Under this Programme untied funds are extended at the district level providing a flexibility to take up public infrastructure works such as school buildings, Anganwadi centres. Primary Health Centres, drinking water supply, village roads, electric lights in public places etc. The District Collector, the Superintendent of Police and the District Forest Officer constitute a committee entrusted with the task of planning, selecting, approving and implementing works in the district concerned, I am happy to note that this intervention in the most backward districts of the country have yielded quick results on the ground. As many as 42,000 works out of nearly 67,000 works taken up under the lAP have been completed. This has beeip largely possible due to close monitoring of the programme by the Planning Commission and the proactive and enthusiastic work of the district level officers. I appreciate the Initiative taken by the Planning Commission for publishing a compilation of innovative works taken up in the 60 districts selected under the lAP. I am sure, this compilation would result in replication of successful and innovative works under this program m e. (P .

A grant of Rs.25 crore and Rs.30 crore was made available, in the year 2010-11 and 2011-12 respectively, to each District Collector to execute development works on a fast track basis. Regular monitoring through video conference and field visits was done by the Planning Commission. It is heartening to note that in a short span of fifteen months, out o f nearly 67,000 works taken up, 42,000 have already been completed. Photographs and brief write-up on some of these success stories is placed in this volume. I would also like to mention that young officers have done a commendable job in the field. I am confident such efforts will make a material difference to the lives o f people living in such areas, and more importantly, will convince the youth to abjure violence and join democratic mainstream to become an integral part of a modem, progressive and resurgent India.

The District-level Committee was given the flexibility to spend the amount for development schemes according to need as assessed by it. The Committee is to draw up a Plan consisting of concrete proposals for public infrastructure and services. The schemes were to be so selected as to show results in the short term. It was also stipulated that the expenditure on these projects should be over and above the expenditure being incurred for the regular State/Central/Centrally Sponsored Schemes. The Committee was asked to ensure that there was no duplication of expenditure on the same project. Subsequently eighteen more districts have been added to the list and an amount of Rs. 30 crore each has recently been released to them. The Development Commissioner/equivalent officer in charge of development in the State is responsible for scrutiny of expenditure and monitoring of lAP in the State. Macro level monitoring of lAP is to be carried out by the Committee headed by the Member Secretary, Planning Commission. The State Governments were also asked to ensure a suitable form of consultation with the local Members of Pariiament and Panchayati Raj Institutions on the schemes to be taken up under lAP. The programme implementation of lAP is governed by four cardinal principles, namely, (1 ) clear cut accountability; (2) flexibility in the choice of works/projects; (3) frequent interaction, horizontal learning and close monitoring through field visits and video conferences; and (4) early audit. Close monitoring in pursuance of the four cardinal principles stated above has been undertaken. A series of video conferences by the Planning Commission have led to a frequent exchange of information, horizontal learning, quick resolution of problems and ensured quick results on the ground. Most Advisers undertook at least two visits to the districts. Very shortly all the works will also be made available under GIS platform. Integrated Action Plan (lAP) for Selected Tribal and Backwani Districts Union Home Minister conceptualized the lAP and provided the necessary guidance at the very inception of the scheme and took several reviews in the last 15 months. I would also like to thank Deputy Chairman, Planning Commission for his constant support through out the past several months. The success of lAP is due to the effective leadership of the Development Commissioners/Additional Chief Secretaries/Principal Secretaries in charge of lAP and the three member team comprising the District Collector/District Magistrate, Superintendent of Police, District Forest Officer and their team of officials who have delivered substantive and tangible results in a short period of time. I would also like to place on record the excellent contribution of the former Special Secretary, Home, Shri D.R.S. Chaudhary and his team from Ministry of Home Affairs in this entire exercise. I must acknowledge the efforts of the NIC, particularly. Senior Technical Director (N IC), Planning Commission and his team, the District level NIC offices who have helped maintain the MIS and have made the production of this document possible. The State Plan Advisers who were nominated as nodal officers for lAP States and officers of the MLP Division, Planning Commission have worked very hard and provided both intellectual input and information from the field; Photographs and write-up on some of the innovative projects taken up by the 60 districts under lAP, forwarded by the State Governments have been compiled for record and information. These indicate that good outputs and outcomes can be achieved in a fairly short period of time. 6ha Pillai)(Sudha Pillai) Member Secretary Planning Commission 01.03.2012 Integrated Action Plan (lAP) for Selected Tribal and Backward Districts lAP - 60 Selected Tribal and Backward Districts Amount Released : Rs. 2700 crore Expenditure Reported : Rs. 1894.75 crore (70.18%) Type of Works: SI.
