Connecting rural hinterland with roads in west bengal can transform the economy of the state

West Bengal Govt. is attempting a comprehensive development of rural roads. Road connectivity is a must for communication and reaping the benefits of markets, schools, healthcare centres etc. in the neighborhood. Better Road connectivity will provide the children of attending primary, secondary, higher secondary or even colleges in the nearby villages or towns. It will also help the villagers to reach the highways to catch the buses or availing other modes of transport. It will also help villagers to reach markets to sell their produce or buy necessities. Above all, it will improve the tourism, as many urbanites want to take a break into countryside, but do not want to travel along potholed muddy roads. If roads are improved, there can be better cultural integration of urban and rural population. This will have a telling effect on the economy.
