District Chamba is one among the backward districts of Himachal Pradesh. The present study covered whole of the area of Chamba district in Himachal Pradesh.

Largely, the study is based on the observation through direct interviews with stakeholders ranging from district/tehsil/block level Govt. Officials, Bank officials, office bearers of Panchayati Raj Institutions, Technical hands and the labourers i.e. beneficiaries working under MNREGS.
