Deliberating on the need for organizing such training cum workshop, Sheetal said, “A team of master trainers need to be prepared and trained so that the team can further impart the same to Sarpanches and Panches at district and block levels.”

She further added that Sarpanches and Panches should be made cognizant of their rights, roles and responsibilities. “They should be imparted training regarding guidelines of all the centrally sponsored schemes such as PMAY (G), MGNREGA, GPDP so that these schemes are implemented efficiently at the ground level.”
