A significant number of beneficiaries of the scheme are women and from backward community. Balod, Dhamtari, Durg, Raipur and Rajnadgaon districts have taken the lead in implementation

The new Godhan Nyay scheme by the Chhattisgarh government — advertised as revolutionary — was launched July 2020 in the backdrop of the state’s flagship ‘Naruva-Garuva-Ghuruva-Badi’ programme.

Naruva means a seasonal or perennial stream, garuva means animal husbandry, ghuruva means composting and badi means backyard kitchen garden.

The programme focused on a sustainable and integrated farming system approach focused on water management, composting for soil health, animal husbandry and sustainable agriculture on backyard kitchen gardens. Building gothans — a kind of day care centre for animals — is being promoted under the programme.

Focus on rural livelihood generation and organic farming

Under the new scheme, the state government proposes to purchase cattle dung at Rs 2 per kilogramme and plan to make different products from it through Gothan Samitis and self-help groups (SHG).

Regular payments are to be made to the seller of cattle dung after every 15 days. Vermicompost — along with other products like agarbattis and dhupbatti (different kinds of incense sticks) — will be made from the cattle dung to provide livelihood to rural community.

“This is a part of the larger perspective of going back to villages, reviving the rural economy and generating sustainable rural livelihood, as 80 per cent of the state’s population lived in villages,” said M Geeta, agriculture production commissioner and secretary of Chhattisgarh government.
