ABSTRACT: Villages are the lifeline of India as 65% of country’s population lives in the rural areas. Rural economy contributes 25-30 per cent to the GDP. Rural development focuses on creating economic opportunities in rural areas through initiatives such as skill development, agricultural innovation, and the promotion of rural industries. By generating income and employment opportunities, rural development plays a crucial role in reducing poverty and promoting sustainable livelihoods. The use of digital tools and communication technologies can enhance productivity, promote financial inclusion and bridge the information gap between rural and urban areas. Sustainable and inclusive rural development not only benefits the rural population but also contributes to the overall socio-economic development of a nation.
