OVERVIEW

• Our economy is developing fast, Industries and big corporate are going globalised, with liberalization, tremendous changes are being felt in IT, manufacturing, Service sector, but nobody thinks of the rural development to make it as fast as in these sectors.

• Then what all this progress and development means? Benefitting to 30% in the total population, already developed and above poverty does not mean any development.

SOME QUESTIONS THAT TAKE YOU MORE DEEP IN TOPIC.

(For us this are the MOTIVATIONAL QUESTIONS for selecting this topic )

QUESTION : 1

• While we have international fully air conditioned schools in our cities, the schools in villages still don’t have benches and chairs, leave alone computers. We have a huge shortage of teachers in rural areas, and the school drop out rate is huge.

WHY RURAL AREAS LAG BEHIND CITIES BY DECADES?

QUESTION : 2

• In cities, we have wide roads, flyovers and underpasses while many villages still don’t have proper roads. Urban-rural road links can play a vital role in rural growth.

WHY RURAL AREAS LAG BEHIND CITIES IN GROWTH ?

QUESTION : 3

• Employment opportunities are hardly there in villages which forces youth to move to cities creating imbalance in the ecosystem and leaving the villages deprived.

WHY LACK OF OPPORTUNITY IN RURAL AREA ?

QUESTION : 4

• While we may have numerous hospitals, nursing homes and medical facilities in cities, villages neither have health awareness nor health facilities.

• Many of villagers have to flock to cities for even basic treatments.WHY RISING DISCONNECT BETWEEN CITIES

AND VILLAGES ?

Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana(PMGSY)

• Launched December, 2000 100% centrally sponsored scheme to provide connectivity to unconnected habitations Road connectivity to all habitations with a population of thousand (500 in case of hilly or tribal areas) with all weather roads by 2009

• lead to rural employment opportunities, better access to regulated and fair market, better access to health, education and other public services

• Bridge the rural-urban divide and pave the path of economic growth.

Indira Awas Yojana (IAY)• Since 1985-86 to help build or upgrade

homes to householdsbelow the poverty line

• Ceiling on construction assistance under the IAY currently is Rs. 25,000/- per unit for the plain areas and Rs.27,500/- for the hilly terrains/difficult areas.

• To impart transparency to the selection process of beneficiaries, a 'permanent waitlist' was prepared under IAY.

• 60 lakh houses were to be constructed in a period of 4 year from 2005-06

• Against this overall target, 15.52 lakh were built in 2005-06 and 14.98 lakh homes in 2006-07

Accelerated Rural Water Supply ProgrammeARWSP

• Central government supplements States’ efforts for providing safe drinking water and sanitation by providing financial and technical assistance under two centrally sponsored programmes – 'Accelerated Rural Water Supply'

(ARWSP) – 'Central Rural Sanitation

Programme' (CRSP). – By 2009, 55,067 uncovered, 3.31

lakh slipped back and 2.17 lakh quality affected habitations are to be addressed

– approximately 6 lakhs habitations where water supply is a problem to be covered

and on the contrary 56% of population is engaged in agriculture.)

There is unequal distribution of national income.

CONCLUSION

Rural development is a process of qualitative and quantitative changes to improve conditions in rural regions. Such a process needs to be an integrated programme where all aspects of rural life should be taken into account.

Promotion and encouragement to the private sector players by the Indian Government as a result of which both the public and private sector has made considerable efforts for the upliftment of the rural sector in India which has resulted in ethical, social and environmental benefits. Playing the role as a motivator, and a facilitator, the Government had undertaken a number of development initiatives for the rural India.

With a vision to create an excellent rural infrastructure on the back of transport and telecommunication facilities, provision of education and medical facilities to all rural households, it is important that the threads be woven together in order to reflect the utmost significance of rural sector for the growth Indian economy.
