Government Transforms Perception of Border Villages

Government Transforms Perception of Border Villages

The government is changing how they see villages near the country's borders.

Instead of thinking of them as the 'last' villages, they're now seen as the 'first', aiming to make them thriving communities.

The Vibrant Villages Programme (VVP) is a project to help these villages.

The goal is to improve life by providing healthcare, training people, and helping them start businesses.

The Health Ministry is setting up health centers, and mobile medical units will visit these villages.

Representatives from five states have expressed gratitude and asked for more villages to be included in the program.
