Hi everyone.

I am Malatesh Daddikoppa.

Indian villages our strength or our weakness,

In my view, villages have both strengths as well as weakness also.

Strengths.
1. Villages are backbone of agriculture,
Nowadays 70 percent of peoples depends on agriculture only out of 70 percent more than 50 percent peoples from villages.
2. 70percent of food products come from villages, in India 70 percent of food products come from villages.
3. 70 percent industry raw materials come from villages.

Weakness.
1. India have 75.04 percent literate people remaining 25 percent are illiterate people.
Out of 25 percent more than 15 percent illiterate peoples from villages.
2. Development works is lessor compared to cities.

According to me, India villages are both strength and weakness because there are 70%of people who are farmer this is a good thing and bad also The good thing is India is a developing country and these farmers are the backbone of the country due to them only we are able to get food and without food we are not able to survive and in City people want live in the area where we are not able to do such exciting things which we can do in villages I am really proud that I live in village in village we can live in fresh areas no dust or no pollution and we can climb in trees, swim in ponds river etc. Now while learning these things you are able to know that it is both strength and weakness Thanks, friends.

Villages are our strengths, only they are the true people who work for the well being of people of India. But due to lack of education and exposure to the outer world, they are easily exploited by landlords and others.

The government should give them more subsidy, so that they can be happy to live a proper life with their income. Unless they are happy doing agriculture, we are going to have food shortage for the growing population in India. It is the responsibility of urban people, to make them aware of exploitation and help the children of our villages to get good education. So, they have always been our strengths, because they have given few most successful people and food for the nation.

In my opinion, Indian villages are the strength of our country. Our countries 70% population is depending on agriculture and the allied sector. India's economy depends a lot upon the agriculture sector. Many Industries depends on villages for raw material. Ecological balance is also maintaining by villages because of the pollution-free environment. Nowadays when the country trying to adopt the western culture, we can see our traditions and culture is safe only in villages.

Because of less support from the government to facilitate villages with better schemes to educate villagers, providing good transport, health, and employment facility they are not developed and face lots of problems.

Villages are our weakness. It is a sign of incomplete development. People just say that it is our strength just because it gives us fresh air etc.

What about illiteracy?

The people in villages also have the right to study.

They also wish to say in a society like us where decisions are not taken due to poverty.

It is the weakest part of our country.

It is a place with incomplete facilities like water shortage etc.

If village people start to develop, start to study in private schools. Then just think how much our lovely country will rise.

People from villages will go to other countries and thus slowly the economy of the country will change.

With this villages should be developed!

Definitely, Indian villages are key to our success most of the raw material for industries are provided by villages. Farmers worked very hard throughout the day and night whether us summer or chilling temp in Dec or Jan yet they are merely able to survive their life and it's not drawback of Indian villages that facilities like bus stop colleges school are not there it's up to government if govt start investing the same what they are spending in cities right now than it will be a boom for our country. Most of the sports person are from villages who are winning medal in Olympics or other games just think for a moment if some facilities will be provided to them than what can they do.

Indian villages are our strength. We get milk and milk products like curd, buttermilk, butter, ghee etc from dairy farms at villages, people at villages feeds cows, goats, buffaloes and take care of them from morning to night, wake at 4'O clock to extract milk, feed them and them we get milk. Secondly, almost all the grains and vegetable farms are located in villages and farmers works day and night for better growth and cultivation of crops and then, later on, supply them to the cities and urban areas. So basically we are getting are basic needs that is food from villages. So, we can conclude that Indian villages are our strength, not weakness.

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.

Indian villages are our strength. Because of them only the development of cities has taken place. They are the base of Indian Culture. They are not useless but the only thing is that they are used less. Low literacy rate does not mean that the villagers are illiterate but the only thing is that they are not given chance to show their talent otherwise they also have a key role in the progress of the nation. If India has to develop the villages must develop and their lost culture need to explore as much as we can. So, let us lend a helping hand in the development of our villages which will ultimately lead to the development of our nation.

Hi, I'm Rupesh.

In my point of view, Indian villages are not only our strength but also our backbone because a major part of our country economy depend on agriculture and which are totally based on villages. Only villages sustained our culture. But literacy rate of our villages is very low so we are not getting proper benefit of modern technology in comparison to developed countries like as America, Japan etc. That's reason Indian village is not developed but our government is trying to improve the condition of villages and develop a new campaign. I hope that our villages would increase literacy rate and we stabilized as developed.
