Abstract

Since last three decades economic advancement has brought tremendous changes in the lives of rural women in developing country ’If rural area of India will develop then India become the developed country hence it is mandatory to focus on rural development especially rural women development as “she is the backbone of family”. To make the India economically strong, rural women workers should be empowered. One of the paths is Financial Inclusion of rural women workers. Women who participate in any physical or psychological work on certain wages are called women workers. Rural women workers are constructively participating in the process of economic and social development of the society. In context to rural society, women workers are involved in agriculture, small scale supplementary occupations, own business, and other related occupations. Rural women workers are the key factors to eradicate poverty and improve the well-being of their families, yet they continue to face serious challenges as a result of gender-based stereotypes and discrimination that deny them equitable access to opportunity, resources, assets and service. This research focused on the real situation of financial inclusion of women workers in Nagpur’s rural area. This study helps to find out the solution for financially excluded women workers and provide the recommendations regarding financial inclusion of rural women workers.
