Why Model Village?

Despite the existence of Panchayat Raj constitution for almost a decade in all over the country except few states like Pondicherry & Jharkand. There is no significant growth among the panchayats to function as a local self-government. There are supporting institutions, NGOs and Govt. departments to work for making the panchayats to delivers the constitutional mandates. In this situation, if there is demonstrating models for total development by the panchayats. It will create ripple among the other panchayats by showcasing the roll models.

This is easy to replicate more and more models using grassroots democracy.
