Self-Help Group women evicted from SARAS Fair despite Revanth’s empowerment claimsAt the SARAS Fair 2025 in Hyderabad, several Self-Help Group women were asked to vacate their stalls to accommodate participants from other states, despite earlier government promises of support. The fair, inaugurated by Minister D. Anasuya, was meant to empower SHG women, but many now allege mismanagement, lack of facilities, and broken assurances. By Telangana Today Published Date - 19 September 2025, 11:46 PMHyderabad: Even as the Congress government boasts of empowering Self-Help Group (SHG) women and transforming them into crorepatis, women entrepreneurs say they are facing a raw deal on the ground. The venue has 106 stalls that showcase handicrafts, handlooms and other products manufactured by SHG women tied to organisations including SERP, MEPMA, We-Hub, ALEAP and TRIFED. The government could have arranged more stalls,” one SHG woman said.
