Self Help Groups are started by non-profit organizations that generally have broad anti-poverty agenda. SHGs are established as local financial intermediaries with their own internal savings and credit business and access to bank refinancing.In recent years, however, Self-Help Groups have been mushrooming in the country to such an extent that they now occupy a significant place in nation building and social transformation process. Today, they have not only ensured that their presence is left in every corner of the Indian society but also have felt no area of development untouched. Hence, it can safely be stated that, without their involvement no development endeavour can be completed. No wonder then that, today, their partnership is the need of the hour and is sought from different quarters and in all development spheres
