Launched the Scheme
Hon’ble Prime Minister has launched this scheme on 21st February, 2016 in the State of Chhattisgarh. The Mission aims at development of rurban clusters, which would trigger overall development in the region.

Aims
Under this National Rurban Mission (NRuM), to ensure organized development of the clusters, the areas would be well delineated and would be duly notified as planning areas under the relevant Planning Acts of the States.
Mission
These clusters would be developed by provisioning of economic activities, developing skills & local entrepreneurship and providing infrastructure amenities. The Mission aims at development of 300 such clusters over the next 3 years, of which 100 clusters would be formed in the first phase.
