This will help in improving the quality of life of people in the rural areas and help to reduce the urban-rural divide which will ultimately reduce the rural to urban migration. The clusters should include villages with a population of 25000-50000 in plain areas and 5000-15000 in tribal, hilly and desert areas. These clusters are to be identified by the State Government. The funding of the project will be through various schemes of the Government. The scheme will be implemented through the Public Private Partnership(PPP) model.
