PMGSY
Of all the government's sponsored flagship schemes to promote holistic rural development in terms of providing basic services to country's hinterlands, the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojna (PMGSY) has impacted most by way of improving the quality of life in rural areas. This rural road construction programme remains one of the well-run and successful Central government schemes, benefitting poor rural inhabitation especially on a per capita poverty and welfare basis, says a report. The report attributes the success of the scheme to its unique format, design, evaluation, and monitoring system in- build into it. The scheme continues to be frequently inspected for its quality work and maintenance carried out regularly from time to time through an effective institutional mechanism.
