Early in O^rtober 1958, the Planning Commission indicated to the State Government that the procedure followed in the year 1958-59 may be followed for the preparation of the State Development Plans for 1959-60 also. They haye also indicated that in preparing the i State Government’s proposals for the year 1959-60, it may assume that the quantum of Central assistance may be of about the same order as in 1958-59 which together with the State’s resources will most likely (determine the size of the Plan for the year 1959-60. In jpreparing the Plan for 1959-60, the State Government was requested to ko£p in view the following considera- Itions: — (i) It is of the utmost importance to concentrate iin the next annual Plan on expediting the completion (of schemes in hand, on taking all steps needed for securing the' full benefits of assets and resources, ialready created, and on improving efficiency in the execution of various programmes; (ii) Projects on which comparatively small out- liays have been incurred should be considered only after adequate provision has been made for projects on which substantial outlays have been incurred and for projects v/hich can be speeded up, if necessary, so as to provide benefits during the Plan period; (iii) Schemes intended to ensure the utilisation of the benefits of large and medium irrigation works which have been already undertaken and schemes intended to intensify agricultural production should be given first priority. In particular, special attention s.hould be given to the development of organic and green manures, minor irrigation, supply of improved sieed, organisation of co-operative credit and market ing, building up of local village institutions and putting local resources, including manpower to the fiullest use possible; (iv) No new scheme involving foreign exchange expenditure is to be included in the Plan; VI (v) If there are any development schemes at present being implemented outside the State Plan, these should be brought within the annual Plan; (vi) There must be the utmost economy in the execution of schemes involving construction and, wherever possible, construction works should be deferred; and (viz) Non-plan_ expenditure of a non-develop- mental character should be pruned as far as possible. Accordingly, proposals were called for. from the Heads of Departments and the Departments of the Secretariat for formulating the Plan for the year 1959-60 on the basis that,the provision for the year 1959-60 may be within 50 per cent of the balance allot ment available from out of the Five-Yea;r provision. At the co-ordination meeting of the Heads of Departments and Secretaries to Government held on 15th October 1958 a tentative decision was taken to fix the Plan at Rs, 45.61 crores and the Heads of Departments were asked to send their proposals accordingly. The pro posals received from the Heads of Departments, however amounted to as much as Rs. 47.77 crores but in the special co-ordination meeting held on 12th November 1958 it was reduced to Rs. 44.42 crores. This was considered by the Council of Ministers on 24th November 1958, when it was decided that the out lay for the year 1959-60 should be of the order of Rs. 44.92 crores including some modifications suggested by the Council of Ministers. To implement a Plan of this size, the State Government was prepared to raise resources to the extent of about Rs. 18.00 crores towards its share of the cost. The proposals of the State Government were discussed with the Planning Commission and the various Central Ministries in December 1958 and the outlay for the current year was fixed at Rs. 37.66 crores. But having regard to the State’s capacity to utilise the amount provided in the Plan, the need for avoiding a huge backlog in the last year of the Plan etc., the^State Government have decided to implement a Pl'an of the order of Rs. 42.04 crores and accordingly the budget estimates for the year 1959-60 have provided Rs. 42.04 crores for the Plan schemes. Vll This is the fourth in the series of publications of Annual Plans of this State and furnishes particulars of the Plan schemes included in the Plan of Rs. 42.04 crores. Part I of the book deals with an outline of the fourth year’s programme including the financial resources^ for the Plan while Part II deals with the detailed description of each scheme together with the targets proposed to ,be achieved. An attempt has also been made to indicate in brief the achievements between 1956-57 and 1958-59 in the Statements at the end of each Chapter in Part II. Part III 'contains statistical appendices, It is hoped that this publication would serve as a reference guide to all those intimately connected with the implementation oi the current year’s programme. Any suggestions to improve the usefulness of this publication will be welcome and may be addressed to the Deputy Secretary in the Planning and Develop ment Department. C.

Part I GENERAL ♦so—I 450—1* CHAPTER I AN OUTLINE OF THE FOURTH YEAR PRO GRAMME OF THE SECOND PLAN The outlay during the fourth year of the Second PMan was fixed at Rs. 37.66 crores after discussions by tlhe officers of the State Government with those in the P^lanning Commission and the Central Ministries. But tlhe State Government after considering the varigus aispects and after a good deal of discussion in the State Aidvisory Committee on Planning and Development de- ciided to increase the outlay during the current year to Rls. 42.03 crores. The main considerations for this imcreased outlay are : (i) unless the outlay during the current year is emhanced there will be a huge back log during the last y(ear of the Second Plan ; (ii) the State’s Administrative Machinery has been smfficiently geared up to the task of spending this increas ed provision ; (Hi) there is absolute need to fully utilise the re sources already created ; and (iv) the State’s resources are also adequate to innplement a plan of this size. The enhanced allocations made for each head of dtevelopment can be seen from Statement 1. I The proposed outlay during the current year is the lairgest so far and exceeds by about Rs. 12 and 7 crores the original and revised outlay during the previous year. Tlhe ,provisions made during the first 4 years of the Se cond Plan can be seen from Statement 2. It will be seen that the outlay on all heads of develop- mient has considerably been increased excepting a slight reduction in the outlay on Miscellaneous programmes, B ut a larger proportion, as compared to the year 1958-59, has been earmarked for the development of Industries, 3 4 Transport and Social Services.
