The United Nations is considering a proposal to implement the Mahatma Gandhi Tanta Mukti Gaon Mohim (Dispute-free Village Scheme) of the state government in other developing nations of the world, State Home Minister R R Patil said on Monday. Pune Rural SP Pratap Dighavkar had presented the model of the scheme before the UN in New York on August 11.

“The recent presentation made by our police officers at the UN was appreciated by officials. The UN officials are considering a proposal to implement the dispute-free scheme in developing countries,” said Patil. The initiative is in its fourth successful year and villages earn points for implementation of the scheme with winners being awarded prize money between Rs 1 lakh and 10 lakh.
