PERFORMANCE OF HOUSING CO-OPERATIVE SOCIETIES IN THANJAVUR DISTRICT – A STUDY FROM MEMBERS’ PERSPECTIVE

Issue Abstract

Abstract
Housing being one of the three basic needs of life always remains on the top priorities of any person, in any society and economy. As a human being, an individual needs his own space and privacy, which can be provided by the ownership of a house. The home is the basic need of the society. Home provides a platform to the family and the family is the most important social institution, which leaves its imprint on an individual for whole life. Thus housing deserves significant attention in the context of developing policies and strategies for human development. But still the majority of human populace lives in slums, shanties and temporary shabby shelters in rural
areas.
