        Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana was launched in 2000 to provide all weather road access to unconnected habitations. PMGSY is a 100% centrally sponsored scheme. From 2015-16 onwards, the funding pattern has been revised to 60% Central share and 40% State Share. The programme objective is to provide round-the–year connectivity by all weather roads with necessary culverts and cross drainage structures.

        In Tamil Nadu, all habitations with more than 1000 population have been provided connectivity and 99 % of unconnected habitations with population range 500 – 999 have been provided connectivity. The remaining habitations could not be provided connectivity due to various reasons like Reserve Forest area, non-availability of land etc.
