    Appendix VII ANNUAL REPORT (2003-2004) 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Construction of rural roads brings multifaceted benefits to the hitherto deprived rural areas and is seen as an effective poverty reduction strategy. The economic benefits of rural roads include increase in agricultural production, changes in crop pattern, better prices for the agricultural produce, reduction in transport costs, creation of new employment opportunities in other than agricultural sector, increase in land prices, better climate for setting up cottage and agro-Industries, increase in production of dairy products, etc. The impact of the new links on the social life of the rural population is reflected in the form of better medical care, more attendance in school/colleges, better availability of public services, higher levels of social interaction etc. Rural roads also change the life patterns. Improved connectivity will make daily commutation to urban work places easier, reducing migrations, increasing rural employment and improving family life. Rural connectivity will enable increased penetration of better quality consumer items and durables, thus improving quality of life. 1.2 The Rural Roads Construction is not new to India. Over the centuries, the Rural Road Development was done, but was not systematically planned or executed with due quality consciousness. It is only after Jayakar’s Committee recommendations the need and concept for planning of roads has emerged in India and series of 20 year plans known as Nagpur Plan (1943-61), Bombay Plan (1961-81) and Lucknow Plan (1981-2001) were executed after setting targets and assessing the requirement of different kinds of roads. 1.3 Construction of village roads were taken up in India under several programmes like MNP, NREP, RLEGP, JRY, IGRY, BMS and EIS with the main objective of providing employment, food for work and fulfilling the minimum needs.
