There were lot of gaps
between city and village life up to mid of 2000’s, in means of usage in modern technology,
modern infrastructure and modern equipment’s. The advances things only were available
and affordable for who lives and born in urban & semi-urban areas. For
example if want to see the public exam results or to book the railway ticket,
you have go to all the way to nearby city or town. In another example, If want
use advance medical facilities or treatment, you have to go for tier-1 or tier
-2 cities.
It is not a case now. There is rapid change in IT and IT Enabled services for last couple of years. It benefits everybody’s life and makes everybody’s life easier.

The mobile, money
transfer, Internet and DTH services are very equaling to urban and rural life. There
is very minimal gap. The other services are still maturing and improving. But it
has a little gap. However it will be linked and filled in certain no of years.
The current modern
technologies are really filling the Gap between Urban and Rural Life.
