Addressing the people through a video conference, Chief Minister Promod Sawant said that no state could flourish if the villages were not self-sufficient and hence village panchayat should adopt various sustainable measures to gain economic empowerment for its village.
Purpose of the programme
The major objective of the programme is to ensure that every village in the state becomes self-reliant or Aatmanirbhar.
Every village in the state will become self-reliant by harnessing resources available within the area where it is located.
As a part of the initiative government officers, teachers and students reach out to each and every village panchayat.
A study of the economic revival for village panchayats was undertaken by the Directorate of Higher Education and GIPARD.
25 colleges were involved in the process of data collection, preparation of individual reports of 191 village panchayats.
The action plan consists of various aspects of agriculture, animal husbandry, youth and adolescent, senior citizens, women and self-help groups.
The action plan also includes tourism, fisheries, natural resources, various schemes and their convergence.
