Village Development Committee


This is an initiative for smooth functioning of the developmental progarmmes in the villages and the village development committees, which also act as watchdog of program implementation, oversee all the matters pertaining to the development of the villages. GMKS has formed several village development committees such as Nirman Samittees (Construction Committees), Jal Samittees (Water Committees) & Forest Development Committees. Village Development Committees function in several villages to attain the specific purposes and goals of the development of the region. These committees take all responsibilities of the community participation in the work. These committees in close association with GMKS staff members select sites for physical work and set the priorities of the development workswhat is to be executed and what is not on the basis of the needs of the villagers.


These committees create employment opportunities for the poor villagers in the region and on rotation basis; they give chance to each and every household member for managing a decent livelihood in the village. The committees don't deploy pregnant women, elderly people and children as a labour in the physical work.

A Village Development Committee is represented by 10 members, two male and one female are taken in the committee from each fala (small village). Unlike a Village Development Committee, each Nirman Samiti or Jal Samiti has seven members in total. Each member is elected by the villagers in village meeting.
