ABSTRACT:
Vishwakarma Yojana Scheme is an initiative of the Government of Gujarat for the systematic development of
rural areas or villages by identifying the problems in villages and solving them by a methodical development
approach. This scheme has been proposed to provide the benefit of real work experience to engineering
students and apply their technical knowledge from a practical point of view especially in the planning,
development, and managing the infrastructure facilities of rural areas. It is in direction to the Rurbanization
which means the development of rural areas asurban area i.e. urbanization and providing urban amenities in
rural souls. Under this scheme, students meet all the stakeholders in a village and survey the existing facilities
then they re-imagine & re-design the social, renewable andphysical infrastructures of villagelike water supply,
electricity, essential services, road network, etc. and by that students can practice real world problems.
Keywords: Rural Development, Rurbanization, Infrastructure Facilities, Sustainable Development,
Socioeconomic Development, Engineering Approach, Village Heritage Design, Smart & Economic Designs.

(I) INTRODUCTION:
Vishwakarma Yojana scheme is one of the
approaches to mitigate the migration from rural
areas and to overcome the urban city pressure by
developing a rural soul with urban amenities
provision in rural areas itself. This scheme would
provide a ‘Design to Delivery’ solution for the
development of villages in ‘Rurban’ areas. This
initiative of the Government of Gujarat was allotted
as a pilot project to Gujarat Technological
University. In this Project firstly we have visited and
surveyed our allocated village Kamrol. Then we
have surveyed our ideal and smart villages Jarod &
Chansad respectively. Those visits helped us to
know the type of infrastructure needed in allocated
village Kamrol. With the help of Techno economic
survey, Village Gap Analysis, and also studying the
existing situations in ideal and smart village, we
were able to broadly define the requirements of
development for people of Kamrol village and also
understood the smart technologies and concepts as
smart development of the village. In the Kamrol
village, the basic requirements like a community
hall, any recreational area, public healthcare, bank,
etc. are not existing. By implanting given design
proposals, all the missing amenities can be provided
which will stop the migration of rural people
towards the urban area.

(II) NEED OF STUDY:
The Vishwakarma Yojana Scheme aims at
developing the village by providing all the urban
facilities that a city may have, yet maintaining the
Rural soul. This can be achieved by considering
various aspects such as Physical, Social, and
Renewable infrastructural facilities. The concept of
Rurbanization at regeneration and revitalization of
both the physical as well as the social environment
in villages through a judicious and economic
consumption of resources is the
betterment of the villages. Find out the village data
and survey of the whole village and improving the
growth of the village. The development should be
Gram panchayat, Hospital, Primary school, Water
tank, Anganwadi, Road & Transportation,
Recreational areas, etc. The government schemes are
being operated and run for rural development in
rural areas of the country. The survey studies are
taken up on a trial basis to access the impact of
important schemes as a whole in
development in some selected villages like this
Vishwakarma Yojana.
(III) OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
This village development scheme has been proposed
to provide the benefits of real-world experience to
engineering students of Gujarat Technological
University and simultaneously apply their technical
knowledge practically in the development of
infrastructure in rural development. With this
Project, students can improve their communication
by communicating to various stakeholders in the
village and also with the higher authorities of this
project. The important objectives of this study are to
provide infrastructures for better connectivity, civic
and different infrastructures.
A. Physical Infrastructure Facilities:- Water, Drainage,
Road, Electricity, Solid waste management, Strom
water network, Telecommunication & Other
B. Social Infrastructure Facilities:- Education, Health,
Community hall, Library, Recreational facilities &
Other

� Sustainability of Design Proposal (Any One
Design):-
In the design proposal among these proposed
designs, one is the heritage village design which is
the PublicGarden for the sustainable development
and availability of recreational area in the Kamrol
village. In the village, there is no recreational areas
existing. So that for the better living standard and
enjoyment purpose we have proposed one design of
the public garden as a recreational area in the village.
A public garden is an institution that maintains
collections of plants forpublic education and
enjoyment, in addition to research, conservation, and
higher learning. It must be open to the public and the
garden's resources and accommodations must be
made to all visitors.

(IX) CONCLUSION:
We have visited the ideal village Jarod and that visit
helped us to know about the type of infrastructure
needed by the village. With help of techno-economic
survey and gap analysis and also studying/surveying
our ideal village Jarod, we were able to broadly
define requirements of development for people of
Kamrol village. Then we have visited the smart
village Chansad and by that visit, we better
understood the smart technologies and concepts as
smart development of our allocated village Kamrol.
In the Kamrol village, the basic requirements like a
community hall, any recreational area, bank, etc. are
not existing. By implanting given design proposals,
all the missing amenities can be provided which will
stop the migration of rural people towards the urban
area which will, in turn, reduce pressure on cities.
The amenities designed under this Vishwakarma
project phase viii will be helpful for better
development of the village as physically as well as
socially, which improves the overall lifestyle of
people along with the nation with preserving nature
bit by bit. This will help in developing Smart
villagessustainably, reduce migration from villages
and prevent the cities from the urban pressure. This
should lead to some rethinking about the meaning of
efficiency beyond the usual conceptions of economic
or technical efficiency. Indeed, employment
expansion is at least as important as growth in
productivity. In a sense, both represent the utilization
of labor as a resource. Why, then, does thinking
about efficiency focus on one and neglect the other It
is important to reflect on this question and the
answer, which calls for change in politics economics,
could make the genuine difference. Students who
want to work towards the preservation of the rural
soul of the country can do many things for ourgood
and environment. By implanting the given design
proposals, we can say that all the missing amenities
are provided will stop the migration of rural people
towards the urban area. This can cause reduce the
load on urban areas as well as pollution in both
sectors can be minimized gradually.
