An Indian villageâ¦where⦠people do not migrate to earn breadâ¦teachers do not bunk the classesâ¦ration shop keepers are honestâ¦..roads are neat and cleanâ¦.people live with harmony. Villagers are not dependent on government for development. In other words, Gandhi's dreams are coming true in this village. Hiware Bazar of Ahmed Nagar, Maharashtra is the same village. But the present picture was not so beautiful before 1989. Hibre Bazar had been suffering from the same problem faced by rest of the villages of India. Most of the Villagers were under poverty line. But, today per capita income of Hiware Bazar is more than 28 thousand rupees. Each and every work has been done in this village only after discussing and taking decision in GRAM SABHA in last 20 years. There is no role for politicians and officers in development work. Today people of this village- Do not cultivate sugarcane and banana-Do not use Tue well for irrigation Do not tame goats Construct a Mosque for a single Muslim Family of the village. Say, no governments in Delhi or Mumbai, but we ourselves are government in our village. This film tells the story of 20 years long journey of Hiware Bazar and proves that how a village under development can grow with some serious efforts on its own. All that need is to understand that roads of development would not come through Parliament or Legislatures but Gram Sabhas.
