INTRODUCTION:
The project is all about the rural development and it is important because it talks about the
Modis mission of model village.

Kararichak village:
It is situated in Phulwarisharif, Patna, Bihar 801505.

Model Village:
A Model Village is a sustainable rural community that is able to generate and maintain the
resources necessary to improve its level of wellbeing and happiness without depleting
economic, social & environmental values. The Model Village strengthens the sustainability
pillars of Livelihood, Infrastructure and Services. The Model Village Plan is a natural
next step in line with current focus on Services and presents a holistic mechanism of
bringing about sustainability of a village community unit. The vision of a model village is to
envision sustainable rural communities that are able to generate and maintain the resources
necessary to increase their level of well being and happiness without depleting economic,
social & environmental values. The goal of a model village is To understand a community
ecosystem and engage 500 rural communities in the development of village based microenterprises that enable the increase of assets, income generation opportunities, provision of
adequate services and advancement of social equity and sustainability by 2016.Model Village
Plan envisages sustainability of a village community by supporting all the pillars of
sustainability namely Livelihood, Infrastructure and Services. Model Village presents a
credible vehicle for bringing about sustainability of a village community unit, which is in line
with current focus on Services pillar. The plan is scaling up of Model Village from 1 village
in 2011/12 to 500 villages in 2016/17.
A model village is a type of mostly self-contained community built from the late 18th
century onwards by landowners and industrialists to house their workers. Although the
villages are located close to the workplace, they are generally physically separated from them
and often consist of relatively high quality housing, with integrated community amenities and

attractive physical environments. "Model" is used in the sense of an ideal to which other
developments could aspire.
Difference between rural and urban:
Village is undeveloped area or it is away from the city. It is also say remote area. In village
we cant get easily many facilities like as a city. It is undeveloped area but it is nature of
beauty .in the village we can see many natural things like mountain, hills, ever green forest,
lakes etc. In the village area many people are farmer they product many food items like Mize,
corn, wheat etc. And other vegetables like potato, cabbages, ladyfingers, cucumber, tomato,
pumpkin, chills etc. They also keep many wild animals goat, buffalos, cow, hens, ducks, etc.
to eat meat, meal and to produce fertilizer. Some people do small business, shopkeeper,
furniture shop and other small size of business. So the village is called remote or undeveloped
area where people life style is different from urban areas people they were simple cloths, they
cook a food by fire, almost foods item were produce by themselves.
Most Indian villages are small; nearly 80 percent have fewer than 1,000 inhabitants,
according to the 1991 census. Most are nucleated settlements, while others are more
dispersed. It is in villages that India's most basic business--agriculture--takes place. Here, in
the face of vicissitudes of all kinds, farmers follow time-tested as well as innovative methods
of growing wheat, rice, lentins, vegetables, fruits, and many other crops in order to
accomplish the challenging task of feeding themselves and the nation. Here, too, flourish
many of India's most valued cultural forms.
Viewed from a distance, an Indian village may appear deceptively simple. A cluster of mudplastered walls shaded by a few trees, set among a stretch of green or dun-coloured fields,
with a few people slowly coming or going, oxcarts creaking, cattle lowing, and birds singing-all present an image of harmonious simplicity. Indian city dwellers often refer nostalgically
to "simple village life." City artists portray colourfully garbed village women gracefully
carrying water pots on their heads, and writers describe isolated rural settlements unsullied by
the complexities of modern urban civilization. Social scientists of the past wrote of Indian
villages as virtually self-sufficient communities with few ties to the out.
There is no single solution to end poverty. But a holistic approach that provides access to five
key pillars education, clean water and sanitation, food security, healthcare, and alternative
income empowers a community with the means to forever lift itself from poverty.
The government recently adopted the concept of developing Model Villages for over all
development of the rural areas. The idea is not only to provide basic services in rural areas to
check migration of population and improve quality of life to demonstrate the use of latest
technology and ensure integrated development of these areas.
Under the PMs Reconstruction Plan 57 villages, one in each block recommended by the
elected representatives have been approved for development as Model Villages by the
Rural Development Department. The Project Reports/Action Plans were prepared in
consultation with gram panchayats. The main thrust has been given on the following areas:

Improvement in overall sanitation of the village including lane/drains.

Use of Solar Technology for Street Lights.

Creation of essential facilities like CFCs, Playground and Recreation Parks.

Establishment of Rural Informatics Centers.

Small shopping Line/Lines for Local Educated Youths.

Village Development Plan:

A village development plan is a written document. It identifies issues of concern to that
village. Opportunities, strengths, threats and weaknesses of a village are defined. It also
provides practical actions that will result in an improved village. It provides opportunities for
resource mobilization. A village plan does three essential things. It provides a VISION of
what you would like your village to look like, sets out clear GOALS to achieve that vision,
and gives you an ACTION PLAN to reach those goals. The objective of Village
Development Plan is to develop the selected village in an integrated manner. This would
include economic development, infrastructure development and other aspects of human
development i.e., education, health, drinking water supply, etc. The Plan should aim at
developing the selected village in such a manner that it becomes a replicable model for
holistic development.

Purpose of village development planning:

To learn the basic need of communities after analyzing their problems with Sharpeyed observations and experiences.

To extract detailed information from a larger and more representative group of SC

dominated societies than from observation alone.

To ascertain the status of the village, at the commencement of PMAGY, (i) across
various socio-economic parameters preferably over time, (ii) in terms of coverage
of various development schemes, GVT-JAIPUR VDP-KAGLA 6 BAMORI

To compile data in such a way as to identify needs, areas of intervention, and

facilitate preparation of a Village Development Plan, and

To serve as a benchmark against which to assess the progress due to PMAGY at the
end of three years.

To get community participation and more people actually involved in the

subsequent action itself.

To identify employment needs, scope of self employment level of employment and

farming system development for higher economic growth and stability with
predefined economic indicators,

To identify gender wise critical educational, health, and recreation needs with
specific social indicators like literacy, education, training and skills, and opportunities

for all members of the society cutting across gender, age, caste and religion to
evaluate the impact in the future.

To identify infrastructural needs of the target area and prioritize them.

To explore opportunity of networking / partnerships with Govt. /Local bodies
