  • Performance Audit
    Chapter-III Performance Audit CHAPTER III PERFORMANCE AUDITS This chapter contains performance audits on Working of Lucknow Development Authority, Rural Health Sector, IT audit on computerization of land records and Computerization of treasuries and three long paragraphs on Ardh Kumbh Mela, Regional Diagnostic Centre and Kanya Vidya Dhan Yojna. HOUSING AND URBAN PLANNING DEPARTMENT 3.1 Working of Lucknow Development Authority Lucknow Development Authority was constituted (September 1974) under the Uttar Pradesh Urban Planning and Development Act, 1973 for planned development of the city. Performance audit of its working revealed delay in preparation of Master Plan, poor financial management and deficiencies in implementation of master plans/schemes. The scope of audit was however, limited due to non-production of records. Highlights Annual accounts of the LDA were neither certified by the Statutory Auditor nor submitted to the Government. At the end of March 2006, discrepancy of Rs. 17.77 crore between the books of LDA and various banks had not been reconciled. (Paragraphs 3.1.6.2 & 3.1.6.3) Expenditure exceeded budget provision by 150 per cent to 239 per cent during 2003-06 indicating defective budget making process in the Authority. (Paragraph 3.1.6.4) Advances aggregating Rs. 194.33 crore given to the officials of LDA and Government departments/ agencies remained unadjusted for the last 1 to 20 years though temporary advances given to officials were to be adjusted within one month. (Paragraph 3.1.6.6) Non-transfer of 10 completed housing schemes by the LDA to Nagar Nigam resulted in unnecessary expenditure of Rs.

  • Adi-Dharam and Jharkhandi Culture: Understanding Adivasi Existence In
    Adi-dharam and Jharkhandi Culture: Understanding Adivasi existence in relation to the environmental identity and environmental heritage of Adivasi-Moolvasi communities of Jharkhand. Sudeshna Dutta1 Abstract: Why do the Adivasis of Jharkhand resent the word Development? Since the Koel-Karo movement (Which went on for about thirty-five years) the Adivasis demanded ideal rehabilitation for them. The government officials or policymakers have so far failed to understand the meaning of the ‘ideal rehabilitation.’ In this paper, I argue that without considering the environmental identity of the Adivasi communities, it is impossible to understand the Adivasi interpretation of rehabilitation and the rationals behind such understanding. Adivasi environmental identity, I argue, has a close connection with the land, water, forest. Adivasi culture is closely related to the three elements of nature. Adivasi way of living or Adivasi way of viewing life is practice-oriented and cannot sustain without them. In this paper, I have tried to engage with the three main festivals of Jharkhand to show how the festivals carry the ethos of adi-dharam. The philosophy of Adi-dharam is about maintaining harmonious relationships with the other elements of the ecology. The rationale behind maintaining such relationship is acknowledging the contribution of others in keeping the food-security and food-sovereignty of the community. The structure of the relationships shapes the environmental identity of the Adivasi existence. The rehabilitation programmes, I conclude, need to incorporate the Adivasi interpretation of existence to protect the interest of the Adivasis. Keywords: Environmental Identity, Environmental Heritage, Adi-dharam 1 Sudeshna Dutta is a PhD fellow in the Department of Comparative Literature, Jadavpur University.

This report is not an attempt to resurrect the entire event with its varied discourses, although some record is maintained of chronology of speakers. It focuses more on comments /observations made in response to the terms of reference of the commission and only partly on some of the other views expressed. It also places for consideration some recommendations related to the possible follow up. 82 people participated in the event (See Appendix – 1 for the list of participants and programme) TERMS OF REFERENCE OF THE COMMISSION AND OBJECTIVES OF THE WORKSHOP The terms of reference of the National Commission for Religious and Linguistic Minorities were : (a) To suggest criteria for identification of socially and economically backward sections among religious and linguistic minorities.

  • Report on Women and Water
    SUMMARY Water has become the most commercial product of the 21st century. This may sound bizarre, but true. In fact, what water is to the 21st century, oil was to the 20th century. The stress on the multiple water resources is a result of a multitude of factors. On the one hand, the rapidly rising population and changing lifestyles have increased the need for fresh water. On the other hand, intense competitions among users-agriculture, industry and domestic sector is pushing the ground water table deeper. To get a bucket of drinking water is a struggle for most women in the country. The virtually dry and dead water resources have lead to acute water scarcity, affecting the socio- economic condition of the society. The drought conditions have pushed villagers to move to cities in search of jobs. Whereas women and girls are trudging still further. This time lost in fetching water can very well translate into financial gains, leading to a better life for the family. If opportunity costs were taken into account, it would be clear that in most rural areas, households are paying far more for water supply than the often-normal rates charged in urban areas. Also if this cost of fetching water which is almost equivalent to 150 million women day each year, is covered into a loss for the national exchequer it translates into a whopping 10 billion rupees per year The government has accorded the highest priority to rural drinking water for ensuring universal access as a part of policy framework to achieve the goal of reaching the unreached.

    INTRODUCTION 1 ______________________________________________________________________________________ 1.1 Introduction Urbanisation and economic development have caused rapid city expansion in size and structure. The urban structure is becoming increasingly complex, heterogeneous and irregular in shape. The development spreads over to the peri-urban areas resulting in degradation of natural and rural land over time. This process will continue further, if remain unchecked through proper planning measures. This will adversely impact the quality of life of both urban and peri-urban dwellers. Although the urban sprawl in a developing city cannot be stopped, however; a remedy to this issue can be devised through strict zoning regulations based on land suitability and carrying capacity, which allows land use to be channelled towards more sustainable uses. In this context, research study entitled Dynamics of Peri-Urban Areas: Prospects and Challenges of Sustainable Development - A case study of Peri-Urban area of Lucknow is undertaken and peri-urban areas are illustrated at Map 1. Lucknow has been divided into two parts based on growing urbanisation i.e. old Lucknow and New Lucknow. The peri-urban area denote to a grey area which is neither entirely urban nor purely rural in the traditional sense. Sometimes, Peri-urban area is Photo 1: A bird’s eye view of Central area of Lucknow described as physically defined transitional area bordering a city, characterised with mix of both rural and urban form and functions. Peri-urban areas are ‘those areas surrounding the cities within a daily commuting reach of the city core. In some parts of Asia, these regions can stretch for up to thirty kilometres away from city core’.
