The concept of rural development is universal supremacy as the goal and value-loaded concept in the Indian political philosophy and it’s a continuous process and progress in the vision of modernity especially from political, social, and economic perspectives by nourishing the rich heritage of the country. The concept has multiple ideologies for constructive reforms intended for a noble society. Hence the father of the nation Mahatma Gandhiji rightly said that “the soul of India lives in its villages” and accordingly him only Panchayath Raj System is a political power is a basic requirement for the success of true democracy. In this context, it can be understood that the concept of rural development and the Panchayath Raj System are two faces of the same coin and without Panchayath Raj System sustainable rural development cannot be expected. In this regard, many Indian thinkers have contributed their thoughts on rural development from their own perspectives for the strong implementation of the Panchayath Raj System to revitalize rural development. Therefore, The Constitution of India brought a revolutionary movement through the 73rd constitutional amendment by introducing Panchayath Raj System on 24th April 1993 which can be considered a remarkable day in the history of Indian democracy. This article is trying to through some light on rural development and its perspectives in the Indian thinker’s vision.
