Rural development primarily concentrates on addressing the needs of the rural economic sector in order to support sustainable economic development. Reducing rural poverty and promoting socioeconomic development in rural regions can be achieved through establishing jobs and revenue sources. In addition to low-interest loans, the rural poor require easy access to credit facilities including microinsurance, savings accounts, and loans in order to increase agricultural production, establish small businesses, and encourage entrepreneurship. By encouraging wage labour and Self-Help Groups (SHGs), microfinance is expected to boost rural employment by fostering self-employment and new business prospects. This will also reduce migration and accelerate rural development. The necessity for microloans originates from the fact that rural India needs sources of funding to reduce poverty and buy agriculture and farm inputs. It is an admirable effort to promote financial inclusion. And since the economy of India is built largely on agriculture, microfinance is a tool to enable farmers and rural residents to profit from their land. Thus, an effort has been made in this study to examine the value of microfinance for rural households in Block Akaltara, District Janjgir Champa, Chhattisgarh. India, as well as the effect of the external environment on microfinance to support rural development and poverty alleviation.
