S. Gurunathan from Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore states in his article "Rural Poverty-irrigation Nexus in Tamil Nadu" states that it is only in the second half of twentieth century only that the poverty and the poor have come to be matters of our concern and obligation. After a long neglect of the poor during the British rule, the measures adopted after independence signify the recognition of poverty and the social responsibility for alleviating it. How did it happen? What have we done? How far have we succeeded? Before attempting to answer these questions, let us first take up the question of the concept of poverty. Poverty is a situation that gives rise the discrepancy between what one has and what one" should have” Read more Volume 6 no 1

 

V.S.Kanchana, N.Yesodha Devi and S.Sujatha from PSGR Krishnammal College for Women,   Coimbatore explain in their article “Women Entrepreneurs: Driving Factors and Growth – A Study in Coimbatore District” that the position of women and their status in any society is an index of its civilization. Women are to be considered as equal partners in the process of development. But, because of centuries of exploitation and subjugation, Indian women have remained at the receiving end. Women in India have been the neglected lot. They have not been actively involved in the mainstream of development even though they represent equal proportion of the population and labor force. Primarily women are the means of survival of their families, but are generally unrecognized and undervalued, being placed at the bottom of the pile. Women as an independent target group, account for 495.74 million and represent 48.3% of the country’s population, as per the 2001 census. No country can achieve its potential without adequately investing in and developing the capabilities of women. In the interest of long-term development it is necessary to facilitate their empowerment. In many developing countries, including India, women have much less access to education, jobs, income and power than men. Even after five and half decades of planned development Indian women have not achieved expected success in the mainstream of life. Our country will be unable to have a competitive edge over others until and unless the status and role of women is improved.Read more Volume 6 no 1
