  1. PlanPlus A software to strengthen planning at grass roots level

  2. Objective • Facilitates the Decentralized Planning process in Local Language by • Converging the rural and urban plans to generate an integrated district plan • Supporting need/activity based planning rather than scheme-driven • capturing the planning work flow • Converging the flow of funds from different central and state sponsored schemes • Acting as a decision support tool through the use of supporting GIS and Graphs National Informatics Centre

  3. Stakeholders • Central Government Departments • State Government Departments • Urban Local Bodies • Rural Local Bodies • DPCs • Citizens National Informatics Centre

  4. Planning Commission Guideline Ramachandran Committee Report on Decentralized Planning BRGF Guidelines issued by Ministry of Panchayati Raj Mr Raghunandan, JS, MoPR and other senior officials Inputs from Mr. Vijayanandan, Principal Secy.

  7. Suggestion Box • The Gram/Ward Sabha or any planning unit or any individual can express their needs to other planning units. For eg., a GP may suggest its BP to build a link road or a GP may suggest a municipality to build a warehouse • These suggestions are shared in public domain and can be one and all including DPC and the planning units • DPC and the planning units can decide if there is any need to take up the suggested need as a work in any of the Plans National Informatics Centre

  9. Project • Each planning unit begins with the identification of projects • A project is a logical collection of related works, possibly belonging to different sectors • Helps in bringing about sectoral integration and ensures maximum impact of the interventions in different sectors National Informatics Centre

  14. Works • A project may have one or more works (but at least one work) • Work Details • Work Focus Area (sector) • Proposed Asset details • Proposed Location of work • Target Beneficiaries • Unit of work • Cost estimates for each year of the work National Informatics Centre

  17. Asset Specification National Informatics Centre

  18. Cost Estimation National Informatics Centre

  19. Activity/Expenditure Schedule National Informatics Centre

  20. Annual Plan • An annual plan would consist of one or more works from one or more projects • Based on the sector of the work and that of the scheme, the software would automatically show the amount of expected allocation under different schemes. • The Planning unit can allocate funds from different schemes to different works • One work may be allocated funds from more than one scheme, thereby converging the funds of different schemes (if the schemes are for the same sector as that of the work or if the scheme has provision for untied funds) National Informatics Centre

  22. Schemes • The software captures details about the schemes managed by various central and state government departments • Details include inter-alia, • the sector/work area of the scheme • its tied/untied status • Annual releases to planning units etc National Informatics Centre

  24. Converging Funds from different schemes National Informatics Centre

  25. Annual Plan (contd.) • Works may be included or excluded from the plan as per availability of funds • Priority can be set for each work; fund availability is automatically calculated • A higher tier (such as ZP or BP) may co-opt works of a lower tier unit • A Planning unit can create a work which is part of a supra project • The Planning unit would also have access to its developmentand planning profile through GIS maps and graphs • The Planning unit can view plans of other planning units within the same district; this would enable it to take more informed decision about its own plan • The software also informs the planner about fund availability under different schemes under different sectors thereby ensuring maximum utilization of funds National Informatics Centre

  32. Co-option of works • A higher tier planning unit such as a ZP or BP can co-opt works of its lower tier formations • Co-option of works is essentially s suggestion to DPC (and the concerned planning units) that the higher tier can take up the works of the lower tier planning units, possibly to serve the interests of a larger target population and/or if it is more viable economically • The approval or rejection of works would primarily lie with DPC after deliberations with all concerned planning units National Informatics Centre

  33. Supra Projects • Sometimes, two or more planning units are required to collaboratively address an issue that is affecting them. • Each affected unit can include work to address the issue in its Plan • DPC will create a supra project (a dummy project) and link these works to the supra project • DPC can then monitor the supra project to evaluate its successful implementation National Informatics Centre

  34. Technical and Administrative clearance • Once an optimal Plan has been prepared by a planning unit, it gets forwarded for technical and administrative clearance • If any work requires technical or administrative norm clearance, then it is evaluated • The Plan is returned back to the Planning Unit if any work requires modification to meet technical or administrative clearance (for eg., revision of cost estimates) • The Planning Unit must modify as per the clearance requirement and forward it back for clearance • If all works are cleared, the Plan is forwarded to DPC.

  36. Plan Approval by DPC • The DPC can generate sectoral views of the Plan (to be reviewed by sectoral committees) and take decisions (approve, reject, review) on each work included in the Plan • The DPC can either approve a Plan (if all works are approved) or return the Plan to the planning unit for review/modification • The DPC can also take decisions on co-opted works and look at suggestions of planning units • The DPC would also have access to the development profile of the planning unit through various maps and graphs • The software also provides graphs to get visual view of the investment/allocation profile of the Plan National Informatics Centre

  39. Identifying Priority Sector for the district • DPC can identify priority sector for the district based on its development profile • Once Plans are prepared, DPC can see how well the district priorities have been addressed by the Plan National Informatics Centre

  41. Analytical support using GIS • Census villages have already been mapped to the panchayats of all BRGF districts • Boundaries of Gram Panchayats in BRGF districts are now available • Census data can be overlaid on top of these maps and used to analyze the planning unit’s development profile • Work is going on for the remaining districts National Informatics Centre

  42. Reports • Annual Plan • History of the Plan as it goes through the cycle of revisions • Status of approval of different works • Expected Fund utilization • Sectoral Plan • Scheme Plan • Sectorwise Scheme plan and vice versa • Sectorwise BRGF allocation • Gap filling by BRGF National Informatics Centre

  43. Panchayats 250 Zilla Parishads 3151 Intermediate Panchayats 1,08,924 Gram Panchayats Municipalities 38 Corporations 584 Municipalities 566 Town Areas 148 Notified Area Councils Pilots proposed 27 States National Informatics Centre

  44. Integration with other PRI solutions • Can be integrated with • Survey databases • the accounting software (PRIASoft) for auditing purposes • Scheme monitoring systems • National Panchayat Portal (http://Panchayat.gov.in ) which contains dynamic portals of all PRIs in local language • Will provide an end-to-end solution for district Planning across the country National Informatics Centre
