Vibrant Villages Programme

On April 7 this year, Home Minister Amit Shah unveiled the Vibrant Village program at Kibithu, a remote village located at an altitude of 9,000 feet above sea level, near the India-China border in Arunachal Pradesh. This program aims to transform rural areas into self-sufficient and prosperous communities.

Kibithu Village: The Gateway to the Land of the Rising Sun

Kibithu is the easternmost village of India and is considered the gateway to the Land of the Rising Sun, Arunachal Pradesh. Despite its strategic location, the village lacks basic amenities such as electricity, healthcare facilities, and proper roads. These factors make it difficult for the residents to access necessary services.

Vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat: Self-Reliant India

The Vibrant Village program aligns with the government’s vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat, which aims to make India self-reliant and self-sufficient. The program will help enhance rural population’s quality of life and promote the overall economic growth and development of these regions. The government has allocated funds for the successful implementation of this initiative in a phased manner.

Impact of the Vibrant Village Program

The program aims to revolutionize rural India by providing access to basic amenities and promoting economic growth and development. The construction of roads, bridges, and other infrastructure will enhance connectivity, making it easier for people to access essential services. Provision of electricity and access to clean drinking water will improve the quality of life of people living in rural areas. Skill development programs will create employment opportunities for local residents, promoting economic growth and development.
