The document summarizes key points from India's Ninth Five Year Plan related to human settlements development. It discusses strategies to increase housing, prioritize rural development, improve basic infrastructure and services in both urban and rural areas, promote sustainable urbanization, and reduce poverty. The plan aims to facilitate the construction of 20 lakh additional housing units annually with a focus on housing for disadvantaged groups. Reforms to land markets are also seen as important to address issues like scarcity and facilitate development.

These five-year plans will make you able to know about all five-year plans and their developments during these years. These are the complete notes about the five-year plans.
Cities are usually viewed as sinks; pulling in water resources for domestic and industrial needs. But they can also be seen as sponges as they release water. Usually , however, this is of decreased quality. But if we can make better use of this contaminated water, we can help avert resource crises in the future.
This presentation is all about the five years plans during the existence planning commission and having a little bit background of indian economy post independence.

The estimated contribution of urban area to India’s GDP is approximately 70-75%. Despite the enormous economic contribution, the current state of urban infrastructure is in poor condition. It is estimated that by 2030, an additional $1.2 trillion would be required to provide basic urban services. In this presentation, an attempt has been made to find out the ways to mobilize such a huge financial requirement. The target audience of this presentation includes inter alia urban development and finance professionals, city managers and the general public.

Objectives of Five year plans in India,Five year plans,India,Development in India,Planning,Economic planning,Industries,India,Planning commission of India
The policy of govt and public sector institutions is to support and develop housing programmes on the basis of availability of resources and on their perception of housing demand and affordability rather than on the basis of the requirements and affordability of prospective beneficiaries.
The National Housing policy of the government of India has highly laid emphasis on the need for public sector agencies to increasingly play the role of a facilitator of the housing process and create the enabling environment in which the requisite inputs would flow into the housing sector more easily than in the past.

Economics of slums in developing countries pepo_pepo2000
description of the economics in the developing countries, either why it's exist and why it remains and why does it always contradict with the government strategies in the upgrading with the slums area and it economic in order to make it apart of the community's economic.
Allan Cain presented on the Right to the City and the social production of habitat at Angola's National Conference for the Day of Cities. Development Workshop's research demonstrates that more housing was built socially by people with their own resources than the combined total of State and private sector during the last decade.
The key argument of this presentation is unless there are following key components to ensure that local government functions and community voices are heard
Spatial planning are often still differentiating strictly between urban and rural development.
This dichotomy and the resulting administrative boundaries do not reflect the realities of highly interconnected areas anymore.
The sheer magnitude of the urban population, haphazard and unplanned growth of urban areas, and a desperate lack of infrastructure are the main causes of socio economic problems related to metropolitan cities.
Where metropolitan-scale planning does occur, it's typically related to “hard policies” such as urban planning, public transport, and infrastructure, leaving “soft policies” such as education, health, and social services fragmented across jurisdictional boundaries.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

2. •Our
nation crossed fifty years of independence
and this called for a whole new set of
development measures
•Fresh need felt for increasing the social and
economic developmental measures.
•The government felt that the full economic
potentiality of the country, yet to be explored,
should be utilized for an overall growth in the next
five years.
•Ninth five year plan india looks through the past
weaknesses in order to frame the new measures
for the overall socio-economic development of the
country.
3. •The
•
•
•
•
emphasis was on
Human development,
Increase in the growth rate and
Adoption of a full scale employment scheme for
all.
For such development one needs to
•
Promote the social sectors of the nation and
•
To give utmost importance to the eradication of
poverty.
•
Participation of the governmental agencies along
with the general population of that nation.
•
Combined effort of public, private, and all levels
of government is essential for ensuring the
growth of india's economy.
4. •To
prioritize agricultural sector and emphasize on
the rural development
•To generate adequate employment opportunities
and promote poverty reduction
•To stabilize the prices in order to accelerate the
growth rate of the economy
•To ensure food and nutritional security
•To
provide for the basic infrastructural facilities
like education for all, safe drinking water, primary
health care, transport, energy
•To
check the growing population increase
•To encourage social issues like women
empowerment, conservation of certain benefits
for the special groups of the society
•To create a liberal market for increase in private
investments `
5.
6. •The
level of urbanisation
•
11 to 12 per cent during the first three decades
•
Increasing noticeably in the decade of
independence
•
17.3 per cent in 1951
•
25.7 per cent in 1991.
The planning commission's technical group on
urban perspectives and policies has projected the
urban population at 31.0 per cent of the total
population in 1996-97 and 38.0 per cent in 200607.
• One of the largest urban systems with 217.6
million people in 1991, which is projected to
increase to 289 million in 2001 and around 605618 million during 2021-2025.
•There will be about 40 metro cities in the country
in 2001 as against 23 in 1991.
•
7. •Ninth
Plan strategies will be directed at
•
The slow-down in urbanisation during 1981-91
•
growing concentration of urban population in
larger towns
•mega
and metro cities - land is a major constraint
for undertaking development work.
•A large part of civic amenities, particularly water
supply, sanitation and sewerage, are managed
with assets that have outlived their operational
efficiency.
•upgradation and renovation, is constrained by
high population density and concentrated
commercial activities at the locations where these
service assets are installed
•The lack of comprehensive urban planning in the
past to promote regular upgradation and renewal
has resulted in a large backlog of development
activities.
8. •The
key urban concern is the growing gap
between demand and supply of basic services.
•While there has been a steady growth in the
housing stock, infrastructure and services, the
gaps between demand and supply have been
rising, even in terms of conservative norms.
•These gaps are unlikely to be bridged over the
next 5 to 10 years.
•Many goals of housing, potable water and
sanitation that were to be attained by 2001 ad,
may require the target point fixed 10-15 years ago
to be extended
9. •India,
nevertheless, continues to live in her
villages.
•As many as 629 million people live in some
580,706 villages, which works out to an average of
1,083 per village.
• Rural population density is low at an average of
214 persons per sq.km, which brings out the
•rural development challenges in terms of
provision of human settlements-related services of
potable water, sanitation, and access to livelihood
programmes.
•Increased per capita cost of the services,
Operation and Maintenance( O & M) logistics and
recovery of investment are priority concerns.
10. •The
rural hinterland has played a critical role in
sustaining urbanisation.
•
indicators of sources of primary inputs, competitively
priced labour for urban economic activities,
•
primary funds as reflected in comparative urban and rural
credit-deposit ratios and market for urban products.
•Migration
of the rural poor to urban areas may
have a destabilising effect on urbanisation and its
sustainability.
•Income and employment opportunities will have
to rise in the rural areas, through both the farm
and non-farm sectors
•Habitats and basic services have to be improved
so that with rural development and congenial
habitats, rural areas emerge as sustainable
centres of economic activities and human
settlements.
11. •The
rural-urban continuum would be
strengthened so that gaps between rural and
urban lifestyles are reduced.
•Effective urban strategies and programmes
cannot be developed in isolation of those in the
rural areas.
•The ninth plan will take cognisance of this ground
reality, particularly in respect of three critical
components of human settlements development,
namely, drinking water, sanitation and housing.
12. •Development
of urban areas as economically efficient,
socially equitable and environmentally sustainable entities;
•Accelerated development of housing, particularly for the
low income groups and other disadvantaged groups;
•Development and upgradation of urban infrastructure
services to meet the needs of a growing population;
•Alleviation of urban poverty and unemployment;
•Promoting accessibility and affordability of the poor
to housing and basic services;
•Promoting efficient and affordable mass urban
transportation systems in metropolitan cities;
•Improvement of urban environment;
•Promoting private sector participation in the provision of
public infrastructure and of the community and NGOs in
urban planning and management of specific components of
urban services; and
•Democratic decentralisation and strengthening of
municipal governance.
13.
14. •The
ninth plan will focus special attention on
households at the lower end of the housing
market, the priority groups identified for such
support, such as eg. People below poverty line ,
SC/ST, disabled, freed bonded laborers, slum
dwellers and women headed households.
•Government will, as a facilitator , create an
environment in which access to all the requisite
inputs will be in time, in adequate quantum and
an appropriate quality and standards.
•There will be provision for more direct
intervention by the government in the case of
lower segments of the housing market and
selected disadvantaged groups.
•A package of incentives and concessions to
attract private sectors would be introduced to
shoulder the task of housing for the poor.
15. •The
ninth plan will focus special attention on
households at the lower end of the housing
market.
•Minimum housing adequacy norms will be evolved
that would include per capita living space,
structural durability, access to drinking water with
minimum quantitative and qualitative norms,
sanitation facilities and connectivity.
•Responsibility -the states
•State governments will further decentralize the
responsibility to urban local bodies (ulbs) and
panchayati raj institutions (pris),
•Provision for a participatory process to determine
the norms.
• The norms would be the base for working out
state and district housing action plans for both the
urban and rural areas.
16. •Housing
has been always a people's activity and
will continue to be so in the ninth plan, both in
the urban and the rural areas.
•Government-facilitator, create the environment
in which access to all the requisite inputs will be
in time, in adequate quantum and of appropriate
quality and standards.
• All housing delivery systems, such as the
cooperatives, private sector, community groups,
and people's self efforts, will be stimulated to
make their contributions to new housing stock as
well as up gradation and renewal of the existing
stock.
• In the case of the cooperatives, the Endeavour
will be to encourage the formation of
cooperatives from the planning stage of the
housing program and maintaining a high continuity
rate of the original members.
17. •Provision
for more direct intervention by the
government in the case of the lower segments of
the housing market and selected disadvantaged
groups
•The market-driven forces will be a prime mover
of housing development activities, particularly in
the urban areas.
• However, a package of incentives and
concessions to attract private sectors would be
introduced to shoulder the task of housing for the
poor.
•Cooperative sector and other public housing
agencies could also be encouraged to share the
responsibility.
•Subsidy would continue to be provided for some
more time and the flow mechanism will be made
transparent and increasingly routed outside the
financial system.
18. •Government
has set the goal to provide housing
for all and towards this end it proposes to
facilitate the construction of 20 lakh additional
housing units annually.
•The focus will be on providing houses to the
houseless, inadequately housed and disadvantaged
groups below poverty line.
•Since ratio of housing shortage between rural and
urban areas is 65:35 as per the NBO statistics
derived from the 1991 census, out of 20 lakh
additional houses 13 lakh will be in the rural areas
and 7 lakh will be in the urban areas
19. •Land
market reforms will be undertaken through
restructuring legal, planning and fiscal provisions.
• A work agenda to implement them will be taken
up.
•Land scarcity is one of the key elements to
development of housing and infrastructure
services.
•The cabinet has since taken a decision to repeal
ULCRA.
•The plan will take specific initiatives to promote
and adopt in human settlements programs energysaving, eco-friendly and environment-friendly
technologies and building materials.
20. •Ninth
Plan agenda will take up the massive task
of up gradation and renewal of old and
dilapidated housing stock.
•In the urban ,this is a major challenge in the
inner city areas and in the growing slum and
squatter settlements, which have become an
ingenious solution to get shelter perfected by the
people who cannot enter the formal housing
market on their own.
•Within this category, the Plan will look into the
needs of the households below the poverty line.
•Urban renewal in this direction is crucial to the
health and sustainability of the urban
environment.
21. •To
build sustainability into the housing of the
urban poor as well as in rural housing, integrated
development of settlement should be promoted,
on the principle of strengthening the linkages and
inter-dependency between shelter and income up
gradation.
•India has made a commitment to this approach in
the NHP and the Habitat II National Plan of Action
(NPA).
•To promote this strategy, the Ninth Plan will
support the use of composite credit instrument,
modify land-use patterns and city master plans
and strengthen the linkages between the farm and
the non-farm sector in the rural and semi-urban
areas.
•The NGOs and other voluntary organizations
would have to play the role of a catalyst
22. •The
options and need to upgrade the structure,
especially the roof and the wall, has been
recognized in the NHP and in rural housing
programs.
•This would reduce the annual maintenance
inputs, including human inputs, and provide
better protection against natural calamities.
•Rural housing is also qualitatively different from
urban housing, in that the housing activity is not
very much based on the cash economy but
depends to a considerable extent on land rights
and access to resources.
•Rural housing has also emerged as a major
component of rural development programs and, as
such, is considered to be an integral part of rural
development planning
23. •Keeping
in view the varied range of geo-climatic
conditions and housing typologies in rural areas,
the tasks are stupendous in developing and
managing rural housing programs.
• One set of materials, plans or construction
techniques cannot be applicable across the
country, and hence rural housing requires grassroot level feedback on housing needs, together
with basic amenities like approach roads, internal
roads, drainage, water supply, sanitation and work
place.
•The access to rural housing credit, outside the
Government schemes like the IAY, would require
special attention during the Ninth Plan, as also
full access to low-cost materials and appropriate
technology
24. •Land
should be acquired in places where public
land supply may be a constraint and this strategy
should take into account the ecology and
environmental considerations, as also the
appropriateness of the location in terms of the
economic activities and access to basic habitat
services.
•The IAY would be the main Government
programme for achieving the objective of shelter
for all rural poor. It would continue to be a 100
per cent subsidised programme, targetted
specifically towards providing shelter for the
houseless, inadequately housed and disadvantaged
groups
•The Ninth Plan would also give a thrust on
improving the quality of houses under the IAY
25. •Government
has set a goal to provide housing for
all and towards this end it proposes to facilitate
the construction of twenty lakh additional housing
units annually.
•The
target of additional dwelling units has been
broadly bifurcated as 13 lakh units for rural areas
and 7 lakh units for urban areas.
•Based
on the average cost of EWSand LIG housing
units of Rs. 35000 and Rs. 1 lakh respectively the
investment requirement for 7 lakh new units
would be of the order of around Rs. 4000 crores.
26. •The
extend of funding from institutional finance
is proposed to be 70 per cent and the balance 30
per cent is proposed to be met partly as subsidy
from Central/State Governments and partly as
beneficiary contribution in cash, kind and labour.
•Investment
expected from the institutional
financing bodies would be of the order of Rs. 2800
crores.
•A
package of incentives and concessions is needed
to attract the private sector.
27. •The
physical targets under SAP are 7 lakh
additional dwelling units annually starting from
second year of the Ninth Plan (1997-2002).
•Assuming that physical output of formal sector
institutions in the implementation of SAP would
be commensurate with the investment
requirement of 70%, the target for formal sector
financial institutions would be 4.9 lakh dwelling
units annually and the balance 2.1 lakh units
would be provided by the beneficiary contribution
,subsidy.
•Out of formal sector institutions HUDCO is
expected to build one third of the total target
namely 2.33 lakh dwelling units annually.
28. •However
since there is likely delay in the
implementation of the SAP and HUDCO is currently
engaged with the task of providing roughly one
lakh dwelling units annually through ongoing
schemes the additional target for HUDCO has been
kept at a reduced level of 1.5 lakh dwelling units
for 1998- 99 instead of 2.33 lakh originally
proposed.
•The shortfall in the current year (0.83 lakh
dwelling units) may be undertaken by other
Formal Sector Institutions. During the remaining
years of IXth Plan (i.e. 1999-2002), HUDCO could
take up one third of the shortfall in 1998-99 (i.e.
0.83 lakh dwelling units) over and above the
original target of 2.33 lakh dwelling units.
29. •As
an incentive for taking up the additional
targets in the formal sector through the various
activities/programmes a corpus of approximately
Rs. 100 crores could be set up which could be
utilised for leveraging additional resources for
meeting the requirement of funds for housing of
the deprived sections of the society
•Housing is a State subject. Given the wide
variation in the housing needs in the States and
constraint of resources to meet the housing
needs, State Govts. and UTs would have to play a
critical role in formulating plans and programmes
suited to local needs and conditions in
consultation with the local bodies.
30. •State
Governments would need to identify the
specific agencies for implementation of the Action
Plan. Developmment of housing infrastructure and
services has not kept in tune with the growth of
housing.
•The problem of upgradation and renewal of basic
services like potable drinking water and sanitation
is serious.
•An integrated programme for land assembly and
infrastructure development particularly water
supply, sanitation, drainage and electric supply
would require to be taken up on a priority basis.
31. •Action
of the State Government would need to
take into account the resource flow from the
private, cooperative and public sectors.
•The role of the Central Government would be to
guide and facilitate the implementation of Action
Plan.
•The synergy created with the efficiency of
private sector and experience of the public
agencies would ensure that the overall costs is
kept at minimum.
32.
33. •At
present it is estimated that approx 12.3 lakh
houses are being constructed annually in rural
areas under various housing schemes.
•Based on this estimation it was projected that
approx 61.50 lakh houses (i.e. 12.30 lakh x 5
years) will be added to the overall housing stock
between 1997-2002 AD at the 1997-98 level of
funding.
•In addition, from the Additional Central
Assistance (ACA) for BMS which includes rural
housing as one of the seven components, it is
estimated that at least 1.70 lakh additional
housing units would be constructed annually from
1998-99 to 2001-02.
•Therefore, a total of 68.30 lakh units of rural
houses were to be constructed as per earlier
projections.
34. •Under
the Special Action Plan for Rural Housing,
an additional 13 lakh new houses are required to
be constructed annually in the rural areas in
addition to the existing 12.3 lakh units per year.
•Therefore,
the total houses to be constructed
annually would increase commensurately to
25.30 lakh.
35. •The
task for preparing the Action Plan on Rural
Housing has been taken up in the second year of
the Ninth Five Year Plan i.e. 1998-99.
•The composite housing strategy for the Ninth Five
Year Plan is multi-pronged and includes proposed
modifications in the existing housing schemes and
certain new initiatives.

37. •Innovative
Stream for Rural Housing and Habitat
Development (ISRHHD) – to encourage the use of
cost effective, environment friendly, scientifically
tested and appropriate indigenous and modern
designs, technologies and materials.
•National Housing Bank(NHB) – to finance 1 lakh
housing units under the Swarna Jayanti Housing
Finance Scheme.
•Greater equity participation to HUDCO for
construction of additional houses in rural areas.
•Rural Building Centers to facilitate technology
transfer, information dissemination, skill up
gradation and production of cost effective and
environment -friendly materials.
•Basic Minimum Services(BMS) Programs – Housing
is one of the seven components identified under
the BMS to provide housing to the shelter less poor
in a time bound manner
38. •In
the first year of the Ninth Plan i.e. 1997-98 the
Central outlay for rural housing (i.e. IAY) was
Rs.1190.00 crore.
•With this financial provision approximately 7.00
lakh IAY houses were constructed during that year.
•Approx. 5.30 lakh units have been constructed
outside the IAY by various housing agencies and by
the State Governments.
• Therefore the total houses constructed in 199798 were approx 12.30 lakh.
•In the financial year 1998-99, a Central outlay of
Rs.1600.00 crore has been provided in the Budget
for Rural Housing.
39. •Based
on this central provision it is estimated
that 13.28 lakh houses can be constructed under
the IAY and other housing schemes.
•In
addition 7.50 lakh houses would be constructed
under other rural housing schemes implemented
by the state governments, including rural houses
constructed under BMS, thereby cumulating a
total of 20.78 lakh units in the current year.
•The
end of the ninth plan i.E. 2001-02, 109.53
lakh units would be constructed under various
housing schemes in the rural areas.
40. •The
IAY is implemented through District Rural
Development Agencies (DRDAs) specially set up in
each district of the country for implementation of
rural development programs or through Zilla
Parishads.
•At the field level the block machinery is
entrusted with the responsibility of ensuring that
targets for construction of houses under IAY are
achieved.
• At the village level the onus is on the gram sabha
to identify and select the beneficiaries.
•However, given that most State Governments also
have their own rural housing programs, in order to
facilitate the implementation of a composite
housing plan in the States, it is proposed that the
Centrally Sponsored Scheme of Indira Awas Yojana
be transferred to the State sector.
41. •The
Credit-cum-Subsidy Scheme and the
Innovative Stream for Rural Housing and Habitat
Development would also be implemented by the
DRDAs/Zilla Parishads.
•The
former scheme would be implemented in
collaboration with financial
institutions/commercial banks, housing boards
with the refinance facility being provided by
HUDCO and the NHB.
•The
Innovative Stream for Rural Housing and
Habitat Development would be implemented on a
project basis through HUDCO/NGOs.
42. •The
scheme of Rural Building Centres would be
implemented by HUDCO/well known State rural
housing organisations and NGOs through the
DRDAs.
•Among the other housing schemes being
implemented in the rural areas, the Golden
Jubilee Housing Finance Scheme, which has a
rural component, is being implemented by the
NHB.
•The NGOs engaged in construction of rural houses
are financed through CAPART.

Department of Rural Employment & Poverty
Alleviation in the Ministry of Rural Areas &
Employment is responsible for release of Central
share of funds, overall guidance, policy-making,

Department of Rural Employment & Poverty
Alleviation, on the basis of the monthly reports
received from the States/UTs.
•Senior Officers of the rank of Deputy Secretary
and above in the Ministry are appointed as Area
Officers for different States/UTs.
•These Area Officers visit the allotted States/UTs
from time to time and inspect among other
programmes the actual implementation of the
rural housing programme in the field
44. •They
also paprticipate in the State Level
Coordination Committee (SLCC) meetings
providing thereby, an effective link between the
policy makers (Government of India) and the
implementing agencies (State/UT Governments).
•The programmes are also reviewed at the
meetings with the State Secretaries of Rural
Development and with the Project Directors of
DRDAs in the Workshops which are held annually.
•The State Level Coordination Committee (SLCC)
monitors the programme at the State Government
level.
•In addition to the regular monitoring of the
programmes by the Ministry, the Programme
Evaluation Organisation (PEO) of the Planning
Commission also periodically evaluates
programmes in the rural development sector.
45. •The
PEO has carried out a quick study of IAY in
1992-93. A system of Concurrent Evaluation has
been evolved by the Ministry of Rural Areas &
Employment under which reputed independent
institutions/research organizations are involved in
undertaking the evaluation work.
•A
Concurrent Evaluation of the IAY is being
undertaken on the initiative of Department of
Rural Employment & Poverty Alleviation.
