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.
