Panchayat Progress Index 2.0: GPs in Mandya told to achieve sustainable development goals
Speaking after inaugurating the Panchayat Progress Index 2.0 training workshop held at the Zilla Panchayat in Mandya on July 24, she said that gram panchayats should work towards becoming 'poverty-free', healthy, 'women-friendly', 'child-friendly', socially secure, and well-equipped with basic facilities by coordinating with various departments like agriculture, horticulture, health, and education.
A gram panchayat is considered a model for others if it achieves the targets set in all nine areas under the Panchayat Progress Index. Every GP has to make efforts to achieve all nine parameters for setting an example to others, she suggested.
The ZP CEO instructed all Panchayat Development Officers to seek the cooperation and support of all elected representatives in their jurisdiction, other departments, and the people towards achieving the goals.
The workshop was organised to provide information on data entry for the Panchayat Progress Index 2.0. Assistant Director (Panchayat Raj) of Brahmavar taluk, Udupi district, and Jalendra Shetty, President of 14th Kadur Gram Panchayat had been invited to share their experience from their respective districts on achieving the goals.
ZP Chief Planning Officer Dhanush, Deputy Secretary (Administration) Dhanaraj, Chief Accounts Officer Srinivas Nayak, President of the Federation of Gram Panchayat Elected Representatives Pradeep, Vice-President Suvarnavati, and members, district-level officers of various departments, executive officers of all taluk panchayats, Assistant Directors, PDOs and DEOs of selected gram panchayats were present.
