on agriculture, stresses on food self-sufficiency and employment to the rural people as the top priorities. Nevertheless, this food self-sufficiency is under strong constraints and handicaps, particularly from the massive rural population growth which consequently leading to illiteracy, ignorance, and backwardness. Besides, alarming also leading to land under cultivation is not only diminishing but also gets further fragmented, ecology degraded, infrastructural facilities do not match with the growth of rural population. This problem has been aggravated mainly by demographic pressure which leads to a large number of very small fields of the country and poor infrastructure facilities like water, electricity, transport, educational institutions, communication, health, warehousing etc. Unless these problems are strategically attended and pragmatic efforts are initiated, India, can’t flourish its rural areas and communities. Keeping these in view, the present paper tries to identify the impediments in implementing rural development programmes and pragmatic efforts to overcome them for ensuring equitable and sustainable development in rural

By nature employment is classified into part time and full time. The study of the nature of employment helps in assessing the magnitude of workforce fully reliant on earning from the IMS. This is discussed with Table 1 given below. More than 80% of workers are found to be engaged as full time workers (FTW) at the national level. However a trend of sinking part of FTW is observed with a increasing share of the part time workers (PTW). Dominance of male employment over the female employment is observed both for the category of PTW as well as the FTW. Gender wise distribution of employment shows that the share of both the full time male workers (FTMW) and full time female workers (FTFW) have decreased in 1994-95 and then continuously increased in 2005-06. Part time male workers (PTMW) shows declining share over the entire period, whereas the part time female workers (PTFW) shows an increasing share during the same period. A discussion on the growth of employment by nature and gender revealed the fact that growth rate of the FTW as well as PTW was higher during early reform period as compared to the later reform period, at the national level. The FTW suffered a negative growth during the later period, which causes the overall growth of the FTW to be lower. The growth of the PTW at all India level is higher. The category of PTW, PTFW is growing at a slower rate, but is higher than the growth rate of PTMW at the

A cause of action the claimant could use to exercise their rights could be direct effect. Direct effect is noted to have two interpretations, broad and narrow. The former states that it is a capacity of a provision of European law which can be invoked before national courts. The latter cites it to be a capacity of a provision of EU law which sees it confer rights unto individuals. [1] The first and leading case in which the doctrine of direct effect was established is Case 26/62 Van Gend en Loos. [2] It is possible the claimant could firmly rely on direct effect of this non-directly applicable form of EU law, outside regulations and treaty articles, as confirmed by Case 9/70 Grad, [3][4] and further confirmed in Case 41/74 Van Duyn v Home Office [5] which cited that directives could give rise to direct effect, providing they satisfied a certain criteria. The initial criteria directives had fulfil so to have direct effect were established in the Case 26/62Van Gend en

The decline in poverty was slow. Urban poverty was also the fall out of rural poverty as very and poor move to urban slums to eke out livelihood. The report revealed that the present situation did not reflect that poverty goals could be fulfilled by 2015. Efforts are required to enhance livelihood avenues in rural areas. Non-farm sector development and industrialization need to be given adequate attention. On the education front, the study suggested that efforts are required to make investments for schools so as to increase access
