The Union cabinet on Wednesday cleared a centrally-sponsored programme for 'vibrant villages' on the borders at a cost of ₹4,800 crore for the financial years 2022-23 to 2025-26. The programme aims to comprehensively develop villages on the northern border, positively affecting the life of people living there, thus, helping reverse the outmigration from these villages and improving the security of the border.
