Women have great potential to promote agricultural related (secondary agriculture) enterprise. As women play a major role in dairy, they may be motivated for entrepreneurial ventures. Women can be encouraged through local government development organizations for gender sensitization, training, obtaining credit and access to the market. National Dairy Research Institute, Karnal promoted ten women self-help groups in three districts of Haryana under the project of Department of Science and Technology, Ministry of Science and Technology, Government of India. Thus women can become capable of better livelihood through their group activities. The women of the group earn an additional income of between Rs 5000 and Rs 20000 per month.

In this paper, a model for development of Self-Help Groups (SHGs) has been presented in perspective of India to ensure the Economic and Social development of the country and addressing, simultaneously, some of the major challenges being faced by India. Adequate microfinancing to the SHGs and developing entrepreneurship among its members may help in achieving several targets like poverty alleviation, women empowerment, employment generation, homogeneous development etc. If planned properly, the SHGs can become an instrument for all round and all-inclusive development of India or any other similarly placed developing country. SHGs may also play an import role in the endeavour of India to become a five trillion economy, to achieve self-sustainability and to attain the Sustainable Development Goals.

The objective of current study is to identify different dimensions of women empowerment, problems and challenges such as perceived tension of individual self -help group member in the process of women empowerment, and suggestions to improve women empowerment in the context of India. The 351 responses were collected via stratified random sampling from members of self -help groups, and an exploratory principal component analysis is undertaken to identify the number of components that underlie the women empowerment. Further, a confirmatory factor analysis is used to confirm the factors in the study. The findings indicate five broad dimensions (i.e. economic, political, social, legal, psychological), four different types of perceived individual tensions (i.e., economic, social, legal, technology-oriented learning), and four significant categories of capacity building measures (i.e. training on governance, technology-driven livelihood support, promoting networking, social justice & harmony) of women empowerment.

The current research seeks empirical insights into the women empowerment (WE) by focusing on the role of the self-help groups (SHG), capacity building (CB) measures and perceived individual tension (T). By applying multiple regression analysis on 351 survey responses in India, our findings suggest that WE emerges from two distinct attributes of the SHG members: surface-level (e.g., age, marital status, no. of children, income, whether spouse working, any other assistance) and deep-level (e.g., years of SHG membership, amount of loan availed, purpose of loan, educational level). Moreover, WE is a combination of five broad dimensions such as economic, political, social, legal and psychological empowerment. Further, a set of capacity building measures (i.e., training on governance, technology-driven livelihood support, promoting networking, social justice and harmony) helps to empower women. The study also explores four different categories of perceived individual tension (i.e., economic, social, legal, and technology-oriented learning) and their effects on WE. Finally, the perceived tension moderates the relationship between deep-level SHG attributes and WE.
