NRLM (National Rural Livelihoods Mission)

The package offers a powerful lens into the rural self-help group (SHG) ecosystem in India, capturing detailed data on member demographics, financial inclusion, and institutional support. It includes indicators on gender, caste, religion, disability, and poverty levels, alongside insights into Aadhaar linkage, bank account access, and SECC integration. The data also tracks SHG formation, promotion, and credit flow at the block level, helping users assess the reach, depth, and impact of rural financial systems. Ideal for researchers and practitioners, this package provides a grounded, data-rich foundation for understanding and improving grassroots development.
