In News: Pradhan Mantri Adarsh Gram Yojana (PMAGY) aims at the overall development of selected SC majority villages.

  • Ministry: Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment
  • Pradhan Mantri Adarsh Gram Yojana is a rural development programme launched by the central government in India in the financial year 2009–10 for the development of villages having a higher ratio of people belonging to the scheduled castes through convergence of central and state schemes and allocating financial funding on a per village basis.
  • It aims to provide them with all the necessary facilities to ensure that the disparity between SC and non-SC population in terms of common socio-economic indicators is eliminated and the indicators are raised to at least the level of the national average.
  • The performance of the scheme is being monitored in terms of achievement of the targets listed out in the Village Development Plan (VDP) prepared for each village.
  • Under the PMAGY, the National Institute of Rural Development & Panchayati Raj has been identified to provide technical resource support at the national level.
