The development of the country is dependent on the growth of the country's rural area. Our country's backbone is made up of villages. The gap between villages and cities is widening as a result of increasing urbanization, technological illiteracy, and a lack of fundamental social and physical infrastructure. The progress of technology in cities is due to widespread knowledge of technologies, whereas in villages, there is a lack of understanding of technological advancements. Villages that rely heavily on agriculture and other agro-based industries will benefit from the application of technology to these sectors. The smart semi-urban region concept will improve rural living standards by making them self-sustaining. Technology will be the catalyst in achieving the smart rural area status by providing one step ahead facilities in sanitation, health, education, transportation, water conservation, farm productivity, local business opportunities, and economic liberation for village youth, and better democratic engagement. Through a review of literature in the fields of smart RURAL concept, risk assessment, and management of rural infrastructure, this study aims to create a sustainable model of a smart RURAL area by studying the current state of infrastructure in Manimangalam and integrating all of the needs of the rural population. This study aims to meet the needs of the current generation without compromising the needs of future generations, and it proposes the risks associated with the development of smart semi-urban areas, as well as risk assessment and management plans for semi-urban areas and government schemes supporting rural development in our country.
