  1. BRGF • Concerns • Planning • Strategies • A.P.’s initiative K.CHANDRAMOULI, IAS AMR-APARD

  2. Participation : • Much publicized • Much mis / loosely used • Its an instrument designed for smooth delivery of services • Involves unreached / excluded • Provides “Voice” & “Face” • Community – main actors • Trusts that extraordinary capabilities in ordinary people • Participation • political • developmental • Non-negotiable • “We have done it ourselves” • - Lao Tsu

  3. OWN THE PLAN • ORDERLY GROWTH IS PLAN - DISORDERLY GROWTH IS A PAIN • HARNESSING AVAILABLE RESOURCES IN A PLANNED MANNER MAXIMISES POSITIVE GROWTH • You will get only available resources - • But not unlimited resources • 4) PLAN SHOULD BE IMPLEMENTABLE • Plan can be dreaming – • But should not be day nightmarish

  4. TIMELINESS FOR PREPARATION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF PLAN • Even jasmines smell rotten after their time. • DO NOT TRY TO BE THE WISEST MAN TO GIFT A PLAN – STAKE HOLDERS ARE WISER THAN YOU • 7) DON’T BE A MISER DISTRIBUTE THE OWNERSHIP OF THE PLAN – LET ALL THE STAKE HOLDERS OWN THE PLAN • 8) DO NOT FORGET TO PURCHASE HORSE SHOES AFTER BUYING THE HORSE FILLING CRITICAL GAPS IS WHAT BRGF IS ABOUT

  5. 9) PRIORITISATION IS THE CLUE – IT IS ELEMENTARY • LEAST DEVELOPED SHOULD GET MOST PRIORITY IN PLANNING. • Special Component Plan • Tribal Sub-plan • Are Essential in District Plan • NETWORKING NEEDS AND ALL AVAILABLE FUNDS • IS IMPORTANT. • Otherwise you find your net full of holes.

  6. 12) ALL PASSAGES HAVE LEAKAGES - PLUG THEM • Have field verifications • social audit • reviews etc. • THIRD EYE REVEALS MORE • Have an independent monitoring agency to assess implementation of your plans.

  7. 14) PUBLICISE AND FLOURISH - MAY BE ANONIMITY A GOOD TRAIT OF A BUREAUCRAT - BUT NOT OF A GOOD PLANNER. • Give wide publicity to your plan before preparation and after finalization – Meetings workshops involving VOs and Community. • 15) FIX THE AGENCIES FOR EXECUTION OF WORKS – FOLLOW FINANCIAL DISCIPLINE – CORNER STONE OF DECENTRALISED PLANING • Activity mapping helps

  8. Setting Goals is an important step in Planning exercise • Where do we (District, Mandal, GP) want to be in next five years; ten years; twenty years ? • What is the rate of literacy in our District / Mandal / GP will be ? • b) What will be the number of our children in Schools ? • c) All deliveries will be in institutions or by trained workers ? • d) Where will our MMR stand ?

  9. e) Where will our CMR stands ? • f) Will all unemployed get employment ? • 1) Wage earning or self employment. • 2) All the unemployed will be trained in various skills • g) All people will have access to potable Drinking Water ? • h) All the houses have drainage facility ? • All the habitations have road connectivity ? • j) Can we have food security for all, including destitutes? • k) Can we establish rural business hubs ? • l) All houses have electricity ?

  10. We may use the millennium development Goals as a basis191 United Nations member states pledged in 2000 to meet the following eight goals by 2015:

  18. IDENTIFY YOUR FELT NEEDS • Safe drinking water • Nutrition for children & mothers • Playground & teachers • Dispensary/Hospital with building, equipment, medicines & doctors • Loan for the self employed • Training in trades/vocations • Roads, electricity, markets • If none of these - you could have an alternative set of needs in your district!

  19. PRIORITISATION OF FELT NEEDS • What we will take up first ? What is the most urgent ? • What would help the poor in the village ? • What would help the women & children in the village ? • What will benefit the most number of people ? • If you have to make a choice, won’t you give priority to the work that helps the poorest and the weakest in the village ?

  20. What are the available resources? • People • Know How • Sramdan • Natural resources • Man made assets • Funds • Own funds • Devolved funds • Funds under various schemes • Contribution from the public / NRIs etc.

  21. Natural resources are equally important… • What is the nature of the land in the district? How much is under agriculture? How much is irrigated? How much is under forest? Mining? • What is the state of agriculture? Major crops? Scope for horticulture, animal husbandry, fisheries, fuel plantation? • What is the extent of availability of water? How much is being used for drinking water, agriculture, industry and other purposes? • How do we protect and sustain the natural resources?

  22. Manmade resources come next .. • What is the government infrastructure available? • What are the private assets available? • You could make a checklist - Tanks, handpumps, schools, dispensaries, hospitals, roads, drains, veterinary dispensaries, cottage- small-scale industry, ITI, godowns, cold storages etc. • It is a good idea to complete asset registers for all Panchayats and departments! • Can you mark this on a district map? You can use the NIC to help out.

  23. And last but not the least – the financial resources • What are the programmes in operation in your district and how much money is available under each? • Central Plan funds, • State plan funds, • Central finance Commission grants, • State finance commission grants, • Your own resources, through taxes and user charges. • Do not forget salaries and maintenance expenditure --- they are equally important.
