The Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) is a nationwide plan launched in 2000 to provide good all-weather road connectivity to unconnected villages in India. It is fully funded by the central government and aims to provide roads to all eligible villages by 2007. The PMGSY is managed by the Ministry of Rural Development and has led to positive impacts like increased agricultural productivity, more employment opportunities, easier access to healthcare and education, and overall poverty alleviation.
