Paper long abstract:
This paper is on Rajbanshi People of northern West Bengal: Access to Micro-Credit. These people are basically agriculturists, but their traditional verities, organic cultivation, livestock rearing, and handicrafts as well as various ways to utilise natural resources and food processing techniques are so important where rural banking, Self-Help Groups, micro-credit can find the way. That would be also useful in women empowerment directly improving the education and health systems at ground stage.
