When KCR the CM of Telangana has decided to increase the grama Panchayats, the Centre had decided to give mark sheets for gram panchayats on 21 development parameters. This includes economic activities and human resources, a top official said.

This is the government’s latest attempt at alleviating poverty in rural India. The village bodies will be given marks out of 100 and those with lower marks will receive more importance and resources, said Amarjeet Sinha, rural development secretary.

The mark sheet will be made public next week by the Union rural development ministry.

Ever since coming to power in 2014, the Narendra Modi government has launched several schemes aimed at bridging the urban-rural divide, mainly through increased economic activities in villages.
