ABSTRACT
In India, rural development is seen as a fundamental approach for economic growth. There have been a number of rural development programmes developed by the federal and state governments in an effort to help the impoverished. The governments’ policies and programmes have not only focused on alleviating poverty, but also on creating employment and income possibilities, providing infrastructure, and meeting the fundamental necessities of the rural poor. In 1980, the SFDA and MFAL were merged into the District Rural Development Agency (DRDA) to better administer the Rural Development Programs. The purpose of this essay is to provide readers with a better understanding of how a DRDA works in the context of implementing rural development initiatives.
