VOCATIONAL TRAINING PLAYS A MAJOR ROLE AS A COMMUNITY DEVELOPER

We all know the term BPL i.e. below poverty level. But we must admit that this level differs according to the economic condition of a particular country .It can also be said that it is a relative term .Likewise self-sufficiency and quality of life also differ .This poverty line is the indicator of those who depend upon the rest of the community for their livelihood. From this point of view we may say Income Generating Programmes work as a bridge to minimise the gap between the haves and the have nots .Human resource is the only driving force for the economic development of a nation .The negative aspect of the people at or below poverty line can be redressed by equipping  them with knowledge , skill, self-sufficiency and values to become the positive contributor of the society .Income generating plan might attract even other who do not belong to below poverty line as it covers various occupations ,industries and groups of the community not simply the poor. Vocational training and its execution by different co-operatives and self-help groups can play a major role in this regard.it may even become the source of main community developer in a developing country. Such trainings will open the avenues of empowering people of their exact needs by developing self-confidence through team spirit and thereby continuously upgrading a learning process of particular skills of a definite community.
