Introduction

Gram Tarang owes its genesis to Bapuji Rural Enlightenment and Development
Society (BREDS) a social developmental organization formed in 1983 to serve
the most marginalized, vulnerable rural communities and focus on their socio-
economic betterment through empowerment and sustainable livelihood
promotion. BREDS ventured into financial inclusion space in July 2009 in
collaboration with ATYATI Technologies and disbursed more than 200 Crores
government money earmarked for NREGS and Social Security Pensions till
date in over 800 villages of Srikakulam district through its Business
Correspondent Agents. BREDS also ventured into the states of Uttar Pradesh,
Bihar, West Bengal, Assam, Tripura, Odisha in 2010 and hived off the entire
business to a Gram Tarang Inclusive Development Services due to regulatory
issues.

Inspired by the Gandhian philosophy of Gram Swaraj, or „self-rule‟, a group of
residents of Dimili village (Kotturu Mandal, Srikakulam District) and other area
social activists founded the BREDS. Initially, BREDS opened night schools
specializing in adult education. These volunteer-supported classes targeted
Adivasis (tribal people) and members of „Other Backwards Castes‟ (OBCs) in
Dimili and nearby villages. The organization continued to evolve over the next
two decades and work with other target populations, but BREDS has
experienced its greatest growth from 2001 until today. Through a combination
of teamwork, commitment, strong leadership, government support, and donor
participation, BREDS is now recognized as one of the best NGOs in our district
of Srikakulam. Most importantly, it achieved these goals by gaining the trust of
the communities in which it is rendering services. The details of our
interventions are as follows:

 Natural Resource Management in Srikakulam District of A.P
 Sustainable Livelihoods and Food Security in Srikakulam District of A.P
 Gender issues & Women's Empowerment through Microfinance in
Srikakulam District of A.P
 Community Health and Education in Srikakulam District of A.P
 People's Self Governance in Srikakulam District of A.P
 Institution Building and Community Based Organisations (CBOs) which
are active in agri processing and marketing space.

Financial Inclusion

 Government of India and Reserve Bank of India have directed all Banks
to implement the Financial Inclusion Plans (FIP) to provide banking
service outlets in all villages with population above 2,000 by March,
2012. Our Bank has submitted a road map to implement the FIP using
information and communication and technology mode with Business
Correspondents net work i.e. branch less banking outlets. Bank has
empanelled M/s Bartronics India Ltd as service provider to give an „end
to end‟ solution for the FIP. Our bank is allotted with 1,149 villages with
population above 2,000 for providing such outlets. Of which, 1,054 are
located in Andhra Pradesh State. The Financial Inclusion Plan (FIP)
covering all the villages has been submitted to Reserve Bank of India.
 M/s Bartronics India Ltd., the Institutional Business Correspondent (BC)
appointed by Bank for the FIP implementation has deployed individual
B.Cs/ Customer Service Providers (CSPs) in each village for conducting
the banking transactions through Point of Sale (PoS) devices. The CSPs

have been deployed after a due diligence process undertaken by the
respective Branch Managers.

Financial Inclusion initiatives:

A. Electronic Benefit Transfer of Government Schemes – MGNREGS
(Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme
& SSP ( Social Security Pensions) :

Electronic Benefit Transfer (in 4 districts of A.P. Of which, Guntur &
Srikakulam districts under „One District – One Bank‟ model; East
Godavari district under service area approach and Warangal district (in
one pilot mandal covering 25 villages)

Number of villages covered 2665
Number of BCs/CSPs deployed: 2665

Number of beneficiaries enrolled 14.65 Lakhs

B. Smartcard-based transactions for SHG beneficiaries: :

The scheme is functioning on a pilot project basis at four branches. All
the Self Help Groups of Rayavaram, Anaparthi, Kadiam & Bibinagar are
undertaking banking transactions through B.C operated PoS devices at
their villages. By this method, the SHG women are saving their time and
money, since the normal banking transactions in their SHG accounts are
done at their doorstep.

Vision

To realize the Gandhian dream of gram swaraj by building a network of
autonomous village communities which are self-sufficient and self-reliant?

Mission

To capacitate the communities to become better informed and enlightened of
their rights and choices in order to control the environment, resources, and
levels of power by strengthening the institutional base necessary for social
transformation and human capital enrichment.

Goal

To facilitate the process of empowerment of tribal, Dalit‟s and all other
marginalized groups by reducing vulnerabilities, by increasing capacities, and
by liberating them from oppression and exploitation.

Objectives

 To capacitate the target community, focusing on role-transformation at all
levels, with a special focus on skill development that enables people to

control their environment

 To educate the rural poor, emphasizing the value of education with a
special emphasis on the promotion of women and the girl child. BREDS
promotes value-based and vocational education to further strengthen the
life-support system of the community.

 To facilitate access to health service mechanisms for the rural poor and
urban slum inhabitants by promoting health for all, particularly focusing
on women‟s and children‟s care in the area of reproductive health.

 To emphasize the need for the socio-economic empowerment of the
target communities, by pursuing the best possible avenues in all means
and ends.

 To protect and restore local ecosystems and the environment, taking
special steps for the protection of natural resources. BREDS promotes
effective management and treatment of land, water, and forest for the
sustainable livelihood promotion of the target community.

 To form and promote Self Help Groups (SHGs), Village Organizations
(VOs), and Mutually Aided Cooperative Societies (MACS), which work
towards their economic empowerment and a reconstruction of the rural
economy through a revival of the cooperative movement.

 To promote sustainable agriculture and value addition through
horticulture products and crops. This ensures sustainable food security,
enhances income potential, and generates employment opportunities
within the target community, thereby stemming the tide of migration.

 To promote and restore the traditional culture of the target community,
sustaining unity and integrity in the village atmosphere.

 To provide relief and rehabilitation packages to rural communities
affected by natural disasters and calamities.

 To facilitate all the government‟s developmental priorities to reconstruct
a better rural India that can realize the concept of gram swaraj.

GENDER AND LIVELIHOOD
Men and women have different roles, responsibilities and resources hence their
livelihoods are also different. Gender equity is multi-dimensional implying
legal, political, social and economic equality. Economic equality between men
and women means equal ability to support a standard of living. The factors
affecting women‟s participation are lack of education and training and
discriminatory attitude.

Some of the livelihood activities by NGOs are forming SHGs, small scale firms
and training programs.
CLASSIFICATION OF LIVELIHOOD
The classification of livelihood is basically made on three different sectors i.e.
primary sector, secondary sector and tertiary sector.
Primary sector is basically essential for farming, agriculture, and agriculture
allied production, along with fisheries and other basic livelihoods sources.
Secondary sector includes manufacturing firms like tobacco, wood, fuel,
textiles, machinery, leather, etc.

Farm based livelihoods are those where income/employment is derived from
primary sector, particularly from the production of unprocessed crops, rearing
livestock, horticulture, forestry, fisheries and from natural resources.
Livelihood Outcomes
The impact on the livelihood project leads to various environmental outcomes.
They are as follows:
 Better employment opportunities
 Eradication of poverty
 Better status of households
 Health and hygiene
 Community participation in the decision making process
 Institution and capacity building

Grain Bank Scheme
BREDS is working with huge number of schedule tribe families. Majority of
these families don‟t ensure food security during lean period. To avoid this
problem and make food secure for all the season with community participation
and self help, BREDS designed a program relating to promotion and revival of
traditional grain banks. Initially it was decided that BREDS provide grant from
the WHH project in the form of grains to the target subhadayam. This grant is
subject to the maximum limit of grain worth rupees ten to fifteen thousand only
(according to the village population).subsequently additional grant would be

extended to superior performing groups, with the nature of enhancement of their
savings.
Community Based Revolving Funds
BREDS is working with the schedule caste and tribal families in the Srikakulam
district of Andhra Pradesh. Basically these families have the capability to
practice some activity but due to lack of capital they are remaining as such. The
community based revolving fund is a channel of support by BREDS through its
WHH/GAA project, to the target schedule caste and tribal families in the target
area to promote and improve their livelihoods with financial assistance. This
ultimately improves the quality of life of the target families by increasing their
income generation power.
Making Insurance of the Unit and giving tag number to the Units.
Taking photos of the units in presence of BREDS (NGO) staff.
Submission of documents to BREDS.the documents are like- Receipts of the
beneficiaries,SHG resolutions, Subhodayam Resolutions, SHG pass book copy,
repayment schedule from the beneficiaries, the purchase and vendor document,
insurance copy and Tag number, photos of the units.

Through NREGS the community empowerment has been taken place as the
activity requires labor force to work in different development works in rural
areas. They are now leading a secured livelihood. This is a major source of
income generation for the tribal and dalit society. Due to such government
activities the migration of the beneficiaries has reduced to a great extent. Some
beneficiaries don‟t migrate as before. They have a better living condition as
before.
