SHGs have opened accounts in The Thane District Central Co-op. Bank ltd.
Vasai Road and they deposit their savings in the banks.
Few of them have taken loans and started self employment activities.
SJAS has provided guidance to them in this regard during the SHG meetings.
Besides the above, we promoted few more new groups in this area.
We provided formation inputs to these new groups.
