Rural development of our country includes any programme for promoting the social and economic welfare of rural population or the upliftment of the masses in rural area. As may be seen this meaning is comprehensive and includes every effort promoting rural welfare. The development blocks in India were set-up under the community Development programme which was started on a pilot basis in 1952 and was extended in states to the entire country by 1963. Since then the development blocks have continued to function as primary units for rural and agricultural development not only in our country but in whole of the world.
