Solution:
The "PURA" (Provision of Urban Amenities to Rural Areas) model was conceptualized by Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, the 11th President of India. He proposed this model to bridge the rural-urban divide by providing urban amenities in rural areas, focusing on:
- Physical connectivity (roads, bridges, etc.)
- Electronic connectivity (internet, communication, etc.)
- Knowledge connectivity (education, skill development, etc.)
The goal of PURA is to create clusters of economically vibrant villages, improving the quality of life and economic opportunities for rural communities.
