Dr. Jyoti Ka. Patel
Abstract :
Rural development and improving the quality of life in rural areas has been in force in our planning and developmental strategies.
Rural development implies both the economic betterment of people as well as greater social transformation. Increased people‘s
participation in the rural development programmes, better enforcement of land reforms, decentralization of planning and greater
access to credit are conceived for providing the rural people with better prospects. (Rural Development, GOI, 2012). Initially, main
thrust for development was laid on agriculture, industry, communication, education, health and allied sectors. Later on, realizing
that accelerated development can be provided only if governmental efforts are adequately supplemented by direct and indirect
involvement of people at the grass root level, the thrust shifted. N.R.I play very significant role in village development and
motivating development in various field such as educational, religious, economic, social, cultural, infrastructure, health and many
more. (GOI, 2012)
This study focuses on contribution of NRIs in Rural Development. The main objectives of this study are to assess various areas of
intervention of NRI‘s in village development, to explore the role of NRI in village development, to know impact of contribution of
NRI on local community participation in village development, to study development observed in villages through NRI‘s
contribution The sample of the study consists of 80 villagers from Samarkha, Sarsa, Kunjrav, Thamna villages of Anand district.
