Understanding the Challenges and Government Initiatives

Poverty that has continuously affected these villages is due to the inadequate infrastructure, inadequate connectivity and economic opportunities. Most people can not afford basic services such as clean drinking water, healthcare and education. The government via schemes like Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana and Saubhagya Scheme, is trying to enhance road connectivity, electrification, and welfare schemes access. NGOs are also getting involved in the introduction of skill training and microfinancing programs to play a significant role. Though the pace is slow, 2025 is a time of renewed hope as the development projects slowly trickle down to the most marginalized locations.
