However, the performance has been uneven across sectors and a number of people have been excluded from benefits of this process. Geographically too, the disparities are increasing and leading to concentrated pockets of deprivation across the country. At the same time, consensus is emerging across the world, that a one size fit all development policy will not engender development universally. There is a need for context specific policies. The success of policy and programme interventions too, is heavily dependent on the settings in which these are implemented. The present exercise was undertaken in recognition of the fact that an identical developmental strategy for all the states, regardless of the specific circumstances and binding constraints is unlikely to be effective. The Planning Commission took the important initiative of sponsoring the preparation of State Development Reports during the 10th Plan. The report has been prepared with the help of reputed national level institutions to ensure the necessary analytical rigour required. The main objective was to produce a high quality document, focusing on development and related issues at both the micro and macro levels. The Uttarakhand Development Report does address these issues and highlights aspects crucial for the State’s development needs in the coming years. I hope its publication will stimulate debate on growth strategies appropriate for Uttarakhand and it will be of immense benefit to practitioners, administrators, academicians and the larger public in general. ;kstuk Hkou] laln ekxZ] ubZ fnYyh & 110001 nwjHkki % 23096677] 23096688 QSDl % 23096699 Yojana Bhawan, Parliament Street, New Delhi : 110001 Phones: 23096677, 23096688 Fax : 23096699 E-mail : [email protected] 8 UTTARAKHAND DEVELOPMENT REPORT I am sure the road map indicated in the report will create a broader awareness of the critical policy issues facing the state, result in better policies and enable the State to move on a higher growth trajectory on a sustainable basis. (Montek Singh Ahluwalia) Major General Secretariat Annexe, Bhuwan Chandra Khanduri, DEHRADUN - 248001 AVSM (Retd.) CHIEF MINISTER, UTTARAKHAND Message I am pleased to introduce ‘Uttarakhand Development Report’ prepared at the behest of Planning Commission, Government of India. We appreciate and acknowledge the efforts of the Planning Commission and the Partner Agency, the National Council of Applied Economic Research, New Delhi for producing such a comprehensive document. The National Council of Applied Economic Research has documented in great detail development story of the State since its formation, recognising its progressive outlook and achievements. The macroeconomic analysis relating to various aspects of economic development of the State presented in the report will go a long way in choosing proper strategies and initiating corrective measures in the process of development. The recommendations for development of the various sectors are based on an in-depth analysis. The State has been generally acclaimed for its achievements in social development and recent initiatives of the State Government in meeting fiscal discipline. The report has brought out critical issues the state is facing. It has also sought to present solutions. The State Government is committed to ensure an accelerated development of the State, and in this process, the recommendations made in the report would be very valuable. I take this opportunity to thank the members of the Core Group in the Planning Commissions of Government of India for extending technical and financial support for the preparations of this report. I believe that this document which is an outcome of sincere and continuous efforts of scholars, experts and institutions, will provide valuable information for policy planning, academic research and governance. I appreciate the endeavour.

These SDRs are an attempt to compile quality reference documents on the profile and strategy for accelerating the pace of development in respective states. The Uttarakhand Development Report has been prepared by Planning Commission with the assistance of National Council of Applied Economic Research (NCAER) in partnership with the Govt. of Uttarakhand. Some initial material was prepared by partner agencies such as Dhan Foundation, Wapcos, Development Corporation for Handicrafts, IDFC, IHD, NCAEPR, NIPFP, etc., whose contribution is also acknowledged. A core committee review the major issues and helped chalk out the scope and coverage of the SDR for Uttarakhand. This report will serve as a resource material not only for the central and state government but also for the non-governmental organisations working for Uttarakhand. I would sincerely like to thank everyone from the Planning Commission and to record my appreciation of the work done by various partner agencies for their effective contribution in preparing the report. The efforts made by NCAER in coordinating and preparing the final report deserves to be specially noted. I am thankful to the Govt. of Uttarakhand for rendering full cooperation and support to the partner agencies involved in preparation of the report. The efforts done by State Plan Advisor, Shri Harish Chandra in liaising with State Govt. and partner agencies is noteworthy. I look forward to Uttarakhand, with its vigour and enterprise, attaining the high level of prosperity and human welfare which will follow in the wake of its realising its true potential.

  • Strengthening of Panchayats in India: Comparing Devolution Across States
    Strengthening of Panchayats in India: Comparing Devolution across States Empirical Assessment - 2012-13 April 2013 Sponsored by Ministry of Panchayati Raj Government of India The Indian Institute of Public Administration New Delhi Strengthening of Panchayats in India: Comparing Devolution across States Empirical Assessment - 2012-13 V N Alok The Indian Institute of Public Administration New Delhi Foreword It is the twentieth anniversary of the 73rd Amendment of the Constitution, whereby Panchayats were given constitu- tional status.While the mandatory provisions of the Constitution regarding elections and reservations are adhered to in all States, the devolution of powers and resources to Panchayats from the States has been highly uneven across States. To motivate States to devolve powers and responsibilities to Panchayats and put in place an accountability frame- work, the Ministry of Panchayati Raj, Government of India, ranks States and provides incentives under the Panchayat Empowerment and Accountability Scheme (PEAIS) in accordance with their performance as measured on a Devo- lution Index computed by an independent institution. The Indian Institute of Public Administration (IIPA) has been conducting the study and constructing the index while continuously refining the same for the last four years. In addition to indices on the cumulative performance of States with respect to the devolution of powers and resources to Panchayats, an index on their incremental performance,i.e. initiatives taken during the year, was introduced in the year 2010-11. Since then, States have been awarded for their recent exemplary initiatives in strengthening Panchayats. The Report on"Strengthening of Panchayats in India: Comparing Devolution across States - Empirical Assessment 2012-13" further refines the Devolution Index by adding two more pillars of performance i.e.

  • Third State Finance Commission
    CHAPTER 5 STATUS OF DECENTRALISED GOVERNANCE A. Brief Historical Overview 5.1 Modern local government in India has a rather long history extending to the earliest years of British rule under the East India Company, when a municipal body was established in Madras in 1688 followed soon thereafter by Bombay and Calcutta. These earliest corporations neither had any legislative backing, having been set up on the instructions of the Directors of the East India Company with the consent of the Crown, nor were they representative bodies as they consisted entirely of nominated members from among the non-native population. They were set up mainly to provide sanitation in the Presidency towns, but they did not prove to be very effective in this task. Act X of 1842 was the first formal measure for the establishment of municipal bodies. Though applicable only to the Bengal Presidency it remained inoperative there. Town Committees under it were, however, set up in the two hill stations of Mussoorie and Nainital in 1842 and 1845 respectively, on the request of European residents. Uttarakhand thus has the distinction of having some of the earliest municipalities established in the country, outside the Presidency towns. Their record too was not very encouraging. When the Government of India passed Act XXVI in 1850 the municipal bodies of Mussoorie and Nainital were reconstituted under it. 5.2 The motivation for establishing municipal bodies in the initial years was not any commitment to local government on the part of the British. Rather it was inspired by the desire to raise money from the local population for provision of civic services.

The State, despite constraints of nascence has made rapid progress and registered one of the highest growth rate in the GSDP amongst the States of the country during the last one decade and now poised to consolidate and sustain the progress during the next Five Year Plan i.e. the 12^h Five Year Plan. While starting a new five year plan it is imperative as a first step to analyze the past performance of the economy; the broad issues that the Plan will focus on; and the underlying philosophy of the Plan. It is an opportunity to ponder upon the past performance and find out the strength and weakness of the State's economy and chalk out the goals and strategies to be adopted during the next five years.
