• Unemployment and poverty are the major challenges for rural youth in achieving and maintaining their livelihood.
• Rural youth have poor access to information, educational and career opportunities, and training facilities. They find it
difficult to compete with urban youth in terms of opportunities for jobs and higher education because of tough
competition.
• Even quality of school education is poor because of lack of proper infrastructure and other necessary facilities. They have
poor facilities for sports and games too. They feel discriminated and deprived as compared to their urban counterparts
and feel removed from the mainstream of growth and development. Poor connectivity of rural communities adds to their
woes.
• They are ill informed about state policies and schemes that could benefit them. Even the state officials are unresponsive
and show scant regard to their needs and concerns.
• They easily fall victim to the red-tapism and run around effortlessly, and even give bribe to officials, to get their legitimate
or legal entitlements. The result is that the they can’t get benefits of a number of state-sponsored schemes to improve
their economic and physical conditions.

• Development of human resources
• Development of health facilities
• Development of infrastructure
• Based of current scenario participation of rural youth is very low in development practices
• I found that there some major problems faced by rural youth is that, lack of job opportunity, vocational
training, educational opportunity
• The policy only can effective when it will address the three development factors like productivity,
connectivity and agency
• It must identify the specific challenges for youth, and then develop the policies and programmes to help
them
