    LIVELIHOOD, POVERTY ERADICATION AND ROLE OF MICROFINANCE: A CASE STUDY OF TWO DISTRICTS IN WEST BENGAL A Thesis submitted to the University of North Bengal For the Award of Doctor of Philosophy in Economics By Sri Bhajan Chandra Barman Supervisor Dr. Sadhan C Kar Principal Dinhata College & Co-Supervisor Prof. K.K. Bagchi Department of Economics University of North Bengal October, 2016 Dedicated to My Beloved Parents Late Kshirod Ch. Barman & Late Sabitri Barman ABSTRACT The basic problem of our country is the problem of poverty and underutilization of the nationally cheap labour resource. India’s effort to eradicate poverty has a long history. As we have seen, since the inception of our planning exercise, that various antipoverty programmes were being undertaken for the poverty-stricken population to reduce their number who lie below the poverty line. However, we have seen that these programmes become a bundle of blossoms rather than blooming since the time of inception. We have had another important problem that also cope up side by side in our rural society is the minimal use of the working potentiality of the employable female adults. So long as these under-utilized rural female labour forces remained in under- utilization state, we will not bring any change in our rural society. The third problem that we like to point out here is the transitional aspect of our rural society that appears in the form of inter-state migration instead of traditional rural urban migration. This new kind of migration emerges in our rural society mainly because of the fact that we have failed to expand the good opportunity of livelihood before the rural employable adults.
