SHG s has proved beneficial to the rural poor justify the statement

Answer 1

A self-help group (SHG) is a village-based financial intermediary committee usually composed of 10–20 local women or men. A mixed group is generally not preferred. Most self-help groups are located in India, though SHGs can be found in other countries, especially in South Asia and Southeast Asia. 
SHGs are novel and innovative organizational setup in India for the women upliftment and welfare. All women in India are given chance to join any one of SHGs for training and development, so as to be prospective entrepreneur and skilled worker. The SHGs are promoted by the Government as if women in India may not be resourceful enough to be entrepreneurs. When the SHGs arrange training facilities to carry out certain kind of work which are suitable for women in India, bank must arrange financial assistance to carry out manufacturing and trading activities, arranging marketing facilities while the Governments will procure the product of SHGs, arrange for enhancing the capacity of women in terms of leadership quality and arranging for the management of SHGs by themselves so as to have administrative capacity. As a social movement with government support. SHGs become more or less a part and parcel of the society​. 
Concept of Self Help Group The concept of self help groups had its origin in the co-operative philosophy and the co-operators by and large, including the National Federations in the credit sector, could not think of any better SHG than a primary co-operative credit society itself.2 As SHG are small and economically homogenous affinity groups of rural poor, they are voluntarily coming together for achieving the following. 
1. To save small amount of money regularly. 
2. To mutually agree to contribute a common fund. 
3. To meet their emergency needs. 
4. To have collective decision making. 
5. To solve conflicts through collective leadership mutual discussion. 
 6. To provide collateral free loan with terms decided by the group at the market driven rates. 

Today, the self help group movement is increasingly accepted as an innovation in the field of rural credit in many developing countries including India to help the rural poor considered a vehicle to reach the disadvantaged and marginalized section, which in the normal course cannot avail of credit facility from the bank. 

Answer 2

Self help groups helps themselves by having a sum of money by which there is no much worry of financial issues.

Rural poor who takes loan in banks may fall in debts , who takes in landlords may suffer but who takes loan in SHG keeps tensions away.
