The concept of private microfinance had started with an objective of helping the poor by offering them small loans with little or no collaterals. The availability of loans became a easy affair, leading to an increased wish list of the poor. Lack of sufficient information to both parties incepted trouble. Unable to pay back the installements in time led to cohesive collection of the collectors.Unending cycle of debt forced many farmers to suicide. The portrayal of the whole event made the poor distance themselves from the MFI.<br /><br /><br />Sameera Mushini<br />p32038Sameera Mushinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07896069327389819528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6082091182757859887.post-88032790008567097752012-02-13T09:16:53.054-08:002012-02-13T09:16:53.054-08:00A certain weightage is allocated for Class partici...A certain weightage is allocated for Class participation in the evaluation scheme for some subjects.

But the presence of naxals in under developed regions directly/indirectly leads to the sustenance of its deprived condition. This results mainly from the unwillingness of agents of development to work in these regions. The resources employed are wasted or not targeted to local development. An institution intended itself became counter-productive to its objective.<br />Ajesh-32002guesswho_ajhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17006273976465687497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6082091182757859887.post-56043099200269042152012-02-12T10:08:41.703-08:002012-02-12T10:08:41.703-08:00Joint cultivation linked to socialist collectiviza...Joint cultivation linked to socialist collectivization started in socialist countries like erstwhile USSR, China, North Vietnam etc, aimed at enhancing the income of the poor by cutting down the transaction cost, ensuring risk-sharing and liberating people from debt trap.

Instead the government chose to continue with efforts to educate the masses through a vast, centralised machinery and superstructure of staff, infrastructure and resources. This system trained Indians in rote learning and book cramming so that they could serve British officers in low rung positions like clerks. The same system exists today with minor changes and we are majorly producing highly qualified and well equipped 'CLERKS'.<br />Mayank Gupta(32022)BLOGupta !https://www.blogger.com/profile/14816195074023779690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6082091182757859887.post-4606168411980004832012-02-11T04:50:48.878-08:002012-02-11T04:50:48.878-08:00If we look at the government then we find that som...If we look at the government then we find that some of it's policies were aimed to liberate people but ended up being counterproducive for ex-the loan waiver given to the farmers in 2008 ,now it did bring some relief to the farmers but it set a wrong culture as in 2009 the number of defaulting farmer went up considerably hoping that this year also government will waive off their loan and thus ended up being counter productiveHARENDRA SINGHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10072703434848426465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6082091182757859887.post-71384337706918627122012-02-10T20:33:39.623-08:002012-02-10T20:33:39.623-08:00Many management institutes in India fall in this c...Many management institutes in India fall in this category.
