The implementation of the scheme Integrated Rural Deve lopment (IRDP) was made in 1978-79. This programme is now a component of the 20 Point Programme. The IRDP aims at a target group consist ing of the poorest among the poor including small and marginal farmers, scheduled tribes, scheduled caste and all other persons who live below the poverty line. The twin objectives of raising income and generating employment are to be achieved through investment in agriculture and ancillary occupations, cottage and small scale industries and particu larly in viable economic activity which suits the beneficiary family. The author's in the present study make an analysis of the in-put of investment in the amelioration of poverty condition.
