When you hear the chirping of birds, cows grazing in meadows, you are in a different world! Yes it’s the rural side of India. When you hear the word 'Rural', you think it’s all about villages, poor people and uneducated children. But it’s not true. It is a region where our well-praised cultures, customs and traditions are born. Even though with no proper education and other amenities, the people are kind hearted, down to earth and caring. If you just visit our Indian villages, the people will welcome you as a king! They make their own living without any disputes. Even the Rural area has its own level of government, the Panchayat Raj, which is well maintained by the local communities.
But these areas also suffer a lot of political pressure. Many lives get destroyed by these activities. There are villages which are the key to our bright future. Meghalaya, Sikkim and other North East states have some of the cleanest villages in the world. Nowadays People from these areas become millionaires, entrepreneur, leaders and even role models for others!
Also these areas are home to our main industry, agriculture. Almost 75% of India’s population is dependent on this industry. The environment of these areas is 98% cleaner than of the urban areas. Please guys whenever you go for a trip, make sure you visit these areas once in your lifetime. It will make you feel rejuvenated and refreshed.
When these changes can happen from the grass root, then our country may have bright future. So guys whenever you hear word ‘rural’ don’t think that it’s a land of poor and illiterates. Who may know when these areas may change our point of view………?!
