urban areas though Shyam Prasad Mukherji Rurban Mission scheme. The research intend to focus on advantages and disadvantages of Rurbanization. METHODOLOGY

The study focuses this area’s secondary information collected from various books, magazines, national and international journals, government reports, publication from various websites focuses on the concept of Rurbanization.

ADVANTAGES OF RURBANIZATION

1. It will reduce the rural-urban divide by providing physical and communication connectivity.

2. Reverse migration will be promoted due to the availability of urban amenities and jobs.

3. Purchasing power of rural inhabitants will increase due to employment opportunities.

4. It will help utilize India's demographic dividend since rural inhabitants will have access to skill development centre’s.

5. The Smart Cities Mission will receive a boost as the revamped smart cities will not have to bear the burden of rural migration.

DISADVANTAGES OF RURBANIZATION

1. It will require coordination between numerous entities-Union Rural development Ministry, State governments and private sector to succeed.

2. The Rurban clusters will be developed through the Private Public Partnership(PPP) model. However this will lead to an increase in operating costs.

3. Private companies might not be willing to partner the government in developing rurban clusters in areas with law and order issues like J& K and the North East.

CHALLENGES Already there are several schemes for rural development and this may create overlap and delicacy, so better integration needed.

Greater involvement of Panchayat Raj Institutions(PRI) needed with bottom up area-specific approach required else it won't generate much development.

Digital literacy and e-governance will be difficult in the absence of Information Technology Communication (ITC) infrastructure.

Close coordination between center, state and district needed to make it successful.

With effective implementation this is a step in right direction.

CONCLUSION

Though Rurbanisation has it’s disadvantages in the form of administrative and governance lapses, it has it’s advantages in the form of empowering the rural demography. The administrative and governance lapses can be overcome through effective governance. Rurbanisation has a lot of opportunity to boost the economic growth of our country which is a greatest advantage which includes the rural area.
