X Plan Projects Achievements as on 30.06.08
X Plan Projects Achievements as on 30.06.08
Issues: Expectations from Implementing Agencies • Delay in completion of Projects: • Projects to be completed in 24 months post sanction • All X Plan projects have crossed their schedule of completion • Project implementation to be expedited • Close monitoring of supplies & works 2. Release of BPL Connections: • Only 32.8% connections released in 4 states • Progress is very poor in M.P. (3.4%) and Maharashtra (28.9%). • Release of BPL connections to be taken up on top priority
Issues: Expectations from Implementing Agencies 3. Delays in providing land for 33/11KV sub-stations – • This is one major reason towards delay in project implementation • Suitable land to be handed over to implementing agency within 3 months of award to avoid delay in energization of lines & thefts 4. Coordination of Material Supply- • Required quantities to be tied up: Poles, transformers, cables • Identification of local contractors • Enhancement of capacity of local industry for pole manufacturing
Issues: Expectations from Implementing Agencies 5.Delay in energization of village – Big gap between number of villages where work completed and villages energized • Safety inspection to be arranged immediately on completion of work and village energized • Authorise Discom officers for safety inspection as in Chattisgarh • Administrative action to stop theft of material 6. Delay in issue of Panchayat certificates – • Rajasthan – Work completed: 1,631 villages, Certificates: 793 villages • M.P. - Work completed: 16 villages, Certificates: Nil • Certificate to be arranged immediately after completion of work
Issues: Expectations from Implementing Agencies 7. Delay in taking over of physical assets by state utilities - • Assets should be taken over within 15 days of completion of work 8. Quality of Material & Inspection – • Third party inspection for X Plan projects • Three-Tier Quality mechanism for XI Plan projects
Issues: Expectations from Implementing Agencies 9.Establishment of Franchisee in RGGVY Village – • None of the village electrified under RGGVY franchised so far • Participation in Franchisee training programme from Rajasthan is poor (only 1 so far) • Franchisee should be in place at the time of energization • Active participation in franchisee training programmes required. 10. Correctness of data- • The data submitted by States to different agencies do not match • States to coordinate with CEA to freeze the data i.r.o. un-electrified villages • States to submit authenticated data on RGGVY to REC • States to submit data through web based MIS
Status of Un-Electrified Villages ?What is the programme of electrification of the villages at colmn 6 ? Are these villages became un-electrified as per new definition ? Are these villages being electrified under intensive electrification ? Why Madhya Pradesh have high figures of UEV in RE Plan
Issues: Expectations from Implementing Agencies • Notification of RE Plan – • Only Gujarat & Maharashtra have finalized • MoP circulated sample RE Plan • M.P. draft RE Plan commented by MoP • M.P. and Rajasthan to submit their final/draft RE Plans • States to finalize before August ‘08 12. Fixing of RGGVY Boards – Few boards installed in Rajasthan • Boards to be fixed in all un-electrified villages (nil in Gujarat & Maharashtra, M.P.:115), where work has been completed or under progress
Issues: Expectations from Implementing Agencies 13. New service connections to APL households – No connection in Gujarat & M.P. • Utilities to release APL connections simultaneously • Utilities to arrange awareness campaigns 14.Regular meetings of State Coordination Committee headed by Chief Secretary - • State to arrange monthly meetings to sort out state level & inter-departmental issues 15. Regular meetings of District Committee - • Utilities to arrange regular meetings to review progress and to sort out local problems
Conditions for RGGVY in XI Plan RGGVY • States to ensure minimum daily supply of 6 to 8 hours of electricity in the RGGVY network. • Deployment of franchisees is mandatory for the management of rural distribution in projects financed under the scheme. • States to give assurance of meeting any financial deficit in this context by supplying electricity at subsidized tariff • Three-Tier Quality Monitoring Mechanism introduced to be adopted to ensure quality of material & implementation. • The states to notify their Rural Electrification Plans in 6 months (Aug. ’08)
New Initiatives • For effective implementation and better monitoring of the RGGVY projects sanctioned in XI Plan, all the implementing agencies have to adopt following procedures • Adoption of Three-tier Quality Monitoring Mechanism : RGGVY Quality Manual finalized & released • Web-based Monitoring • Milestone based monitoring system • Electronic fund transfer up to contractor level • Constitution of State Level Coordination Committees headed by Chief Secretary to resolve state level and inter-departmental issues • Activation of district level committees for review of rural electrification
RGGVY- Three Tier Quality Control Mechanism • 1% villages randomly selected • At least one new & augmented Substations each • 100% verification of BPL connections in 0.5% villages and 5 connections in other inspected villages TIER-III NQM (National Quality Monitor) MOP • Minimum one inspection of major material • 10% villages randomly selected • At least one new & augmented Substations each • 100% verification of BPL connections in 2.5% villages and 5 connections in other inspected villages TIER-II RQCC (REC Quality Control Coordinator) REC • 10% randomly selected materials • 50% villages randomly selected • All new & 50% augmented Substations • 100% verification of BPL connections in 5% villages and 5 connections in other inspected villages TIER-I 3rd Party Appointed by Implementing Agency Implementing Agency • All materials as per MQP/ Drawings • All villages & Substations as per FQP • 100% verification of BPL connections Turnkey Contractors
