ABSTRACT
The status of women indicates the character of the country “said by
Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru”. Women empowerment is a process in
which women challenge the existing norms and culture, to effectively
promote their well being. The participation of women in self help
groups (SHG’s) made a significant impact on their empowerment
both in social and economical aspects. This study addresses women
empowerment through self help groups in Jalgaon District of
Maharashtra. The information required for the study has been
collected from both the primary and secondary sources. A Random
sampling method has been followed. Average and Percentage
analysis was carried out to draw meaningful interpretation of the
results. The results of the study revealed that the SHG’s have had
greater impact on both economic and social aspects of the
beneficiaries.
