On the occasion, Dr Sehrish stressed upon the officials that in order to achieve the target of 11,000 SHGs by the end of September, each block has to mobilize their cadre and community resource persons for achieving the same.

She assured the officials that all the necessary support will be provided by  JKRLM in terms of resource persons, capitalizations, start-up funds to the new Community-Based Organizations (CBOs).

The Mission Director emphasized on the need to give boost to the scheme in both the divisions and federate more rural women into the fold of SHGs.
