At Central University of Karnataka second convocation in December last, President Pranab Mukherjee praised the Saansad Adarsh Gram Yojana has been launched with the objective of developing model villages with improved basic amenities, enhanced human development, access to rights and entitlements and wider social mobilisation.
Financial inclusion, creation of digital infrastructure and the Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan had been dovetailed into this scheme, he noted. He called upon the central universities to start working with at least five villages each to transform them into model villages. You must organise resource persons and experts to provide solutions to the wide range of issues concerning the adopted villages.
The Yojana was launched by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the birth anniversary of Jayaprakash Narayan on 11 October 2014. It was was initiated to bring the member of parliament of all the political parties under the same umbrella while taking the responsibility of developing physical and institutional infrastructure in villages and turn them into model villages.[3]Under this scheme, each member of parliament needs to choose one village each from the constituency that they represent, fix parameters and make it a model village by 2016.
Thereafter, they can take on two or three more villages and do the same by the time the next general elections come along in 2019, and thereafter, set themselves ten-year-long village or rural improvement projects. Villages will be offered smart schools, universal access to basic health facilities and Pucca housing to homeless villagers.
The Yojana envisages the integrated development of selected villages through community participation. The scheme is termed as pushy as it intended to carry a number of growth plans for the villages. This agenda would be pertinent to approximately 44,000 villages with scheduled castes inhabitants more than 50% & so eligible for PMAGY.
The target is integrated growth of the chosen villages to have every necessary physical & public infrastructure required for surrounding socio-economic growth. Another aim is removal of difference between SCs & other society in conditions of frequent socio-economic pointers like literacy rate, success rate of basic education, child /maternal death rate & possession of prolific possessions. Success or failure will be apparent by 2016, Modi’s deadline to create the model villages he spoke about in 2014.
