Banda district’s One District One Product (ODOP) is Shazar stone craft. If you work in this trade in Khamarkha, you can apply at the District Industries Centre for ODOP margin-money loans, training and toolkits.

As in most of rural Uttar Pradesh, people around Khamarkha live mainly off farming (wheat, mustard and pulses in the Rabi season, paddy, maize or sugarcane in the Kharif season, depending on the area), along with dairy and job guarantee wage work. Since July 2026 that’s VB-G RAM G, which replaced MGNREGA: a household with a job card from the gram panchayat can get at least 125 days of paid work a year. Farmers can sign up for PM-KISAN and a Kisan Credit Card through the block agriculture office or a Common Service Centre.

Administration

Under the Uttar Pradesh Panchayat Raj Act, 1947, Khamarkha is run by its elected Gram Pradhan, the Up-Pradhan and the ward members. The Gram Sabha, made up of all adult voters, approves the yearly plan and the list of scheme beneficiaries. The Panchayat Secretary (Gram Panchayat Adhikari) sent by the Kamasin block office keeps the Parivar Register (family register), the accounts and the birth and death register.

Every gram panchayat in Uttar Pradesh has to form 6 committees: Planning and Development Committee (chaired by the Pradhan), Education Committee, Construction Works Committee, Health and Welfare Committee, Administrative Committee and Water Management Committee. The Gram Sabha has to meet at least twice a year (after the Kharif and Rabi harvests). It goes over the accounts and approves the Gram Panchayat Development Plan (GPDP), which is then uploaded on eGramSwaraj. Any voter of the village can attend and ask questions.

How can I check the MGNREGA (now VB-G RAM G) job card list or PM Awas (Gramin) list of Khamarkha?

On nrega.nic.in, pick the state, then district Banda, block Kamasin and panchayat Khamarkha to see job cards, work done and wage payments. The PM Awas Yojana (Gramin) list works the same way on pmayg.dord.gov.in. New names get added through the Gram Sabha and the Kamasin block office. MGNREGA became VB-G RAM G on 1 July 2026, and e-KYC’d job cards stay valid until the new cards are issued.

The Gram Sabha of Khamarkha must meet at least twice a year (after the Kharif and Rabi harvests), and the Gram Pradhan calls the meeting.
