bHub (August 2020)

How will the villages and industries simultaneously benefit from bHub?

bHub is a thoughtful concept that will provide at par services of Education, Health, and Finance in the villages through Functional and Structural up-gradation of the existing establishments benefiting the common man (85% of the rural population).

Infrastructural activity in the villages will demand the involvement of most of the industries from steel, cement to digital, and service industries. They may all benefit from bHub.

What will be the design of the bHub establishments?

We recommend the design of the bHub done under the governance of the State and the Center will be easily recognizable (like Swachh Bharat Abhiyan) with regional specification

Who will have ownership over the upgraded establishments?

We recommend, an MOU between the Central Government/ State Government and the respective NRVs and villagers to take the charge of the new establishments.

Who will be doing the project management for this initiative?

The philanthropist will manage the establishment which he is upgrading and maintaining.

What will be the role of ruralrelations.com?

ruralrelations.com will function as a medium to communicate the bHub concept to the Central and the State Government ministers, MPs, MLAs/MLCs, Media, Intellectuals, Corporate, celebrities, and especially to the Villagers and Non-Resident Villagers (NRV).

Why is bHub feasible?

Easy availability of land and land permissions in the villages along with extended support of the villagers will make bHub feasible

To bring bHub to reality will call for huge funds. We believe this will happen through participation and collaboration from rich philanthropists and well-heeled personalities.

bHub is an extensive project that would benefit 13 crore rural households and industries at the same time.
