Role of Transportation in Rural Development

            With over 75 % of the population of the country living in the villages,the development in urban centres alone do not indicate the overall development of the country.Only with the improvement in transportation facilities in rural areas,there could be faster development of the rural centres .The Fertilizers and other inputs for agriculture and cottage industries could reach the rural population easily and similarly the products can be sold at the nearest marketing centres for remunerative price resulting in faster economic growth and decreased wastage.With improved facilities for education,health care and other social needs in the villages,the urge for migration to urban centres decreases,thus helping in balance  development of the country as a whole.
