Answer (Detailed Solution Below)
Detailed Solution
Download Solution PDFCommunity development projects in India were introduced as part of efforts to improve the socio-economic conditions of rural areas.
- These projects were aimed at enhancing infrastructure, education, healthcare, and overall development in the rural parts of India.
Key Points
- The Community Development Projects were officially launched by Dr. Rajendra Prasad, the first President of India.
- While Jawaharlal Nehru was a key figure in post-independence India and played a role in rural development, it was Dr. Rajendra Prasad, under the guidance of Nehru's vision, who took the initiative to launch these projects in 1952, focusing on rural development through decentralized planning.
Hint
- Pt. Jawahar Lal Nehru was the Prime Minister and played a significant role in rural development but did not directly launch the community development projects.
- Dr. C. Rajagopalachari and Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel were influential leaders, but they were not responsible for the launch of these specific projects.
Hence, the correct answer is 'Dr. Rajendra Prasad'.
