Vibrant Village Program
The Vibrant Village Program (VVP), initiated by the Indian government, aims to bolster infrastructure and stability in border areas adjacent to China. Launched on February 15, 2023, it focuses on enhancing the living conditions in 2,967 villages across five states by preventing out-migration, elevating living standards, and strengthening border security. A significant part of the ₹4,800 crore allocated for three years will be used for road construction, with an average cost of ₹2 crore per kilometer, reflecting the program’s emphasis on creating robust connectivity to facilitate easier livelihoods and enhanced surveillance capabilities.
