To find out the relationships between the independent variables with their changes in livelihood development (dependent variable) Pearson’s correlation coefficient test (r) was used. Out of 12 selected characteristics 9 characteristics namely age (r - 0.157**), education (r -0.143**), family size (r - 0.210**), farm size (r - 0.212**), credit received (r - 0.148**), credit utilization (r - 0.147**), grant received (r - 0.300**) credit repayment behaviour (r - 0.479**) and innovativeness (r - 0.466** of the beneficiaries contribute of livelihood development was found significant and training received (r-0.045), savings behaviour (r- 0.091) and income generating activities (r0.006) contribution of livelihood development was not found significant.
