Role of Co-Operative Societies in Socio Economic Development of Rural Folk
Auto-Rickshaws are the important means for urban mobility and an important part of sustainable transportation, as well as a mode for quality life in Indian cities. Integrating Auto-rickshaw services as a feeder mode complements public transportation systems, ensuring connectivity and easy access throughout the city. Auto-rickshaws also bridge the gap between public transport and door-to-door conveyance services, providing an alternative to private vehicles especially in the rural areas. Many studies have revealed that majority of the Auto-rickshaw drivers are addicted to tobacco and they belong to low income category. Purchasing a brand new or Pre-owned auto Rickshaw for this category people is a dream because of less or no financial support from the commercial Societies. This study mainly focused on how Co- operative Societies provide financial assistance to rural folk especially rural Muslim auto drivers in selected region in Karnataka and how it helps to improve their socio- economic conditions. The study also highlights how sustainable development can be done especially in rural areas by providing various financial supports based on the requirement of the people. This study concentrates on the current socio-economic conditions of Auto-rickshaw drivers, and the role of Co-operative Societies in socio- economic development of rural Muslim Auto drivers in the study region.
