The paper primarily confines itself to the economic aspects,
i.e. the issues related to equity in access to resource (credit)
and resultant income enhancement so that the livelihood security
is addressed in a sustainable manner. Taking cognisance of
resource allocation and access, Micro Finance sector strategy
paper defines, equity as "the judicious and democratic
control and sharing of the productive resources (capital)
by all the members and sharing of the profit, if any, in proportion
to their transactions". It argues that equitable access
to all the necessary production inputs and services including
credit is a prerequisite for the success of any production
- oriented programme. Fulfilment of this requirement helps
not only in improving income distribution but also in increasing
employment (Katar Singh).
