NFFWP : Precursor to NREGA
Perspective Plan of 18 district prepared by PRIs in consultation with reputed agencies like; IIT Kgp, XIM Bbsr, ORMAS,& CYSD .
Government Policy to enhance irrigation coverage upto 35% of total cultivable land – accordingly minimum 50% of allocation to go to irrigation sector – by creating/renovating water bodies.
Further emphasis was laid on providing all weather accessibility to the villages having population more than 1000.

NFFWP : Continued
Emphasis on development of GIS data with a complete inventory of roads , water channels and water bodies with standard coding pattern prescribed.
Accordingly 5 year Perspective Plans of 18 districts have been prepared.
Consequently these plans have been made NREGA compliant.
Now Annual Plans have been derived from these Perspective Plans for preparing shelf of projects and executing under NREGA.
