Rural Development With the vision of Gandhiji:

Gandhiji’s vision and view was clear regarding villages/rural development. India is a village oriented country and without proper development of villages and its People healthy and prosperous India is only wishful imagination. Minimum needs of rural People are to be provided, say economically, physically, medically, mentally they must be   well accustomed, means   easily they can get these most common belongings. Responsible Government can attribute such norms, rules, regulations and other necessary steps so that rural people can achieve their earnings properly, which is the foremost necessity. They must be aware about their health, education and all necessary commodities which can be fulfilled. Skill development program, modern out- look, what is going on in and around them, their eyes are to be opened. For the fulfillment of these Govt., NGOS’ and    Village people co-ordination is inevitable. Keeping it in the mind that:
What Gandhiji in his Prophecies vision mentioned about Rural People &  
Their Development:

“I would say that if the village perishes India will perish too. India will be no more India. Her own mission in the world will get lost. The revival of the village is possible only when it is no more exploited. Industrialization on a mass scale will necessarily lead to passive or active exploitation of the villagers as the problems of competition and marketing come in. Therefore we have to concentrate on the village being self-contained, there would be no objection to villagers using even the modern machines and tools that they can make and can afford to use. Only they should not be used as a means of exploitation of others.”
