Indicator Summary

Overview

The Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) is a flagship program by the Government of India that was launched in 2000 to provide all-weather road connectivity to unconnected rural areas, enhancing socio-economic development. Roads constructed under PMGSY focus on linking rural habitations with populations of 500 or more in plain areas and 250 or more in hilly, tribal, and desert regions. The initiative aims to bridge the urban-rural divide, facilitating better access to markets, education, healthcare, and employment opportunities. Under PMGSY, roads are built using modern technology and sustainable construction practices to ensure durability and low maintenance costs. The program also emphasizes connecting habitations with critical infrastructure like schools and hospitals, providing last-mile connectivity. It has contributed significantly to rural development by improving mobility, reducing poverty, and enhancing the quality of life in rural India. Continuous monitoring ensures the program’s efficiency and transparency.
