Abstract:
The Global Multidimensional Poverty Index-2018 released by the UN noted that 271 million people moved out of poverty between 2005/06 and 2015/16 in India. The poverty rate in the country has nearly halved, falling from 55% to 28% over the ten-year period. Research on poverty reduction through entrepreneurship has often emphasized external help from government or charitable institutions. This study is designated to examine the roles of entrepreneurship in economic development of India. To achieve this, research questions and hypotheses were raised. Questionnaire was the research instrument used. Pre-tested questionnaires were administered to respondents to gather data for testing research questions and hypothesis. However, the responses of the participants were analyzed using simple format, which generated the frequency distributions and bar chart of the responses. The result generated indicated that entrepreneurship education programme reduces unemployment in the society and government policies encourage entrepreneurship development in the society. However, the research concluded that entrepreneurship education should be given more priority in higher institution of learning. This study therefore recommends that people should change their attitude towards home made goods so as to encourage entrepreneurship in the country.
