Abstract

Road connectivity is essential for rural development in Jharkhand. Ranchi district consists of hilly and plateau regions such as Angara, Tamar, Bundu, Sonahatu, Ormanjhi, Kanke village area, which have undulating terrain, rocky strata, and lateritic soil. In contrast, relatively plain and low-lying/tropical influenced areas such as Namkum, Ratu, Mandar, Lapung and nearby plain belts experience waterlogging and soft soil conditions. These geographical variations create significant differences in village road construction practices.
