The current ruling political party in India has done a fantabulous come back with a majority of seats in 2019. However, the party took certain decisions which might have hampered its political presence in the rural areas.
The decisions taken by the prevailing party such as GST bills caused a major disruption among the poor people and as a result, the party’s dominance has only stuck to the middle class and HNI sectors.
In the recent election held in 2019, the BJP tally has come down to 99 seats as compared to 119 in 2019. It was due to the negligence towards the rural sector where the party performed poorly.
The party’s stronghold place called Saurashtra having 56 assembly seats, the ruling party could manage to win only 23 seats in 2019, which is far less than 36, in 2012.
The continuous negligence of rural areas has affected the party’s political presence to a much greater extent.
To cope with the situation, the Modi government has decided to invest more in the rural economy to shed its image as pro-industrialist and anti-poor.
Keeping this in mind, numerous programs have been designed to accomplish rural requirements.
In an initiative taken by the government towards rural people, the Modi government has decided to double the farm income by 2022. The government is all set to allocate Rs 1.07 Lakh Crore for the expenditure on rural development.
Of the total amount Rs 1.07 Lakh Crore, the government has already allocated Rs 48000 Crore to MNREGA for FY 2017-18.
