| dc.description.abstract | The present investigation was conducted to study the impact of rural self employment training institute (RSETI) on income and employment generation and to seek feedback from the beneficiaries regarding the functioning of RSETI. The study was conducted in purposively selected Ludhiana district of Punjab state. A total of one hundred and fifty beneficiaries of RSETI, Ludhiana, who were engaged in income generation activities constituted the sample for the study. Data was collected through a well structured and pre-tested interview schedule. The study reported that majority of the beneficiaries had a medium level of mass media usage and fifty per cent of beneficiaries received information about RSETI EDP‘s from district industries centres. Findings also revealed that majority of the beneficiaries attended EDP‘s to enhance their income and to expand their previous enterprises. Majority of the beneficiaries had taken guidance regarding credit linkages with banks and consultancy services from RSETI after training. Half of the beneficiaries started their enterprise within six months of completion of the training programme. Large number of beneficiaries took the loan from commercial/cooperative banks for establishing/expanding an enterprise. Finding also revealed that male family members of the beneficiaries were more engaged in an enterprise than female family members. All the beneficiaries informed that there is an increase in their income after establishing/expanding the enterprises. Beneficiaries were also able to generate 365-629 mandays of annual employment through different enterprises. Beneficiaries perceived economic and social benefits from RSETI EDP‘s. Inappropriate location and lack of infrastructural facilities at the institute were the major constraints perceived by the beneficiaries. Appropriate infrastructural facilities, marketing support and organization of field visits were the major suggestions given by the beneficiaries for better functioning of RSETI. | en_US |
