Areas of Concerns under SGSY
Uneven spread (weak in the poverty pockets in the country)
Poor quality of SHGs
Inadequate flow of credit-Need of multiple doses of credit
High interest rates
Inadequate Manpower & lack of professionals to implement the
complex and process oriented programme
need a strong and huge team of community resource
persons
Inadequate institutional arrangement for training
Fund driven rather than need based
Little flexibility to states
Most of the SHG enterprises economically unviable
Need for up-scaling of placement linked skill development
projects
New Paradigm……
Where the poor participate as subjects
and not as objects of the development process,
it is possible to generate growth, human
development and equity, not as mutually
exclusive trade-offs but as complementary
elements in the same process
--- Meeting the challenge, Report of the Independent South Asian
Commission on Poverty alleviation, 1992
Pro-poor Perspective & Premises for Action...
Building organisations of the poor is an essential
prerequisite for poverty alleviation. Through these
organisations, the poor can save and invest efficiently
Empowerment of the poor is the means to poverty
eradication. Through empowerment, the poor can
also assert the right to resources intended for them
and enhance their dignity and self respect
Poor women can effectively overcome their double
burden through the same process.
The need for sensitive support mechanisms to
catalyse the process of social mobilisation.
--- Meeting the challenge, Report of the Independent South Asian Commission
on Poverty alleviation, 1992
Learnings regarding Way out of Poverty
Poor have desire & capability to come out of poverty
Capabilities are suppressed by variety of obstacles –
psychological, economic, social, religious, and political
Way out of poverty
- Organizing the poor into institutions that they truly own.
-Building and nurturing S.H.Gs, enabling them to access

meeting their consumption needs – food, health, education,
etc
acquiring assets for income generation

Poverty is an affront to human
dignity, and a cost to
the economy and the polity. Poverty
creates vulnerability, dependence
and
helplessness. It deprives society of
the productive energies of a
substantial
segment of its population,
contributing to instability and social
unrest.
