Answers
Roads are an integral part of the transport system. A
country’s road network should be efficient in order to
maximize economic and social benefits. They play a
significant role in achieving national development and
contributing to the overall performance and social
functioning of the community. It is acknowledged that roads
enhance mobility, taking people out of isolation and
therefore poverty. Roads play a very important role in the
socio-economic development of the country but meanwhile
this expansion also pose great challenges to the safety and
security of the travelling public. The road transport industry
is the backbone of strong economies and dynamic societies.
It is therefore legitimate and indispensable to safeguard an
industry that is vital to economic growth, social
development, prosperity and, ultimately, peace and which
plays a crucial role in everyone’s life in industrialized and
developing countries alike by meeting the demand for the
sustainable mobility of both people and goods.
The importance of roads in connecting the vast rural
areas of India to form the national market and economy
cannot be overstated. Connectivity provided by roads is
perhaps the single most important determinant of well being
and the quality of life of people living in an urban area. The
efficiency of the innumerable government programmes
aimed at rural development, employment generation, and
local industrialization is, to large extent, determined by
the connectivity provided by roads. There is a
considerable body of evidence that demonstrates the links
between rural road investment, decline in poverty, and
improvement in the quality of life. Road investment
contributed directly to the growth of agricultural output,
increased use of fertilizer and commercial bank expansion.
Improvements in rural roads are positively correlated with
decline in poverty. The potential value in improving of rural
connectivity especially in the agricultural states is revealed
by the large differences between mandi and farm gate
prices.
