    It is pertinent to mention that in tune with the vision of Hon\u2019ble Prime Minister, the National Book Trust India organised the first-ever Gram Panchayat Pustak Mela and Sarpanch Seminar in Uttarakhand in 2018. In 2019 Panchayat Libraries were set-up in the Union Territory of Diu. And in 2020, the task of setting up the libraries across other States has taken an incline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The project of KCC<\/strong> is set to be a milestone in shaping the young minds through a better creative engagement of the society in reading, and making the basic unit of Indian society \u2013 the Gram Panchayat<\/strong> as an important entity \u2013 as envisioned by Mahatma Gandhi as a Mini Republic. <\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
