These villages, located in the Umsning Block of Ri-Bhoi District, Meghalaya, share a common rural character, with agriculture as the primary occupation. Despite their small size, they have basic educational facilities provided by SSA schools.
Geographic Isolation: The villages, especially Shyntor Bulia due to the seasonal flooding, face challenges in connectivity and accessibility.
Educational Limitations: The SSA schools only provide education up to class V, limiting educational opportunities for students beyond that level.
Limited Infrastructure: The villages likely lack basic infrastructure such as proper roads, healthcare facilities, and electricity supply.
Economic Diversification: Dependence solely on agriculture makes the villages vulnerable to fluctuations in crop yields and market prices.
Opportunities in Handicrafts: The weaving and silkwork activities in Syntiewmaw and Mawlaho could be promoted and scaled up to provide alternative sources of income.
Improved Infrastructure: Government initiatives should focus on improving roads, bridges, and other infrastructure to enhance connectivity and accessibility.
Upgradation of Education: The SSA schools could be upgraded to provide education up to higher levels or explore alternative educational models like distance learning.
Promotion of Handicrafts: The government and NGOs could provide training, marketing support, and access to finance for artisans engaged in weaving and silkwork.
Diversification of Agriculture: Farmers could be encouraged to adopt sustainable agricultural practices, explore value-added products, and diversify their crops.
Community Development Programs: Implementing community development programs can address social and economic challenges, improve livelihoods, and strengthen community resilience.
By addressing these challenges and leveraging the opportunities, these villages can improve their socio-economic conditions and enhance the quality of life of their residents.
