Correct Answer: Improve rural road connectivity


Solution : The correct answer is (b) Improve rural road connectivity.

The Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) is a government scheme in India that aims to improve rural road connectivity by providing all-weather road access to eligible unconnected habitations. The program focuses on connecting remote rural areas and villages with population size above 500 in plain areas and above 250 in hilly and tribal areas

The PMGSY plays a crucial role in enhancing rural infrastructure and connectivity. By improving road access, it aims to facilitate better transportation of goods and services, improve market access for farmers, promote rural tourism, and enable easier access to healthcare and educational facilities. It contributes to overall rural development and helps in reducing poverty by providing opportunities for economic growth and social development in rural areas.
