Although deep valleys, flying peaks, swiftly flowing rivers and streams, lush green forests and out flowing springs add to the beauty of Kashmir, yet these feathers also restrict to a large extent what is feasible with human efforts for the uplift of the AJK, but, state government has fixed the targets to improve the socio-economic conditions and poverty alleviation to ensure betterment of the well-being of rural masses. The State Government is committed to provide financial resources along with enabling environment for sustainable development through community empowerment.
I strongly believe that this website will provide excellent opportunity for showcasing development projects, programs, initiatives and policy of government for empowerment and development of rural. Moreover this website will become a platform to share the knowledge and experiences towards sustainable development through community empowerment and to promote greater corporation among the partners engaged in the rural development in AJ&K.
