India is a country where major part of its population lives in rural area and majority of rural people are deprived from the very basic amenities. There are approximately 900 villages in Mathura district. These villages are not in very good condition and do not cater to the basic needs of villages i.e. education, healthcare, employment etc. The aim of this article to demonstrate through various developmental proposals that village can be self-contained in itself by understanding & identifying the potential of that place. For the demonstration of sustainable development, village sameri of Mathura district has been taken up. The main aim of this project is to upgrade built environment of village and living conditions of villagers which include the socio-economic well-being, livable atmosphere, educational upliftment and societal integrity of the people living in the village. It is intended to show various stages of village development without degrading the environment. The article is divided into three sections: familiarization with the place, identification of issues and finally typical proposals which can also be adopted in other villages of Mathura district. The last section of conclusion and recommendation is not merely based upon theoretical study but detail surveys which were carried out by subsequent visit to the village. It is hoped that this little work will contribute in some measures to serve the society and nation.
