As the economic growth of a country depends on the per-capita income of citizens who are residing both in rural and urban areas, their daily incomes and regular operation of businesses are sure to help the regular circulation of family income, contributing to the improvement of socio-economic status not only for themselves but for the nation.
Some 30 per cent of the total population is residing in urban areas. Depending on job opportunities, those residents earn incomes as usual. Individual people from rural areas can earn incomes in just cultivation season. Due to a lack of regular incomes like the salaries of workers from factories in urban areas, rural people rely on their family incomes. The development gap between rural and urban areas is based on the lesser amount of regular incomes and relying on the family.
At present, the government is striving for narrowing the development gap between rural and urban living standards. Especially, an emphasis is being placed on the creation of more employment opportunities and standing with livelihoods for strengthening socioeconomic status. In such doing, the Rural Development Department under the Ministry of Cooperatives and Rural Development is implementing the emerald green village projects to improve the living standard of the rural people.
As such, the individual regular income will contribute much to improving the living standard of rural families. Consequently, those from rural areas will have good learning opportunities for possessing the lives of educated citizens who are able to apply their human resources in nation-building endeavours.
Under the project, training courses are being conducted for those wishing to operate agriculture, livestock and manageable production. Conducting the basic tailoring courses, knitting courses, soap-making courses, jams and snacks making courses, mechanic courses, motorbike repairing courses and others contribute to raising the family incomes.
Rural development undertakings comprise electrification and water supply tasks. In this regard, the villages without electrification are being lit through solar power whereas water supply is being provided to needy villages through springs and tube wells. Thanks to these efforts, some villages see increased incomes for individuals and families. As such, the project has been benefiting the rural areas with development undertakings and manageable green businesses.
Only when the rural people, 70 per cent of the total population of the nation can enjoy socioeconomic development will rural people earn regular income. So also, the per-capital income of both rural and urban people increases and the nation secures the result of higher Gross Domestic Products-GDP. Gradually, individual efforts will drive for development of the nation.
As such, the individual regular income will contribute much to improving the living standard of rural families. Consequently, those from rural areas will have good learning opportunities for possessing the lives of educated citizens who are able to apply their human resources in nation-building endeavours.
