Abstract
The rural development programmes occupy significant position in India’s economic planning, as nearly three fourth of its population lives in villages. In fact villages represent real India. Hence without uplifting rural masses,
we cannot think over accelerate the pivot of overall economic development. In order to ensure that there should
be balanced economic development of the country and the fruits of the development should percolate to the grass-root levels, rural development gets the top most priority in our planned efforts. Health management are part of the core strategy of the mission. Government of India launched the National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) on 12thApril 2005 throughout the India with special focus on 18 states which have weak public health indicators and/or weak infrastructure. The NRHM was launched with a view to bring about dramatic improvement in the health system and health status of the people, especially those living in rural areas by the end of 2012. The NRHM has a clear objective of providing quality health care in the remotest rural areas by making it accessible, affordable and accountable. Under NRHM, financial assistance has been provided to the states, UTs for the health systems strengthening which include augmentation of infrastructure human resources and programme management, emergency responses services, Mobile Medical units, community participation.
