Subject:- SUSTAINABLE LIVELIHOODS IN BARANI AREAS PROJECT –
10TH QUARTERLY PROGRESS REPORT FOR THE PERIOD
FROM OCTOBER TO DECEMBER, 2008
Kindly peruse your note in the margin of PUC dated March, 30th 2009.
Comments on this report are as under:-
This Quarterly Progress Report is submitted after a lapse of almost one
quarter. Decimal performance of the project in terms of financial and physical achievement
is main feature of this report. Summary position regarding major target and achievement is
as under:-
NRSP
Table 4 page 19 indicates that NRSP has achieved most of its targets. Its
performance for SSIs completed is only 46% and small scale infrastructure
ongoing is 16%. Activities from all activities presented from Senior No.1 to
6 were supposed to be translated in the formation of SSI schemes, but the
same is quite discouraging.
PRSP
Performance of PRSP is quite unsatisfactory. Only 31% SSIs were
completed and 14% were ongoing.
TPAC
Table 6 of the report presents this position. Even only in one case, “loan
approved and disbursed”, 53% targets were achieved. For other activities
24% target was achieved for Fund/Account Managing Training (FAMK)
26% for SSI and Community Management Skills Training (CMST) 26%
and 28% for Managers Workshops.
Financial utilization
Overall progress of the project in financial utilization was 23% and physical
progress was discouraging and the problems highlighted include that both
the Project Director and Deputy Project Director were transferred.
I have discussed this issue with Project Director. He has intimated that there
was an overall improvement as MOU with the ADB has been finalized. PC-I being revised
and ADB representative are expected to meet Secretary, P&D Department on 10th April,
2009. Until and unless experience persons having proper skill in dealing
with this business are not posted in Project, fate of the project will remain the same. Only
wishful thinking may not resolve the issue. It is thus suggested that at least one
experienced Deputy Project Director having adequate skill in planning and financial
matters should be posted to save this project. Otherwise fate of this project will not
improve.
Matter is being submitted for perusal and consideration as desired by
Secretary, P&D Department.
