Question

Women participation off gram sabha

Answer 1

Explanation:

Kudumbashree, the poverty eradication programme launched by the Government of Kerala in 1998 comprised neighbourhood groups (NHG) that were destined to be more than just thrift and credit agencies; the goal was to have them be forums for planning and development within the gram panchayat.

As a result, unlike most self-help groups (SHGs) across India, which focussed just on financial empowerment, the NHGs in Kudumbashree were considered as development agents within the gram panchayats right from the beginning of the programme.
