Abstract
Saansad Adarsh Gram Yojna (SAGY) is a rural development programme broadly focusing upon the development in the villageswhich includes social development, cultural development and spread motivation among the people on social mobilization of the village community. The distinct features of this Yojna are that it is (a) demand driven (b) inspired by society (c) based on people’s participation. Saansad Adarsh Gram Yojna was launched with the aim to translate the comprehensive vision of Mahatma Gandhi about an ideal Indian village into a reality, keeping in view the present context. Under Saansad Adarsh Gram Yojna, each Member of Parliament adopts a Gram Panchayat and guides its holistic progress giving importance for social development at par with the infrastructure.
Key words: Impact, Quality of Life.
