The Vishwakarma Yojana aims to enhance knowledge and contribute to the improvement of villages by providing sustainable solutions while preserving the soul of rural life. Under this scheme, villages are surveyed to identify existing infrastructure, basic facilities, and areas for improvement. The goal is to urbanize villages in a way that ensures peace of mind for residents by offering essential amenities without disrupting their traditional lifestyle. As part of this initiative, Sampa village in Godhra Taluka, Panchmahal District, Gujarat, was studied to assess its current situation and compare it to the vision of an ideal village. Through this project, technical knowledge was applied practically, enabling a deeper understanding of rural challenges and opportunities. Sampa village is located approximately 15 kilometers from the district headquarters, Godhra, and has a population of 11,235 as per the 2011 Census. The primary occupation of the residents includes agriculture and labor. The village has several basic facilities, such as primary and secondary schools, Anganwadi centers, and milk production businesses. About 70-80% of the roads are constructed with bitumen, while the remaining are gravel roads. Electricity is available 24/7, supplied by MGVCL (Madhya Gujarat Vij Company LTD). However, there is a need for further development in terms of infrastructure and public facilities. Based on the survey and feedback from villagers, proposed developments for Sampa include the construction of an elevated water tank, a community hall, public toilets, a Sarpanch or Talati office, and a skill development center. These projects aim to improve living standards, reduce migration, and ensure the holistic development of the village while fostering a balance between modernization and cultural preservation.
