Rural India its people and its natural resources play a vital role in the Indian economy and society. Unfortunately the issues and problems facing rural people and places receive little attention from policymakers or the national media and few residing in urban or suburban India have any idea what it is really like to live and work in rural India today. Although national and international agencies introduced many programmes and policies for rural welfare the reality of rural development is still far away. This book examines several important problems faced by people of rural India. This book will be of much use for researchers academicians policy makers programme managers and people who are involved in the process of rural development. 290 pp.
