A village development initiative in Maharashtra inspired by the successful Ralegan Siddhi model, focusing on sustainable rural transformation.

The Kasare project in Maharashtra is led by Dashrath Panmand, a social worker associated with the Foundation for Research in Community Health (FRCH). The initiative aims to replicate the success of Ralegan Siddhi, a well-known model village located just 18 km from Kasare. Launched in June 1987, the project has already initiated several development schemes focusing on community-led rural transformation. These efforts likely include water conservation, agriculture improvement, and social development, modeled after proven success strategies.
