Rahul Gandhi Focusing UP through self help groups

Rahul Gandhi and congress were focusing on UP through the women self help groups-Rajiv Gandhi Mahila Vikas Pariyojana (RGMVP). By winning 20 Lok sabha seats in the 2009 general elections , congress has dreaming a good result in the upcoming 2012 Assembly polls in the state.

Recent history taught the lesson that whenever the Dalits and Backward section favored a political party , then that party won the elections. Before 1980 majority of the Lok Sabha seats were won by the Congress and later it is reduced to only two seats. Congress is learning from the past and no they are showing more interest in the welfare of the Dalits and poor sections. One of the major movement was launched at Rae Bareli and Amethi constituencies of Rahul Gandhi and then Sonia Gandhi

.
RGMVP aims for the empowerment of women in rural areas by organising them in Self Help Groups (SHG), it also creates awareness among women about their political rights .According to Congress party "The RGMVP first identifies the economically deprived families. Then it gets their women to share a platform in the village and hold meetings for the success of the SHG."

This RGMVP follows the rules of SHG . One women from one family gets the membership in the one SHG and the meetings and other activities make them aware of their rights and duties. This SHG will help the rural women to get Bank loans and loans within the groups. It also utilize the possibility of Micro finance. "The banks are at their doorstep to ensure benefits for the women under the micro-financing system," said a Congress leader. "Rahul personally monitors the progress of the project and spends time meeting the self-help groups during his visit to the Amethi."
