The MBA in Rural Management announced by the IIHMR University Jaipur is in response to the fast changing dynamic realities of a rapidly transforming rural India.
Around seventy per cent of India continues to live in Six lakh villages, and the 2015-16 general budget, the first full year budget of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, rightly gives substantial attention to Rural Development coupled with increased allocation to the farm sector.
