of heavily subsidized approach,
‘Kudumbashree’ promotes self-help approach for building houses,
latrines, access to drinking water, sanitary facilities etc., availing the
minimum support from Government. Common infrastructural facilities
in the community strengthen them further.
REVIEW OF
LITERATURE
II. REVIEW OF LITERATURE
AGE
Singh et al. (1990) found that two third of the women of self-help
groups were young i.e less than or equal to 35 years of age in their study
conducted in Hissar district of Haryana state.
Hemalatha Prasad (1995) reported that majority of the group
members of self-help group were in the age group of 20-30 years, few of
them being 35-40 years.
EDUCATION
Prasad (1998) found that about 42 per cent of the women were
illiterates followed by 38 per cent who had studied up to primary level.
Puhazhendi and Jayaraman (1999) reported that on the whole 67
per cent were illiterate and 30 per cent had primary schooling, while in
the stabilized groups the percentage of illiterates were comparatively bit
lower at 55 per cent and those studied up to secondary school level
comprised 10 per cent. The study thus highlighted an inverse
relationship between illiteracy level and age of the group.
FAMILY TYPE
Anitha (2004) indicated that nearly one fifth (20.8 per cent) of the
farm women families had high dependency ratio, 55.8 per cent of farm
women had medium level of dependency ratio and less than one fourth
(23.03 per cent) of farm women had low dependency ratio.

ACHIEVEMENT MOTIVATION
ANNUAL INCOME
Prasad (1998) found that majority (60%) of SHG members had per
capita income ranging from Rs. 500 to Rs. 1000 per month.
Chandrakavate (1985) has pointed out that the IRDP has hardly
made any major dent on the poverty and living conditions of the
beneficiaries in the Sindhagi taluk of Raichur district, Karnataka, out of
the 300 families studied.
Jose (1989) found that 84.5 per cent of the beneficiaries accrued
incremental income due to IRDP schemes in the district of Udhampur
and Anathnag districts of Jammu and Kashmir. The per cent of
beneficiaries in different per capita annual incremental income range was
39.1 per cent up to Rs.3500, 22.3 per cent up to Rs. 700,13.6 per cent
up to Rs.1000 and 9.5 per cent above Rs.1000.
Hartwig (1999) noted that SHG of Africa have increased the family
income thereby ensuring food security and children’s education.
Hartwig (1999) noted that the SHG of Africa have increased the
family income thereby ensuring food security and children education.
Chanamma (1994) reported that the land holding and the annual
income of the participants was found to be significant with participation
level of beneficiaries of integrated child development scheme
implemented in Dharwad district of Karnataka state.
Reddy and Reddy (1995) reported that the age and education of
respondent had significant relationship with their level of participation,
whereas experience did not exhibit any relationship.
Prasad (1998) concluded that, the Gem cutting unit of DWCRA was
defunct due to the reasons like heterogeneity in selecting the
beneficiaries from different villages, ignorance about technicalities
involved, arbitrary selection of income generating activities against the
philosophy and spirit of group approach, lack of critical awareness about
the job performance, non-cooperation of family members hampering
participation.
Rao and Padmaja (1998) reported that the SHG members placed
forth the suggestions which included that they should undergo some
vocational training to utilize the money in a proper way and NGO run by
women should come forward to help them to start new business like
photo lamination, sericulture, basket making/weaving and typing.

DISCUSSION
V. DISCUSSION
The findings of the study are discussed in this chapter under the
following headings,
More than half of the beneficiaries were middle aged coming under
the age group of 35-50 years followed by young age and old age group.
Predominance of the middle aged group among the beneficiaries might
probably be due to the fact that they constituted a large section in the
society; they are more enthusiastic and responsible citizens than the old
age group and more experienced than younger group. Older women
represent the minority section among the beneficiaries owing to poor
health and less stamina. These findings were in line with the findings of
Singh (1997), Raghavendra (2002) and Chethana (2005) and
contradictory to the findings of George (2009).
Bildung
Family type
More than one third of the beneficiaries had low level of family
dependency ratio followed by those with medium and high level of
dependency. This was because majority of the members were having
nuclear family with less number of dependents having one or two
children and most of them were self-employed. Regarding non-
beneficiaries, a significant percentage had medium level of family
dependency ratio. This was followed by high and low level of dependency
ratio. Since majority of the non-beneficiaries were from nuclear family
they had very less dependent members. Majority of them were self-
employed or worked as a daily labour, this also contributes to the less
dependency ratio.

General information
Eligibility criteria
Economic activities
Cent per cent of the farmers were aware of the economic activities
like cattle rearing and chips preparation because these were the activities
traditionally practiced and does not require any training. The marketing
for these activities was very easy for these activities, apart from which
input requirement was less and cost effective. The findings are in line
with the findings of Muthhaya et.al (1983). This is followed by tailoring
and coffee powder preparation, probably because ‘Kudumbashree’ unit
offers reasonable charges for tailoring and coffee was easily available in
the place. This findings are supported by the findings of Tejaswini and
Veerabhadraiah (1997). The beneficiaries were aware of the catering
activities conducted by the ‘Kudumbashree’ members and they even run
canteens and hotels. Cleaning mission known as ‘Clean Kerala Mission’
is an innovative approach made by the ‘Kudumbashree’ members who
received wide acceptance due to dedicated work of group members. This
finding is supported by the findings of Raghavan (2008). Lesser
percentage of the members was aware of the fact that ‘Kudumbashree’
units had undertaken computer centre as the enterprise. This might be
due to the less proliferation of the enterprise due to the requirement of
technical skill. However, these findings were found to be contradictory
with the findings of Pallavi (2009).
Group activities
Training programmes
Table 9 revealed that more than half of the members made savings
in the range of Rs.1501 to Rs. 2000 per annum, while one-fourth of the
members made savings between Rs.1000 to Rs.1500. None of women
were having the habit of saving for future before joining ‘Kudumbashree’
group. Majority of the beneficiaries were able to save more than Rs.20
per week. Though poor, they were able to make savings and were happy
about decent savings they made. The savings collected at the group
meetings were deposited in the account of the group by any one of the
group member.
5.3.1.1.3. Mass media exposure: It was observed from the results that
there was highly significant positive relationship between mass media
exposure and awareness level. As the women got higher exposure
through television, radio, newspaper, magazines etc., they get more
information on different development programmes like ‘Kudumbashree’.
5.3.3.3.2. Mass media exposure: The results inferred that there was
significant positive relationship between mass media exposure and
extent of participation. Mass media exposure will load the women with a
multitude of information. The increased availability of information on
different programmes and other women’s participation in it increased the
participation level of beneficiaries.
5.3.3.3.3. Achievement motivation: It was noticed from the results
that there is a significant positive relationship between achievement
motivation and extent of participation of beneficiaries. Increase in
achievement motivation enables oneself to participate more and help
others to participate more.
5.3.3.3.4. Family type: The results revealed that there was a significant
positive relationship between family type and extent of participation of
beneficiaries. When the women are from a nuclear type of family, there
will be less members to convince and decision making power will be
more. This resulted in increased level of participation.
5.3.4.1.4. Mass media exposure: The results revealed that there was a
significant positive relationship between mass media exposure and
benefits derived by the beneficiaries. The awareness created by mass
media helps the women to gather more information about the
development programmes by which they can avail benefits in the form of
loan and improve their financial as well as the social status.
5.3.4.1.5. Family type: The results revealed that there was a significant
positive relationship between family type and benefits derived by the
beneficiaries. The members from nuclear family derived more benefit
from the different enterprises as they need less time to spend for the
family chores. They had a supporting family background which enabled
them to concentrate more on the programme.
SUMMARY
VI. SUMMARY
11. It was noticed that majority of the beneficiaries (83.3%) and non-
beneficiaries (80.0%) were living below poverty line.
13. Majority of the beneficiaries (83.3%) were fully aware and more than
three-fourth (76.7%) of the non-beneficiaries were partially aware,
when the overall awareness level is considered.
15. All the beneficiaries and more than half (53.3%) of the non-
beneficiaries were aware about the general information of the
‘Kudumbashree’ programme and cent per cent of the beneficiaries
were aware of who motivated them to join the group.
16. Cent per cent of the beneficiaries and non-beneficiaries were aware
that they should be a member of ‘Kudumbashree’ group and they
should be a resident of the village to avail the benefits of the
programme.
17. A great majority (91.7%) of beneficiaries were aware that both APL
and BPL members can join the group while only one-third of the non-
beneficiaries were aware of it.
18. Majority (83.3 per cent) of the beneficiaries and a significant
percentage (41.6 per cent) of the non-beneficiaries were aware of the
security requirement in order to avail benefits.
19. All the beneficiaries were aware of the mode of repayment and period
of repayment of the loan. One-third (33.3 per cent) of the non-
beneficiaries were aware about the mode of repayment of the loan
and one fourth (25.0 per cent) about the period of repayment.
20. All the beneficiaries were aware of cattle rearing and chips
preparation as an economic activity undertaken by the
‘Kudumbashree’ members. Least awareness (33.3%) was about the
computer undertaken as an enterprise. A great majority (91.7 per
cent) of the non-beneficiaries were aware that cattle rearing was
taken as an economic activity by the ‘Kudumbashree’ members.
36. More than half (58.3%) of the beneficiaries had saved between
Rs.1501- Rs.2000.
1. The criteria for the identification of the poor and the non-poor must
be revisited so that more BPL members can occupy the key
positions in the group.
