  • Atal Pension Yojana (APY)1 – Details of the Scheme

    Atal Pension Yojana (APY)1 – Details of the Scheme

    Atal Pension Yojana (APY) 1 – Details of the Scheme 1. Introduction 1.1 The Government of India is extremely concerned about the old age income security of the working poor and is focused on encouraging and enabling them to join the National Pension System (NPS). To address the longevity risks among the workers in unorganised sector and to encourage the workers in unorganised sector to voluntarily save for their retirement, who constitute 88% of the total labour force of 47.29 crore as per the 66th Round of NSSO Survey of 2011-12, but do not have any formal pension provision, the Government had started the Swavalamban Scheme in 2010-11. However, coverage under Swavalamban Scheme is inadequate mainly due to lack of guaranteed pension benefits at the age of 60. 1.2 The Government announced the introduction of universal social security schemes in the Insurance and Pension sectors for all Indians, specially the poor and the under-privileged, in the Budget for the year 2015-16. Therefore, it has been announced that the Government will launch the Atal Pension Yojana (APY), which will provide a defined pension, depending on the contribution, and its period. The APY will be focussed on all citizens in the unorganised sector, who join the National Pension System (NPS) administered by the Pension Fund Regulatory and Development Authority (PFRDA). Under the APY, the subscribers would receive the fixed minimum pension of Rs. 1000 per month, Rs. 2000 per month, Rs. 3000 per month, Rs. 4000 per month, Rs. 5000 per month, at the age of 60 years, depending on their contributions, which itself would be based on the age of joining the APY.

    Output Outcome Framework for Schemes 2018-2019 Demand No

    PREFACE Major Expenditure Reforms have been undertaken by the Government over the last two-three years. This not only includes simplification of appraisal and approval processes, but also structural changes in the process of budget making itself like doing away with Plan Non-plan distinction. As a result,the cost-centres are being treated in an integrated manner, within only the statutory revenue capital framework. This enables another major structural reform, which is to bring the public schemes and projects under a monitorable Output-Outcome framework. Since 2017-18, in addition to the financial outlays of schemes of the Ministries being indicated in the Budget document, the expected outputs and outcomes of the schemes were also prepared and presented separately by each Ministry in the form of Outcome Budget. T h e s e Outlays, Outputs and Outcomes are being presented to the Parliament in measurable terms, bringing-in greater accountability for the agencies involved in the execution of government schemes and projects. utlay is the amount that is provided for a given scheme or project in the Budget; while Outpu refers to the direct and measurable product of program activities, often expressed in physical terms or units. utcome are the collective results or qualitative improvements brought about in the delivery of these services, often expressed in terms of improvements over ex-ante or earlier indicators and benchmarks. From the last year s budget, it was decided that the output and outcomes of the schemes of 68 Ministries and Departments would be available along with the financial outlays as a part of the Budget documents, so that clearly defined objectives and goals for each scheme can be seen by all.
  • Capacity Building

    Capacity Building

    Kudumbashree Writeshop K B Sudheer, SMM (SM & ID) CAPACITY BUILDING What is Capacity Building? Capacity Building (CB) is a process by which individuals and organizations obtain, improve, and retain the skills, knowledge, tools, equipment and other resources needed to do their jobs competently or to a greater capacity (larger scale, larger audience, larger impact, etc). Capacity building is a conceptual approach to social, behavioural change and leads to infrastructure development. It simultaneously focuses on understanding the obstacles that inhibit people, governments, or any non-governmental organizations (NGOs), from realizing their development goals and enhancing the abilities that will allow them to achieve measurable and sustainable results. Human resources in any organizations are a key determinant of its success and are often the “face” of the organization to its stakeholders and collaborators. Maintaining a well-trained, well-qualified human resource is a critical function of the management. Kudumbashree also believes in capacity building of its staff for strengthening the skills, competencies and abilities of people and communities in the organisation so they can achieve their goals and potentially overcome the causes of their exclusion and suffering. Organizational capacity building is used by Kudumbashree to guide their organisational development and also personal growth of its personnel. Capacity Building helps in methods of CB. • Ensuring an organization’s clarity of mission – this involves evaluating an organization’s goals and how 1. Technology-based Learning well those goals are understood throughout the Common methods of learning via technology include: organization. • Basic PC-based programs • Developing an organization’s leadership – • Interactive multimedia - using a PC-based CD- this involves evaluating how empowered the ROM organization’s leadership is; how well the leadership • Interactive video - using a computer in conjunction encourages experimentation, self-reflection, with a VCR changes in team structures and approaches.

    Original Research Paper Volume - 7 | Issue - 8 | August - 2017 | ISSN - 2249-555X | IF : 4.894 | IC Value : 79.96 Information Technology DBT IMPLEMENTATION FOR PDS PUDUCHERRY UT : TECHNOLOGICAL CONVERGENCE, ISSUES AND ITS IMPLEMENTATION - A CASE STUDY V. Gopi Technical Director & Scientist 'E', Puducherry UT , National Informatics Centre, Swaminathan Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology, Government of India Dr. Dev Ratna State Informatics Officer & Scientist 'F', Puducherry UT, National Informatics Centre, Shukla Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology, Government of India ABSTRACT The Direct benefit Transfer (DBT) system launched by Government of India to ensure that benefits go to individuals' bank accounts electronically, minimizing multiple layers involved in fund flow thereby reducing delay in payment, ensuring accurate targeting of the beneficiary and curbing pilferage and duplication. In Public Distribution System, the system has been implemented to beneficiaries identified under National Food Security Act, 2013 in Union Territories of Government of India for providing Food security. Puducherry UT, with 1.64 lakhs families has been operational since September 2015. Although the small size of the U.T., the geographical locations of the four regions among the three Southern States of Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh in India with three different spoken languages poses a real challenge for planners. Particularly, in Public distribution system, there are many challenges due to various issues in storage and transshipment points of these regions like theft en route, multiple handling, poor quality of gunny bags as well as the loss of moisture, insect-pest and disease infestation, spillage of grain from gunny bags etc. On the other hand, the banking industry has shown tremendous growth in volume and complexity during the last few decades.
  • Procedure for Generating Jeevan Pramaan / Digital Life Certificate (Ver1.0)

    Procedure for Generating Jeevan Pramaan / Digital Life Certificate (Ver1.0)

    Procedure for Generating Jeevan Pramaan / Digital Life Certificate (ver1.0) 1. What is Jeevan Pramaan (JP): There are more than one crore pensioners in the country including pensioners from Central Government and Defense personnel. These pensioners get their due pension through Pension Disbursing Authorities (PDAs) such as the banks, the post offices etc. Pensioners are required to furnish a “Life Certificate” to these PDAs in November every year either by presenting themselves personally or by delivering a life certificate in the prescribed format. The requirement to produce this certificate causes huge hardships particularly to the aged and or / infirm pensioners. Launched by Hon. PM Shri. Narendra Modi ji, on 10th Nov 2014, Digital Life Certificate for Pensioners Scheme of the Government of India, known as the Jeevan Pramaan (JP) seeks to address this very problem by digitizing the whole process of securing the life certificate. It enables the pensioner to generate a digital life certificate using a software application and secure Aadhaar based Biometric Authentication System. The Digital Life Certificate (DLC) so generated is stored online & can be accessed by the pensioner & the Pension Disbursing Agency as and when required by them. 2. Components of the J P/ Digital Life Certificate There are three basic components of the Jeevan Pramaan /Digital Life Certificate: A. The Pension Sanctioning Authority (PSAs) It is the authority which approves and sanctions the pension of an individual. The Pension is to be delivered in the Pension Account specified in the Pension Payment Order (PPO). B. The Pension Disbursing Agency (PDAs) The Pension Disbursing Agencies process the DLC of the pensioners.
