Indian villages - our strength or our weakness?

Hello, Everyone,

In my point of view, villages are a weakness to our society as villages in India don't get the necessary amount of resources for their development such as they don't have good infrastructure nor good schools neither do they have a good internet connection so they are mostly cut off from the outside fast growing world. No doubt villages are the backbone to our Indian Culture but the people residing over there lack basic amenities. Most of the villages are farmers so steps should be taken to inculcate modern machinery so that these people won't face any difficulty while striving for their basic needs.

In my opinions, farmers are the backbone of the country it also contributes 18% of our economy but on the other hand.

Due to unemployment in rural areas and more expenditure farmers committed suicide we should support the farmer and arrange an employment in non-seasonal areas.

Indian villages are our strength. Lions share of our population resides in the village. Farmers produce agriculture products in village land which is the backbone of Indian economy. The village provides cheap edible products. Our country is not developed because our villages are not developed. So for developed India, our villages must be developed because these are the real strength of India.

Hello, Everyone.

In my point of view, Indian villagers are our strength because, all the things we get from village. And in village all people hard worker. And if we discus about farmer we can't explain, because they have enough labourer. If I discus about villages student they have more talented with few scope. They are not getting more scope. If you thinking about sports/athletic villages more childrens are participated and also win golden, silver, and bronze prize. And villages people are living unity, helpful. If one has facing problem then another help to him. (NOT like city, if one person have facing problem another can forget them). So I say, villages are our backbone and villages are our STRENGTH not weakness. Thank you.

Hello Friends,

In my opinion, of course, villages are our strength as our economy is primarily based on the Agriculture sector and Agriculture along with fisheries and forestry account for about one-third of the country's GDP.

And instead of looking at our villages as weaknesses, we should see them as a field where we do have immense opportunities for development. If we succeed to bring our villages into the ongoing start-up and business boom they could prove to be the best asset to the Indian economy.

Besides this Indian villages also possess rich cultural diversity with so many customs and traditions being practised in a beautiful way.

Our country is dependent on agriculture and it is the backbone. It is also a developing country. Villages provide basic need food required for the people of India in rural as well as urban. As more and more people are uneducated, unemployed and our agriculture is also not well developed. Certainly, we can see factors that are needed for our country to be recognized as developed. Developing villages will be a big boon for India. I conclude that it is our strength by certainly filling the loopholes it will become a developed nation.

As everyone is aware and agree to the fact that Indian villages are the backbone and surely the strengths of India.

As the topic has a word called weaknesses, I believe it is not the villages that are weaknesses, but it is the system that is not able to provide the basic amenities our sustenance of villages which include proper schooling and proper medical facilities.

In my opinion, ultimate outcome of this question is Yes, it does lean towards positivity that villages are truly the backbone and strength of any country or India but we should be asking the question are villages really being the strength or contributing to maximum potential?

Don't look at the numbers that 70% population blah blah blah is agriculture-dependent in villages but think about the fact that even that its the case is this 70% making enough per capita income if there's mainly one family member deemed to have earned it. In a sense income from just farm gets divided into individuals of the family and the per capita income basically drops sometimes lower to than of lowest-paid government employees? The talk about education and health-care seems to fall too far because we need a strong core and economy which is still an issue because most people are not self-sufficient.

Sure villages have kept traditions alive but have they enforced enough modern technology to boost productions enough to compete overall with huge modern business through financial standpoints?

We are still in an era that most schemes applied, brought to most villages are not about really about development standpoint but still about ensuring survival or basic needs, even those are deprived in a sense.

To conclude, we need to find a middle way on our own, not inspired by western countries or any other to infuse the traditions and modern technology, we need our own minds aspired to create modern solutions, to look up new ways to do things and open new doors of possibilities in villages.

Hello all.

Definitely, I can say one thing that villages are our strength because if village perishes, India will perish too. Agriculture is the primary occupation of India. 60% of our population depends on agriculture. Most of the Indian villagers are farmers, they are the backbone of the our country.

In villages, there is also more brotherhood as a comparison to the city.

In villages, everyone knows each other and if anyone has any problem peoples are gathering and solve his problem and in cities, no one knows you even your neighbours.
