Answers
Answer:
The challenges faced by people in rural India are very different from the challenges faced by people living in cities. In cities, we have grown used to a certain sense of entitlement; we have access to luxuries people in villages can only dream of. Having said that, the challenges faced by rural India can be broadly grouped into: livelihood challenges (agriculture and allied sector and non-farm livelihoods in the informal/unorganised sector), entitlement challenges (food - Public Distribution System (PDS), work- Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA), and relief - state-sponsored, water, and cash), and social and behavioural challenges (awareness, fear/panic, rumours, domestic abuse, and discrimination). This study also highlights initiatives by the three actors, namely the community, the village-level functionaries, and the Non-Governmental Organizations/ Civil Society Organizations (NGOs/CSOs) that can potentially have positive implications in rural India.
