Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has said that the newly launched G RAM G Scheme under the Viksit Bharat vision will play a transformative role in boosting rural development across the country. He emphasised that the initiative is designed to empower villages with modern infrastructure, sustainable livelihoods, and improved access to essential services.
Speaking at a public event, the Minister highlighted that the scheme focuses on strengthening rural economies by promoting agriculture, skill development, and entrepreneurship. It also aims to enhance connectivity, healthcare, and education facilities in villages, ensuring balanced growth between urban and rural areas.
Chouhan noted that the G RAM G Scheme is aligned with the government’s broader mission of Viksit Bharat, which seeks to make India a developed nation by 2047. He said that rural communities are at the heart of this vision, and empowering them is crucial for achieving inclusive progress.
Officials explained that the scheme will involve coordinated efforts between central and state governments, with active participation from local bodies. The programme is expected to generate employment opportunities, improve living standards, and reduce migration from villages to cities.
The Minister added that the government is committed to ensuring that every household in rural India benefits from the initiative, thereby strengthening the foundation of national development. He urged citizens to actively engage with the scheme and contribute to building self-reliant villages.
The announcement has been welcomed by rural stakeholders and development experts, who believe the G RAM G Scheme could significantly accelerate India’s journey towards inclusive and sustainable growth.
