Scheduled Caste Women Empowerment In Jaijaipur Development Block

Abstract

There is a majority of Scheduled Caste population in Jaijaipur Development Block of Janjgir-Champa district. The condition of SC (Scheduled Caste) women, having been backward for thousands of years, continues to be deplorable, but for over the last few decades there the women have had a new zeal and enthusiasm, definitely this is an indicator of a positive change.  The self-help groups, education and awareness have given special contribution in bringing about the change. Easy approval of loans by banks has also ensured a prompt change, which has directly benefited the dalit, exploited and backward women.
