VILLAGE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

Product Description

You must be aware of the ever rising cost of living. But have you ever heard that about one third of rural India survives on a sum of just 5k to make ends meet for their basic household? This is urban – rural divide which calls for attention. 

Rural Development in India is very easy to understand, but quite tough to implement. It targets upon the development and upliftment of the sections of rural economies, that go through poverty problems and effectively targets on developing their productivity. It also stresses the need to address different various pressing problems of village economies that hamper growth and improve these areas.

Some areas that need immediate attention of village development in India are;

• Literacy
• Sanitation
• Public health
• Female empowerment
• Land reforms
• Enforcement of law and order
• Eradication of poverty
• Availability of credit
• Infrastructure developments, such as electricity, irrigation, etc.

“He who has never denied himself for the sake of giving, has but glanced at the joys of charity.”

Scope for improvement

• The primary area to improve is to offer providing employment in rural areas
• Improving the agricultural sector
• The infrastructure of village areas must drastically improve
• Quality education
• Modern technologies such as Organic Farming must be included to improve the profits and outputs.
• Access to easy loans and credit

The rural economy is an instance of an agrarian economy. But agriculture and farming are one of the essential and basic activities, the issue lies in the fact that the GDP share in the agri sector is on a stable decline. Also, about two thirds of the Population in your country depend on agriculture, which results in not up to the mark productivity, with the situation getting worse.

Also, in the year 1991, public investment declined, which also coupled with lack of needed infrastructure, employment, transport, credit, etc. Hence, the output of the agriculture has raised at only three percent in the year 2007- 2011. All these factors have been hurting the development process. Also, there is a need to target on village development and not just urban development.

It can be easily concluded, that for the development of the society in both urban and rural areas need to target upon. Villages need drastic changes in areas such as literacy, credit availability, drinking water facility, etc. The schemes that are in place already with the target of village development needs to act for the upliftment of rural India.
