The rural economy has bounced back strongly based on the excellent performance of the farm sector, said a survey report of the Power and Participation Research Centre (PPRC) and the Brac Institute of Governance and Development. The survey also found that 27.3 per cent of urban slum-dwellers migrated from the major cities to villages after the pandemic hit the country in March last year. Of them, 9.8 per cent are yet to return, it said.
