The study was undertaken among 120 Stree Shakthi Programme (SSP) beneficiaries to identify the constraints faced by them and suggestions to improve its functioning. The findings revealed that majority of beneficiaries expressed poor marketing network for their products (95.48%), followed by delay in getting loans (95%) and requires more number of visits to avail loan in the bank (91.67%). With respect to the suggestions to improve the functioning of SSP were assured market for their products (100%), provide loans at lower interest rate(100%), organize more training programmes on value addition (97.50%) and provide proper place for market (95.48%). Hence, the concerned agencies should establish marketing terminals at local level and advance the loans in short time to enhance the rural women empowerment.Keywords

The study was conducted in the purposively selected two taluks of Chitradurga district based on maximum number of Stree Shakthi Groups (SSG's). From each taluka, 12 SSG's and five members from each SSG's were selected randomly thus, making a total sample of 120. The results revealed that majority of respondents belonged to young age, high level of education, nuclear family, agriculture as main occupation, high social participation, high extension participation, high mass media exposure, had income up to Rs.20,000/- and medium livestock possession. Hence, it can be concluded that strategic manipulation of these variables of SSP beneficiaries through extension educational activities can motivate them to avail the benefits of the women empowerment programme.Keywords
