Saansad Adarsh Gram Yojana

About the Scheme :- 


The Scheme was launched on the occasion of birth anniversary of Lok Nayak Jai Prakash Narayan on 11 OCtober 2014 .

It is a village development project under which each Member of Parliament will take the responsibility of developing physical and institutional infrastructure in three villages by 2019.

The goal is to develop three Adarsh Grams or model villages by March 2019, of which one would be achieved by 2016.

Thereafter, five such Adarsh Grams (one per year) will be selected and developed by 2024.

Implementation: 


The scheme will be implemented through a village development plan that would be prepared for every identified gram panchayat with special focus on enabling every poor household to come out of poverty.

The constituency fund, MPLADS, would be available to fill critical financing gaps.

The planning process in each village will be a participatory exercise coordinated by the District Collector.

The MP will play an active facilitating role in this exercise.

Adoption and adaptation of technology and introduction of innovations are critical to this programme.

This will include use of space application and remote sensing for planning, mobile based technology for monitoring, agriculture technology for increasing productivity etc.

At the national level, a separate, real time web based monitoring system will be put in place for the scheme covering all aspects and components.

The Ministry will put in place a specially designed capacity building programme for Government functionaries at different levels including Gram Panchayats.

At the state level there will be an Empowered Committee headed by the Chief Secretary consisting of the relevant Departments and including experts, as required with at least two Civil Society representatives.

The district Collector will be the nodal officer for implementing the SAGY. He will conduct a monthly review meeting with representatives of the participating Line Departments.

The Members of Parliament concerned will chair the review meetings.

BENEFITS /FOCUS :- 


SAGY gives focus to community participation. Social mobilization of village community can trigger a chain of other development activities in the village. For instance, reducing risk behaviours like alcoholism, smoking, substance abuse (drugs/tobacco/gutkha etc) among all age groups of population. Women participation in the decision-making process will be encouraged.
