Swachh Bharat and village adoption by MPs

Though we are yet to hear any news about removing the hurdles to start business in India, We should welcome swachh bharat as well as village adoption scheme. While we all should strive to clean our locality, we should assert our right over conservancy workers to remove the accumulated garbage at the earliest, so that it does not stink. There should not be any politics in it. Further, village adoption scheme by a MP is a good idea. Each MP should concentrate in a single village for a year and allocate his MPLAD scheme funds for development of water conservation schemes, local power generating units through solar, gobar gas and utilising agriculture wastes apart from improving the connectivity with nearby towns or cities. It would be better if the cluster approach is adopted, where a group of about ten villages with combined population about 25000-30000 are formed into a cluster and cluster development plan is adopted. At many times, the education and health centres in rural areas fail for lack of proper support staff. If one particular village is developed with proper connectivity and infrastructure, it can be successful and people of nearby villages will benefit too. The MP has to take the initiative and meet the villagers to sell the idea honestly.
