Samriddh Gram is a pilot initiative that aims to bridge the rural digital divide by establishing an integrated phygital (physical + digital) service delivery ecosystem in underserved villages. The project enables equitable access to essential public services—education, healthcare, agriculture, skilling, egovernance, and financial inclusion through a communityled, technology-enabled, and scalable model.
The initiative is implemented by the Digital Empowerment Foundation (DEF) and leverages the BharatNet backbone to strengthen last-mile connectivity and service adoption in rural India.

Core Objective
