CHAPTER-II Outcome Budget 2014-2015 Statement (Plan & Non Plan)

The exercise is primarily meant for converting financial outlays into measurable and monitorable outcome. It is a performance measurement tool that helps in better service delivery, decision making, evaluating programme performance and results & 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”. The Scheme-wise details for Outcome Budget 2014-15are indicated in the attached Statement.

CHAPTER-III Reform Measures and Policy Initiatives Change in design and delivery mechanism of existing schemes

The following are the components of the new state plan schemes “Increasing Green cover in the State’ is the new components introduced during 2013-14. A) Agro-Forestry: This new scheme introduced during the year 2013-14. The objective of the scheme is to increase the tree cover outside forests in agricultural land. Under the aegis of the scheme, farmers will get their day to day requirement of fuel wood & fodder from trees planted in their agricultural land and at the same time agricultural land will be enriched with humus. The factors like diversified agro-edaphic conditions, rich flora and fauna, wide range of land holdings, various socio-cultural groups and people with multiple economic strata have led to evolve a variety of agro forestry systems and practices. B) Conservation of Sacred Groves: The Sacred Groves are surviving pieces of natural climax vegetation in Odisha which are rare and important flora and fauna preserved traditionally by the local people. The utility and importance of Sacred Groves can broadly be grouped into two categories i.e. ecological and environment importance and socio-cultural importance. These groves are protected through religious beliefs by the people. Groves harbor variety of wild animals. It is necessary to inventorise such sacred groves in Odisha in order to preserve them for Socio- cultural and Ecological & Environmental point of view. The activities undertaken are documentation of sacred groves, providing signages and wherever land is available adjoining the sacred groves, plantation of indigenous species as per the requirement of the community. During the year 2013-14, measures taken for conservation of 200 sacred groves. It is proposed to take up further 200 sacred Groves during 2014-15. C) Popularization of Fuel Efficient Chullahs: This scheme was introduced in 2013-14. The objective of scheme is to reduce pressure on forest and high dependency of local people on forest produce, by popularizing use of a low cost locally made indigenous fuel efficient smokeless chullah in the forest fringe villages. During 2013-14, 1000 nos. fuel efficient chullahs are installed. During 2014-15, it is proposed to supply 1,000 nos. fuel efficient chullahs to beneficiaries inhabiting in the forest fringe villages covered under 36 Territorial & WL Divisions to reduce consumption of fire-woods. D) National Afforestation Programme: This Scheme is operated by National Afforestation and Eco-Development Board (NAEB), Ministry of Environment and Forests as a Centrally Sponsored Scheme with 100% central funding. The objectives of the scheme are:

[[ 62 ]] O U T C O M E B U D G E T – 2 0 1 4 - 1 5

· Sustainable development and management of forest resources with local people’s participation, with focus on improvement in livelihoods of forest-fringe communities, especially the poor. · Increase and/or improve Forest and Tree Cover for rehabilitation of degraded forests and other areas in participatory forest management processes. E) Green India Mission: Green India Mission was initiated by Govt of India during the Financial year 2011-12. It is one of the 8 missions under the National Action Plan on Climate change ( NAPCC). The mission aims to respond to this by a combination of adaptation and mitigation measures to help 1. Enhance carbon sinks in sustainably managed forests and other eco-systems. 2. Adaptation of vulnerable species/ eco-systems to the changing climate. 3. Adaptation of forest dependent communities. Wildlife

For effective control of elephant depredation many steps have been taken to check it.Important steps are posting of Research Fellows and Elephant Inspectors at Circle level, creation of more no. of anti depredation squad, specialized study of elephant corridors and preparation of its management plan etc. To reduce the hardship of people affected by wildlife depredation, rate of Compassionate grant has been enhanced with effect from 8th April, 2011 and 17.12.2012. For protection of Tigers in Similipal, a scheme for creation of ‘Special Tiger Protection Force’ and its funding has been approved by Govt. of India. Meeting of state Board for Wildlife has been convened .On its recommendations nos. of initiative has been taken for protection and conservation of wildlife. A new scheme such as Management & Development of Elephant Corridor has been launched with a financial outlay of TRs 500.00 from 2012-13 onwards with broad objective of consolidation & improvement of corridor and its biodiversity. Environment 1. Conservation of natural resources and Eco-system (National Plan for conservation of Aquatic Eco-system) Government of India have introduced a new scheme named Conservation of natural resources and Eco- system (National Plan for conservation of Aquatic Eco-system)to restore and conserve the urban and semi- urban lakes of the country which are degraded due to waste water discharged into the lake and other unique fresh water eco system through an eco system approach. Under this scheme 8 numbers of project proposals with detailed project report have been submitted to MoEF, Government of India for conservation and management of polluted and degraded lakes in urban and semi urban areas. 2. Establishment of Climate Change Cell Forest & Environment Department have prepared a State Climate Change Action Plan and forwarded to Govt. of India for their approval and consideration for implementation of different action programs envisaged to combat climate change. States Govt. have also constituted a Climate Change Cell in Forest & Environment Department. The Cell will be made functional for coordinating with different stake-holders, international funding organizations. A report on progress monitoringof SAPCC 2014 is under preparation and going to be released shortly.

CHAPTER-VI Gender and SC/ST Budgeting

Gender Budgeting: The schemes implemented for development of forest sector benefit theCommunity as a whole. Therefore, Gender Component is not captured. SC/ST Budgeting Tribal Sub-Plan: As per 2001 census, the tribal population constitutes 22.13% of the total population of the State. About 95% reside in rural areas that are generally in a state of social, educational and economic backwardness. The objective of TSP is to uplift the socio-economic status of the Tribal community. The Tribal community is mainly stakeholders of the forest sector in respect of preservation and protection of the forest. The State Government accord priority for bringing additional economic coverage in tribal areas. This would enhance the standard of living of the tribal community vis-à-vis protection and development of the forest sector. SC Sub-Plan: There are 93 scheduled castes (SC) communities in the state. As per 2001 census, the SC population constitutes 16.53% of the total population of the State. About 88% reside in rural areas. For theup- liftment of both SC & ST community, the outlay under SCP & TASP during 2013-14 under different schemes is given in the table below. TABLE-1 FOREST SECTOR (STATE PLAN) (` in TRs)
