Abstract
“India lives in its villages", said Mahatma Gandhi, a great freedom fighter and visionary leader of India. A rural area is a geographic area that is located outside cities and towns, while rural areas are also known as 'villages' in India. About 68.84 (2011 census report) per cent of the people lives 640,867 in different villages. The quality of village life largely depends on different infrastructure and facilities and natural resources available in the villages. The present research aims to assess the proximity of health and education facilities in villages in Nilakottai Taluk, in the Dindigul district, Tamil Nadu, India. The objective of the present research is the proximity of rural health and educational facilities in the villages.
