520 _aThis stud y is a reflection of the inflexible stance against the conventiona1 approaches of poverty measurement and seeks to deve1op some sound ana1ytica1 and objective poverty indicators which are easily applicable and verifiable and could be used as a planning tool for identifying the poor. The selected indicators would help a planner to identify the target groups for any development intervention to alleviate poverty and to set priorities for the rural poor in rural development planning programmes (given the resource available ). A derived set of relevant poverty indicators based on the avail able literature and the perception of the people was used to identify the poo r and extent of poverty in the study a r ea. The identified indicators were further refined using multi variate analys is to extract critical determinants in order to obtain quick a nd re li ab l e poverty indicators which would ensure their pragmatic use a t the fi e l d l eve l . The respondents were classified into three groups that is , the very poor, the poor a nd the rich. The findings of t he study s how that majority of t he people in the study area are poor. Using these poverty indicators as an identifying norm, a poverty profile was built for the randomly selected respondents in each of t he categories to reflect the poverty problem more accurately. An attempt was made on developing two check lists for rapid rural appraisal to identify poverty groups in a given area which could be used by field level staff in their programmes . The study emphasised the need t o identify the target groups through the selected poverty indicators that ensure maxi mum benefits reached the poo r in order to alleviate poverty.
