Popis:	Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Patiala is playing an important role in preserving the art of Phulakri making and its popularity by developing novelty items through value addition. In the present study, an attempt was made to study the socio-economic profile and discuss the empowerment indicators of sixty women artisans who acquired training from the Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Patiala. The socio-economic profile of these women revealed that 53.3 per cent of them were educated up to matriculation and above whereas 75.0 per cent were above 35 years of age. The results revealed that 73.3 per cent women artisans had formed self help groups (SHG) while 26.6 per cent worked individually. It was also noticed that women who formed SHGs reaped the benefits of various developmental schemes initiated by Government of India because most of the schemes prefer a group or institution to extend the benefits of a particular scheme.
