Rural India Development: A Disguise

Since the invasion of foreigners, our country has always been divided by races, religions, and communities. These divisions brought further a larger division, that is Urban India and Rural India. The Urban part has come forth a very long way but Rural is still developing.

From past two decades the development programmes have taken vital turns in re imaging Rural India.

Construction of roads and highways along villages has made rural people to commute easily. It has become a lot easier to import and export across these areas. Developmental programmes providing proper water resources on which agricultural development can thrive have also imparted their dues in this. Many governmental and non-governmental organisations have put a great emphasis on production of tubewells and rain water harvesting. To places where rainfall is a scarcity; canals like Indra Gandhi canal have been made. These canals cover up the issue of irrigation facilities in remote areas. Educational and health programmes have also flipped the rural face completely.

The key characteristic of rural India is agriculture fulfilling 80% of dietary requirements of this country. Rural India has came too far to attain an economical niche leading governments to take interest in them. Several acts have been reinforced to protect people’s human as well as working rights. Kisan call centres are established to help farmers clear their crop related woes.

Concomitantly, a lot is happening and changing in rural India. But there is a lot that has been gone disguise with political pressure. Never lasting corruption has also stuck firmly, hindering this process. Rich are getting richer and poor are getting poorer.

Rural India development needs a lot more attention from people, governments and established giants as on the heads of these villages, our metros are flourishing. Far we have came, far we to go together.
