Abstract:
A brief survey of Indian Short Fiction in English indicates that there is a wide scope for its study. Manoj Das has presented a serene and simple way of life of rural community in India in his fiction which is rapidly disappearing. He is one of the foremost short story writers in Post-Independent India and an outstanding bilingual writer both in English and Oriya at ease. He depicts very effectively and skillfully the way of life of people living in villages, their values, norms, beliefs, attitudes, traditions, customs, superstitions, religion, etc., in his stories. He is a keen observer of the changing socio-political and cultural scenario in the post independent India. The stories of Manoj Das are so subtle and suggestive that they have a concealed element of didacticism, a zeal for social reform as he is keenly interested in fostering and promoting the qualitative life of the rural people of India. Hence, in this paper I presented my views and opinions from Indian perspective keeping in mind the life of the rural people with all their day to day activities and problems as portrayed by Manoj Das. In spite of their penury, the cultural values and conventional ways are not given up. Thus, the author preserves the rich Indian cultural heritage in spite of his depicting the follies and foibles of human life.

Abstract:
This article evaluates rural infrastructure facilities in 16 major states of India, and examines their impacts on some income and non-income dimensions of rural development. Despite several public initiatives for infrastructure development in rural India, facilities continue to be poor and progress has been mostly unsatisfactory with differential performance across states. Estimates of regression coefficients of the composite indices and individual indicators of rural infrastructure reveal that improved physical and social infrastructure and livelihood opportunities enhance agricultural productivity and output, improve literacy and life expectancy, and reduce poverty and infant mortality. The results, showing the relative importance of various infrastructures, suggest that the government should prioritise additional investments in electricity, roads, irrigation, housing and telecommunications to enhance overall well-being.

Abstract:
Rural India represents the absolute India. In the era of aggressive urbanization, India depicts itself as a rural country. The reason behind this depiction is that population of rural India consist of 69 percent of the total population. According to the census of 2011 India’s rural population is 12 percent of world’s population. The rural people of India are mostly engaged in agricultural or other informal activities and share a larger part when compared to other formal activities and source of earning. The rural part of India also represents the population living below poverty line, having low expectancy rate and Human Development Index. These problems highlight an important issue that majority of the India’s population need to be freed from these problems. This paper will highlight the problems existing in rural India and the solutions that will help to eradicate these important issues so that rural India will be able to depict the developed India. The researcher had surveyed 221 people working for rural development in India to know the factors that determines the Sustainable Rural Development in India and found that Government initiatives, PURA (Providing Urban Facilities in Rural Areas), Development of ICT and Participation of rural people are different factors that determines the Sustainable Rural Development in India.

Abstract:
Rural development is gaining global attention, especially among developing nations. It has great importance for a country such as India. It refers to the development of rural economies, which are experiencing serious poverty issues, and aims to develop their productivity. In addition, the report stresses the importance of addressing different pressing issues of village economies that impede growth and improve these areas. The Indian government has launched several schemes to develop rural areas. A few of the major problems in rural India are the lack of housing, the lack of infrastructure in villages and towns to connect villages with all-weather roads, and the lack of employment opportunities. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the government of India has announced the Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yoiana Gramin scheme to provide homes, Pradhanmantri Gram Sadak Yojana to build roads and To provide rural people with employment opportunities, the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act 2005 was passed. In this study, we discover what the role of these schemes is in India's rural development, as well as how they are progressing at present.

In India, out of total population, 83.3 crores of population living in rural areas (Census of India, 2011) and this population is characterized by mass poverty, low levels of literacy and income, high level of unemployment, and poor nutrition and health status. The rural developmental programmers intends to reduce the poverty and unemployment, to improve the health and educational status and to fulfill the basic needs such as food, shelter and clothing of the rural population. To improve the conditions of rural people, Government of India has launched various schemes such as Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA), Rastriya Sama Vikas Yojana (RSVY), Indira Awas Yojana (IAY), Sampoorna Grameen Rozgar Yojana (SGRY), Integrated Tribal Development Project (ITDP), Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY), Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS), Development of Women and Children in Rural Areas (DWCRA), etc. All these schemes are aimed to reduce the gap between rural and urban people, which would help reduce economic imbalances and speed up the development process.

Abstract:
This study aims to ascertain the level of livelihood diversification and examines the socio-economic contexts of livelihood diversification in rural India. Employing data from India Human Development Survey (IHDS-II), 2011-12, an Inverse Herfindhal-Harschman Diversity Index (IHHDI) was calculated incorporating eleven income sources (livelihood strategies). In addition, the contribution of each strategy in households’ total income has been calculated. Furthermore, binary logistic regression was applied to predict the households’ engagement in each livelihood strategy and the likelihood of high IHHDI. Results indicate that the higher livelihood diversifications were found among the households with large size, high dependency, lower social groups, low educated, landless, marginal and small farming, and economically poor. This study also highlights the significance of diversification strategies in raising households’ income. It is suggested that broadened policy support is required to promote diversification for economic development in rural India.

Abstract:
Abstract Spirituality is the essence of Indian culture in general and rural India in particular. India’s culture is mainly recognised as spiritual culture. Most of the elements of Indian culture are intangible by nature and has a spiritual dimension. In the 21st century, in the age of globalisation where western culture that is materialistic by nature is dominating, rural India is still carrying the rich tradition of spiritual culture that is close to the nature and goes in the line with sustainability of environment. This paper seeks to investigate how spiritual culture can show the way to sustainable development and also solve the problems emersed from environmental degradation. The paper is based on the review of related literatures, interviews with different stakeholders and personal observation of Indian rural life. It is revealed that many spiritual activities practices in India is close to the nature and promote sustainable development. However, the process of globalisation that emphasize materialism is getting prevalence in urban India. Rural India is still very much living with sustainability and spiritual culture. So, there is need to encourage spiritual culture that can be proved much beneficial for sustainable development. Key Words: Spiritual, rural, development, sustainability.

Abstract:
Rural markets have gained importance in the past few years because of the large rise in the purchasing capacity of rural populations brought about by the economy as a whole. In India, the urban and rural markets differ significantly. When compared to urban consumers, rural consumers vary because of family history, wealth, education, as well as other sociodemographic characteristics. The green movement has increased the amount of manufactured and raw products consumed in rural areas. As a result, the market presents potential in the form of a sizable untapped market, rising expendable cash, rising levels of literacy, and broad possibilities for penetration. In order to seize these prospects, a unique marketing approach called "rural advertising" has been developed. Because urban markets have combined with the increasing and relative development has halted, India's rural marketplaces have undergone substantial adjustments. Marketers have seen the immense potential in rural India, and with authorities focusing more on injecting funds to boost the rural economy, corporations are becoming more eager to establish operations in rural India. Similar to the last paper, this one focuses on the rural market's position in the Indian economy as well as the potential and challenges it faces in the contemporary, cutthroat marketplace. This essay aims to comprehend the rural market, the significance of rural tourism, and the current state of the rural sector

Abstract:
The study makes an attempt to assess the impact of agri-tourism on economic life of farmers in rural areas. The result indicates that agri­tourism may be a source of additional income for farmers. Farmers are now-a-days facing more problems for maintaining their livelihood because agricultural productions in India are fluctuating for monsoon. Therefore they needs source of additional income and in this case agri-tourism may be the possible alternative. Agri-tourism helps for increasing interaction between rural and urban peoples. Agri-tourism involvement in agricultural operations creates joyful experience to the tourist. Agri-tourism could create awareness about rural life and knowledge about agriculture science among urban school children. Thus, the paper suggests that the agri-tourism has the capacity for creating income opportunity for farmers and shows new path for rural development.

Abstract:
The Rural development generally refers to the process of improving the quality of life and economic welfare of people living in relatively isolated and sparsely populated areas. Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) is considered as a “Silver Bullet” for eradicating rural poverty and unemployment, by way of generating demand for productive labour force in villages. It provides an alternative source of livelihood which will have an impact on reducing migration, restricting child labour, alleviating poverty, and making villages self-sustaining through productive assets creation such as road construction, cleaning up of water tanks, soil and water conservation work, etc. For which it has been considered as the largest anti-poverty programme in India. In this paper, based on the secondary data, an attempt has been made to comprehensively understand the development effort to rebuild the rural life and livelihood on the basis of various secondary data.

Abstract:
The idea of the Integrated Development Scheme (IDS) has received considerable attention in India, Indonesia and in some African countries such as Kenya and Ethiopia. The scheme has led to urban slum upgrading in these countries and has led to notable successes in the provision of common facilities in the rural areas of India. Therefore, given the neglect of rural areas by both private and public sectors, and the need to improve the housing conditions of rural dwellers, this paper examines the benefits of improved livelihoods from the scheme to improving rural housing conditions in Nigeria. A case study of the Rural Development Programme (RUDEP) of Justice Development and Peace Makers' Centre (JDPMC), a non-governmental organisation in Osun State, Nigeria, was conducted. Stratified and purposive sampling was used to select 344 participants/beneficiaries of the programme from 28 active communities out of the 36 communities' coverage by RUDEP. Qualitative and quantitative data obtained from the respondents were analysed using descriptive statistics of percentages and frequency distributions. The results revealed that the RUDEP integrated scheme, which was first initiated with the objective of improving the livelihood of poorer farmers and women that engaged in agricultural-related activities, has also impacted rural housing conditions positively by empowering them to provide facilities that were not initially in place. The paper concluded that IDS could be a viable policy option for improving the condition of rural housing in Nigeria.
