Abstract

Political stability is a prerequisite for a country's development and economic growth. Because foreign investment depends on political stability, if foreign investment increases, the country concerned will naturally develop. Political instability has harmed the country's overall development, imports and exports, and retailers. But a country's or a village's development depends on political stability and other factors that hurt development. This paper has investigated the root factors of underdevelopment even in stable political environments in two selected villages, namely Barahangina and Talukpara of Cumilla district. A mixed method, especially in-depth interviews, FGD, case studies, and surveys, was used to collect data. This study proposed that to develop the selected village, it is necessary to increase the rate of higher education along with the goodwill of the political leaders otherwise, the overall development of the village will not be possible. So, it is hoped that this research will play a significant role.
