...This is what a tiny village wants from this upcoming budget.

Posted by Sitanshu

As it is an unquestionable fact that more than half of our population is still residing in the rural areas, we all have the plea that this area should be the major part to be focussed in the FM's upcoming budget. Though, our honourable finance minister himself is a brilliant personality and he knows the fact well, but still i want to make him aware about some areas where the villages are lacking.

The facts that sends a village on back foot :

1. Roads- a basic need to all, but still a major part of rural area across the country lies in rustic roads. So there should be surplus fund to curb this curse.

2. Electricity- as the urban areas are moving fast with the help of technology, the rural part is moving backward due to lack of proper electrification. Thousands of villages are still in a wait to see the bulb lit. So what's the stage of  telecom development (like cell phones and internet) there can be easily conceived. So, there should be an exhaustive starting of Rural Electrification.

3. Health- spent 20 years of my life in my native village which has no identity till now, and have seen about half a dozen death due to insufficient medication. Uptill now, there is not a single health centre  is there. And that's why some of our Chacha and Bhaiya have become the self proclaimed doctors who are enhancing their knowledge at the cost of someone's health. And that's why we need a policy to be made which would provide a government health centre in evey single village.

4. Employment- if someone gets a job and receives a salary of Rs.3000 p.m,  he suddenly becomes the overachiever of the society. I know some youths of my village who are mentally robust and physically fit to work hard, but they don't have opportunity to work there. Finally, they become a part of the outsider labourer community who are working under the greedy contractors in cities like Mumbai and Delhi.
And finally...

5. Willpower- a strong willpower to execute all the policies in a right way.
