RESEARCH QUESTIONS

QUESTION 1: While we have international fully air-conditioned schools in our cities, the schools in
villages still don’t have benches and chairs, leave alone computers. We have a huge shortage of
teachers in rural areas, and the school dropout rate is huge.

QUESTION 2: In cities, we have wide roads, flyovers and underpasses while many villages still don’t
have proper roads. Urban-rural Road links can play a vital role in rural growth.

QUESTION 3: Employment opportunities are hardly there in villages which forces youth to move to
cities creating imbalance in the ecosystem and leaving the villages deprived.
QUESTION 4: While we may have numerous hospitals, nursing homes and medical facilities in cities,
villages neither have health awareness nor health facilities. Many of villagers have to flock to cities
for even basic treatments.
