Introduction
Provision of Urban Amenities to Rural Areas (PURA) is a strategy for rural development
in India. This concept was given by former president Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam and discussed
in his book Target 3 Billion which he co-authored with Srijan Pal Singh. The genesis
of PURA can be traced to the work done by Nimbkar Agricultural Research Institute in the
early 1990s on Taluka energy self-sufficiency.[1] It was shown in the study that energy self-
sufficient talukas can be a new development model for rural India in terms of creation of jobs
and better amenities to its population no make basic amenities like good roads and drinking
water accessible to people even in remote villages, The Ministry of Rural
Development (MoRD), Government of India has re-launched the scheme Provision of Urban
Amenities in Rural Areas (PURA) as a Central Government scheme during the remaining
period of the eleventh five-year plan
Duties
Features
Benefits
Challenges
• Dispute between community and private developers
• Regional- Religion-Caste- Culture Conflict
• Corruption, Ignorance and complacency.
• Other parallel government schemes.
• Low quality of services
Conclusion
This model of PURA is more than a plan for "Providing Urban Amenities in Rural Areas"; it
is a "Partnership of entrepreneurs, government administrators and the local populace for
Urban Amenities within Rural Ambience". In contrast, in the present scheme of PURA, the
government proceeds alone; it does not let others have co-ownership.
It is expected that a scheme like PURA wherein all relate schemes for rural infrastructure 11
are being converged for a synchronized delivery for a period of 10 years,The PURA unit as a
whole should aim to improve the quality of life and welfare of the rural community
encouraging reverse migration of urban people to rural areas. Also, the PURA unit should
enable preservation and nurturing of our cultural heritage.

Introduction
The Saubhagya Scheme or Pradhan Mantri Sahaj Bijli Har Ghar Yojana is an Indian
government project to provide electricity to the households. The project was announced in
September 2017 by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who said that the aim was to complete
the electrification process by December 2018.[3] Certain households identified via the Socio-
economic and Caste Census (SECC) of 2011 will be eligible for free electricity connections,
while others will be charged Rs. 500. On 16 November, 2017, the government launched a
website saubhagya.gov.in to disseminate information about the scheme The total outlay of the
project is Rs. 16, 320 crores while the Gross Budgetary Support (GBS) is Rs. 12,320 crores.
The beneficiary household will get One LED lights, one DC power plug. It also includes the
Repair and Maintenance of Meter Only (R&M) for 5 years.

packs of 200 to 300 Wp(with battery bank) with a maximum of 5 LED lights, 1 DC
Fan, 1 DC power plug etc. may be provided along with the provision of Repair and
Maintenance (R&M) for 5 years.
• The details of consumers viz, Name and Aadhar number/ Mobile number/ Bank
account/ Driving License/Voter ID etc., as available would be collected by the
DISCOMs.
• The defaulters whose connections have been disconnected should not be given benefit
of the scheme. However, the utilities may consider settlement of old dues and
reconnection as per norms.

line cable, energy meter including pre-paid/smart meter, single point wiring. LED
lamps and associated accessories in line with technical specifications and construction
standard.

of the country.
Lighting after the sunset also provides a sense of enhanced personal safety, especially for
women, and increase in post sunset social as well as economic activities.

subsidy on Kerosene and would also help reduce the import of petroleum products.
Challenges
• At present, the DISCOMs are under a huge debt burden running into thousands of crores of
rupees. Though the Ujwal Discom Awas Yojana (UDAY) has been proving successful in
improving the financial health of DISCOMs, the implementation of the Saubhaygay by the
end of 2018 is a major challenge for them.
• The transmission and distribution losses of over 20% need to be reduced to a negligent level
to achieve the goals of the scheme.
• The corruption and the apathy of the lower officials in the power sector should be corrected
for its successful implementation. The involvement of Gram Sabhas in the implementation of
the scheme is a welcome step in this regard.
Conclusion
This scheme was introduced with the motive of bringing electricity thoughout the nation. The
Saubhagya Scheme is a significant initiative since it touches various aspects of human life –
employment, health, education and education. Its successful implementation is key to
building smart villages, achieving energy security and improving the lives of people living in

Introduction
Sansad Adarsh Gram Yojana (SAGY) is a rural development project launched in 2014 by the
Government of India in which each Member of Parliament will take the responsibility of
three villages and look after the personal, human, social, environmental and economic
development of the villages. This would substantially improve the standard of living as well
as the quality of life in the villages. No fundings have been provided to this project as
fundings can be raised through existing schemes.
Features
• inspired by society
• demand driven
Benefits
The activities and outcomes will cover broad development indicators such as health, nutrition
and education through organizing immunization drives, improving mid-day meal schemes,
improving Aadhaar enrolment, setting up “smart schools” with IT-enabled classrooms and e-
libraries, improving panchayat infrastructure under schemes such as MNREGA and
Backward Regions Grants Fund. A series of measures speak of better implementation of
existing and new schemes and laws including RTI Act, National Food Security Act, National
Rural Livelihood Mission, Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana, while at the same time
emphasizing “activities to improve hygienic behaviour” by encouraging bathing among
villagers, use of toilets and exercising for thirty minutes every day. It envisions social
development in villages through identifying a village day, a village song, and focusing on
alternative methods of dispute resolution
Challenges
• Corruption among the leaders which in-hand reduces the reach and affects the
implementation of the scheme.
• Mis-interpretation of the objectives.
• Difficulty to reach every part of the country.
• Language and regional barriers.
Conclusion
This scheme was introduced/put forward to develop the overall development of the country
from the regional and backward regions to improve the standard of living. At the State-level,
Chief Secretaries will lead an empowered committee on the same and the Minister for Rural
Development and Secretary, Rural Development, will chair two national-level committees to
track the scheme. SAGY is aiming at socio-economic transformation in the rural society. The
aim would be to inculcate a sense of pride, volunteerism, and self-reliance in villages. The
success of SAGY will be judged not by the allocation of funds and budgets spent, but by its
ability to fundamentally transform the culture of rural governance.
