The programme was launched by the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi on the birth anniversary of Jayaprakash Narayan on 11 October, 2014.
Speaking on the occasion, MP Dr. Lorhostated that Saansad Adarsh Gram Yojana (SAGY) was launched on 11th October 2014 by PM Narendra Modi with the aim to translate the comprehensive vision of Mahatma Gandhi about an ideal Indian village into reality, keeping in view the present context. Under SAGY, each Member of Parliament adopts a Gram Panchayat and guides its holistic progress giving importance for social development at par with infrastructure.
Dr. Lorhostated that he has selected to adopt Daili village under SAGY as Daili is a beautiful village comprehensively inhabited by various tribal communities along with some Meiteis and Nepalis. This village has the potential to be converted into one of the most beautiful villages in the country.
“SAGY is not a project where the government is the giver and villagers are the receivers. It is a programme where one needs to introspect deeply for what he or she could contribute to the society for the welfare of the people for harmonious and peaceful co-existence”, he stated. “However, there is something that is blocking each and every one of us from taking up a new initiative or a new step to bring new development for a better and harmonious environment. So let us do away with hatred, fear, enmity, etc., amongst us and move forward to contribute for a better tomorrow. Let us make ourselves a model to make Dailimodel village more beautiful and more prosperous”, the MP added.
