Various efforts in the recent past have demonstrated the importance of the I.C.T. in rural development. Several efforts have helped to cut expenses while simultaneously increasing openness. Developed as pilot projects, a large number of rural e-Government apps sought to provide simple access to citizen services and better government-to-citizen transaction processing. The importance of science and technology for rural development has been acknowledged to a far larger extent in emerging nations. Improvements have been made in a variety of sectors in rural regions, including people's livelihoods, educational institutions, medical and health-care facilities, small-scale enterprises, agriculture, energy, water, housing, information technology, space technology, women, and job possibilities. The use of new approaches and technology has resulted in advancements and growth in all of these fields. The advantages of computers and television have been recognized by rural communities. Agriculture is the primary source of income in India's rural areas, and people are more aware of modern agricultural techniques, irrigation systems, seeds, fertilisers, and other products. The researcher has discussed science and technology from an Indian perspective, including its features, examples of relevant technologies, applications of science and technology, the importance of science and technology, and the function of science academies in this research article. Rural development has progressed, but much more awareness and thinking is necessary for the rural regions to continue to grow. This is a study article in which the researcher tries to emphasize the use and benefits of technology for the development of rural regions. Healthcare, medical, education, transportation, tourism, industry, business, management, administration, banking, and rural development are all areas where technology has become essential in today's society. The use of computers and software programmes is at the heart of technology. It can refer to machinery, equipment, tools, skills, knowledge, and expertise, among other things. The use of technology for the development of rural regions has been done on a large scale, and as a result of the efficient application of technology, there has been expansion and advancement in the field of agriculture. The objectives of technology development in rural areas, benefits of technology application in rural areas, areas of technology application, the role of information and communications technologies in rural development, challenges faced by rural areas, and ways of connecting energy access and rural development are the main areas that have been highlighted in this research paper. The major goal of this article is to present information on how technology advancements are assisting in the development of rural regions. Rural development in India is highly important for the country's growth, as has been widely acknowledged. This is due to the fact that over 70% of India's population lives in rural regions, and therefore rural development will effectively contribute to the country's development. |
