Title

Make in India: Women Empowerment through the Self-Help Groups in North 24 Parganas District, West Bengal

Abstract

Abstract: Make in India: A couple of days back Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a flagship “Make in India” campaign with an objective to make India a manufacturing superpower. In this campaign local and foreign companies were urged to invest in India. The Government has selected 25 sectors where India can beat the world. Major among these are automobiles, chemicals, IT, pharma, electronics, design manufacturing, mining, bio-technology, textiles, ports, aviation, leather, tourism and hospitality, wellness and railways. Ministers related to manufacturing are also participating in the “Make in India” campaign. These 25 sectors will also focus on skill enhancement and job creation. To make this campaign a success, the government has made plans to relax foreign investment caps in construction. This will boost participation of companies in the ’100 smart cities’ project and affordable housing. The government has already made changes in the FDI caps in defence and railways and these have been eased to 49% and 100%, respectively. Women Empowerment is a process in which women challenge the existing norms and culture to effectively achieve their well-being. In India, Women Empowerment is a buzz word today. As a nation, India is committed to the empowerment of women. Though women are regarded as “the unsung heroine who works from dawn to dusk”, yet it is unfortunate that even the ignorant and worthless men had been enjoying superiority over women which they do not deserve and ought not to have. The World Bank has suggested that empowerment of women should be a key aspect of social development programme (World Bank, 2001). Self-Help Group is a homogeneous group of persons, usually not more than 20 persons, frequently women who join on a voluntary basis in order to undertake economic activities such as thrift, credit, use of a common asset on the basis of equality and mutual trust. The group sets its own rules and sees to it that all members observe these rules. The rules may be flexible as to differential interest rate on loan according to capacity to repay. Economic welfare of all members is the main aim of SHGs.
