programmes in the Ministry.
(i)
Monitoring Mechanism
3.
The Ministry of Rural Development places special emphasis on
Monitoring and Evaluation of its programmes being implemented in rural
areas all over the country, particularly in view of the substantial step up in
the allocation of funds under various Rural Development Programmes over
the years. The success of the programmes largely depends on the effective
delivery system and efficient implementation at the grass root level so that
the programme benefits reach the rural poor in full measure. In order to
ensure this, the Ministry has evolved a comprehensive multi-level and multitool system of Monitoring and Evaluation for the implementation of its
programmes. The salient features are as under:
i)
There is an in-built monitoring mechanism in the guidelines of each
Scheme of the Department so as to ensure that the objectives of the
Schemes are achieved by their implementation.
ii)
Besides visiting States/UTs , the Minister of Rural Development and
the Ministers of State for Rural Development periodically review the
performance of programmes with the Chief Ministers, Ministers and
officials of the State Governments concerned with the implementation
of the programmes.
iii)
Continuous monitoring through periodical progress reports received
from the State Governments depicting both the financial and physical
progress of the programmes. The Ministry has streamlined the data
processing system to ensure that Monthly Progress Reports are
received by 10th of every month.
iv)
Furnishing of Utilisation Certificates, Audited Accounts and other
requisite reports are a pre-condition for the release of the second and
the subsequent instalments of grants-in-aid under the Schemes
v)
The officers dealing with the implementation of the programmes at
State Headquarters visit the districts regularly to ensure that the
programmes are being implemented satisfactorily.
vi)
The „Area Officers Scheme‟ introduced by the Ministry aims at
monitoring the major programmes of the Ministry with special
reference to quality, adherence to implementation schedule, flow of
funds, proper utilisation of funds and achievement of physical and
financial targets etc., through field visits. Officers visit their assigned
State and districts at regular intervals and the important observations
of such teams are
(ii)
shared with the State Government concerned, advising them totake
appropriate corrective measures, wherever shortcomings are noticed.
vii) A Performance Review Committee under the chairmanship of
Secretary (RD) periodically reviews the performance of various
programmes being implemented by the States and recommends
corrective action wherever found necessary.
viii) In order to minimize time lag in receiving progress reports of all the
rural development programmes, and improve the quality of reporting,
one Nodal Officer from each State co-ordinates with all the concerned
Departments implementing rural development programmes in the
respective States and attend the monthly review meetings.
ix)
x)
With a view to fulfill the objective of ensuring quality in
implementation, particularly in the context of large public funds being
spent under the programmes of the Ministry, the Vigilance &
Monitoring Committees are constituted for providing a crucial role for
the Members of Parliament and elected representatives of the people in
State Legislatures and Panchayati Raj Institutions in the
implementation of the Rural Development Programmes.
A panel of National Level Monitors (NLMs) by involving exservicemen and retired civil servants has also been constituted to
ensure effective implementation of rural development programmes
in transparent manner and strictly in accordance with programme –
wise guidelines.
xi) Concurrent Evaluation studies are undertaken through reputed and
independent Research Institutions/Organisations from time to time to
evaluate the performance of various Rural Development Programmes
at the field level, to assess the impact of the programmes.
4.
The existing Monitoring Systems in the Ministry have been explained
in detail in Chapter VII.
Public Information System
5.
Information, Education and Communication (IEC) plays a vital role in
creating awareness, mobilizing people and making the development
participatory throughadvocacy and by transferring knowledge, skills and
techniques to the people. Moreover, IEC plays two most important
(iii)
roles – informative and persuasive and as such is crucial for bringing about
requisite social mobilization and facilitating participatory development.
6.
The Ministry is responsible for planning and executing IEC activities
to create awareness about the programmes of the Ministry primarily amongst
the target groups in the rural areas. IEC activities assume more significance
in the context of the programmes of the Ministry which aim at improving the
socio-economic conditions and which need to be implemented effectively in
a time bound manner.
7.
The Ministry has a well laid IEC strategy to disseminate information
through both the traditional as well as modern media of communication viz
press, radio, TV, printed material, outdoor publicity, folk and other
traditional media etc.
8.
In view of the magnitude of the task of reaching out to rural poor with
information on rural development programmes and to mobilize participation
of other segments of the society in rural development, IEC activities have
been substantially scaled up. IEC activities undertaken by the Ministry are
outlined in detail in Chapter VII.
(iv)
CHAPTER – I
INTRODUCTION
The basic function of the Ministry of Rural Development is to realise
the objectives of alleviating rural poverty and ensuring improved quality of
life for the rural population, especially those below the poverty line. These
objectives are sought to be achieved through formulating, developing and
implementing programmes relating to various spheres of rural life and a
range of activities from income generation to environmental replenishment.
2.
The Ministry consists of the following two Departments:(i) Department of Rural Development
(ii) Department of Land Resources
3.
The Department of Rural Development implements schemes for
generation of self-employment and wage employment, provision of housing
to rural poor and construction of rural roads. Apart from this, the
Department provides support services such as assistance for strengthening of
DRDA Administration, training & research, human resource development,
development of voluntary action etc. for proper implementation of the
programmes. It also undertakes IEC activities to promote awareness about
rural development programmes in rural areas.
4. Department of Land Resources implements schemes to increase the biomass production by developing wastelands and degraded lands in the country.
It also undertakes development of desert areas and drought prone areas in the
country. The Department also provides support services and other quality
inputs for land reforms, betterment of revenue system and land records.
5.
The Parliament approved the historic legislation, Mahatma Gadhi
National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA) in 2005 which
was notified on 7th September, 2005. The Act provides a legal guarantee of at
least 100 days of wage employment in every financial year to every rural
household whose adult members volunteer to do unskilled manual work.
The Act was implemented in 200 districts in first phase with effect from
2nd February, 2006. Additional 130 districts of the country were covered in
the second phase during 2007-2008. All the remaining rural areas/districts of
the country have been brought under Mahatma Gandhi NREGA with effect
from April 1, 2008.
6.
Mahatma Gandhi NREGA is premised on demand for employment.
The instrument of employment generation is unskilled manual labour works
relating to water conservation, drought proofing (including afforestation/tree
plantation), and rural connectivity through all-weather roads. The Act also
has elaborate transparency safeguard measures through a number of
processes such as job cards, work applications, dated receipts, numbered
muster rolls, timely payment, social audit and grievance redressal.
7.
The Swaranjayanti Gram Swarozgar Yojana (SGSY) has been
restructured as National Rural Livelihoods Mission (NRLM) in June 2010, to
implement it in a mission mode in a phased manner for targeted and time
bound delivery of results. NRLM has now been renamed as Aajeevika.
The objective of the NRLM is to reduce poverty by enabling the poor
households to access gainful self-employment and skilled wage employment
opportunities resulting in appreciable improvement in their livelihoods on a
sustainable basis, through building strong and sustainable grassroots
institutions of the poor. The main features of the NRLM are to bring each
BPL household under SHG net, setting up of dedicated implementation
structure at various levels, enhanced capital subsidy for the beneficiaries,
easy access for multiple doses of credit to rural BPL from banks at low rate
of interest, formation and strengthening of people owned organization such
as SHG Federations at various level and upscale the skill development and
placement programmes. For capacity building & training, Rural Self
Employment Training institute (RSETIs) are being set up progressively in
each district of the country. Special emphasis is given for convergence with
programmes related to technology inputs in order to achieve synergies. The
financial assistance under NRLM would be shared between the centre and
states in the ratio of 75:25 except North Eastern States including Sikkim
where the funding ratio is 90:10.
8.
Under NRLM, 15% of funds are available for placement linked skill
development projects. The objective of each Special Projects for Skill
Development would be to ensure a time-bound training and capacity building
programme for bringing a specific number of Below Poverty Line (BPL)
families above the poverty line through placement ensuring regular wage
employment
9.
Mahila Kisan Sashaktikaran Pariyojana (MKSP) is a sub – component
of the NRLM to meet the specific needs of women farmers and achieve
socio-economic and technical empowerment of the rural women farmers,
predominantly small and marginal farmers. New livelihood vertical based on
Non Timber Forest Produce (NTFP) has also been included under MKSP.
2
10. Aajeevika believes that successful innovations can reduce the learning
curve for poverty eradication by showing a different pathway out of poverty.
Upto 5% of the Central allocation is therefore, earmarked for innovations.
Those innovations, which have the potential for reaching out specifically to
the poorest or for reaching out to the largest number of poor and having
maximum impact with limited resources, would be preferred and supported
11. The Ministry of Rural Development is also implementing a new
scheme titled “ Skill Empowerment and Employment in J&K (SEE J&K)
“Himayat”. It envisages covering one lakh youth from rural & urban areas in
the next five years. It will cover all youth with diverse education background
i.e school dropout, under graduate etc. 70% of the funds will be utilized for
skilled wage employment and remaining 30% for self employment. It is a
100% central assistance scheme.
12. The Indira Awaas Yojana (IAY) is a flagship scheme of the Ministry
of Rural Development to provide affordable housing to all rural poor by 2012
and to replace all kutcha houses by 2016-17. Under the scheme, financial
assistance is provided to shelterless rural BPL households for construction of
dwelling units. The ceiling for construction of a new house was Rs.45,000/per unit in plain areas and Rs.48,500/- in hilly/difficult areas/Left Wing
Extremists affected districts. The grants under the scheme are released by the
Centre and States in the ratio of 75:25. However, in the case of North-Eastern
States, the funding is shared in the ratio of 90:10 by Centre and the States. In
case of UT‟s, the entire funds are provided by the centre.
13. Rural Housing is one of the six components of „Bharat Nirman‟
Programme. Under „Bharat Nirman‟ Phase-I, 60 lakh houses were envisaged
to be constructed through IAY in four year from 2005-06 to 2008-09.
Against this target, 71.76 lakh were constructed thereby exceeding the target.
„Bharat Nirman‟ Phase-II envisages construction of 120 lakh houses over a
period of five years starting from 2009-10. During the year 2009-10 to 201112, 85.72 lakh houses were constructed and for the current year 2012-13, the
physical target is for construction of 30.00 lakh houses. Thus about 115.72
lakh houses are likely to be constructed during the first four years of Phase-II.
14. Rural Road Connectivity is not only a key component of Rural
Development but is also recognized as an effective Poverty Reduction
Programme. Keeping in view the fact that Rural Roads are vital to economic
growth and poverty alleviation in the villages, Government have launched a
100% Centrally Sponsored Scheme called the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak
Yojana (PMGSY) on 25th December, 2000. The Programme envisages
connecting all eligible unconnected habitations with a population of 500
3
persons and above in plain areas and 250 persons and above in Hilly States,
Tribal (Schedule V) areas, the Desert Areas and in the selected Tribal and
Backward Distircts under Integrated Action Plan (IAP) as identified by the
Ministry of Home Affairs / Planning Commission.
15. After revision of Core Network, , 1.65 lakh habitations are targeted for
providing road connectivity under the PMGSY. The programme also has an
„Upgradation‟ component with a target to upgrade 3.75 lakh k.m. of existing
rural roads (including 40% renewal of rural roads to be funded by the States)
in order to ensure full farm to market connectivity.
16. Rural Roads is one of the six components of „Bharat Nirman‟
Programme which has set a goal to provide connectivity to all habitations
with a population of 1000 persons and above (500 persons and above in the
case of hilly or tribal areas) with all-weather road by 2012 subject to
availability of funds.
17. In order to strengthen the District Rural Development Agencies
(DRDAs) and to make them more professional and effective, a new centrally
sponsored scheme, namely, DRDA Administration was introduced from 1 st
April, 1999. Under the scheme, grants are released to DRDAs to meet their
salary and contingent expenses. The mandate of DRDAs is to effectively
manage and implement the anti-poverty programmes of the Ministry of Rural
Development and interact with other agencies. The grants under the scheme
are released by the Centre and State in the ratio of 75 : 25 (90:10 in the case
of North Eastern States including Sikkim).
18. A Scheme namely „Management Support to Rural Development
Programmes and Strengthening of District Planning Process‟ has been
introduced from 2007-2008, which primarily focuses on the following:
(a) Training and skill development of Rural Development functionaries and
members of Panchayati Raj Institutions in rural development at Centre,
state and District/Block level by providing financial support to State
Institutes of Rural Development and Extension Training Centres apart
from organization of training courses/seminars/workshops relating to
rural development programmes.
(b) Creating awareness amongst the target groups of Rural Development
Programmes and mobilizing them towards participatory development;
sensitizing opinion makers, urban elites about issues relating to Rural
Development and creating awareness amongst the general public.
4
(c) Evolving a comprehensive system for effective monitoring and
evaluation of various rural development programmes through periodical
progress reports, annual conferences, workshops and seminars and
inspection through field visits by
Senior officers of the
Ministry, besides carrying out in-depth studies in the form of concurrent
evaluation and impact assessment studies through reputed and
independent research organizations to ascertain the impact of these
programmes.
(d) Exploiting the advances of Information Technology for effective
implementation of Rural Development Programmes.
(f) Promoting Regional and International exchange of experience of India
on mutual and multi-lateral basis in the field of rural development with
other developing countries with overall objective of Capacity Building
of functionaries involved in rural development.
19. A Socio Economic and Caste Census (SECC 2011) has been launched
on 29th June 2011 in the country which would be carried out by the
respective State/Union Territory Governments with the financial and
technical support of the Government of India. Socio Economic and Caste
Census consists of Census in Rural areas and Urban areas in connection with
identification of BPL households and Caste Census throughout the country
and is being carried out in all the States/UTs in a phased manner taking into
consideration their preparedness and other relevant considerations. The
Census is expected to be completed by May 2013.
20. About 96% of the enumeration under SECC 2011 has already been
completed. The Verification and Correction module has been launched and
the States are in the process of completing the exercise.
21. Under the Department of Rural Development there are three
autonomous bodies viz. Council for Advancement of People‟s Action and
Rural Technology (CAPART), National Institute of Rural Development
(NIRD) and National Rural Roads Development Agency (NRRDA).
22. The Council for Advancement of People‟s Action and Rural
Technology (CAPART) located at New Delhi has been set up to encourage
participation of voluntary agencies in rural development and also to provide
financial assistance to them for their rural development projects.
23. The National Institute of Rural Development (NIRD), Hyderabad is
5
engaged in planning and co-ordination of national level training research and
action research in the field of rural development.
24.
The National Rural Roads Development Agency (NRRDA) at New
Delhi is another autonomous body extending support to the Pradhan Mantri
Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) through advice on Technical Specifications,
Project Appraisal, appointment of part time Quality Control Monitors,
Management of Monitoring Systems etc.
25. The Government has approved the restructured Provision of Urban
Amenities in Rural Areas (PURA) Scheme for implementation on pilot basis.
The scheme proposes holistic and accelerated development of compact areas
around a potential growth centre in a Gram Panchayat (or a group of Gram
Panchayats) through Public Private Partnership (PPP) framework for
providing livelihood opportunities and urban amenities to improve the
quality of life in rural areas. The primary objectives of the scheme are the
provision of livelihood opportunities and urban amenities in rural areas to
bridge the rural – urban divide.
26. With a view to fulfill the objective of ensuring quality in
implementation, particularly in the context of large public funds being spent
under the programmes of the Ministry, the Vigilance & Monitoring
Committees are constituted for providing a crucial role for the Members of
Parliament and elected representatives of the people in State Legislatures and
Panchayati Raj Institutions in the implementation of the Rural Development
Programmes.
27. A panel of National Level Monitors (NLMs) by involving exservicemen and retired civil servants has also been constituted to ensure
effective implementation of rural development programmes intransparent
manner and strictly in accordance with programme guidelines.
Important Programmes
28.
The Department implements the following major programmes :
(i)
Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee
Scheme (Mahatma Gandhi NREGS)
(ii) Aajeevika - National Rural Livelihood Mission (NRLM)
(iii) Indira Awaas Yojana(IAY)

Cooperation, Information Technology etc.
29. Apart from above mentioned schemes, the Department of Rural
Development is also monitoring implementation of National Social
Assistance Programme(NSAP). The programme was launched on 15 th
August, 1995 as a Centrally Sponsored Scheme. The NSAP consists of (i)
Indira Gandhi National Old Age Pension Scheme(IGNOAPS), (ii) Indira
Gandhi National Widow Pension Scheme(IGNWPS), (iii) Indira Gandhi
National Disability Pension Scheme(IGNDPS), (iv) National Family Benefit
Scheme(NFBS) and (v) Annapurna. The funds for NSAP are released as
Additional Central Assistance(ACA) by the Ministry of Finance.
Implementing Agencies
30. The programmes of rural development are being implemented through
the State Government/U.T. Administrations. At the District level, the Zila
Parishad/District Rural Development Agencies and down below the
Intermediate Panchayat / Block Development Office at Block level and
Village Panchayat at village level implement the programmes. The Central
assistance is directly provided to the implementing agencies at District level
in respect of programmes like SGSY, MGNREGA, Rural Housing(IAY),
DRDA Administration etc. In the case of PMGSY, the Central assistance is
provided to State Rural Road Development Agencies. In the case of
Aajeevika-NRLM also central assistance is provided to State Agencies.
District Level Committees and State Level Committees oversee the
implementation of the programmes.
Transmission of Funds to the Implementing Agencies
31. The funds under the various programmes implemented by the
Department of Rural Development are mainly released directly to the District
7
Rural Development Agencies (DRDAs) / implementing agencies. In order
to minimise the delay in the transmission of funds, a system of telegraphic
transfer was in operation for release of funds to the District Rural
Development Agencies (DRDAs) / implementing agencies whereas for the
release of funds to the States, „release advices‟ were being sent through FAX
messages to R.B.I. Nagpur till 2005-2006.
32. However, in order to further minimize the delay in transmitting the
funds to the implementing agencies, the Ministry has shifted to e-payment
mode from the year 2006-2007 which involves Core Banking System (CBS)
network of accredited banker of the Ministry and Real Time Gross
Settlement (RTGS) Mode being provided by Reserve Bank of India to other
banks.
8
CHAPTER – II
Outcome Budget for 2013-2014
***
The Ministry of Finance has introduced „Outcome Budget‟ as a
mechanism to measure the development outcomes of all major programmes.
The exercise is primarily meant to convert financial outlays into measurable
and monitorable outcomes. It is a performance measurement tool that helps
in better service delivery, decision making, evaluating programme
performance and results and improving programme effectiveness. The
Outcome Budget is also aimed at changing the outlook of the agencies
entrusted with the responsibility of programme execution and
implementation. The idea is to make the programme implementing agencies
more result oriented by shifting the focus from „outlays‟ to „outcomes‟.
2.
The target groups under various programmes are rural poor covering
different sections of the society including SCs, STs and rural women. The
programme guidelines incorporate certain provisions for focused attention on
these groups and the outcomes under these programmes are specifically
monitored to ensure that adequate benefits of the programmes flow to them.
The Scheme-wise details of the Outcome Budget for the year 2013-2014 are
indicated in the attached Statement.

CHAPTER – III
REFORM MEASURES & POLICY INITIATIVES
The Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act
(Mahatma Gandhi NREGA)
The objective of the Mahatma Gandhi NREGA is to provide enhanced
livelihood security to the households in rural areas by providing at least 100
days of guaranteed wage employment in a financial year to every household
whose adult members are willing to do unskilled manual work. The Act has
come into force in 200 notified Districts of the country with effect from 2 nd
February, 2006 and additional 130 districts from 2007-08. All the remaining
districts of the Country have been brought in the ambit of the Act from 1 st
April, 2008. The statutory commitment, to cover all districts of the Country
within five years of the implementation of the Act, has thus been fulfilled.
2 The Mahatma Gandhi NREGA is a demand based programme, hence,
requirement of funds and employment generation depend on demand for work.
However, the financial outlay (B.E.) under Mahatma Gandhi NREGA for 201213 is Rs.33,000 crore.
3. Since the demand for employment can only be met by opening up of works,
there has been a major emphasis on advance preparation of shelf of projects at
the village panchayat level. At the same time, the focus has been on ensuring
greater transparency in the implementation of schemes formulated by States.
Para 31 of Schedule II of the Act has been amended for making wage payment
to Mahatma Gandhi NREGA workers through Bank and Post Office accounts.
Major Initiatives
4. For better and effective implementation of the Mahatma Gandhi NREGA,
the following initiatives have been taken to increase Transparency and Public
Accountability:
(a) Ombudsman: The Ministry has issued instructions to States to institute an
Ombudsman for each of the districts where MGNREGA is being implemented.
The Ombudsman receives complaints from Mahatma Gandhi NREGA
workers and others on any matter relating to irregularities in the
20
implementation of MGNREGA, considers such complaints and
their disposal in accordance with law.
facilitates
(b) Social Audit Rules: The Ministry has notified, in consultation with the
Comptroller & Auditor General of India, The Mahatma Gandhi NREG Audits
of Schemes Rules, 2011. It aims to encourage public participation in the
implementation of the Mahatma Gandhi NREGS leading to strengthening of the
programme.
5. For effective Administrative and Financial Management of Mahatma Gandhi
NREGA major initiatives that have been taken up are as follows:
i) Labour Budget: Under Section 14(6) of NREG Act, District Programme
Coordinators are required to prepare Labour Budget in the month of December
for the next financial year containing the details of anticipated demand of
unskilled manual work. The procedures and principles for Labour Budget have
been put in place and operationalised in 2009-10. The Labour Budget principle
ensures smooth fund-flow on rational basis to the districts for implementation
of Mahatma Gandhi NREGA Scheme.
ii) Wage rate: in pursuance to the announcement by Hon‟ble Finance Minister in
his Budget Speech 2009 to provide a real wage of Rs 100/- a day as an
entitlement under the Mahatma Gandhi NREGA, Government of India has
taken a decision to index wage rate notified under MGNREGA to the Consumer
Price Index for Agricultural Labour (CPIL) and, accordingly, issued the
notification dated 14/1/2011 in the Gazette of India, [Extraordinary], notifying
the revised wage rates under sub-section (1) of Section (6) of the Mahatma
Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act, 2005. Wage rates have
been further revised in 2012 vide notification dated 23.3.2012 effective from 1st
April, 2012. It has been decided to revise the wage rate on the basis of CPIAL
once in a year.
iii)
State Employment Guarantee Fund: Under Section 21(1) of MGNREG
Act, States have been instructed to establish State Employment Guarantee
Fund. The State Fund would give greater flexibility to the States in
management of fund for implementation of Mahatma Gandhi NREGA. State
Fund has been set up in 18 States viz. Rajasthan, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka,
Himachal Pradesh, Orissa, West Bengal Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh,
Punjab, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Bihar, Jharkhand, Tripura, Haryana, Maharashtra,
Chattisgarh and Kerala. Central funds for Mahatma Gandhi NREGA are being
21
directly released to State Fund account of the respective States.
iv)
Strengthening administrative support systems: The Ministry has
permitted use of upto 6% of the expenditure incurred in implementation of
schemes, in a year, as administrative expenses. The Ministry has recommended
for the recruitment of one Gram Rozgar Sewak Sahayak in every Panchayat,
one technical assistant for every five Gram Panchayats, at least one computer
assistant per block and one full time dedicated programme officer in every
block. A scheme for dedicated manpower for Gram Panchayats in Integrated
Action Plan (IAP) Districts is also in force.
v)
Pilot Initiatives: To build on the current programme implementation and to
leverage Mahatma Gandhi NREGA for sustainable development, the Ministry
has started pilot projects in Rajasthan. These initiatives include training and
skill building for Mahatma Gandhi NREGA workers, basic literacy, computer
and financial literacy and facilitating wage payment through business
correspondent mode.
vi) Convergence: In order to have an integrated approach towards creation of
durable assets and enhancement of livelihood security in rural areas, the
Ministry has developed and disseminated convergence guidelines with different
centrally sponsored schemes. Some of the programmes where MGNREGA
is to be converged with are: Indian Council of Agricultural Research, National
Aforestation Programme and other schemes of the Ministry of Forest &
Environment, Schemes of the Ministry of Water Resources, PMGSY
(Department of Rural Development), SGSY (Department of Rural
Development), Watershed Development Programmes (Department of Land
Resources, Ministry of Rural Development) and schemes of Ministry of
Agriculture. The scope of MGNREGA has been expanded by providing access
to sanitation facilities in convergence with the Total Sanitation Campaign of the
Ministry of Drinking Water and Sanitation.
(vii) Payment through Bank and Post Offices: To strengthen the institutional
outreach for Mahatma Gandhi NREGA wage disbursement, State Governments
have been suggested to roll out Business Correspondent (BC) Model to make
wage payment through Banks with Bio-metric authentication at village level.
Further, Ministry is continuously following–up the matter with Department of
22
Financial Service and Reserve Bank of India. Meeting has been held between
Deputy Governor, RBI and Secretary, MoRD for speedy payment through
Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) by adopting Business Correspondent Model.
(viii) Aadhaar enabled payment system for disbursement of wages: 46
districts have been shortlisted with an objective to seed in the Aadhaar number
of the MGNREGA workers and to achieve complete “e-Disbursement” for
MGNREGA workers.
(ix) Constitution of Implementation Committee on Electronic Transfer of
Benefits to the beneficiaries of MGNREGA & NSAP: A committee has been
constituted under the Chairmanship of Secretary (RD) to look into all
implementation issues relating to Electronic Transfer of Benefits to the
beneficiaries of MGNREGA & NSAP.
(x) Focus on IAP districts: Special emphasis has been put on the development
of districts covered under Integrated Action Plan (IAP). Following initiatives
have been undertaken for the effective implementation of MGNREGA in IAP
districts:
 To ensure timely wage payment to the MGNREGA workers cash payments
have been allowed in areas where the outreach of Banks/Post Offices is highly
inadequate.
 Issues on human and technical support at the district and sub-district levels
for implementing Mahatma Gandhi NREGS have been assessed and States are
permitted to deploy core professional staff viz., Panchayat Development Officer
and Junior Engineer in Gram Panchayats of the Left Wing Extremism (LWE)
affected Districts.
 Construction of playgrounds under MGNREGA in IAP districts have been
notified as a permissible activity under MGNREGA.
(xi) Rural Roads: Amendment in para 6.1.1(viii) of MGNREGA Guidelines
has been made to allow use of stone kharanja or brick kharanja for internal
roads and cement concrete road where stone / brick kharanja is not available.
(xii) Revision of Guidelines: A committee has been constituted under the
Chairmanship of Dr. Mihir Shah, Member, Planning Commission for revision
of the existing MGNREGA Guidelines.
23
(xiii) Electronic Fund Management System (eFMS): Ministry has developed
a solution (e-FMS) that leverages NEFT/ RTGS/ ECS platforms for crediting
the accounts of workers expeditiously. This helps reduce delays in payments.
Based on this principle of Centralized fund & de-centralized utility, the e-FMS
ensures timely availability of funds at all levels and transparent usage of
MGNREGS funds. This improves efficiency of the program on the whole and
also has a positive effect on timely payment of wages. In e-FMS, transfer of
data files to banks takes place electronically and therefore banks are not
required to feed in details of bank accounts of workers. This seamless way of
data transfer in e-FMS reduces the time taken in crediting accounts of workers.
The e-FMS has been fully integrated with NREGA Soft.
6.
Enlarging scope of works and sustainable development through
Mahatma Gandhi NREGA:
i)
Schedule I, paragraph 1, sub para (iv) of National Rural Employment
Guarantee Act 2005, has been amended as per MoRD Notification dated
22nd July, 2009, to provide for “irrigation facility, horticulture plantation
and land development facilities to land owned by households belonging to
the Schedule Castes and Schedule Tribes or below poverty line families or
to beneficiaries of land reforms or to the beneficiaries under the Indira
Awas Yojana of Government of India or that of the small farmers or
marginal farmers as defined in the Agriculture Debt Waiver and Debt
Relief Scheme, 2008.”
With improved productivity on lands of small and marginal farmers, more
employment will be generated on farmers‟ fields as farmers‟ capacities are
increased through use of modern technologies and agronomic practices.
This is a step in the direction of moving from unskilled manual labour to
skilled farming practices. The ultimate potential of MGNREGA lies in a
renewed focus on improving the productivity of agriculture and
convergence to engender allied sustainable livelihoods. With the inclusion
of small and marginal farmers, MGNREGA has the potential to help
rebuild the stagnated or reduced productivity of land, increase output, spur
further sustainable investment and allow these farmers to return to full
time farming. The current initiative under MGNREGA would carry
this momentum forward in a positive upward spiral, which will broadbase the growth process via downstream multiplier-accelerator effects.
ii) On the recommendation of a Committee under MGNREGA (Chairman: Dr.
Mihir Shah, Member, Planning Commission), Ministry of Rural
24
Development has amended Schedule I (Para 2) of MGNREG Act 2005
and allowed, vide Gazette Notification dated 04.05.2012, several innovative
works pertaining to Agriculture, Livestock, Fisheries, Rural Sanitation, Rural
Drinking Water etc. These works have potential in ensuring a perceptible
impact on the quality and durability of assets created under this wage
employment programme.
iii)
Under Schedule I, para 1, sub para (iv) of National Rural Employment
Guarantee Act 2005, the following has been notified: “Construction of Bharat
Nirman Rajiv Gandhi Sewa Kendra as Village Knowledge Resource Centre
and Gram Panchayat Bhawan at gram panchayat level”
iv) New Work has been included in the schemes of MGNREGA i.e construction of
playgrounds in districts as identified by the Central Government for
implementation of Integrated Action Plan.
v)
A new work “Contruction of Anganwadi Centres” has been added to the list of
permissible works vide Gazette notification dated 21.11.2012.
RURAL HOUSING (INDIRA AWAAS YOJANA)
7. Housing is one of the basic requirements for human survival. For a normal
citizen, owing a house provides significant economic security and dignity in
society. For a shelter less person, possession of a house brings about a
profound social change in existence, endowing the person with an identity and
integration with immediate social milieu. The Indira Awaas Yojana (IAY) is a
flagship scheme of the Ministry of Rural Development to provide houses to the
poor in rural areas.
New Initatives
8. The Cabinet has approved the following with effect from 01.04.2013.
i) enhancement of unit assistance, from Rs. 45,000/- to Rs. 70,000 in plain
areas and from Rs. 48,500 to Rs.75,000 in hilly and difficult areas including
identified left Wing Extremism affected districts.
ii) provision of additional Rs. 9,000/- per toilet for IAY house from Nirmal
Bharat Abhiyan of Ministry of Drinking Water & Sanitation.
iii) provision of 4% of funds for administrative expenses.
25
iv) enhancement of unit assistance provided to rural Below Poverty (BPL)
households who have neither agricultural land nor a house site for
purchase/acquisition of homestead site of an area of 100-250 sq.mtr. from
Rs. 10,000 to Rs. 20,000/- in the ratio of 50:50 (Centre and State).
AWAASSoft
9.
The Ministry has launched a website MIS, Awassoft in July, 2010 to
capture complete and comprehensive data in respect of implementation of IAY
to enable effective and timely monitoring. The states are using the MIS and
updation of data has been linked with the release of funds in order to
systematize data updation. The same will take effect from 01.04.2013.
Setting up a Knowledge Network on Rural Housing
10.
A Knowledge Network has been estimated for preparing an updatable
repository of knowledge in the rural housing sector in collaboration with IIT,
Delhi as envisaged in the Vision plan of Rural Housing Division. The
objectives of the Knowledge Network include compilation of a comprehensive
nation-wide directory of practioners, institutions and practices for RH,
developing a web-based multi-lingual portal showcasing best practices and case
studies of RH from various states in terms of technologies used, materials
employed, sustainability and cost effectiveness, organizing Learning exchanges
and Workshops for skill upgradation, training of the stake holders. The portal is
now operational and can be accessed at www.ruralhousing network.com.
AAJEEVIKA- NATIONAL RURAL LIVELIHOOD MISSION
(NRLM)
11.
The SGSY has been restructured as National Rural Livelihoods
Mission (NRLM) in June 2010, to implement it in a mission mode in a phased
manner for targeted and time bound delivery of results. NRLM has now been
renamed as Aajeevika. The objective of the NRLM is to reduce poverty by
enabling the poor households to access gainful self-employment and skilled
wage employment opportunities resulting in appreciable improvement in
their livelihoods on a sustainable basis, through building strong and
sustainable grassroots institutions of the poor. The main features of the
NRLM are to bring each BPL household under SHG net, setting up of
26
dedicated implementation structure at various levels, enhanced capital subsidy
for the beneficiaries, easy access for multiple doses of credit along with
provision of providing credit to rural BPL from banks at low rate of interest (
introduction of interest subsidy), formation and strengthening of people owned
organization such as SHG Federations at various level and upscale the skill
development and placement programmes .
New initiatives:
12.
Some of the changes in the implementation framework of NRLM
which are under examination are :(i) Setting up a National Level Society under Aajeevika.
(ii) Redefining the target group of the scheme.
(iii) Providing subsidy in the form of seed capital to institutions of the poor.
(iv) Additional interest subvention to women SHGs for prompt payment of loan.
Livelihoods:
(i) Mahila Kisan Sashaktikaran Pariyojana (MKSP)
13.
Mahila Kisan Sashktikaran Pariyojana (MKSP) was launched by
Government of India in 2010-11 as a sub component in Aajeevika–National
Rural Livelihoods Mission, in order to improve the present status of women in
agriculture and enhance the opportunities for empowerment. MKSP was
initiated for livelihood enhancement and vulnerability reduction interventions
across the country. MKSP is implemented as a sub component of Aajeevika
through specially formulated projects.
14.
The primary objective of MKSP is to empower women in agriculture
by making systematic investments to enhance their participation and
productivity in agriculture based livelihoods.
15.
New livelihood vertical based on Non Timber Forest Produce (NTFP)
has also been included under MKSP. The guidelines for both sustainable
agriculture and NTFP streams are available on the site of this Ministry at
www.rural.nic.in and www.aajeevika.gov.in. The Ministry has sanctioned 37
projects under MKSP so far. Currently, the appraisal process for the projects
received during 2012-13 is underway.
27
(ii)
Placement linked skill development under NRLM
16.
Under NRLM, 20% of the total allocation is for special projects to try
out new and innovative initiatives which are in the nature of pioneer projects,
capable of triggering much needed growth impulses and thereby indicators of
possible alternative strategies.
17.
Placement linked skill development projects are being implementing
through PPP model. The Ministry provides financial support to the
Implementing Agency (IA) by way of grants to the extent of 75% of the total
cost of the project. Remaining 25% is borne by the IA or the concerned State
Government. The PIA has to arrange for requisite infrastructure, machinery and
equipment on its own or from the perspective employers to the extent possible
on lease/rent or as contribution/participation of employer/PIA.
18.
As part of strategy to place special emphasis on remote and difficult
areas while sanctioning new placement linked skill development projects,
Ministry of Rural Development has identified IAP/LWE districts, Jammu and
Kashmir and north-eastern areas as priority areas.
(iii)
Rural Self Employment Training Institute
19.
The Government of India decided to set up Rural Self Employment
Training Institute, one in each district of the country for basic and skill
development training of the rural BPL youth to enable them to undertake micro
enterprises and wage employment. These will be bank led institutions i.e. will
be managed and run by the Public Sector/Private Sector Banks with active cooperation from the State Governments. 500 RSETIs were proposed to be set up
in the country in the 11th Five year Plan. RSETIs core offering includes its free,
unique and intensive short-term residential self-employment training programs
with free food and accommodation, designed specifically for rural youth.
20.
Ministry of Rural Development will bear the one time expenditure, up
to a maximum of Rs.1.00crore per institution, on infrastructure development of
these Rural Self Employment Training Institutes and through the DRDAs will
also provide support towards cost of training for rural BPL candidates to the
sponsor Banks. State Governments will provide land, free of cost, to these
institutions on priority basis. It would be the responsibility of the banks to
manage day to day functioning of the institute.
21.
In order to ensure the same quality of training as provided in the
28
RUDSET, the original promoters of RSETI concept, an MOU was signed with
the National Academy of RUDSETI on 29th July, 2011.
(iv)
Marketing
22.
Marketing of products made by Self Help Groups of SGSY is also a
major area of concerns under the program. To facilitate marketing of the
products produced by SGSY swarozgaris, requisite provisions have been made
in the guidelines of the scheme. SGSY emphasizes on backward and forward
linkages of the activities to be tied up appropriately so as to ensure that the
products manufactured by swarozgaris are able to compete in the market and
they derive adequate income to cross the poverty line. Necessary support may
be taken from Government and private agencies in order to provide the
backward and forward linkages to the groups/individual swarozgaris of SGSY.
23.
The various initiatives of the Ministry to promote marketing of rural
products are as under:
a) Organize SARAS Fairs: Ministry of Rural Development supports the
State Governments for organizing one Regional Saras fair in metros and
major cities of the state by sanctioning amount upto Rs.25 lakhs for metro
cities and Rs.20 lakhs to other cities. At present Regional/State SARAS
fairs are organised throughout the country where SHGs from different
states participate and sell their products.
b) Creation of Marketing Centres at Delhi: Permanent marketing centres
provide a platform to the rural artisans to sell their products throughout
the year.
Ministry of Rural Development has taken a Gallery at Rajiv Gandhi Crafts
Bhavan, Baba Kharak Singh Marg in February, 2007, on rent for display
and sale of products of SHGs. The management of the Gallery has been
entrusted to Consortium of Women Entrepreneurs of India (CWEI) to run
the Gallery in a professional way.
c) Creation of Marketing Centres in States: In order to promote
marketing of products at state, district and village level in the states, a
scheme was introduced during 2008-09 for setting up of Haats, which
provides funds upto Rs.15 lakhs for creation of Village Haats, upto Rs.1.5
crores for a district level Haat and upto Rs.3.00 crores for a Haat at the
State capital.
29
PRADHAN MANTRI GRAM SADAK YOJANA (PMGSY)
24.
Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) was launched on 25 th
December 2000 as a fully funded Centrally Sponsored Scheme to provide all
weather road connectivity in rural areas of the country. The programme
envisages connecting all habitations with a population of 500 persons and above
in the plain areas and 250 persons and above in the hill States, the Tribal
(Schedule V) areas and the Desert (as identified in the Desert Development
Programme) Areas. Recently, programme guidelines have been amended to
include the habitations having population of 250 persons and above in Left
Wing Extremism affected districts, as identified by the Ministry of Home
Affairs, for coverage under PMGSY.
25.
Measures taken to ensure Quality and Transparency under PMGSY
are as under:
Three tier quality control mechanism
26.
For ensuring high level of quality in works, PMGSY programme
guidelines have the provision for three tier Quality Control Mechanism as
under:
i) The first tier of quality control mechanism is in-house quality
control at the level of executing agencies. The field laboratories
are established by the Contractors and mandatory tests on the quality of
material and workmanship are conducted under the supervision of
Programme Implementation Units (PIUs). Quality Control Handbooks
have been prescribed and test records are maintained by the PIUs in the
prescribed Quality Control registers.
ii) The second tier provides for quality monitoring by the State
Governments through independent State Quality Monitors (SQMs).
SQMs are deployed to ensure that quality issues are properly being
attended to at the first tier.
iii) The third tier of this arrangement consists of quality monitoring of
works through random inspections by independent National Quality
Monitors (NQMs). Observations of National Quality Monitors are
handed over to the PIUs immediately after inspection for taking
appropriate action. The Action Taken Reports (ATRs) are prepared and
sent to the NRRDA (National Rural Road Development Agency)
through State Quality Coordinator. If defects in the work are rectified
30
and the action of rectification is verified by independent quality
monitors in the subsequent inspections, the „Unsatisfactory‟ grading of
the work is improved to „Satisfactory‟ grading. NRRDA monitors the
submission of ATRs and States are appraised of the status of ATRs. All
NQM reports and ATRs are available in Citizen‟s domain at the official
website (OMMAS) for perusal.
Standard Bidding Document
27.
A Standard Bidding Document (SBD) has been prescribed to facilitate
open tender and award of works under PMGSY. Works are awarded through
open tender and as per the criteria given in the SBD. Evaluation and acceptance
criteria have been incorporated in the bid document in order to have greater
transparency in award of works.
On-line monitoring
28.
A Web-based on-line monitoring system (web address –
www.omms.nic.in and www.pmgsyonline.nic.in) has been developed to
facilitate timely monitoring of works under PMGSY. Monitoring modules
include Connectivity Status, Procurement Status, Physical and Financial
progress, Accounts and Quality monitoring etc. The entire database has been
placed in the Citizens‟ domain.
Citizen information boards
29.
Citizen information boards are displayed in local language at
prominent locations in the benefited habitations indicating the volume of
materials used in each layer of the pavement and dates of
commencement/closure/maintenance period of the road concern.
Inspection of PMGSY works by public representatives
30.
State Governments have been advised to arrange joint inspection of
ongoing as well as completed works under PMGSY by Hon‟ble MPs, Hon‟ble
MLAs and functionaries of Panchayati Raj Institutions.
Maintenance mechanism
31.
Rural roads taekn up under PMGSY are covered by five year
maintenance contract, to be entered into along with the construction contract,
with the same contractor, in accordance with the Standard Bidding Document
31
(SBD). State Government are to make suitable arrangement/mechanism for the
regular maintenance and upkeep of the projects completed under PMGSY for
five-year period in combination as well as beyond it for the rural roads
constructed under PMGSY. An adequate provision of funds and also proper
institutional arrangements at both the state and PIU level are required. Release
of funds under PMGSY has been linked with the crediting of required
maintenance fund by the State Government in concerned account of SRRDA
for maintenance of assets created under PMGSY.
New Technological Initiatives:32.
The Rural Road Programme has established several new standards in
its endeavour to construct roads of high quality. The new initiatives taken as
part of the PMGSY programme include the following:(i)
Implementation of concept of Core Network: The concept
of Core Network has been operationalised in order to focus on
the set of roads which are considered essential to provide
connectivity to all habitations of the desired size. (Action has
been initiated on a pilot basis to develop GIS-based applications
to further enhance the utility of the Core Network).
(ii)
Use of new technology and materials: R&D efforts like use
of cement concrete, modified bitumen, fly ash as well as soil
stabilization techniques and other new methodologies modified to
suit rural roads are some of the thrust areas of the Programme.
(iii) Outsourcing of technical inputs:
In order to manage the
programme at the national level and yet ensure that adequate
technical inputs are locally available for planning and execution
of the rural roads programme, an elaborate structure consisting of
Principal Technical Agencies (national level technical
institutions) as well as State Technical Agencies (regional level
technical institutions) has been successfully brought into the
framework of the programme planning and execution through a
Government – academia partnership.
(iv) e-Procurement: Keeping in view the comparative advantage of
e-tendering, the Ministry of Rural Development has decided
32
that w.e.f. April 1, 2009, all PMGSY works shall be procured
through e-Tendering and all States are stipulated to work
accordingly.
(v)
Mobile Application based Quality inspection: Following are
the salient features of the proposed application:
(a) Capturing the alpha-numeric data and photographs from the
field using mobile smart phones.
(b) Every entry is tagged with geo-code and time stamp.
(c) Inspection details to be integrated with OMMA and
photographs.
33.
Following are the benefits of the proposed applications:
(a) Automated process of data capture and inspection
(b) Data to be captured in field and uploaded in central sever on real-time basis.
(c) No error in copying paper based data to computer.
(d) Geo-referencing further validates the time and place of the quality
inspection.
(e) No manual error for correlating the picture to inspection site.

CHAPTER – IV
PAST PERFORMANCE OF
PROGRAMMES / SCHEMES
THE
INDIVIDUAL
Aajeevika-National Rural Livelihoods Mission (NRLM)
The Ministry of Rural Development has restructured the Swarnjayanti
Gram Swarozgar Yojana (SGSY) as National Rural Livelihoods Mission
(NRLM) to implement it in a mission mode in a phased manner for targeted and
time bound delivery of results. NRLM has now been renamed as Aajeevika.
Objective:
2.
To reduce poverty by enabling the poor households to access gainful selfemployment and skilled wage employment opportunities resulting in
appreciable improvement in their livelihoods on a sustainable basis, through
building strong and sustainable grassroots institutions of the poor.
Salient Features:
3.
The salient features of Aajeevika-NRLM are as under:
(i)
Universal Social Mobilization:, Under Aajeevika at least one member
from each identified rural poor household, preferably a woman, is brought
under the Self Help Group (SHG) network in a time bound manner. Aajeevika
would ensure adequate coverage of vulnerable sections of the society so that
50% of the beneficiaries are SC/STs, 50% are women, 15% are minorities and
3% are persons with disability, while keeping in view the ultimate target of
100% coverage of BPL families.
(ii) With a view to form strong Institutions of the poor, the programme will
focus on setting up of federations of SHGs from village panchayat, block &
district levels. These federations will not only provide voice and strength to its
members, but will also provide handholding support to SHGs on a continuous
basis
(iii) Training, Capacity building and skill building: The poor will be
provided requisite skills for managing their institutions, linking up
34
with markets, managing their existing livelihoods, enhancing their credit
absorption capacity and credit worthiness, etc. A multi-pronged approach will
be adopted for continuous capacity building of the targeted families, SHGs,
their federations, Government functionaries, bankers, NGOs and other key
stakeholders. Particular focus would be on developing and engaging community
professionals and community resource persons for capacity building of SHGs
and their federations and other collectives.
(iv) Revolving Fund and Capital Subsidy: Subsidy would be available in
the form of revolving fund and capital subsidy. The Revolving Fund would be
provided to the SHGs (where more than 70% members are from BPL
households). The Capital Subsidy fund would be given directly to the SHGs or
would be routed to the SHGs through the federations, wherever the SHGs desire
such an arrangement.
(v) Provision of Interest Subsidy: In order to ensure affordable credit,
Aajeevika has a provision for subsidy on interest rate above 7% per annum for
all eligible SHGs, who have availed loans from mainstream financial
institutions, based on prompt loan repayment (This would not be applicable
when a SHG avails capital subsidy. Interest subsidy would be provided to this
SHG, when they avail a fresh loan after repaying the capital subsidy linked
loan). This subsidy would be available to SHGs, where at least 70% of the
members are from BPL households, till a member accesses credit, through
repeat cumulative loaning, up to Rs 1.00 lakh per household.
(vi) Infrastructure creation and Marketing support: For ensuring the
infrastructure needs for the major livelihoods activities of the poor , 20% of the
state‟s programme outlay (25% in case of North-Eastern States and Sikkim) is
reserved for this purpose. The range of activities in marketing support includes
market research, market intelligence, technology extension, developing
backward and forward linkages, building livelihoods collectives and supporting
their business plans.
(vii) Skills and Placement Projects: The existing skill and Placement
projects would be scaled up through partnership mode as one of the best
investments in youth, and provide impetus to livelihoods
opportunities in emerging markets. A strong relationship would also be
developed with industry associations and sector specific employers‟
associations. 15% of the central allocation under Aajeevika is
earmarked for this purpose.
35
(viii) Rural Self Employment Training Institutes (RSETIs)
The programme encourages public sector banks to set up RSETIs in all
districts of the country. RSETIs transform unemployed rural youth in the
district into confident self-employed entrepreneurs through need-based
experiential learning programme followed by systematic handholding
support. Banks are completely involved in selection, training and post
training follow-up stages. RSETIs partner with others, including the
institutions of the poor, to realize their mandate and agenda.
(ix)
Innovations: The successful innovations can reduce the learning curve
for poverty eradication by showing a different pathway out of poverty.
5% of the Central allocation is therefore, earmarked for innovations.
Those innovations, which have the potential for reaching out specifically
to the poorest or for reaching out to the largest number of poor and
having maximum impact with limited resources, would be preferred and
supported.
(x)
Sensitive Support Structures:
Sensitive and dedicated support
structures will be set up at the National, State, district and sub-district
levels. NRLM Advisory, Coordination and Empowered Committees and
National Mission Management Unit at the national level, State Rural
Livelihoods Missions (SRLMs) as autonomous bodies and State Mission
Management Units at state level, District Mission Management Units at
district level, and sub-district units at block and/or cluster levels would
constitute these support structures. The institutions of the poor, their staff
and other social capital would also provide the support. These structures
would have suitable linkages with Government(s), District Rural
Development Agencies (DRDAs), and PRIs. These support structures
would be staffed with professionally competent and dedicated human
resources through appropriate arrangements including partnerships and
outsourcing of services.
(xi)
Technical Support: The technical assistance will be provided to the
States and all other partners for creating and strengthening their
institutional capacities for its effective implementation. It would build
national knowledge management and learning forum/ systems. It would
facilitate partnerships between institutions of the poor and banking
sectors, public and private sectors, for ensuring last mile service delivery
to reach the poor.
36
(xii) Funding Pattern: It is a Centrally Sponsored Scheme and the
financing of the programme would be shared between the Centre and
the States in the ratio of 75:25 (90:10 in case of North Eastern States
including Sikkim; completely from the Centre in case of UTs). The
Central allocation earmarked for the States would broadly be distributed
in relation to the incidence of poverty in the States.
(xiii) Phased Implementation: Building up social capital takes some time in
the initial years, but it multiplies rapidly after some time. If the social
capital of the poor does not play the lead role in Aajeevika, then it
would not be a people‟s programme. Further, it is important to ensure
that the quality and effectiveness of the interventions is not diluted.
Therefore, a phased implementation approach will be adopted under the
Aajeevika.
(xiv) Monitoring and Learning: NRLM would monitor its results,
processes and activities through web-enabled comprehensive MIS,
regular meetings of the Performance Review Committee, visits by
senior colleagues, Local, District, State and National Monitoring
Groups and the mechanisms of Review and Planning Missions. Process
monitoring studies, thematic studies and impact evaluations would
provide inputs to the above. It would also promote social accountability
practices to introduce greater transparency. This would be in addition
to the mechanisms that would be evolved by SRLMs and state
governments. The learning from one another underpins the key
processes of learning in NRLM.
Progress under NRLM
4.
A National Mission Management Unit (N.M.M.U.) has been set up
in the Rural Livelihoods Division of MoRD with the main mandate of
providing need based and timely technical assistance to states for rolloutand
implementation of Aajeevika in the states. The N.M.M.U. has both full time
and part time professionals for various thematic interventions. The human
resource at NMMU brings in quality domain knowledge with an average
experience of approximately 12 years. NMMU has been able to provide
adequate technical support to states on a continuous basis to establish the
state units (SRLM), provided support in designing and establishing their
internal systems, rules and regulations and in preparing their poverty
reduction action plans and Annual Action Plans. NMMU have also directly
conducted induction and immersion for the newly recruited staff at
state level, in addition to helping the states design their own
37
induction and training strategies for their manpower under N.R.L.M. In
addition, the N.M.M.U. aims at building a national pool of experts,
practitioners and advisers in all the relevant disciplines for providing
handholding support to SRLMs.
5. State level: As per the „Framework of Implementation‟ of Aajeevika all
states are required to put in place certain systems before their Annual Action
Plans can be approved by the Ministry for release of funds under Aajeevika.
This includes setting up the State Rural Livelihoods Mission (SRLM) which
will be a autonomous registered society under the state government,
appointing a dedicated Chief Executive Officer in the SRLM, putting in
place a State Project Management Unit (SPMU), approving the setting up of
dedicated implementation structures at the district and sub-district levels,
etc. The status of roll out of Aajeevika in the States, as on December, 2012,
is given at Annexure-I.
6.
Resource Organisations:
Aajeevika has identified Resource
Organizations, which are State agencies that have successfully implemented
rural livelihoods strategies, to deploy trained and quality Community
Resource Persons (CRP) teams and Professional Resource Persons (PRPs)
and deliver the services relating to training, immersion and handholding to
staff/community and ensure high quality and timely service. Society for
Elimination of Rural Poverty (SERP), Andhra Pradesh, Bihar Rural
Livelihoods Promotion Society (BRLPS), Bihar, Kudumbashree, Kerala,
Tamilnadu Women Development Corporation (TNWDC) and Employment
Generationand Marketing Mission (EGMM), Andhra Pradesh are identified
as Resource Organizations by Aajeevika. The resource organization will
support SRLMs in rolling out Aajeevika in a few selected intensive blocks
in the state and to identify internal CRPs and train them to work
independently in the new blocks. They will also support the states in
implementing some of the best practices from the resource states in the other
states. The performance and outcomes of the intensive blocks are monitored
jointly by NMMU and SRLM. NMMU provides technical assistance to
SRLMs to convert the learning from intensive blocks to new blocks.
7.
Community Resource Persons: Community Resource Persons
(CRPs) are women SHG members who come out of poverty by being
members of the SHGs and practised the cardinal principles of Self-Help.
They act as guides and role models for other poor individuals and other
institutions. They provide capacity building support to newer groups and
38
act as consultants to each other to successfully implement their plans to
come out of poverty. CRPs over the years have evolved as functional
specialists with each one having their own strengths in specific areas like
social mobilization, gender, financial management, book keeping,
marketing, health, gender, paralegal assistants and so on.
8.
Aajeevika Website: Aajeevika‟s bilingual website and logo were
launched by Honorable Minister of Rural Development during first NRLM
Advisory Committee meeting, this year. The website serves as a knowledge
hub for NRLM stakeholders, where guidelines and policy documents, AAP,
SPIP, sanctions and communication are posted on a regular basis.

Progress under RSETI
15. As on 30th September, 2012, 535 RSETIs are functioning across the
country. State-wise position of RSETIs functioning in the country is at
Annexure VIII. In order to ensure the same quality of training as provided in
the RUDSET, the original promoters of RSETI concept, an MOU was signed
with the National Academy of RUDSETI on 29th July, 2011.As a follow up of
the MOU following activities have been undertaken:
(a)
(b)
(c)
(d)
21 Training programs conducted for Directors of RSETIs and State
Level Coordinators including three state level workshops of Maharashtra,
West Bengal and Bihar.
20 Bank conclaves held including common conclave for those banks
sponsoring less than 10 RSETIs and conclave of state bank associate
bank. The first round of Bank conclaves has been completed. Second
round has been initiated now.
13 State Level Project Coordinators appointed, trained and placed in
State capital.
Completed grading of 509 RSETIs. Based on the final grading, 109
RSETIs, their sponsoring bank and the concerned State administration
were recognised as well performing agencies.
40
(e)
(f)
(g)
RSETI administrative manual has been completed and launched in the
national meet held on 28th July, 2012.
A major bottleneck impeding the growth of the movement was
reimbursement of training cost of BPL candidates. Circular streamlining
reimbursement of training cost of BPL candidates was issued on
21.5.2012.
The first version of the web enabled MIS of RSETI has been developed
and is under field trial.
16. Based on the grading of RSETIs done in July, 2012, around half of the
RSETIs were found to be performing at sub-optimal levels. The banks have
been asked to chalk out a time bound program of bringing all the RSETIs to the
level of B in the next 12 months. In the further 12 months, minimum 75% of
these RSETIs should have achieved the level of excellence i.e. A or above.
State-wise/RSETI wise targets have been set for all institutes graded B and
above. In respect of other RSETIs, it has been decided to concentrate on
building the systems first before allocating targets to them.
17. Training target under RSETI scheme for the financial year 2012-13 for
Self Employment is 2 lakh persons. Against this, the achievement up to 30 th
September, 2012 stood at 1.37 lakhs persons.
Marketing
18. Organize SARAS Fairs: During 2011-12, Ministry organised 22 Regional
SARAS fairs throughout the country in which a remarkable number of artisans
participated and products worth crores were sold.
19. Creation of Marketing Centres at Delhi: Permanent marketing centres
provide a platform to the rural artisans to sell their products throughout the
year. Ministry of Rural Development has taken a Gallery at Rajiv Gandhi
Crafts Bhavan, Baba Kharak Singh Marg in February, 2007, on rent for display
and sale of products of SHGs. The management of the Gallery has been
entrusted to Consortium of Women Entrepreneurs of India (CWEI) to run the
Gallery in a professional way. The agency has sold products, procured from
SHGs covered under SGSY, worth more than 30.10 lakhs between April, 2012
to 30th September, 2012.
20. 44 stalls of Dilli Haat, Pitampura were taken on long term lease by the
Ministry of Rural Development during 2008, where rural artisans from all
41
States are invited to participate. These stalls became operational on April 13,
2008 and since then about 2103 artisans have showcased their products and
sold products worth more than Rs.3.87 crores at the Haat.
21.
Creation of Marketing Centres in States: In order to promote
marketing of products at state, district and village level in the states, a scheme
was introduced during 2008-09 for setting up of Haats, which provides funds
upto Rs.15 lakhs for creation of Village Haats, upto Rs.1.5 crores for a district

MAHATMA
GANDHI
NATIONAL
EMPLOYMENT GUARANTEE ACT
(Mahatma Gandhi NREGA)
RURAL
Objective
Mahatma Gandhi NREGA was notified on 7th September, 2005 to
provide a legal Guarantee of 100 days of wage employment in a financial year
to every rural household whose adult members volunteer to do unskilled
manual work.
Coverage
2.
The National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (Mahatma Gandhi
NREGA) was implemented w.e.f. 2nd February 2006 in 200 most backward
districts to begin with. Additional 130 districts were brought under Mahatma
Gandhi NREGA during 2007-08. The remaining districts were brought under
Mahatma Gandhi NREGA vide notification dated 28th September, 2007. From
1st April, 2008 all rural districts of the country were covered under
MGNREGA. Thus, the statutory commitment of the Government to cover all
districts of the country with rural areas under Mahatma Gandhi NREGA
within five years of its notification has been fulfilled.
Mahatma Gandhi NREGA: Paradigm shift:
3.
This is the first time that a Law guaranteeing employment on such a
large scale has been enacted. Mahatma Gandhi NREGA marks a major
paradigm shift from the earlier wage employment programmes. The
significant difference between Mahatma Gandhi NREGA and the earlier
wage employment programmes is that Mahatma Gandhi NREGA creates a
rights based framework for wage employment making the Government
legally accountable for providing employment to those who ask for it.
Mahatma Gandhi NREGA is premised on demand for employment unlike
the earlier wage employment programmes which were supply led. The
instrument of employment generation is unskilled manual labour works
relating
to
water
conservation,
drought proofing (including
afforestation/tree plantation), and rural connectivity in terms of all-weather
roads. Mahatma Gandhi NREGA also has elaborate transparency
52
safeguard measures through a number of documents and processes such as
job cards, work applications, dated receipts, numbered muster rolls, timely
payment, social audit and grievance redressal.
Implementation Responsibilities:
4.
The Act makes the State Government guarantor of the employment
demanded. The Act is implemented primarily at the village level where all
basic processes like the application for employment, selection and opening of
works, takes place through the agency of the Gram Panchayat. Section 13 of
the Act makes the Panchayats, at the district, intermediate and village level,
the principal authorities for planning and implementation. The coordination
of the implementation of the Act at the district level is done by the District
Programme Coordinator (DPC).
5.
The role of the Central Government as envisaged under the Act is to
provide financial assistance, monitoring and evaluation, to promote
dissemination of information and preparation of the annual report to be laid on
the Table of both houses of the Parliament.
Action taken by the Ministry in strengthening the implementation
of Mahatma Gandhi NREGA.
6.
Mahatma Gandhi NREGA is implemented by the States in accordance
with the State Employment Guarantee Schemes formulated by various States
as per the provisions of the Act. The Ministry has, however, undertaken
intensive monitoring and review of the implementation of the Act and has
supplemented States‟ efforts for capacity building of the implementing
authorities.
IEC Initiatives for awareness generation
7.
Various initiatives for IEC activities undertaken by State Governments
for generating awareness about the Act are as under:



One day orientation of Sarpanches at the Block level
Gram Sabhas
Use of local vernacular newspapers, radio, TV, films & Local cultural
forums
Leaflets, brochures in simple local language with more of Graphics

53




Fixing one day as Rozgar Diwas in a fortnight.
Village Camps by District teams
NGOs/SHGs participation in awareness generation
Preparation of primers for workforce and sarpanches
8.
Awareness generation about Mahatma Gandhi NREGA is a continuous
process. Government of India has introduced awards known as Rozgar
Jagrookta Puraskar to recognize the outstanding contributions by the Civil
Society Organizations (CSOs) for promoting effective implementation of
Mahatma Gandhi NREGA in different States of the Country. In the Mahatma
Gandhi NREGA Sammelan held on 2.2.2012, one such NGO (BAIF Institute
of Rural Development, Dharward, Karnataka) has been awarded Rozgar
Jagrookta Puraskar for their outstanding contributions in the field of
awareness generation.
Improving Planning of Works
9.
As the instruments for employment generation is opening of works,
there has been a major emphasis on preparation of shelf of projects at the
village level in advance for the next financial year. Feedback from field has
indicated a negative effect on employment generation wherever there is
inadequate list of works. The following measures have been insisted upon by
the Ministry:
i) Planning process is to be strengthened by:







ii)
Preparation of shelf of projects in each village with technical and
administrative approvals.
Maintenance of an Asset register
Precise location identity for each worksite
Indication of Outcomes expected from the works
Estimated benefits in terms of person days
Physical improvement envisaged (land/water conservation etc)
Pre-Mid-Post Project condition to be recorded
The Ministry has also developed manuals on afforestation,
Watershed and Natural Resource Management to be used/ adopted by
States for improving the quality of planning
Transparency in Wage Payment
10.
With a view to ensure transparency in payment of wages to the
54
Mahatma Gandhi NREGA workers, amendments have been made in para
31 of schedule II of the Act vide Notification dated 19.2.2009 for making the
wage payment through savings account of workers in Post Offices/Banks. The
Ministry is maintaining strict vigilance on wage payment through Monthly
Progress Reports (MPRs) and review meetings with State Secretaries.
MIS
11. Web enabled Management Information System permits citizens to
access the muster rolls (document of attendance of workers and payment of
wages) and data on all critical parameters on the MGNREGA website
www.nrega.nic.in. So far, 10 crore Muster Rolls and 12.5 crore Job cards have
been uploaded.
Capacity Building
12. The most critical issue is the capacity of the implementing agencies to
implement the statue with the rigour prescribed by the Guidelines. The range
of issues under capacity building includes strengthening the staffing support
and their training.
Strengthening Staffing
i)
At the District and sub district level
13. a) Staff to be deployed: Since Mahatma Gandhi NREGA has statutory
mandates and time limits to be followed; the Ministry has advised States to
use the permissible administrative limit of expenses borne on the Central
share for recruitment of personnel. The staff to be recruited on priority for
dedicated attention to Mahatma Gandhi NREGA implementation is as
follows:
•
Gram Panchayat
- One administrative assistant per GP: Gram Rozgar Sahayak
- One technical assistant per 5 GPs
•
Block
- A full time Programme Officer not less than the rank of a Block
Development Officer (BDO)
- Additional staff for accounts, works, IT, Social Audit and Grievance
redressal
55
•
District additional staff for accounts, works, IT, Grievance redressal,
Social Audit, training
•
States are to set up Technical Cell at State Headquarter comprising
experts on accounts, Social Audit, Grievance redressal, training, IEC,
monitoring, works and IT.
Staff deployed: To deploy dedicated staff at grass- root level for
implementation of MGNREGA, the states are permitted to utilize resources
allocated under administrative expenses.
b) Non-recurring expenditure: Onetime expenses under Mahatma Gandhi
NREGA such as (i) preparation of Perspective Plan; (ii) printing of job cards
& photography; (iii) augmentation of computational facilities at the Block and
district level and (iv) almirahs for record keeping and functional furniture at
GP, Block and district levels are also met out of the administrative expenses
under the Act. The enhanced ceiling of 6% would enable the States to equip
the various implementing authorities with the necessary materials as per their
requirements.
Training
14.
Trainings by the States: The primary responsibility for training rests
with the State Governments. States have been conducting regular training
programmes for both State functionaries as well as Panchayati Raj Institutes
(PRIs) with the help of State Institute of Rural Development (SIRDs) and
other agencies.
Monitoring and Review
15.
Monitoring: The Ministry has set-up a comprehensive system for
monitoring of the programme. This includes the following:
(i)
External Monitoring:
a) National Level Monitors (NLMs) are deputed by the Ministry to various
districts and their reports are shared with the State Governments for necessary
action.
56
b) Appraisal by Institutions: Premier academic institutions like Indian
Institute of Technology (IIT), Indian Institute of Management (IIM) etc.
have been invited to conduct specific studies on Mahatma Gandhi NREGA.
Seven such institutions have been asked to undertake research appraisal
studies on Mahatma Gandhi NREGA.
(ii) Internal monitoring: Officers of the Ministry have been nominated as
Area Officers for specific States and these Area Officers conduct regular field
visits to their States.
(iii)
Focus areas for monitoring
a) Muster Rolls aiming at a



Campaign for 100% Verification of muster rolls by State Governments
Random sample verification of muster rolls by external agencies
making muster rolls available on the Mahatma Gandhi NREGA website
b) Works


Putting up a Citizen Information Board on each work site with the
details of works taken up
Quality of works
c) Records

Verification and cross checking of key records: job cards, muster rolls
and measurement books
d) Wage Payment:

Timely payment and quantum of wage payment.
(iv) Review of the implementation of the programme:
a) National level Reviews: Implementation of Mahatma Gandhi NREGA
is regularly reviewed at the level of Minister (Rural Development) and
Secretary (Rural Development) from time to time in review meetings held
either on a monthly or quarterly basis.
57
b) State level Reviews: For States under special focus, State specific reviews
are held at State head quarters.
c) Regional Review: Regional level workshops are organized on
implementation of MGNREGA with a view to bring together Central/ State /
District level Stakeholders to discuss and finalise the mechanism for
resolution of implementation issues and challenges. Besides arriving at
possible solution of implementation issues and challenges, these workshops
helps in dissemination of innovative measures/ practices adopted by State/
District for effective implementation of MGNREGA.

PRADHAN MANTRI GRAM SADAK YOJANA
Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) was launched on 25 th
December 2000 as a fully funded Centrally Sponsored Scheme to provide all
weather road connectivity to all eligible unconnected habitations in rural
areas of the country. The programme envisages connecting all habitations
with a population of 500 persons and above in the plain areas and 250
persons and above in the hill States, the Tribal (Schedule V) areas and the
Desert (as identified in the Desert Development Programme) Areas.
Recently, programme guidelines have been amended with the approval of
Empowered Group of Officers chaired by Member Secretary, Planning
Commission to include all eligible unconnected habitations whether in
Schedule V area or not having population of 250 persons and above in Left
Wing Extremism affected/82 Integrated Action Plan districts, as identified
by the Ministry of Home Affairs and Planning Commission, for coverage
under PMGSY. Following relaxations in the PMGSY Guidelines for IAP
district have also been made:(i)
All habitations in Integrated Action Plan (IAP) districts, whether in
schedule-V areas or not, with a population of 250 and above (in 2001
census) will be eligible for coverage under PMGSY as against the
population of 500 in other areas.
(ii)
In Integrated Action Plan (IAP) districts, cost of bridges upto 75
metres under PMGSY will be borne by the Government of India as
against 50 metres for other areas.
(iii)
In case of LWE/IAP districts, the minimum tender package amount is
reduced to 50 lakhs.
(iv)
The time limit upto 24 calendar months would be allowed for
completion of
work. However, no extra liability, if any, on
account of cost escalation shall be met from the programme fund
provided by the Ministry of Rural
Development, Government of
India.
(v)
While formulating estimates and preparing DPRs, cost of insurance
premium against risks such as damaging or burning of plants and
machinery etc. of contractors can also be included.
(vi)
The difference in cost between CC road and bituminous road would
75
be shared by Centre and States concerned in the ratio of 90:10 instead
of 50:50 in the case of other States. Proposals of such CC roads up to
20% of the total newly proposed roads in the highly affected blocks
can be accepted as against 10% in respect of other States.
(vii) General approval under Section 2 of Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980
for diversion of forest land up to 5 ha for selected public infrastructure
projects in IAP districts has been given and orders have been issued.
2.
According to the figures made available by the State Governments
under a survey to identify Core Network as part of the PMGSY programme
and after revision of the core Network, 1,64,849 habitations were eligible for
coverage under the programme These habitations were targeted for
providing road connectivity under PMGSY. The programme also has an
„Upgradation‟ component with a target to upgrade 3.75 lakh km. of existing
rural roads (including 40% renewal of rural roads to be funded by the States)
in order to ensure full farm to market connectivity.

DRDA ADMINISTRATION
Over the years the DRDA has traditionally been a principal organ at
the District level to oversee the implementation of different anti-poverty
programmes of the Ministry of Rural Development. Since inception, the
administrative cost of the DRDAs were met by way of setting apart a certain
percentage of the allocation for each programme.
Keeping in view the need for an effective agency at the District level to coordinate the anti-poverty programmes, a new Centrally Sponsored Scheme
for strengthening the DRDAs was introduced w.e.f 1st April, 1999.
Objectives
2.
The primary objective of the Scheme of DRDA Administration is to
professionalise the DRDAs so that they are able to effectively manage the
anti-poverty programmes of the Ministry of Rural Development and interact
effectively with other agencies.
Target
3.
The DRDA Administration, being a Staff scheme, no physical targets
are set under the same.
Release of Funds
4.
The Central Assistance under the Scheme is released directly to the
DRDAs/Zilla Parishads, in two Instalments as per the Guidelines of the
programme; 10% of the total entitlement of the DRDAs in a State is
earmarked for the State Headquarters.
Funding pattern
5.
The funds under this programme is shared between the Centre and the
States in the ratio of 75:25 and from the financial year 2007-08, in the case
of NE States, the ratio is 90:10. Funds are released in two instalments
directly to the DRDAs, in advance with the guidelines under this
programme.
Salient features of DRDA Administration

The DRDA is visualised as a specialised agency for managing the
83








anti-poverty programmes of the Ministry on the one hand and to
effectively relate these to the overall efforts of poverty eradication in
the District.
DRDAs would develop the capacity to build synergies among different
agencies involved for the most effective results. The role of the DRDA
is therefore distinct from all the other agencies.
The DRDAs would deal only with the anti-poverty programmes of the
Ministry of Rural Areas & Employment.. If DRDAs are to be entrusted
with programmes of other ministries or those of the State Governments,
it would be ensured that these have a definite anti-poverty focus.
The principle to be followed will be to ensure that actual execution of
programmes will be handled outside the DRDAs and that DRDA`s role
will be to facilitate the implementation of the programmes, to
supervise/oversee and monitor the progress, to receive and send the
progress reports as well as to account for the funds.
In respect of such States where DRDA does not have a separate
identity, a separate cell will be created in the Zilla Parishad which
maintains a separate identity and separate accounts, so that the accounts
are capable of being audited separately.
DRDAs would be a lean organization. While the details of the staffing
would vary from State to State, a minimum uniformity in the staffing
structure has been indicated.
The staffing structure of DRDAs will include position for planning for
poverty alleviation, project formulation, social organisation and
capacity building. Gender concerns, Engineering supervision and
Quality control, project monitoring, Accountancy and Audit functions
as well as Evaluation and Impact studies.
Each DRDA would be headed by a Project Director, who shall be of
the rank of an Additional District Magistrate.
The ceiling on administrative cost per district has been fixed as on
1.4.1999 as follows;
Category A districts (<6 blocks)
Category B districts (6-10 blocks)
Category C districts (11-15 blocks)
Category D districts (>15 blocks)

Rs. 46 lakhs
Rs. 57 lakhs
Rs. 65 lakhs
Rs. 67 lakhs
This ceiling may be raised every year, on a compounding basis, upto
5% to set off the increases due to inflation etc.
84






While the States follow their own salary structure, the ceiling indicated
above would be strictly adhered to. Any increase over and above the
ceiling shall be met entirely by the State Government.
State Governments are allowed a sum upto 10% of the above costs, to
be calculated at 10% of the total admissible cost to all the districts in
the State.
The DRDA shall not have any permanent staff. To start with, DRDAs
are no longer allowed to make any direct recruitment. The State Rural
Development Departments have been asked to immediately draw up a
3-5 year plan for absorption of the staff, that is currently borne on the
DRDAs, into the line departments.
The Project Directors, Project Officers, APOs and all technical
personnel are to be selected in an objective manner by specific
Selection Committees. In the selection of Project Directors and APOs,
emphasis should be on selecting officers of young age. Indicatively, the
PDs and APO should not be more than 40-45 years of age, and in any
case not more than 50 years of age.
The Project Directors, APOs and other technical staff must have a
minimum tenure of 2-3 years.
In order to make the DRDA a professional body, the officials and staff
of DRDAs should be constantly trained in the general field of
management of rural areas and poverty. Suitable training programmes
be designed by the Ministry in consultation with professional institute
of the national importance like NIRD, ILM, IRMA,LBSNAA and
ASCI.
System of Monitoring and control over the performance of
scheme
6.
The Central Government has a system of effective monitoring and
evaluation through inspections both by the Central Government as well as
State Government officials and through Audit Reports. Besides, Vigilance
and Monitoring Committees are expected to exercise, Vigilance and
Monitor this programme and also other programmes implemented by this
Ministry. The Governing Body of the DRDA also review and monitor the
implementation of the annual plans of DRDAs, including the DRDA
Administration scheme.
Performance during 2011-12
7.
During the year 2011-12, out of the budgeted allocation was
85
Rs 461.00 crore, a sum of Rs. 550.00 crore was released to the DRDAs for
meeting their salary and contingency expenses. The allocation was
increased from Rs. 461.00 crores to Rs. 550.00 crores by way of reappropriation from the overall savings of the Department. The State-wise
allocation and release made during 2011-2012 are given at Annexure-I.
Performance during 2012-13
8.
During the year 2012-13, out of the budgeted allocation is Rs 500.00
crore, a sum of Rs. 247.33 crore have been released to the DRDAs for
meeting their salary and contingency expenses as on 31/12/2012. The Statewise allocation and release made during 2012-2013 are given at Annexure-I.
9.
In order to strengthen and professionalise the DRDAs to meet the new
challenges, a Committee under the Chairmanship of Shri V. Ramachandran,
comprising
senior officers from some States, Ministry of Rural
Development, Ministry of Panchayati Raj and National Advisory Council
was constituted in November, 2010. The Committee has since submitted its
report which has been accepted by the Government with some
modifications. EFC note for restructuring of the Scheme of DRDA
Administration is under preparation.
10.
An outlay of Rs.250 crore has been made for the year 2013-2014.

PROVISION OF URBAN AMENITIES IN
RURAL AREAS (PURA)
The Government has approved Provision of Urban Amenities in
Rural Areas (PURA) Scheme for implementation on pilot basis in 11th Five
Year Plan with the budgetary provision of Rs. 248 crore. The scheme
proposes holistic and accelerated development of compact areas around a
potential growth centre in a Gram Panchayat (or a group of Gram
Panchayats) through Public Private Partnership (PPP) framework for
providing livelihood opportunities and urban amenities to improve the
quality of life in rural areas. The primary objectives of the scheme are the
provision of livelihood opportunities and urban amenities in rural areas to
bridge the rural – urban divide. The key elements of the restructured PURA
scheme are in subsequent paragraphs.
2.
The illustrative list of amenities and economic activities proposed to
be provided under PURA are as follows:Amenities to be
provided under MoRD
Schemes
Amenities to be
provided under
Non-MoRD
Schemes
1. Water and Sewerage
7. Village Street
2. Construction and
Lighting
maintenance of Village 8. Telecom
Streets
9. Electricity, etc.
3. Drainage
4. Solid Waste
Management
5. Skill Development
6. Development of
Economic Activities
Add-on Projects
(Revenue earning,
people centric
projects)
10. Village linked
tourism
11. Integrated Rural
Hub, Rural Market.
12. Agri – Common
Services Centre,
Warehousing, etc.
13. Any other ruraleconomy based
project
3.
The private sector is given the flexibility of selecting the Gram
Panchayat (s) on the basis of criteria socio – economic guidelines such as a
critical population size of 25,000 – 40,000 in an area of about 25 square
kilometer.
4. The private developer shall be responsible for creating and managing
88
the designated infrastructure and amenities in the Panchayat area over a
period of ten years. During the pilot phase, while there will an emphasis
upon rural development priorities, there shall also be an effort to dovetail
the developers‟ perspective on an economically viable project.
5.
Concerned schemes administered by the Ministry of Rural
Development will be converged in Capital Expenditure (CAPEX) provision
of PURA projects. The private developer shall also access the support under
relevant schemes of other Departments / Ministries and dovetail into PURA
for delivering the identified urban amenities. The implementation will be
done within the guidelines for each of the identified schemes. However, it is
expected that the developer shall invest some capital on it‟s own to fund the
essential infrastructure and meet operations & maintenance costs. The
viability gap that may still exist will be met from a capital grant limited to a
maximum of 35% of the project cost. Though capital grant will be limited
to a maximum of 35% of project cost, the actual capital grant admissible
will vary from project-to-project. During this pilot phase, the cost of each
PURA project shall be limited to a maximum of Rs. 120 crore.
6. The private developers shall be selected through an open competitive
bidding process based on rigorous qualifications and evaluation criteria.
The selection would be based on technical qualification.
7. A Concession Agreement will be signed between the Gram Panchayat
as the Grantor and the private developer as the concessionaire. It shall
include details of minimum service level standards, performance
guarantees, etc. State Support Agreement will be signed between Ministry
of Rural Development, State Government and private developer. The
commitment of State Government for delivering the core facilities like
roads, bulk water and power to the PURA area shall be made as part of this
agreement.
8. Asian Development Bank (ADB) has approved a 3-year Technical
Assistance to support MoRD during the pilot phase and help prepare for
the up-scaling phase.
9.
A notice was issued inviting Expression of Interest (EoI) from private
sector entities on 15th April 2010 in leading national and financial dailies. In
response to the notice, ninety three (93) EoIs were received. These EoIs
have been examined and 45 organizations have qualified at the EoI Stage.
These 45 organizations were asked to submit the detailed bid alongwith
concept plan by 07th October 2010. Nine organizations have submitted
14 proposals. These proposals have been evaluated and 11 proposals
89
have qualified. The concerned private entities were asked to submit to
Detailed Project Report (DPR). A total of nine DPRs were submitted.
Two of the DPRs have been approved by the Empowered Committee and
were launched in February 2012 in Kerala. The remaining DPRs are under
evaluation.
10. For the second set of 10-15 pilots , 99 Expression of Interests were
received and are under evaluation.
11.
An outlay of Rs. 50 crore has been made for the year 2013-2014.

BPL Survey
The Ministry of Rural Development provides financial and technical
support to the States/UTs for conducting the BPL Census to identify the
families living Below the Poverty Line in the rural areas who could be
targeted under its various programmes. The first BPL Census was conducted
in 1992 for the eighth five year plan. Subsequently, BPL census was
conducted in 1997, for the Ninth five year plan and in 2002 for the Tenth
five year plan period. For conducting the BPL Census for the Eleventh Five
Year Plan, the Ministry, on 12th August, 2008, constituted an Expert Group,
to advise it on the suitable methodology. The Expert Group submitted its
report on 21st August 2009 under chairmanship of Dr. N.C. Saxena.
2.
The Expert Group recommended the methodology for identification of
Below Poverty Line families, which includes criterion for automatic
exclusion of rural household from the BPL list, automatic inclusion in the
BPL list and grading of the remaining households on a scale of one to ten.
The Expert Group has also recommended the methodology for conducting
the Census and appropriate appeal mechanisms.
3.
The Report of the Expert Group was posted on the Ministry‟s website
www.rural.nic.in soliciting comments and suggestions. It was circulated
among the State Governments/UT administrations and the concerned Central
Ministries for their comments. The Ministry also consulted the issue of
finalization of methodology with experts in the related field. The experts
suggested pre-testing the methodology with alternative methodology
options. Accordingly, MORD has conducted through States/UTs a BPL Pilot
survey to field test alternative methodologies.
4.
Results of pilot study were discussed on 1st Feb. 2011 in Core Group
on BPL Census and subsequently with States/UTs on 7th Feb. 2011. On the
basis of discussion a draft questionnaire for BPL Census was prepared.
5.
The Ministry of Rural Development sought approval of cabinet for the
methodology for conducting the BPL Census 2011. The modalities for
conducting the BPL Census for 12th Plan Period in rural areas along with
Census in urban areas in connection identification of BPL households in
urban areas and Caste Census throughout the country have been approved by
the Union Cabinet.
91
Progress
6.
A Socio Economic and Caste Census (SECC 2011) has been launched
on 29th June 2011 in the country which would be carried out by the
respective State/Union Territory Governments with the financial and
technical support of the Government of India. Socio Economic and Caste
Census consist of Census in Rural areas and Urban areas in connection with
identification of BPL households and Caste Census throughout the country.
Socio-Economic and Caste Census 2011 (SECC 2011) is being carried out
in all States/UTs in a phased manner taking into consideration their
preparedness and other relevant considerations. The Census is expected to be
completed by May 2013.
7.
The SECC 2011 is being conducted through a comprehensive
programme involving the Ministry of Rural Development, Ministry of
Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation, The Office of the Registrar General
and Census Commissioner, India and the State Governments. Enumeration
is being done with the help of an electronic handheld device (Tablet PC).
Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL) has supplied about 6 lakhs Tablet PCs to
States/UTs to carry out this operation. BEL lead consortium of CPSUs is
also providing Data Entry Operators (DEOs) other technical services in
connection with software for data collection and data transfer etc. National
Informatics Centre (NIC) has developed a web based comprehensive
Management Information System (MIS) for utilization of data.
8.
About 96% of the enumeration under SECC 2011 has already been
completed. The Ministry has developed the Verification and Correction
module for removing some of the discrepancies observed in the data. The
Verification and Correction module for removing some of the discrepancies
observed in the data. The verification and Correction module has been
launched and the states are in process of completing the exercise. After the
verification of data is over the states will start the process of publication of
draft list for claims and objection.

Constitution of Expert Committee
10. In a joint statement issued on 3rd October, 2011 by Deputy Chairman,
Planning Commission and Hon‟ble Minister of Rural Development is has
92
been stated that the Government of India will take into account multiple
dimensions of deprivation based on the indicators that are being collected
through the SECC, 2011 for arriving at specific entitlements that rural
households will receive under various central government programmes and
schemes. Accordingly, the Ministry of Rural Development has constituted
an Expert Committee on 28th December, 2012 under the Chairmanship of
Prof Abhijit Sen, which will examine the SECC indicators and the data
analysis and recommend appropriate methodologies for determining classes
of beneficiaries for different rural development programmes. It will consult
States, Experts & Civil Society Organization while arriving at these
methodologies.
Budget for BPL Census
11. Providing financial assistance to States/UTs for Conducting the BPL
Census is not a regular scheme as such and Generally conducted only once
in five year. Nature of the activity is such that bulk of the expenditure occurs
in a short span of time and particularly during the period when actual census
takes place.
12. Initially, it was envisaged that the BPL Census would be conducted in
2010-11 and accordingly Rs.312 crores were sought from the Planning
Commission.An amount of Rs.150 crores were provided during 2009-10 and
Rs.162 crores were provided in 2010-11. Rs.150 crores allocated in 20092010 was released to States/UTs and NIRD as first instalment for conducting
BPL Census and allied activities. However out of Rs.162 crores available
under BE 2010-11, Rs.161 crores could not be utilized due to delay in
starting of BPL Census because MORD decided to conduct a Pilot survey to
field test alternative methodologies and to arrive on methodology for
conducting BPL Census. (Based on the advice of the experts in the related
field).
13. Subsequently the Ministry of Rural Development with approval of
Union Cabinet has decided to conduct a combined Census namely “SocioEconomic and Caste Census 2011 (SECC 2011) with help of Hand Held
Devices (HHDs) for collecting Socio-economic and caste data of households
in the rural and urban areas of the country. Socio economic data collected
from SECC 2011 will be utilized by respective States/UTs for identifying
BPL households in Rural, under the purview of Ministry of Rural
Development, as well as urban areas under the purview of the Ministry of
Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation (HUPA). Caste Census comes under
the purview of RGI and Census Commissioner of India.
93
14. The expenditure to conduct the SECC, 2011 has been considered by
the Expenditure Finance Committee (EFC) which approved the estimated
expenditure of Rs.3543.29 crore for the combined census (SECC 2011).
Bulk of this estimated expenditure occurs in the Financial Year 2011-12 for
which besides allocation of Rs.300 crore under BE 2011-12, Rs.2300 crore
have
been provided through first Supplementary Grants, 2011-12. Out of this, the
amount of Rs.2580 crore had been released to the States/UTs during the
Financial Year, 2011-12. The outlay for 2012-13 is of Rs.275 crore. Another
Rs.100 crore is being provided in the RE, thus making the total allocation for
conducting the SECC 2011 comes to Rs.375 crore during the year 2012-13.
Out of this, an amount of Rs.272 crore had been released as on 31st January,
2013.
15.
For conducting the Socio Economic and Caste Census 2011, out of
the approved amount of Rs. 3543.29 crore approved by the EFC, Rs.3237
crore have been provided from 2009-2010 up to 2012-13. Keeping in view
the various factors due to which the work of SECC has been delayed and
there will be spill over of the SECC work during the year 2013-14,
remaining funds, as per the approval of EFC, would be required to be
released to CPSUs & States/UTs which are engaged in completing the SECC
work.
16.
An outlay of Rs.59.00 crore has been made for the year 2013-2014.
94
National Social Assistance Programme (NSAP)
The National Social Assistance Programme (NSAP) was launched on
15th August 1995 as a Centrally Sponsored Scheme. In 2002-03, NSAP,
consisting of National Old Age Pension Scheme (NOAPS), National Family
Benefit scheme (NFBS) and Annapurna were transferred to State Plan.
Indira Gandhi National Old age Pension Scheme (IGNOAPS) was launched
on 19-11-2007 by modifying the eligibility criteria under NOAPS. Two new
schemes namely Indira Gandhi National Widow Pension Scheme
(IGNWPS) and Indira Gandhi National Disability Pension Scheme
(IGNDPS) have been launched in February, 2009.. The funds for NSAP are
released as Additional Central Assistance (ACA) by the Ministry of Finance
as a combined allocation for all the five schemes together namely,
IGNOAPS, IGNWPS, IGNDPS, NFBS and Annapurna, on the
recommendation of the Ministry of Rural Development. For the year 201213, budgetary provision of 8447.00 crore has been made for NSAP.
2.
The scale of benefit, eligibility and coverage under various schemes
of NSAP are as follows:
(i) Indira Gandhi National Old Age Pension Scheme (IGNOAPS):
3.
At inception , under NOAPS, 75 per month was being provided per
beneficiary to destitute above 65 years or higher. The amount of central
assistance was increased to
200 per month w.e.f.1.4.2006. Further the
coverage was increased by liberalizing the eligibility criteria by launching
Indira Gandhi National Old age Pension Scheme(IGNOAPS) on 19.11.2007.
the eligibility criteria was changed from one “who is 65 years or higher and
a destitute“ to one “ who is 65 years or higher and belonging to a household
below poverty line according to the criteria prescribed by the Government of
India”. With effect from 1.4.2011, eligibility age under IGNOAPS has been
reduced from 65 years to 60 years and amount of central assistance for
beneficiaries of age 80 years and above has been increased form
200 per
month to
500 per month. The coverage has already increased to 218 lakh
till dated from 87 lakh persons covered during 2006-07.
(ii) National Family Benefit Scheme(NFBS):
4.
At inception grant of 5000 in case of death due to natural causes
and 10000 in case of accidental death of the “primary breadwinner”
was provided to the bereaved household under the scheme. The primary
95
breadwinner specified in the scheme, whether male or female, had to be a
member of the household whose earning contributed substantially to the
total household income. The death of such a primary breadwinner occurring
whilst he or she was in the age group of 18 to 64 years i.e., more than 18
years and of age and less than 65 years of age, made the family eligible to
receive grants under the scheme. In 1998, the amount of benefit under NFBS
was raised to
10000 in case of death due to natural causes as well as
accidental causes. W.e.f. 18.10.2012 the amount of assistance has been
increased to 20,000. During the year 2012-13, States have reported 1.69
lakh beneficiaries till December 2012.
(iii) Annapurna:
5.
On 1st April, 2000 a new scheme known as Annapurna Scheme was
launched. This Scheme aimed at providing food security of those destitute
senior citizens( 65 years or above in age) who, though eligible had remained
uncovered under the NOAPS. Under Annapurna Scheme 10 Kgs of food
grains per month is provided free of cost to the beneficiary. With the
liberalization of eligibility criteria, all the beneficiaries under Annapurna are
proposed to be bought over to IGNOAPS. However, the supreme court in
Writ P (Civil) No. 196 of 2001-PUCL vs. Union of India and others passed
orders dated 27-04-2009 to the effect that till further orders, certain schemes
would continue to operate which include Annapurna. During the year 201213, States have reported 7.78 lakh beneficiaries till December 2012.

Development of Web Based Application
6.
Since 01.10.2009, CAPART has only been accepting projects
proposals online through the portal functioning under the aegis of the
Planning Commission. Apart from introducing transparency into the system,
this would also enable VOs to track the status of their project proposals.
IT based comprehensive transformation
interaction with stakeholders.
7.
of
CAPART’s
CAPART is in the process of switching over to web based application
109
software consisting of three modules:
a. Financial Accounting – General Ledger Module;
b. Receipt and Dispatch Tracking System Module; and
c. Project Monitoring Information System.
8.
This system will be integrated with NGO – PS in such a way that
NGOs registering and applying for grants online would get linked with
CAPART‟s portal and work flow. The process is at the final stage of
completion.
Ongoing Schemes of CAPART:
9.
CAPART's functioning is currently limited to administering the
PMRDF programme, Marketing and task relating to restructuring of
CAPART.
I. Prime Minister's Rural Development Fellows (PMRDFs):
10. On 13th September, 2011, Prime Minister's Rural Development
Fellows Scheme (PMRDFs) was announced by Hon'ble Union Minister of
Rural Development in the presence of Hon'ble Prime Minister, for deploying
young professionals in each of the IAP Districts under the District
Administration. It was also declared that the cost of this scheme will be met
from the budget of CAPART. What is implicit though in the announcement
is that the challenge of Left Wing Extremism violence cannot be dealt with
by following the 'business as usual' path, and that new ways must be found
for increasing efficiency and effectiveness of the public services. This
requires rigorous efforts to understand the local communities, their sociocultural and political structure, local economy and its linkages, and
relationship of the political and executive machinery with the community.
Above all, it requires weaving relationships among all the important actors
in a way that the disaffection and discontent are addressed effectively.
Creating a deep sense of empathy in the administration for the poorer and
marginalised sections would be a sine qua non for democratic governance in
areas affected by Left Wing Extremism. Moreover, the District
Administration needs fresh input in improving the planning process,
refurbishing the implementation machinery, monitoring results and
influencing government decisions for quick redressal of the pressing issues
whenever necessary.
110
Objectives of PMRDF Scheme
11. The main objective of the PMRDF scheme is to provide short term
catalytic support to the District Administration in 82 IAP Districts to
improve programme delivery as well as to develop a cadre of development
facilitators whose professional skills and experience in IAP Districts will
make them useful resource persons in the subject.
II. Marketing
12. To provide marketing avenues for the products manufactured under
the various income generation schemes of CAPART, the Council has been
organising Gram Shree Melas since the year 1989. In the initial years, the
Melas were generally confined to the Metros and capital cities. In the past
decade, however the Melas are being held at the district levels. The Scheme
for Melas was decentralised in the year 2005.
13. Besides providing outlets for the products manufactured under the
income generation schemes of CAPART and the Ministry of Rural
Development, the Melas have helped in creating awareness about the
activities of the Council as well as the schemes of the Ministry of Rural
Development.
14. CAPART organized/participated in various International/National
fairs like SARAS Melas during IITF-2012 at Pragati Maidan, Dilli Haat,
INA and also in the Shishir SARAS- 2012, at Dilli Haat.
III. Restructuring of CAPART
15. Restructuring of CAPART is under process. The Project Document
outlining a detailed frame work for restructuring of CAPART in a time
bound manner has been prepared by this Ministry. It has been decided to
engage an agency viz. Tata Institute of Social Science (TISS) which may go
into specific details of all aspects of the organization and its functioning and
render assistance in the restructuring exercise. A draft Terms of Reference
(TOR) for the consulting agency has also been finalized by a Committee
constituted under the Chairmanship of Additional Secretary (RD). The first
meeting with TISS officials was held on 08.01.2013 wherein broad issues
relating to Restructuring of CAPART were discussed and minutes of the
meeting are awaited.

NATIONAL INSTITUTE OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT
(NIRD)
The National Institute of Rural Development (NIRD) is an apex
institute for training and research in rural development in India. It is an
autonomous organization of the Ministry of Rural Development. It is
located at Hyderabad with three Regional Centres of NIRD: the North
Eastern Regional Centre (NERC) at Guwahati, Assam, established in 1983,
the Eastern Regional Centre (ERC) at Patna, Bihar established in 2008 and
the NIRD-Jaipur Centre at Jaipur, Rajasthan established in October 2010, to
supplement the training and research activities of NIRD, to meet specific
training needs of the North Eastern Region, Eastern Region and Northern
Regions of India respectively.
2.
The management and general control of the institute is vested in the
General Council presided over by the Union Minister of Rural Development.
Besides this, there is an Executive Council presided over by the Union
Minister of Rural Development which is responsible for the management
and administration of the Institute subject to the general control and
direction of the General Council.
3.
The vision of NIRD is to focus on training in the field of policies and
programmes that benefit the rural poor, energize the democratic
decentralization process, improve the operational efficiency of rural
development personnel, promote transfer of technology through its social
laboratories, Technology Park and create inclusive environmental
awareness.
4.
The training programmes are generally of short duration, in no case
exceeding four weeks. However, there are some international training
programmes of 4 to 12 weeks duration attended by the delegates from
developing countries. The institute had planned 950 programmes in 2011-12
and conducted 980 programmes. In the year 2012-13, the Institute had
planned 1000 programmes and conducted 290 programmes up to December,
2012. For the year 2013-14, NIRD has proposed 1100 training programmes
and 50 research studies.
5.
The Institute‟s research, training and consultancy services are availed
by departments of the Central and State Governments, public sector
undertakings, international agencies as well as voluntary agencies and
115
training institutions involved in rural development. In order to ensure
continous improvement in quality of training, special mechanisms have been
instituted viz TQIMC, use of more effective training methodologies, improved
evaluation mechanisms and regular monitoring of training programmes.
6.
Participants in workshops, seminars and consultations are persons
associated with policymaking, programme implementation and academicians.
Recommendations and action points emerging out of their deliberations are
widely shared with developmental departments and other agencies. The
training activities of the Institute were given wide coverage through
networking of SIRDs. The Institute also organized 8 international training
programmes with the fellowships of ITEC & SCAAP of Ministry of External
Affairs.
7.
The research agenda of NIRD extends to rural development themes
like decentralization of developmental processes, empowerment of local
institutions and socially disadvantaged groups, resource management for
sustainable development, transfer of technology to the poor in farm and nonfarm activities, IT applications for rural development, human resource
development, agrarian reforms and rural poverty. Its research studies lay
emphasis on the impact of developmental initiatives on the livelihoods of core
poverty groups and resource and infrastructure development in eco-fragile
regions. The Institute concentrates mainly on diagnostic and applied research
focusing on rural problems. The conclusions emerging from field research are
tested in real rural situations. The research work is broadly classified as :
(i) Theme based research concerned with issues relating to
vulnerability, social discrimination, social justice, gaps in social and
physical infrastructure, etc.,
(ii) Nation-wide research on major programmes of the government to
identify missing links in implementation and policy options.
(iii) Collaborative research with other institutions and capacity building
of State Institutes of Rural Development (SIRDs) coupled with
financing and guidance for research activities of SIRDs.
8.
Out of 50 research projects sanctioned in 2011-12, 24 research studies
have been completed and the rest are continuing. During the year 2012-13,
116
altogether 50 research projects are in progress which includes 30 research
studies, 1 action research, and 19 consultancy projects.
9.
The Institute has been evincing greater interest in action research in
the last few years. Its main concerns are to identify and promote conditions
for participatory development, evolve approaches for mobilizing the poor
women especially around developmental issues to empower them,
strengthen Gram Panchayats as vibrant units of local governance,
development and income generation, land reforms etc.
10.
Information Resource Base Development is a continuous activity at
Centre for Media and Rural Documentation (CMRD) library which makes
efforts to increase the collection of books and other information resources on
a continuous basis. The library maintains a computerized database of books
and journals, which is updated.
11. To popularize rural technologies, a Rural Technology Park (RTP) has
been set up at the Institute to spread awareness on current rural technologies
and promote rural development spread over 62 acres of land. The RTP has a
Technology Bank. The overall goal of Technology Bank (Te-bank) initiative
is to serve as a platform for collecting and sharing technology related
information with a view to enhancing the livelihood opportunities for the
rural communities including tribal groups, farmers, landless labourers and
rural citizens by linking the efforts and optimization of technologies of
various organizations working in this direction. The Te-Bank could serve as
an institutional information repository of technologies to ensure a regular
flow of technologies needed for the society. Activities undertaken include
designing the layout and designs of rural houses from different regions,
development of vermi compost, development of aromatic and medicinal
plants and training illiterate women as solar engineers.
12. The NIRD has started a one-year Post Graduate Diploma Programme
in Rural Development from August 2008. After the completion of the
Course, all the candidates have received placements in both private and
Government Sectors. All the students of second batch were offered
placement by various organisations. The programme‟s aim is developing a
committed and competent cadre of rural development management
professionals in the country and eventually create a large pool of
professional programme delivery managers whose induction is vital to the
success of the Ministry‟s programmes.

CHAPTER - VII
Management Support to Rural Development
Programmes and Strengthening of District Planning
The Scheme namely „Management Support to Rural Development
Programmes and Strengthening of District Planning ‟ was introduced from
2007-2008 by consolidating the financial resources of the schemes namely
Monitoring Mechanism, IEC, Training, Information Technology and
International Cooperation. A budget provision of Rs. 120.00 crore was made
in B.E. 2012-2013 and an outlay of Rs.120 crores has been made for 2013-14
under the scheme. The scheme primarily focuses on the following:(a)
Evolving a comprehensive system for effective monitoring and
evaluation of various rural development programmes through periodical
progress reports, Annual conferences, workshops and seminars and
inspection through field visits by Senior Officers of the Ministry, besides
carrying out in-depth studies in the form of concurrent evaluation and
impact assessment studies through reputed and independent research
organizations to ascertain the pace of implementation and impact of
these programmes at grass root level.
(b)
Training and skill development of Rural Development functionaries and
members of Panchayati Raj Institutions in rural development at Centre,
State and District Block Level by providing financial support to State
Institutes of Rural Development and Extension Training Centers apart
from organization of training courses/seminars/workshops relating to
rural development programmes.
(c)
Creating awareness amongst the largest groups of Rural Development
Programmes and mobilizing them towards participatory development;
sensitizing opinion makers, urban elites about issues relating to Rural
Development and creating awareness amongst the general public.
(d)
Exploiting the advances of Information Technology for effective
implementation of Rural Development Programmes.
121
(e)
Promoting Regional and International exchange of experience of India
on mutual and multi-lateral basis in the field of rural development with
other developing countries with overall objective of Capacity Building
of functionaries involved in rural development.
I. MONITORING MECHANISM
2.
Effective monitoring of the programmes is very important, particularly
in view of the substantial step up in the allocation of funds under Rural
development programmes since the Eighth Five Year Plan.
It is well
recognized that the success of the development programmes largely depends
on the effective delivery system and efficient implementation at the grassroot
level so that the programme benefits reach the rural poor in full measure. In
order to ensure this, the Ministry of Rural Development has evolved a
comprehensive multi-level and multi-tool system of Monitoring and
Evaluation for the implementation of its programmes. Strict monitoring,
periodic evaluations, transparency, accountability, people‟s involvement and
social audit are key elements of the monitoring evaluation system adopted by
the Ministry of Rural Development.
Estimates of Poverty
3.
Poverty in rural areas as reduced from 56.44% in 1973-74 to 28.30% on
2004-05, as per the official estimates made by the Planning Commission. The
percentage of population living below the poverty line as estimated by the
Planning Commission for 1973-74 to 2004-05 is given in the Table below:Year

Instruments of Monitoring
A. Review by the Union Ministers
4.
The Minister of Rural Development and the Ministers of State for Rural
Development visit States/UTs to review the performance of various Rural
Development programmes with the Chief Ministers, Ministers and officials of
the State Government concerned. Such review meetings provide necessary
inputs in the implementation of the programmes by energizing and motivating
the implementing agencies. The need for ensuring better utilization of funds
and delivery of benefits to the target groups is emphasized in these review
meetings.
B. On-Line Reporting of Monthly Progress Report
5.
The Government of India has emphasized the need on e-governance in
all possible areas to streamlines the reporting system of financial and physical
achievements. In pursuance of this, the State Governments/ Union Territories
and DRDAs were requested to take action to ensure that MPRs compiled by
the DRDAs and implementing agencies are sent through the electronic
medium. About 600 DRDAs are submitting their progress reports of rural
development programmes namely SGSY/NRLM, IAY, MGNREGA, DRDA
Administration, through On-Line system and remaining few districts have been
advised to initiate action for on line reporting of monthly progress reports.
C. Utilization Certificates/Audit Reports
6.
The procedure adopted for release of funds to the States under various
rural development programmes stipulate that the State Governments should
furnish Utilization Certificates to the effect that the funds have been utilized
for the purpose for which these were sanctioned and no diversion has taken
place. The auditing of accounts and reports thereon are a pre-condition for the
release of the second and the subsequent installments. State Governments have
been advised to ensure the authenticity of Utilization Certificates. The
States/UTs have also been advised to furnish utilization certificates for each of
the installment of funds released to them under the rural development
programmes, even if the expenditure during the financial year is zero.
D.
7.
Performance Review Committee
In pursuance of the suggestions made by the Planning Commission, the
123
Ministry has constituted the Performance Review Committee (PRC) under the
chairmanship of Secretary (RD). The PRC has representation of State
Secretaries, in- charge of rural development, Panchayati Raj and Social
Welfare Department. The other representatives of PRC are from the Planning
Commission and Central Ministries/Departments of Ministry of Finance,
Statistics & Programme Implementation and Environment & Forests. With a
view to have detailed discussions and review of programmes it is suggested to
hold separate meetings for North Eastern (NE) states including Sikkim, other
States and Union Territories (UTs). Accordingly, during the year 2012-13 first
meeting of PRC of the States except NE states was held on 31 st May and Ist
June, 2012 and for NE states on 23rd June, 2012 at Shillong. The Second
meeting of PRC was held on 15th and 16th October, 2012 for Non-NE states,
for NE States it was held on 30th October, 2012 and for UTs on 9th May, 2012.
The Committee reviewed the performance of various programmes being
implemented in States/UTs, and appropriate recommendations were made for
corrective action, wherever found necessary.
E.

(ii) Pradhan Manti Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY)
9.
A modern Management and Monitoring System called On-line
Management, Monitoring and Accounting System (OMMAS) have been set up
124
for the PMGSY. This Web-based on-line monitoring system is developed to
facilitate monitoring and transparency and embedded Decision Support
Systems for on-time delivery, cost management and quality control. The entire
database is placed in the Citizens‟ domain. The Ministry of Rural Development
have engaged the Centre For Development of Advanced
Computing (C-DAC), Pune to develop and manage a web-based On-line
Management & Monitoring and Accounting System (OMMAS) for the
PMGSY. Monitoring modules include Connectivity Status, Procurement
Status, Physical and financial progress, Account and Quality monitoring.
The main Application Software Modules are (i) Rural Road Plan & Core
Network, (ii) Proposals, Tendering & Contracting, (iv) Execution, (v) Quality
Monitoring, (vi) and (vi) Payments & Funds Flow (works accounts). The Web
site http://www.omms.nic.in is hosted on NIC‟s server in Delhi. The Payment
and Fund Flow module is being operationalised. A Central Website has also
been developed by the Rural Connectivity Division of NIC containing details
of the PMGSY Scheme, Guidelines, Agencies involved, role and
responsibilities, progress, etc. and can be accessed at www.pmgsy.nic.in
(iii)
Indira Aawas Yojana (IAY)
10. A web based Management Information System for IAY has been
lounged to enable work flow based transaction level MIS to facilitate egovernance in the system. AAWAS SOFT provides information regarding
targets and status of release of funds to each beneficiaries along with house
construction. The objective of Aawas Soft are to ensure auto mission of
workshop, transparency, exchange of information among the stake holders and
empowering people.
F.
Concurrent Evaluation/ Quick Evaluation
11. The Ministry of Rural Development undertakes Concurrent
Evaluation/Impact assessment studies from time to time, through reputed and
independent Research Institutions/Organizations. The main objectives of these
Evaluation Studies are to evaluate the performance of the Schemes at the field
level, and to assess the impact of the programmes and to identify the problems
in course of implementation so as to make mid-course corrections, wherever
necessary. The Status of the Evaluation Studies in 2012-13 is given below:
Evaluation Studies under Progress

Evaluation of Indira Gandhi National Old Age Pension Scheme
(IGNOAPS)
125

Evaluation of Special Project under SGSY (Skill Development
and Placement)
Vigilance and Monitoring Committees (VMCs)
12. The Vigilance & Monitoring Committees (VMCs) are constituted at
State as well as district level to function as an important instrument for
effective monitoring of implementation of the programmes of the Ministry of
Rural Development. They provide a crucial role for the Members of Parliament
and elected representatives of people in State Legislatures and Panchayati Raj
Institutions (PRIs) in reviewing the implementation of the rural development
programmes. Meetings of the Vigilance and Monitoring Committees at State
and District level are required to be held every quarter.
13. After the constitution of the XV Lok Sabha, the Ministry issued
guidelines for reconstituting State and District level VMCs and nominated
members for State level VMCs and Chairmen / Co-Chairmen for district level
VMCs and advised State Government/district authorities to reconstitute
State/district level VMCs accordingly.
14.
Minister of Rural Development of concerned State is the Chairman of
the State level Committee. The Senior most MP (LS) of the District is
normally the Chairman of the District level VMCs . For the State Level VMC,
the Secretary in-charge of the Rural Development Programmes in the State/UT
is the Member Secretary. In respect of the district level VMC, the District
Collector/District Magistrate/Deputy Commissioner (except in cases where
specific exemption has been given by the Union Government) is the Member
Secretary. In the State of Karnataka, special permission has been given by the
Ministry to make CEO of the Zilla Panchayat as Member Secretary of district
level VMC.
15.
The VMC guidelines have been revised in September,2010 with a view
to make the meeting more effective and to encourage the States/districts to
hold more VMC Meetings. The revised guidelines envisage the following:
 Member Secretary is personally responsible for convening Meetings;

1,00,000/- per Meeting for State VMC and 50,000/- per Meeting for
district VMC is reimbursable from the Ministry;
 District level VMCs to also review the disbursement/utilization of funds
and physical progress under Special Projects of SGSY, if any.
126
 Lead Bank Officer of the district and Senior Superintendent/
Superintendent of the Postal Department in the district is also a
Members of the district level VMCs;
 Chief Postmaster General of the Postal Circle(s) in the State is a
Member of the State level VMCs;
16. For action on any matter pertaining to the State Government as emerged
in
the
Meeting,
the
Committee
would
forward
their
observation/recommendation to them. The Ministry of Rural Development is
to be informed of any gross violation noticed.
17. During the year 2012-13(upto 4th January, 2013), 15 meetings of State
level Committee and 519 meetings of district level Committees have been
held. The Ministry has been vigorously pursuing with the State Governments
and district administrations to convene more Meetings, particularly in view of
personal responsibility of the Member Secretary to convene the Meetings. The
reason for less number of meetings vary from State to State. It includes delay
on the part of Chairman in indicating the date for the Meeting, postponement
due to inability of the Chairman to attend the Meeting, elections, preoccupation
of Member Secretary, etc.
National Level Monitors (NLMs)
18. To ensure effective implementation of rural development
programmes in a transparent manner and according to programme
guidelines, the Ministry has a panel of National Level Monitors
(NLMs), who are retired Defence/ Civil service officers. The NLMs are
generally deputed by the Ministry for following three types of monitoring
assignments : i)
Regular monitoring : The NLMs are deputed to visit districts
periodically, generally twice a year, to monitor and report on
various aspects of implementation of major RD Programmes.
ii)
Special Monitoring of individual programmes : NLMs are
deputed to cover a particular programme or some specific
aspects of it and make a report on the issues / processes in
detail.
127
iii)
Complaint / Enquiries: In case of complaints of serious nature
from people‟s
representatives, NGOs, etc. regarding misutilization of funds, irregularities etc., NLMs are deputed to
verify the facts or for a preliminary enquiry.
19.
The NLMs are required to visit the districts, ascertain the
implementation of the programmes viz-a-viz the guidelines, interact with
officials, verify the assets created and interview the villagers and
submit report within a given time frame. The NLMs deputed to the
State are also required to interact with the Secretary or Senior Officers
in – charge of RD Schemes in the State. 318 districts have already been
covered by the NLMs in the first phase of Regular Monitoring during 2012-13
and 296 districts are being covered by the NLMs in the ongoing second phase
of Regular Monitoring during 2012-13. So far 19 complaints have been
enquired into by the NLMs during the year (2012-13). Two Regional
Workshops for NLMs have been organized during 2012-13 for sharing the
findings. All the districts in the country are proposed to be covered by the
NLMs for Regular Monitoring during the year 2013-14. Inclusion of
photographs of sites in the reports, online reporting of data and sharing of
reports with districts and States are also insisted upon.
20.
The Scheme has recently been revamped and guidelines have
been issued. The Ministry has decided to engage Institutional NLMs for
conducting enquiries into the complaints regarding irregularities in the
implementation of rural development programmes. Wide publicity to the
visit of NLMs would be given so as to give an opportunity to the
public to meet NLMs and report grievances, if any.
21.
The revised guidelines provide for linking the release of funds to
States/ districts with action taken on NLM reports. If no satisfactory
action is taken by the State / district for more than one full financial
year, further release of funds to such State / district under the particular
Scheme would be withheld and the general public of the State / district
concerned would be informed of it, through wide publicity in the media
and by posting on the website of the Ministry. The gist of complaints and
the findings of NLMs along with action taken in respect of the reports are
now accessible to the public through the website of the Ministry.
22. With these initiatives, the quality of implementation of the rural
development programmes is expected to improve considerably during
2013– 14.
128
Area Officers Scheme
23. Ministry of Rural Development introduced an Area Officers Scheme
w.e.f. 1.1.1994 as an important monitoring mechanism for implementation of
major programmes of the Ministry. The scheme was framed with a clear cut
objective to directly monitor the programmes of the Ministry with special
reference to quality of assets created, adherence to implementation schedule,
flow of funds, proper utilization of funds and achievements of physical and
financial targets etc. through field visits. The visit of the Area Officer is not
intended to be for fault finding. The visits would facilitate improvements in the
efficiency and efficacy of implementation of the programs of the Ministry,
through close hand-holding with the stake holders.
24. Senior officers of this Department have been designated as Area
Officers for different States. During the visit, a review meeting would be held
with district concerned. After the field visit, the Area Officer would debrief the
State Secretary in charge of the RD programmes and the Chief of the
implementing Agency in the district. A copy of the complete Report would be
e-communicated to Secretary, Rural Development Department of the State,
District Collector/CEO of Zila Panchayat for appropriate action with a view to
improve the delivery of benefits to the targeted people.
25. Twelve States were visited by the Area Officers in 2012-13 upto
31.12.2012. It is expected that all States will be visited by Area Officers during
2013-14.
II. Information, Education and Communication (IEC)
26. Information, Education and Communication (IEC) plays a vital role in
creating demand for the programmes of the Ministry of Rural Development by
instilling awareness of entitlements amongst the target audience.
27. Ministry aims at planning and execution of IEC activities to create
awareness about the programmes of the Ministry primarily amongst the target
groups in the rural areas. IEC activities assume more significance in the
context of the programmes of the Ministry which aim at improving the socioeconomic conditions and which need to be implemented effectively in a time
bound manner.
28.
The Ministry has a well laid IEC strategy and has been endeavoring for
129
the past few years to disseminate information through both the traditional as
well as modern communication media viz., press, radio, TV, printed material,
outdoor contact programmes, folk and traditional medium etc.
29. IEC activities undertaken during 2012-13 (upto 1st January, 2013) are as
under: Publication of different print publicity material like Bharat Nirman
Volunteers (BNV) Document, Posters, Rollups, etc. These are brought
out in Hindi, English and other regional languages through SIRDs.
 Grassroots level IEC activities and community mobilization through
BNVs in Lab-to-Land initiative undertaken and funds provided to the
SIRDs. The SIRDs published Calendars, Posters, Pamphlet etc. and
produced Audio Video material in regional languages.
 Production of 10 Audio spots through NFDC/DAVP on the programmes

III. Training Activities
32. The Ministry supports the training activities of States for effective
implementation of rural development programmes by providing financial
support to State Institutes of Rural Development (SIRDs) and Extension
Training Centres (ETCs). The SIRDs and ETCs are State institutes for
imparting training in the field of rural development to rural development
functionaries and elected representatives of Panchayati Raj Institutions and
others at State level and at District/Block level respectively. The Ministry
132
also
provides
financial
assistance
for
organizing
training
courses/seminars/workshops under the Scheme “Organization of Training
Courses”.
33. From 2007-08, these schemes have been merged with the new scheme
“Management Support to RD Programmes and Strengthening of District
Planning Process” as a Central Sector scheme.
(a)
State Institutes of Rural Development (SIRDs)
34.
The Centrally Sponsored Scheme for Establishment and Strengthening
of State Institutes of Rural Development (SIRD) (now Central Sector Scheme
after merging with the new scheme “Management Support to RD programmes
and Strengthening of District Planning Process” ) was taken up for
implementation during the VIth Five Year Plan. The scheme was continued
during the subsequent Plans to revitalize infrastructure for training rural
development functionaries for implementing programmes more effectively.
Twenty-eight SIRDs all over the country are operational with one in each
State.
35.
Following the enactment of the 73rd Constitutional Amendment, it was
decided to strengthen the existing training infrastructure at the State and
district/block levels to meet the training requirements of elected representatives
of Panchayati Raj Institutions and officials. For this purpose, the funding
pattern of the scheme was modified in 1994-95. 100% Central assistance is
being provided to SIRDs for non-recurring expenditure while recurring
expenditure is shared equally between the Central and State governments.
Central assistance is also provided for the procurement of 5 core faculty
members in each SIRD. From 2010-11, the recurring expenditure in respect
of N.E. States and Sikkim is shared in the ratio of 90:10 between Centre and
States. The scheme is operated on demand driven basis.
(b) Extension Training Centres (ETCs)
36. Extension Training Centres (ETCs) impart training to village and block
level developmental functionaries. The scheme was taken up for
implementation in the VIIth Plan. So far, 89 ETCs have been established and
upgraded with Central assistance. 100% Central assistance is provided to
State governments for non-recurring expenditure of ETCs and Rs. 20 lakh per
annum per ETC for recurring expenditure.
133
Achievement/Outputs during 2011-12 and 2012-13:
37. The position regarding achievements/output with reference to
outlays/targets fixed for 2011-12 and 2012-13 (upto December, 2012) are at
Annexure– I and Annexure– II respectively.
Physical Progress
38. Against the target of 21,000 training programmes, SIRDs/ETCs
conducted 23878 training programmes with 11.44 lakh participants in 2011-12.
In 2012-2013, against the target of 23,000 training programmes, the
SIRDs/ETCs conducted 20751 training programmes with 9.89 lakh
participants up to December, 2012. It is proposed to conduct 24,000 training
programmes during 2013-2014.
Financial Progress:
39. Entire Allocation of Rs. 77.10 crores was released in 2011-2012 to State
Institutes of Rural Development and Extension Training Centres. In 20122013, Rs. 46.66 crores has been released to State Institutes of Rural
Development/Extension Training Centres against the allocation of Rs. 55.00
crore up to December, 2012.
(c)
ORGANISATION OF TRAINING COURSES, SEMINARS AND
WORKSHOPS (O.T.C.)
40. A Central sector Plan scheme to provide financial assistance for holding
training courses, seminars and workshops on subjects relevant to rural
development has been in operation since the VIth Five Year Plan. Only the
proposals having a bearing on rural development and allied subjects received
from reputed research or academic institutions including Universities,
Departments, SIRDs, ETCs, and the State governments may be considered.
Preference will be given to the organizations having reputation and experience
of all India nature. In States where the SIRDs/ETCs do not have adequate
capabilities to undertake training programmes for all stakeholders, they may
associate eligible NGOs with proven track record
through a process of empanelment with prior approval of the Ministry of Rural
Development.
134
41. Entire Allocation of Rs. 15.00 crores was released in 2011-12 under this
scheme. In 2012-2013, Rs. 11.39 crore has been released against the allocation
of Rs. 15.00 crore up to December, 2012.
IV. Information Technology
42. To ensure efficiency and transparency in the Schemes being
implemented in Department of Rural Development and to provide easy access
to all the citizens in rural India, several initiatives at various levels (national,
State, District and Block levels) have been taken by way of strengthening the
ICT infrastructure and introducing various tools of e-Governance methods.
43.
The Ministry has its internet portal www.rural.nic.in for outside users
which is a single web access point for around 150 websites of rural domain.
The two Departments of the Ministry have separate websites namely
www.drd.nic.in for Department of Rural Development and www.dolr.nic.in for
Department of Land Resources. The portal provides details of all programmes
of the Ministry, their physical and financial performance, release of funds from
the Ministry of Rural Development. The Ministry has an Intranet Portal
http://mrd.nic.in/daily to strengthen e-governance. It provides access to all
day to day activities. The portal works on authorization matrix after the
person is logged in.
44.
Further, the File Tracking System and Biometric attendance
monitoring system are being implemented in the Department of Rural
Development successfully.
45. Workflow based transaction level MIS in local language has been
developed for Mahatma Gandhi NREGS (www.nrega.nic.in). An Electronic
Fund Management System(e-FMS) that leverages NEFT/RTGS/ECS platforms
has been developed for crediting payments in the accounts of the workers
under this Scheme. This solution also helps to reduce delays in payments.
Based on this principle of Centralized funding & de-centralized utility, the eFMS ensures timely availability of funds at all levels and its transparent usage.
In e-FMS, digitally signed payment advice is transferred to banks
electronically and, therefore, banks are not required to manually feed in details
of bank accounts of workers. This improves efficiency of the program on the
whole and also has a positive effect on timely payment of wages. The
seamless way of data transfer in e-FMS reduces the time taken in crediting
payments in the accounts of workers and ensures capture of real time
transactions and eliminates delays and leakages.
135
As e-FMS is fully integrated with NREGASoft, data once entered is not
required to be entered again. e-FMS is being implemented in five States viz.
Karnataka, Odisha, Gujarat, Rajasthan and Tripura. Mahatma Gandhi NREGS
also has provision for registering demand for work through mobile phones,
Interactive Voice Response System (IVRS), Information Kiosks etc. which
will empower the illiterate workers to claim their entitlement.
46. Under Indira Awaas Yojana, AWAAS soft has been developed for
transaction level, local language enabled MIS. The system is hosted on the site
http://iay.nic.in. All information on different components of Rural Housing
are available on this portal. All stake holders can access the portal and
view/enter information according to their role. The portal also facilitates emonitoring of State Rural Housing Schemes.
47. The SGSY Programme was restructured as National Rural Livelihood
Mission (NRLM) and renamed as “Aajeevika”. The programme is being
implemented in a mission mode across the country. The Mission envisages
institution of a comprehensive web-enabled MIS of the Mission right up to the
grassroots levels. The Mission envisages that the services of a Technical
Support Agency (TSA) and an Application Development Agency (ADA)
would be hired for facilitating institution of a comprehensive MIS. While the
TSA is expected to provide ICT policy and advice on platform architecture,
hardware and software, the ADA is expected to design, develop and facilitate
implementation of web-enabled MIS. The States are expected to hire services
of implementation agencies to customize, adopt and maintain the centrally
designed system. Since the design and roll out of the electronic platform for
NRLM (e-NRLMS) is expected to take some time, a transitory MIS is being
developed. This work has been initiated by NIC and would be completed by
March 2013.
48. For meeting the most expedient requirements of ICT infrastructure and
essential ICT services for corporate Management in NMMU and for
addressing the inadequacies of the existing ICT infrastructure, an interim ICT
action plan has been developed for NMMU and is under implementation.
Providing a cloud based secure network, strengthening ICT Infrastructure for
implementing e-office and e-procurement and developing learning
management systems etc. are components of the programme. Ajeevika
website was launched by the Hon‟ble Minister of Rural Development during
first Advisory Committee meeting of NRLM on 25th July. The URL of the
website is http://ajeevika.gov.in. A digital library and an intranet for document
management have also been put in place.
136
49. In order to effectively monitor the entire Programme and bring about
greater efficiency, accountability and transparency in the implementation of
Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY), a modern web based
On-line Management, Monitoring and Accounting System (OMMAS) has
been set up. The website is www.omms.nic.in. e-Payment and eProcurement are being integrated with it as new dimensions. One feature
that sets OMMAS apart from other softwares is its total transparency. One
can start with National level abstract outputs and drill one‟s way through the
State, District and Block level abstraction to the basic elements, such as
„roads‟, „habitations‟ and „Rupees‟. This website enables citizens to lodge
complaints, offer their comments or make a query about PMGSY. Also with
a view to have more dependable record of inspections and avoiding any
delays in reporting of quality monitoring, the C-DAC has developed Mobile
based Application Software for geo-tagged photographic recording of
quality parameters of road works inspected by independent monitors.
50. For strengthening the training on Rural development Programmes by
various training institutes viz. NIRD, SIRDs and ETCs, a portal Diksha
http://rural diksha.nic.in has been developed. The portal provides details of
workshop / conferences and colloquiums held on Rural Development
Schemes, SMS Service facility, online subscription for „Grameen Bharat‟,
Discussion forum for registered stakeholders, success stories of motivation
videos, National level representation of Bharat Nirman Volunteers (BNVs),
Performance Matrix and Courses being conducted by the SIRDs.
51. To ensure fast and unhindered flow of information right up to the
village level and vice versa, a unique SMS feature has been introduced in the
dedicated web portal www.ruraldiksha.nic.in. This web-enabled SMS helps
in linking up the policy makers at the Centre, State and District levels with
the frontline implementers of the programmes at the Block and Panchayat
levels, PRI representatives and above all the Bharat Nirman Volunteers.
Information is passed, cutting across layers, directly to the desired recipient
both in horizontal and vertical manner. Diksha portal has more than 20,000
mobile numbers of the BNVs spread in remotest parts of the country. Diksha
portal also has the facility for initiating discussion on subjects of common
concern and sharing of experiences through its various discussion forum
options. These are being extensively used by BNVs as well as other stake
holders leading to creation and expansion of knowledge communities.
52. The Ministry‟s website also provides information on various
monitoring tools, including National Level Monitors (NLM) and Vigilance
137
and Monitoring Committees (VMC). Status of meeting of VMC at State /
District levels and NLM reports are also uploaded on this site.
53. Grameen Vikas Innovation Council (GVIC) has been set up under
Ministry of Rural Development, focusing on re-defining innovation in the
development of rural sector identifying the critical areas inter-alia covering
rural areas to offer innovative solutions to problems faced at village level in
the country with an aim to harness core competencies, local talent, resources
and capabilities to create new employment opportunities in the sector.
54. The Plan allocation under Information Technology for the year
2011-12 was Rs.5.00 crore and for 2012-2013 the allocation is Rs.3.00
crore.

CHAPTER - VIII
GENDER AND SC/ST BUDGETING
EMPOWERMENT OF WOMEN
The Empowerment of Rural Women is crucial for the development of
Rural Bharat. Bringing women into the mainstream of development is a
major concern for the Government.
In a social set up like ours, the
participation of women in the development process has to be ensured through
tangible measures taken at various levels which result in empowerment of
women in the real sense. In view of above government has taken a conscious
view to make adequate provisions in its policies and programmes through
which it is to be ensured that the women of the country are empowered and
they become the active participants in the development process. The Hon‟ble
President of India has also taken initiative to achieve convergence of the
Government programmes for empowerment of women and to fight social
evils. The Department of Rural Development has also set up a Task Force to
achieve an effective convergence with the programmes of other
Ministries/Departments. The guidelines of various programmes of the
Department of Rural Development have been formulated in the above
perspective.
2.
The Department of Rural Development is implementing various
poverty alleviation and Rural Development Programmes. These programmes
have special components for Women and funds are earmarked as „Women‟s
Component‟ to ensure flow of adequate resources for the purpose. The major
schemes, having women‟s Component implemented by the Ministry of Rural
Development include the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment
Guarantee Act (MGNREGA), National Rural Livelihood Mission (NRLM)
and the Indira Awas Yojana (IAY). The implementation of these programmes
is monitored specifically with reference to coverage of women.
3.
While the benefits of the above mentioned programmes flowing to the
women can be measured in quantitative terms, however, in respect of other
programmes such as Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY), it is not
always so easy to collect the segregated data reflecting the direct benefits
flowing to the rural women. But these programmes do have a significant
impact on the living conditions of the rural women, e.g., providing
connectivity through the rural roads may enhance the opportunities for the girl
child to have an access to the education facilities.
141
4.
Similarly, the rural women may have an easy access to the health
facilities, local market which may not only increase their productivity but may
also increase their awareness which goes a long way to change the traditional
social structure and resulting in the improvement of the status of the rural
women. The Sanitation facilities available in the worksite leads to
improvement in the living environment of the rural women. Similarly, the
programme guidelines stipulate certain provisions for creation of specific
facilities at the worksites especially under MGNREGA for the working
women which is a mechanism to sensitize the administrative set up and other
delivery system to the women related issues. The brief description of the
programmes with specific gender provision is as under:(a) Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme
(MGNREGS): The MGNREGS guarantees 100 days of employment in a
financial year to any rural household whose adult members are willing to do
unskilled manual work. The Mahatma Gandhi NREGA brought into force
w.e.f. 2nd February 2006 in 200 most backward districts in its first phase.
Additional 130 districts were brought under Mahatma Gandhi NREGA during
2007-08 in its Phase II making a total of 330 districts under the Act. The
remaining districts have been brought under Mahatma Gandhi NREGA vide
notification dated 28th September, 2007 and come into force with effect from
1st April, 2008.
5.
The employment generated for women during 2011-12 and 2012-13 is

as Aajeevika. The objective of the NRLM is to reduce poverty by enabling
the poor households to access gainful self-employment and skilled wage
employment opportunities resulting in appreciable improvement in
their livelihoods on a sustainable basis, through building strong and
142
sustainable grassroots institutions of the poor. The main features of the NRLM
are to bring each BPL household under SHG net, setting up of dedicated
implementation structure at various levels, enhanced capital subsidy for the
beneficiaries, easy access for multiple doses of credit along with provision of
providing credit to rural BPL from banks at low rate of interest ( introduction
of interest subsidy),
formation and strengthening of people owned
organization such as SHG Federations at various level and upscale the skill
development and placement programmes . For capacity building & training
Rural Self Employment Training institute (RSETIs) in each district of the
country will be set up. Special emphasis will be given for convergence with
programmes related to technology inputs in order to achieve synergies
