The Gandhian approach to rural development emphasizes self-reliance, decentralization, and the upliftment of village communities. Mahatma Gandhi believed that India’s true strength lies in its villages and promoted the idea of Gram Swaraj or village self-governance. He encouraged cottage industries, khadi production, and sustainable agriculture to strengthen rural economies. Gandhi also stressed social harmony, sanitation, education, and community participation to build self-sufficient villages and promote dignity of labour and equality.
