I have stayed in different parts of India and out of all those the best place is my village. It's very small with two streets and one main road. In no particular order;
Garbage: Most villages doesn't have proper garbage disposal system. It usually involves dumping everything in the far end of the village. and ironing it once in a while. If I were you I would try to segregate the waste into compost and non compost. Use the organic waste for compost pit and plastics and stuff to collect and sell it in the nearby town once in two weeks or so.
Rainwater harvesting : Most of the government school or any facility would have that atleast my village has it but this could be implemented in all the household and that would really help in improving the ground water table .
Plastic : This is modern to village not traditional to villages. Try to eradicate the use of plastics and bring back the culture of using traditional cloth bags.
Sand/Tree exploitation: This is one of the major factors that destroys the ecology of the village. Should have strict rules for cutting trees in air around the village and also sand exploitation from rivers.
Buying local : Village might have one or two shops that sell products and villagers should try to utilize them as much as possible. Also, the farmers sell the produce that they grow in their field and you should appreciate their effort and buy from them.
Sanitation: Villagers have been using open defecation for long time but with increase in population now the process is non feasible as it can cause lot of disease and health problems. Government has provided subsidy that can be used for construction of restrooms.
Town is big and lot of things could be implemented their like solar, ground water recharge system, run off collection etc
THANKS
