I. AGRICULTURE AND ALLIED SERVICES
I. CROP HUSBANDARY
Agriculture is the main stay for 78% population of the State. Agricultural
economy is characterized by dependence on nature, low investments, low
productivity, mono-cropping, inadequate irrigation facilities, less crop
diversification and absence of contract farming.
The growth in agriculture is aimed at 2-3% of GSDP. It will be mainly
achieved by increasing the cropping intensity from 127% to 150% during the plan
period and increasing production by introducing high yielding variety (HYV) of
rice, pulses and oilseeds.
For increasing the production of all agricultural crops in the State following
strategy will be followed.
• Crop diversification: The main objective is to replace rice crop in fragile
and un-economical areas and substitute with other suitable crops in
different Agro-Climatic Zones (ACZs). The rice in fragile environments
like rain shadow areas, uplands will be targeted for replacing with suitable
pulses and oilseed crops.
• Increasing cropping intensity: For double cropping 529 Anicuts, 2 lakh
tube wells and large number of Minor Irrigation Projects will be completed
to bring 10 lakh ha. Area under irrigation.
• Sugarcane production, Sugar manufacturing, Co-generation of electricity
and ethanol production.
• Seed Production of High yielding varieties and distribution to the farmers
by Chhattisgarh State Seed Corporation.
• Increasing irrigation under micro irrigation, tubewells, Kisan Samriddhi
Scheme and Shakambari Schemes.
• During 10th
Plan, drilling and energisation of one lakh tube wells have been
achieved and in the 11th
Plan, the target has been kept as two lakh tube
wells for drilling and energisation.
• Special schemes shall be started for improving traditional tribal crops such
as Niger, Kodo and Kutki, etc.
• Cultivation of jatropha and biodiesel production in a big way.

TRIBAL SUB PLAN (TSP)
The concept of TSP was introduced at the beginning of the Fifth Five
Year Plan (1974-75). The motive behind the concept was to ensure the smooth
availability of fund for TSP area by compelling every line department to make a
proportional provision in their budget, and this provision is not permissible for re
appropriation form TSP to Non TSP area. Since then, the TSP fund has become an
effective weapon to overcome the problem of TSP area by providing financial
assistance for different scheme. As per the census report of year the population of
scheduled tribes in the state is 66,17,000 which constitutes the 31.76 percent of the
total population of the state. Each Development Department earmarks 38.00% of
the total plan outlay for the development of the TSP area. Several Demand
numbers are being created in the state budget to ensure that the amount allocated
for TSP area could not be used elsewhere.
The Tribal Sub Plan approach is an area development approach with
adequate emphasis on family oriented income generating activities, considering
the problems of the tribals with an objective to bridge the gap of socio-economic
level between tribals and others. The original guidelines for ITDPS were made to
take family oriented income generating scheme relating to Agriculture,
Horticulture, Animal Husbandry, elimination of exploitation and human resource
development through education and training and infrastructure development
programmes. The policy continues on the same lines with refinement over the
years.
The Tribal Development Department functions as the controlling
authority for all departments, for expenditure in TSP areas. Proposals are approved
by the Tribal Development Department for inclusion in annual budget. Also,
expenditure is Okayed by the Tribal Development Department, once the budget is
passes in the legislature. This enables the department to maintain a balance in
expenditure in all spheres of administration.
For the annual plan of year 2008-09 an outlay of Rs. 3221.23 crores
has been proposed for TSP against the total plan outlay from the state budget of
Rs. 9230.59 crores which account for 34.90%. Sectoral allocation of TSP is
given under:

SCHEDULED CASTE SUB PLAN (SCSP)
As per the census report of year the population of scheduled castes in the
state is 24,19,000 which constitutes the 11.61 percent of the total population of the
state. Earlier, the concept of Scheduled Caste Sub Plan was popularly known as
Special Component Plan (SCA). The SC population of the state is living across the
state and also confining to a particular area therefore SCSP is based on beneficiary
approach aiming to benefit them.
Looking into the mixed demographic pattern and uneven distribution of the
SC population across the state, it was not possible to earmark the fund for major
projects of irrigation, power and means of transportation exclusively reserved to
benefit only SC population. Therefore, family oriented programmes directly
benefiting the SC population and other works like drinking water facility,
38
community centers, cc roads in scheduled caste prone area were taken collectively
under the umbrella of SCSP. The concept SCSP has helped in ensuring the
availability of funds reserved for SC population in different sectors. Several
Demand Numbers are being created in the state budget to ensure that the amount
allocated for SCSP area could not be used elsewhere.
For the annual plan of year 2008-09, an outlay of Rs.1105.52 crores has
been proposed for SCSP against the total plan outlay from the state budget of
Rs. 9230.59 crores which accounts to 11.98 %.

WOMEN COMPONENT PLAN
(GENDER BUDGET)
Women have been identified as key agents of sustainable development and
women’s equality and empowerment are pivotal to a more holistic approach
towards processes of development that are sustainable. The resources and
opportunities of our society should be equally divided between man and woman so
to make it more equitable world.
Women have not actively participated in their own emancipation mainly
due to lack of education, low economic independence and traditional dominance
of man since time immemorial. The economic and social status of woman needs to
be raised to address the issues of empowering women.
In the State female-male ratio (sex ratio) is 989 to 1000 and female literacy
rate is 51.85 % in comparison to male literacy rate of 77.38%. Participation of
women in regular government services is approximately 15% whereas in work
charged and contingency services they constitute one third part of it.
To bring about changes in aforementioned scenario special efforts have
been proposed to be taken up in the 11th
five year plan for empowerment of
women. Various schemes are being under taken in plan to reduce MMR, to bridge
over gender gap, to promote girls education, to improve women’s economic status
and to protect them against any type of exploitation.
14 departments of 5 sectors have been identified having schemes to benefit
women beneficiaries individually. Almost 13 % of the Total Plan outlay flows to
women component plan.Some major provisions have been made to empower
women and bridge over gender gap in various sectors as under, details of schemes
are given in annexure- IX:

Introduction
Chhattisgarh has total geographical area of 137.00 lakh hectares out of
which 43% arable land under cultivation has tremendous potential for agricultural
development. The State has very variable soil and climatic conditions which
favours growing all kinds of crops. The State has 18 districts with three agro
climatic zones with diverse biophysical characteristics ranging from ecological,
physiographic, geological to hydrological variation. As per 2001 census 78%
population of the State is engaged in agriculture. Rice is the main crop which
accounts for 75 percent of net sown area of State.
Performance of agriculture in the State during Xth Plan
During Xth Five Year Plan, in kharif crop , the growth in the area of
rice decreased by -2.2 % due to intensive crop diversification programme adopted
by the State government. The decrease in the area of rice could be seen as an
increase in the area of other crops like tur, urd. soyabean, niger etc. In rabi season
growth in the area of all crops increased but with a slower pace. Increase in
irrigation sources through different schemes played major role in increasing the
double cropped area.
Sufficiency in food production
Though the productivity levels of al1 food grains in the State is lower-
than the national averages (see Table1) the total production of food grains in the
State are higher than the State’s requirement (see Table 2) except in oilseeds.

XIth Plan Strategy:
To increase the production of all agricultural crops in the State strategies
adopted includes following action:-
Crop diversification: Crop diversification was the main emphasis in X Plan and it
will continue as main target in XI Plan also. The main objective is to replace rice
crop in fragile and un-economical areas by other suitable crops in different Agro-
Climatic Zones (ACZs). The rice in fragile environments like rain shadow areas,
uplands will be targeted for replacing with suitable pulses and oilseed crops.
Increasing cropping intensity: Chhattisgarh though receives about 1300 mm
average rainfall, is still a mono-cropped area. This is the main cause for migration
of small and marginal farmers besides landless labourer. During X five year plan,
the State government made intensive efforts for increasing double cropping area
under rain fed conditions in heavy soils and also through proper water and crop
management practices. During XI five year plan also this remains the main thrust
area with target of increasing the existing cropping intensity of 127 percent to 150
percent.
Organic Farming: The State with very little input of chemicals in agriculture has
a very good scope for producing organically grown food especially in tribal
dominant districts. It is, therefore, proposed during XI plan to concentrate on
organic farming in those areas where there is tremendous scope. This target will be
achieved through both State schemes like NADEP/Vermi compost scheme and
also through National Organic Farming scheme. For capacity building of the
farmers in this field the budget available in other schemes like Farmer's training
and tour programmes will be utilized.
Development of Agro-forestry and Farm forestry: There are large wastelands in
the State which are kept fallow since decades. Besides, the existing bunds occupy
approximately 10 percent of rice area which comes to 36.0 lakh. These wastelands
and rice bunds will be utilized through agro-forestry and farm forestry. It is
proposed to develop jatropha plantations in these wastelands and rice bunds to
promote production of biodiesel.
45
Precision farming: In order to improve agriculture with limited resources like
water and land, precision farming needs boosting. The government is planning to
encourage precision farming through poly house cultivation, use of drip and
sprinkler irrigation for commercial crops and vegetables etc. Fodder is in a great
demand in the State and forage production will also be brought under precision
farming. At least 15-20 per cent area is planned to be brought under precision
farming during XI plan.
Development of Forage and Fodder crops: The cattle are fed with only paddy
straw, which causes mal-nutrition in the animals. As a result, though the animal
population is high in the State (128.0 lakh), the production of milk is only about
54.42 lakh kg. In the other words, the milk production is less than 500 grams per
animal. It is, therefore, necessary to improve the animal health as well as their
milk production with proper development of feed and fodder. In view of this it is
proposed to take a massive programme on fodder development during XI plan by
producing fodder in wastelands through scientific approach.
Improving Farm machinery/implements, minor irrigation: At present the level of
mechanization in the State is 0.6 kw/ha. as against the national average of 1.23
kw/ha. Under this target, intensive efforts will be made to improve the farm
mechanization and implements by developing new animal drawn implements as
well as modifying the existing tractor drawn implements to suit the soil. Live
demonstrations of the implements will be done in farmers' fields and the farmers
will be trained in use of these new implements. The target will be met from the
budget outlay provided under different schemes that are in operation in the State
like, Machine Tractor station scheme, Deepening of wells and bore-wells,
Shakambari, low lift pump subsidy scheme, macro-management work plan for
promotion of farm mechanization etc.
Crop Insurance Programme: In Chhattisgarh, the agriculture is mainly dependent
on the monsoon. The State government is implementing the crop insurance
schemed launched by Govt. of India. Under National Agriculture Insurance
Scheme (NAIS), the area covered in the State during X plan is approximately 70.0
lakh hectares with an insurance of Rs. 19622 crores. The number of farmers
benefited is 9.42 lakh and the financial liability of the State was Rs. 78.62 crores.
It is proposed that at least 20 lakh farmers should be covered under NAIS in each
year during XI five year plan.
Strengthening of soil testing laboratories: Soil test based fertilizer application is
highly beneficial to the small and marginal farmers. The soil testing laboratories in
the State are very old without any facility to test micro nutrients. In this backdrop
it is proposed to strengthen soil testing laboratories during XI five year plan.
Mobile soil testing laboratories will also be developed to reach the fields for soil
testing.
46
Establishment of tissue Culture Laboratory: The State government is in process
to establish a Tissue Culture Laboratory for mass production of superior planting
material of sugarcane & banana. The production capacity of the lab will be 10 lakh
plants per year. This will help to fulfil the demand of superior planting material for
sugarcane growing areas; and also for organizing tissue culture training for needy
persons. Today majority of the commercialized tissue culture ventures are in
private sector and thus this technology is in close doors from the point of view of
training and demonstrations. It being the Govt. initiative it would be possible to
make it an open technology available to all the farmers and farmer entrepreneurs.
Expected outcome during Xl Plan: The State government is planning to address
the above issues in mission mode. The main objectives is to increase the overall
productivity of all crops by decreasing the rice area in unproductive lands (crop
diversification) as well as increasing cropping intensity in rice fallows under un-
irrigated conditions. Besides, intensive efforts would be made to increase the
productivity in a sustainable manner by adopting organic farming, integrated pest
management, integrated nutrient management and integrated crop management
practices. This will help not only in improving the agricultural economy of the
State but also keep the environmental balance.

Fruit Cultivation
Among fruits, Mango is the major crop, covering approximately 25764
hectares (34.00% of the total area under fruit crop). It is cultivated all across the
State in all the district. The highest mango bearing area is Surguja (6205 ha.) and
least is Mahasamund with only 107 ha. under mango cultivation. Mango is being
developed as a major fruit crop for plantation as its harvesting may start in the
State from 20th April till July. Different varieties of Mango especially Dussehari
is ready in the last week of April, so it can be harnessed for export purpose.
Other fruits including Litchi, covering 3912 hectares (5.16 percent),
Cashew nut covering 7586 hectares (9.90 percent) and Banana in 3492.6 ha. ( 9.26
percent) area in the State. Cashew nut is second highest cultivated fruit crop in
Chhattisgarh with 7506 ha. (nearly 9.90 percent of fruit crops cultivated in
Chhattisgarh). The highest cashew producing district is Raigarh with 5162 ha.
followed by Kanker with 1160 ha. Litchi is important crop in the State and has
good potential.
Orange Cultivation is negligible in Chhattisgarh and hence is not being
considered. However, Lime is being grown in some pockets and has high
potential.
Although average productivity of Banana and Papaya is low, but, with
the introduction of high-yielding tissue culture plants in Banana, the average
productivity has increased. In case of Papaya, with the introduction of Taiwan
varieties, the average productivity has increased.
Vegetable Cultivation
The important vegetables grown in the State are Potato, Sweet Potato,
Onion, Tomato, Okra, Brinjal, Cauliflower, Cabbage, Colocasia, and Green Pea
etc. Total area under vegetable cultivation is 195617.10 ha out of which Tomato
covers maximum area i.e. approximately 29204.60 ha. Durg district has maximum
tomato cultivation on 7478 ha. followed by Raipur with 5000 ha.Brinjal is second
highest grown vegetable in the State cultivated over 19445.7 ha. Durg is the
highest producer of Brinjal followed by Raipur, and Surguja.
Medicinal and Aromatic Plants
Chhattisgarh is a repository of a large number of economically,
socially and commercially important medicinal, aromatic and dye plants. Nearly
625 plant species including medicinal plants from the forests are traded.
56
Medicinal and Aromatic Plants (MAPs) are classified into wild and
cultivated, depending on their occurrence.
Total area under medicinal plants cultivation is 2000 hac. (2005-06)
and total area under aromatic plants cultivation is 6000 hac. (2005-06).

commercial varieties.
3. Loose Flowers - Chrysanthemum, Marigold, Galardia etc.
4. Flowers under Protected Cultivation - Gerbera, Anthurium
The maximum cultivation of flowers is undertaken in Durg and Raipur
districts followed by other districts such as Rajnandgaon, Bilaspur and Surguja
etc. Total of 1551 ha. area is covered under flower cultivation out of which the
distribution is as follows:
Category Percentage Bulbous Flowers 20%
Grafted and others 20%
Loose Flowers- 50%
Flowers under Protected Cultivation (Gerbera) 10%
At present the area under floriculture is less. However, with the
launching of National Horticulture Mission (NHM) further growth is expected.
New marketing avenues are available within the State as well as in adjoining
States. Nagpur (Maharashtra) is a big flower mandi for Central India. However at
present most of the flower in Nagpur Mandi comes from Ahmednagar which is
situated 500 Kms from Nagpur.This situation can be used to fetch new market for
the State .
Status of Horticultural Nurseries
Mostly the availability of planting material of different Horticultural
crops is through Govt. Nurseries established by Department of Horticulture in
different districts. There are 106 departmental nurseries established in 16 districts
of the State. These nurseries play an important role in producing good quality
planting material which is easily available to the farmers. Along with production
57
of planting material, these nurseries are center for conducting different types of
training and other activities related with Horticulture.
Apart from 106 nurseries in different districts, there is one
Demonstration cum Vegetable seed production farm established at Bana in Raipur
district. In this farm, the activity of production of certified seed on mass scale from
breeder and foundation seed is conducted. Demonstration of different Medicinal
and Aromatic Crops are taken at this farm for the benefit of the farmers.

ANIMAL HUSBANDRY
Introduction
Animal Husbandry Department has a strength of human resource
(Technical Staff as 354 Veterinary Assistant Surgeon and 1447 Assistant
Veterinary Field Officers) & infrastructure (208 Hospitals, 22 A. I. centres, 708
Dispensories, 252 A.I. Sub Centers, 07 Laboratories, 04 Cattle Breeding farms, 07
Poultry Farms, 02 Piggery Farms, one Goat breeding farm & two Training
Centres) along with various beneficiary oriented schemes. They will meet out the
requirement of Livestock production, preservation & improvement of breed
through Live stock Breeding policy.
There are 105.80 lakh Cattle population, 30.13 lakh Goat Pig and other
animal & 81.81 lakh Poultry population in the State. As a result of departmental
breed improvement programme and Beneficiaries oriented programme the
significant growth of improved breed of animal has been recorded in 17th
Cattle
census as fallows:-

1. Cattle 105 253 140.95
2. Poultry 6495 8005 23.25
3. Local breed 8680 8628 -0.59
The growth rate achieved during the Xth
Plan period in livestock is about
6%, layer industry is about 9% and broiler industry is 13-14%. Therefore, the
livestock and poultry sector are going to be the major thrust areas in XIth
Plan
period in order to achieve 4% GDP in agriculture and allied sector. The livestock
population of the State is marked by enormously high proportion of low producing
non descript animals (More than 86 lakh cattle out of a total 88 lakh are non
descript). As such during the XI th
Plan period efforts have to be made to enlarge
the scope of breed improvement in cattle and buffalo covering new areas,
induction of high yielding good quality milch animals, under beneficiary oriented
programme, encourage fodder production, cold chain facility, product innovation,
value addition as well as creation of assured marketing infrastructure.
The State has very large population of scheduled tribe and scheduled
caste, together constituting about 44% of the total State population. There is
growing awareness for goat, pig and poultry keeping amongst these populations.
Therefore, it is envisaged to enlarge the scope of goatery, piggery and poultry by
63
covering more areas of these two categories of SC & ST people. This could be
accompanied by distributing good quality goats and pigs of recognized breeds
under beneficiary oriented programme. The poultry is another lucrative area for
income generation, livelihood support and self-employment, which are attracting
unemployed youths. Accordingly efforts have to be made to encourage backyard
poultry among socially underprivileged SC and ST families and also encourage
small-scale commercial layer and broiler farming as a part of providing self-
employment. The State could not make any mark in sheep husbandry as evident
from relatively very low population of this species in this State. In XI th
Plan
greater attention need to be paid for encouraging sheep husbandry in the selected
pockets as well as establishing sheep farms in strategic location. Further the
department of Animal Husbandry and Dairy plans to undertake good livestock
practices through scientific and technological interventions, germplasm
conservation, cold chain, processing, product innovation, value addition and
marketing networks. Accordingly, the department has identified the major thrust
area to be covered in the XI th
Plan period which are as under.
The action plan and strategy to achieve the goals set for the XI th Five
Year Plan period are as under:-
1. Cattle & Buffaloes Development
As detailed above the there is huge population of non descript cattle and
buffalo which are by and large low yielder and not suitable even for livelihood
support. The average per capita milk production of desi cow is below 1 liter. The
per capita availability of the milk in the State is 112.48 g. while at national level
the per capita availability is 232 g. Accordingly XI th Five Year Plan proposal
envisages to increase the productivity of animal through improved breeding
practices, better feed and fodder management and better integration with the
market. This will necessitate creating infrastructure facility for A. I. in new areas,
by providing A. I. equipment in existing vety hospitals, distributing quality bulls
of high pedigree in areas not covered under AI, castration of non descript and
scrub bulls, organizing training programmes for private AI workers through Live
Stock Agency and A. I. training Center Pakaria. It also endeavors to organize
infertility camps and cattle shows, Participation of private workers and NGO’s in
AI work will be largely encouraged.
2. Induction of Animals
The breed improvement programme through cross breeding /grading
up/selection is a time taking process. To give boost to the milk production and also
looking to the target for the XI th
Five Year Plan of increasing the milk production,
64
it is imperative to continue and expand the cow induction programme to cover
almost all tribal and scheduled caste dominated districts.
3. Goat & Sheep Development
Under beneficiary oriented programme it is proposed to distribute goats of
identified breeds to the ST & SC Farmers with the physical target of 5000 male
buck distribution & to Strengthen the Goat breeding Farm existing at Pakaria,
Bilaspur .
4. Poultry Development
During the XI th
Five Year Plan Period the department plans to encourage
backyard poultry farming as a part of livelihood support and income generation.
The department also endeavors to promote commercial layer and broiler farming
for gainful employment to unemployed youths.
5. Animal Health, Diagnosis and Disease Control
Creation of infrastructure facilities for timely detection of diseases and its
control are of paramount importance to sustain productivity and production in
livestock and poultry. As such State department plans to create disease diagnostic
network through out the State. To put forward the doctrine of “Prevention is
better than cure” the department proposes to take up more and more coverage
under livestock and poultry vaccination programme. The department also plans to
take up Entrepreneurship Development Programme for the delivery of animal
health inputs at the farmer’s door.
Under central sponsored scheme a proposal to establish nine Disease
Investigation Leberotaries is proposed .
6. Feed & Fodder Development
Animal feed & fodder is one of the greatest constraints in enhancing the
production & productivity of milk. Continuous supply of green fodder &
concentrate to the milch animal are proving to be challenge in dairy industry. In
regard to the dry fodder we are depending on crop residue i.e. Paddy straw, which
contains oxalates, phytates, etc. By Urea Molasses treatment we can increase the
nutritive value & the toxic material can be reduced. The department also plans to
establish fodder nursery and grassland reserve during this plan period.
65
7. Dairy Development
The present processing level is below 4 % of total State milk production of
8.3 lakh tonnes per annum. Enhancing processing level means going for value
addition which in turn will fetch better remunerative prices to the producer It is
proposed to increase the processing level from 4 to 15 % during XI plan period. It
will require providing processing facility for additional 5-Lakhliter milk per day
(processing facilities for 1.5 lakh liter per day exists). Under IDDP five chilling
cum processing units of total 50000 liter per day capacity are sanctioned under
Central Sector Schemes. In the year 2007-08 II nd
installment of Rs. 447.17 lakh
has been allocated.
As a part of quality assurance the department plans to take up clean milk
production strategy during XI th
Five Year Plan period. The department also
proposes to create milk booth, milk parlor and new dairy cooperative societies
with emphasis on women cooperative societies in order to enlarge the scope of
marketing network.
8. Other Activities
Under this head the following activities are contemplated to be under taken
during this plan period.
a. Piggery Development
Traditionally pig keeping is popular amongst the tribal population of
the State. As such the department envisages to promote this activity in
tribal dominated areas of the State under beneficiary oriented programme.
Further it is also planned to strengthen the existing pig farms at Jagdalpur
and Ambikapur.
9. Beneficiary Oriented Programme
As a part of providing livelihood support and income generation to the SC
& ST families living below poverty line the department proposes distribution of
buck and boar for improved breeding, pig unit (trio) and poultry unit for backyard
farming. Under this programme it is also proposed to enlarge the scope of bull
distribution and fodder tree plantation on subsidy basis. A sum of Rs. 10153.60
lakh is allocated for the year 2008-09 with physical target of 1,30,233
(Beneficiary).

Public Distribution system
Procurement of food grains under the price support scheme is a social
obligation of the State and Central Governments. The scheme was conceived to
ensure minimum support price to the farmer for his produce, to protect the ‘weaker
farmer’ from the ‘strong trader;’ and to prevent exploitation by middleman. The
scheme is an absolute necessity for a state like Chhattisgarh, which is
underdeveloped in agriculture, and comprise of large tribal population and marginal
farmers. With a view to achieve the intended objectives the State Government
operates many centers for purchasing paddy, wheat and coarse grains .The
Chhattisgarh State is one of the few states, where PSS is being successfully
implemented.
One of the schemes, namely, decentralized procurement which has turned to
be unviable because of insufficient assistance to State Government by GOI. Under
decentralized procurement of rice scheme, the state agencies have been procuring
paddy at MSP on behalf of FCI and after converting it into rice the required
quantity for Public Distribution System and other food grain based schemes is
accepted by the State Government and the remaining quantity is handed-over to the
FCI. The details of paddy and rice procured by the State Government and FCI in
last two Kharif Marketing Season is as follows:-

2004-05 29.04 9.00 6.80 7.40 52.24
An issue which has a bearing on the procurement of food grains under PSS
is the non-coverage of total cost of procurement. The incidentals are required to be
based on actual expenses of the previous year submitted by the State Government.
The estimated losses incurred in previous years for procurement of paddy are as
follows: -

Fig. in crore
S.No. Kharif Year Estimated Losses
1 2000-01 85.77
2 2001-02 357.54
3 2002-03 275.29
4 2003-04 539.02
GOI has revised the incidental charges of paddy procurement and CMR
rates for current Kharif year but it is still not up to the actual expenditure incurred
by the State Government at various stages on procurement of paddy and its
conversion into rice, Some of the notable points in respect of incidentals are:-
(a) Driage allowance for paddy provisionally allowed 1% of MSP against the
normal estimated driage of 2.00 to 3.00% of MSP.
(b) Commission to sub-agents societies is still 1% of MSP while State
Government is paying 2% of MSP to societies.
(c) No expenses allowed for transportation within 8 Kms.
(d) Storage charges for paddy provisionally allowed Rs. 184 per quintal whereas
the storage charge is much higher than Rs. 1.84.
(e) Milling charges for raw rice including transportation charges upto 8 kms
provisionally fixed by GOI is Rs. 15.00 per quintal whereas State
Government is paying Rs. 40.00 per quintal for conversion of paddy into raw
rice.
Consequent to the above revision in incidental charges, the agencies suffer
an over all loss of about Rs. 50 to 60 per quintal of CMR. Thus paddy procurement
has become a high loss making operation and there is a case for again revising the
incidentals/charges allowed for KMS 2005-06 on the basis of State's proposals.
Other grain procurement:-
Chhattisgarh State Civil Supplies Corporation is procuring wheat and maize
under price support scheme. The quantity of wheat and maize procured in
previous years is as follows:-
(Fig. in M.T.)
S.no. Year Wheat Maize
1 2003-04 62.30 2214.00
2 2004-05 19.40 10936.82
82
Enhancing private trade in food grains :-
Previously there were some restrictions on the trade of food grains and
agricultural produce mainly through Chhattisgarh Scheduled Commodities Dealers
(Licensing and restriction on hoarding) Order 1991.The 1991 order makes it
mandatory for the big traders to obtain license for dealing in essential commodities
scheduled in this order such as wheat, wheat products, rice, poha and pulses etc.
But in January 2004 the State Government rescinded the said Order and abolished
all the restrictions on the trade of food grains.
As far as the removal of restriction on inter-state movement of food grains and
agricultural produce is concerned, our state has no such restrictions. Traders and
producers are free to import and export these items to and from the state without
any hindrance. Under the state's voluntary rice levy policy, rice millers can give
certain percentage of their production to the Food Corporation of India at the
prescribed rates. No Levy Paid Certificate, Release order or Transit permit is
required for movement of rice under the free trade.

IX. Central economic services:- (numbering seems to be faulty )
4. Civil Supplies
1. Revolving fund to C.G.state civil supplies corporation Ltd.

Chhatisgarh State Civil Supplies Corporation Ltd. used to procure rice from
Markfed under decentralized procurement programme and distribute the same
under so many schemes. After receipt of such distribution, the amount received
shall be paid to the Markfed; which occurs an inordinate delay in payment to
Markfed. For procurement of paddy Markfed used to take loan on interest from
RBI and other Banks, due to delay in payment by Chhattisgarh State Civil
Supplies Corporation, Raipur to Markfed the interest on loan increases day by day.
Hence to over come this financial burden and early and timely payment by
Chhattisgarh State Civil Supplies Corporation, Raipur to Markfed State Govt.
provided a seed capital to Chhattisgarh State Civil Supplies Corporation. For the
financial Year 2008-09 Rs 150 crore is provided under this scheme.
2. Loan to Markfed for purchase of Bardana (Scheme No. 6777 ):-
In order to procure the paddy on marginal support price through Markfed, it
is need to provide Bardana in a huge quantity. To meet out the requirement state
Govt. provides loan to Markfed which is repayable by Markfed to the state Govt.
in the same financial year in which it is provided. Therefore, for the financial Year
2008-09 provision of Rs 200 Crore is made to meet out the requirement.

entitled to get 10 kg rice free of cost per month. Chhatisgarh Govt. starts this
scheme from October, 2001. As against the numerical ceiling of 0.26 lakh
beneficiaries 0.28 lakh ration cards have been issued in the state.
State Govt. is providing ancillary charge @ 42.00 per quintal for urban area
and 52.00 per quintal for rural area for transportation, other expenses of agencies
and commission to fair price shopkeeper. As for this present number of
beneficiaries and the quantity of rice lifted per month, this amount leads to about
Rs 2.00 crore per annum. As such, a provision of Rs. 1.94 Crore is made under
this scheme.
4. Antyodaya Anna Yojna (Scheme No. 5456):-
On the basis of parameters fixed by the GOI, poorest of the poor family in

and urban local bodies respectively. After necessary verification the competent
authority issues ration card and the family thus becomes eligible for getting food
grain and other essential commodities at prescribed rates from the FPS with which
its card is attached.
Antyodaya Anna yojana is central scheme but GOI is not providing any
amount for transportation, storage of rice and commission for lead agencies or any
other related agencies under the scheme. Hence State Govt. is providing ancillary
charges @ Rs. 42.00 per quintal for urban area, @ Rs. 52.00 per quintal for rural
area for transportation, other expenses of agencies and commission to fair price
shopkeepers. As per the present number of beneficiaries and the quantity of rice

(PACS) and LAMPS have their own building and reaming fair price shops
are operated in private building. The State Govt. has decided that in all
rural areas, shops must be located in govt. buildings, It should not be
operated from the residence of every individual. For the reason we require
at least 6000 shop cum go downs, each having capacity of 25 M.T. for
which a sum of Rs. 62 Lakhapprox. is required. During the year 2006-2007,
some shop cum god owns were constructed by panchayat department only.

DEPARTMENT OF COOPERATION
Introduction
The State of Chhattisgarh is under developed in co-operative sector.
Co-operative movement in Chhattisgarh has played a significant role in supporting
and sustaining the growth of agriculture development. It is envisaged that the role
of cooperative in agriculture has to be strengthened and enhanced to enable them
to play a strong supportive role through creation of agriculture infrastructure,
supply of agriculture inputs, making available adequate and timely credit,
marketing and processing agriculture produces.
The state government provides financial assistance in the form of
loan, subsidy and grant etc. through different credit societies to the farmers
affiliated to these societies for this purpose Government allocates funds to the
department under deferent schemes, which are made and implemented for social
welfare.
There is a three-tier co-operative credit structure in our state. Rajya
Sahakari Bank (Apex Bank) and State Co-Operative Agriculture and Rural
Development Bank are functioning at state level. There are six District Central
Co-Operative Banks and 12 District Co-Operative Agriculture And Rural Bank at
the district level. 1333 Primary Credit Societies and 154 urban credit societies are
affiliated to these district level institutions. The credit flows from top to bottom.

RURAL DEVELOPMENT
Approximately 45% of the rural families are below poverty line. The
percentage of BPL families is highest in Dantewada (64%) and lowest in Durg
district (34%). An aspect calling for attention is the distribution of the poor
between, very poor (those below 75% of consumption level at the poverty line)
and moderately poor (those between 75% and near the poverty line). Chhattisgarh
has 29.45% B.P.L under moderately poor category and 15.55% of B.P.L under
very poor category. The emphasis in the XI Plan period will be to bring this
moderately poor group above the poverty line. The aim is to achieve greater socio-
economic and infrastructure development, which will in turn raise the per capita
income and reduce the poverty.
Agricultural wage earners, small and marginal farmers and casual workers
engaged in non-agricultural activities, constitute the bulk of the rural poor. lakh of
access to agricultural land, paucity of work on land (wage work), non-availability
of education for enabling occupational diversification and shortage of capital is the
fundamental causes of poverty. Poor educational base and lakh of other vocational
skills also perpetuate poverty. Due to the poor physical and social capital base, a
large proportion of the people are forced to migrate to other states to seek
employment in extremely low levels of productivity and wages.
Percentage of Ground Water utilization is low at around 20.3% and is well
below the national average. The ratio of gross irrigation to gross sown area is 23%
which is much lower than the national average of 39%.The irrigated area as a
percentage of the sown area is among the lowest in the country(20.65%).The
intensity of irrigation is only 1.05 indicating that irrigation is mostly confined to
single season in the state. The percentage of irrigation varies from over 30% in
Chhattisgarh plains to 5% in Hill Zone and mere 1.23% in Bastar Plateau. .About
76% of the irrigation in the State is through canals. Among the BPL families the
worst sufferers are the labourers dependent upon agriculture. The focus of the state
government during the XI plan period would be to increase the agriculture area
and to provide assured irrigation at least for single crop to the small & marginal
farmers by developing small irrigation Schemes & renovation of existing canals
through various schemes of rural development.
95
Strategy for the Eleventh Five Years Plan
For the 11th Five Years Plan (2007-2012), the monitorable targets for rural
development sectors are as follows:-
• Generate additional employment and income for unskilled labours.
• Facilitate and improve delivery of other rural services.
• Increase area under irrigation and support diversification of
agriculture.
• Providing training for skill development in non-farm sector to
generate productive employment opportunities.
• Increase efficiency of the assets already created and to be created.
• Enhance democratic processes and skills among rural poor.
• Improve the quality of life of rural poor.
• Reduction of poverty ratio by 22 percentage points by 2012.
Approach
• Extend or to increase coverage under Watershed Development
Programmes and Employment Generation Scheme.
• Providing basic rural infrastructure to improve quality of life.
• Decentralized governance in programme planning and
implementation.
• Improving Credit linkages/Rural self employment through
federations of SHGS by providing better marketing infrastructure.
• Human resource development by providing quality training for skill
upgradation.
• Promotion of Information Technology (I.T) interventions in
information dissemination and public grievances redressal for better
vigilance and monitoring system.
Areas of Concern
Identification of key activity for cluster is very important. Although certain
activities are identified at the block level, micro level planning is yet to be done to
give fillip to the activities. lakh of good quality training institutions and Non
Government Organizations at the grass root level are hindering the progress of
implementation of schemes.
Available natural resource such as minor forest produce is to be used as raw
material for various economic activities to be identified at the block level. One
issue that needs to be addressed is the over dependency of rural families on
agriculture and allied activities. Diversification from traditional agriculture to
96
other land based activities such as horticulture, aquaculture, animal husbandry and
sericulture are getting attention.
Training is a week linkage in the scheme. lakh of good quality training
institutes greatly affects the success of the programme. Therefore it will be the
endeavour to establish regional training centers in different regions of the state and
to provide good quality training to the rural people.
Marketing strategy is an integral part of every self-employment venture.
Market intelligence has to be developed. Survey of local and urban markets to
understand product demand is necessary. Rural haats or village markets have to be
set up to position the products of self-help groups.
In the plan period Rural Haats will be established in important district
plakhes such as Raipur, Bilaspur, Durg, Korba and Rajnandgaon. Depending
upon the success of these rural haats it will be extended to other district head
quarters.
It will be the endeavour of the state to provide basic minimum facilities to
the rural masses to improve quality of life in the rural areas. Public facilities such
as Anganwadi Bhawan, PDS shop, Primary School building, Middle School
building, Primary Health Centre, etc will be built to cover as many villages as
possible through different schemes of rural development
Rural Infrastructure
Housing: To provide houses to every shelterless family, especially for SC/ST as
they constitute more than 50% of the total B.P.L families.
Rural Roads: To strengthen the rural connectivity is another major concerned
area for the State. Rural connectivity is a very crucial component for the
development of rural areas. The surface and unsurfaced road length at 21 km and
25 km per 100 sq km area respectively is one of the lowest in the country. Village
roads constitute about 80% of the road network in the state. This means that rural
connectivity would continue to be a priority area for the State Government.
Drought Proofing & Employment Generation
Because of the low irrigation percentage large number of labourers
dependent upon agriculture activity migrates to other parts of the country in search
of employment. The last four year figures indicate that on and average 60 % of
families that migrates are from three districts, Raipur, Durg and Mahasamund.
97
During the 10th
plan period 1402.76 lakh man days were generated through
different schemes of Rural Development. In the 11th
plan period this will be
doubled. Durable assets such as tanks, irrigation canals, and stop dams will be
created not only to provide employment to these members but also to increase the
irrigation potential of the State. This will help the marginal BPL families who are
just below the poverty line to come above the poverty line. Small users groups
will be constituted to maintain these structures.
Watershed Development
Agriculture is the main stay for the 78% rural population of the State. The
Agricultural economy of the State is characterized by dependence on nature, low
investments, low productivity, mono-cropping, inadequate irrigation facilities and
small & marginal holdings. A judicious land and water management policy
combined with efforts to bring more area under plough and double cropping will
improve the agricultural production and productivity.
About 80% of the total cultivable area comes under rainfed farming. The
rainfed areas/dry lands are characterized by low productivity and low input use.
Hence, rainfed areas can be developed based on watershed approach.
The implementing and monitoring units at district level and below will be
strengthened and scientific inputs will be provided to strengthen the planning
process through GIS. The state level watershed cell will also be strengthened for
effective implementation of these schemes.
Delivery Mechanism
All the programmes have been designed to eliminate the different facets of
rural poverty. The success of these programmes depend on the better
implementation. Successful implementation of these programmes require an
appropriate policy framework, adequate funds, and an effective delivery
mechanism.
It should have people's participation at every stage of the programmes.
Adequate staffs will be provided at the district and block levels for effective
implementation of different rural development schemes.
Administrative and financial devolution by the states to the PRIs will be the
main focus of 11th Plan. The Constitution has plakhed onerous responsibilities on
PRIs. They require financial resources to discharge the tasks assigned to them and
emerge as viable institutions of self-government. Financial devolution is also
98
desirable as the control of investment decision by local communities' leads to
better utilization of scarce resources.
The Panchayats (Extension of Scheduled Areas) Act (PESA), 1996
extended the Provisions of 73rd Constitutional Amendment Act, 1992, to the
Scheduled Areas of Chhattisgarh, The PESA enables tribals to assume control
over their own destiny and to preserve and conserve their traditional rights over
natural resources, including land. PESA would be effectively implemented during
the Eleventh Plan period to resolve the issues of tribal exploitation and alienation.
The Path Ahead
Programmes that provide self-employment and wage employment to the
poor and also to create durable infrastructure would be implemented with greater
vigour during the Eleventh Plan.
SGSY would provide opportunities for self-employment to the rural poor.
This would shift to process-oriented approach. Especially the formation and
strengthening of the groups would be supported to go into the second phase of
federation and cooperatives of the SHGs.
Network of institutions that promote the self help movement would be
created during the Plan period. Partnership would be forged between NGOs and
other community-based organizations, government agencies and other financial
institutions. There would be a system of identifying and training local facilitators.
Key activities would be planned to respond to the needs of the area.
Training programmes for beneficial linkages with training institutions would be
forged.
Greater attention would be paid to marketing. Marketing infrastructure at
the block/district level would be set up for display of products. Marketing
Linkages will be developed with private channels, industrial enterprises and export
houses for higher value realization for SGSY groups.
Special attention would be paid to provide technical support for upgrading
technology and standardization of products. Use of information and
communication technology would be promoted during the plan period in this
regard.
�The wage employment programme would have three streams which
would seek to address the need of rural infrastructure at the village level, ensure
guaranteed employment of at least 100 days in areas facing chronic
99
unemployment/migration and provide relief from natural calamities such as
droughts & floods and other contingencies.
The promotion of a movement which enhances social capital and forges
linkages with other formal and informal stakeholders engaged in developmental
activities would be a major thrust area during the Plan. PRIs have created a space
for the involvement of the community in governance. There is a need to provide
greater attention to effective empowerment of PRIs. The Government recognizes
the necessity of building capabilities at the local levels for planning,
implementation and monitoring of development programmes. These would be
undertaken on a large scale during the Plan period.
Human Resources Development
The State has about 5,600 Rural Development officials and about 1,59,000
Panchayati Raj functionaries, who are contributing in achieving the ultimate
objectives of the programmes. Training and skill upgradation of these
functionaries and officials at State SIRD, Regional Training Institutes, Rural Haats
and Facilitation Centers would be one of the priorities of the State in the coming
years.
ANNUAL PLAN - 2008-09
Chhattisgarh over the passage of time has witnessed many development
alternatives as far as the States prosperity and development is concerned.
Government has also taken up issues, which are on the top priority of the people.
With an objective to further reduce the rural poverty and make rural poor self-
sufficient, several Centrally Sponsored Schemes are implemented in the State. The
State also runs a few additional schemes from its own financial resources.

PANCHAYAT
Panchayat Raj has been in operation in the undivided State since 1994. The
Panchayat Raj system has been not only widely accepted in Chhattisgarh, but has
also contributed to the holistic and overall development of the State. At the same
time, since the Panchayat Raj concept is essentially the fulcrum of development, it
is necessary to further strengthen the system in a way that it can reflect the current
efforts aimed at revitalizing and strengthening the Panchayat Raj Institutions.
Panchayat Raj in Chhattisgarh
1. On the recommendation of the 'Balwant Rai Mehta Committee', the
Chhattisgarh Panchayat Raj Act, 1962 came into force in the State with effect
from 1st April 1963. As a result of this the 3 tier Panchayat Raj Institutions started
functioning from 12th April 1963.
2. Consequent to the 73rd Amendment of the Indian Constitution, Article-243

mandatory provision. Reservation for women in respect of
Chairpersons of the Panchayats to the extent of 33 per cent is a
unique feature to promote representation.

population of the respective groups in the Panchayat area, provision
of reservation for SC and ST not less then 50 per cent of the total
seat, and reservation of 25 per cent for OBC in respect of
membership and chairpersons of these bodies is a step further to
ensure their representation.
iv. The Sarpanchs of the village Panchayat is to be elected by the
villagers directly.
106
v. In respect of Panchayats of the Scheduled Area,, at least 50% of the
membership of the Panchayat is to be reserved for the ST and all the
posts of the Chairperson of such Panchayat body is also to be
reserved for ST.
vi. An independent State Election Commission has been established.
vii. The First State Finance Commission has already submitted its report
to the State Government.
viii. The Annual Budget should be prepared and approved within the
stipulated time.
ix. The Act provides for devolution of functions as listed in Schedule
11 of the Constitution to the respective village, Block and District
Panchayats.
x. The meetings of the Gram Sabha are being held at all revenue or
forest villages as per the provisions in the Chhattisgarh Panchayat
Raj Act, 1993. All the voters of the village are the members of the
Gram Sabha as per the Constitution. "Every year four Gram Sabha is
being held" as per Section 6 of Chhattisgarh Panchayat Raj Act,
1993.
xi. 'Provision to transfer of certain functions already done under any
enactment to Panchayats', provide for further devolution of powers
and responsibilities with respect to development plans and
implementation of certain schemes. These provisions have been
added to give effect to the Constitutional provisions of Chapter IX
and Schedule XI.
3. The 29 subjects listed in the 11th Schedule of the Constitution are also
enumerated in the State Act. It may be Stated that a large number of activities are
already being performed by the three-tier Panchayats. Out of 29 activities listed in
the 11th Schedule, 28 activities are transferred to the 3 tier Panchayats.

Tribal sub-plan, MADA and Cluster Pockets (V scheduled Area)
During the preparation of fifth plan it was felt that the amount invested
by the different development departments of the State Govt. is not sufficient for
the development of tribal areas. Also there was a need to make fundamental
changes in the development programs / schemes of the department taking into
account the specific nature of the tribal areas.
So strategy of "Tribal sub-plan" was adopted for the overall
development of scheduled tribes residing in the tribal areas. Provisions were
made for the financial resources, budget arrangements, monitoring &
evaluation of the proper & smooth functioning of the plan / scheme. "Integrated
Development" was the key aspect of the program and hence "The Integrated
Tribal Development Projects" were setup to implement the schemes/programs
for the development of the areas & tribal population ensuring the involvement
of various development departments.
The Tribal & Scheduled caste development department of the State govt.
was entrusted with the responsibility of "Nodal Department".
Under the concept of "Tribal Sub-plan" initially such Tahsils were
covered where Tribal population were 50% or more of the total population of
the Tahsil. Afterwards development blocks having more than 50% tribal
population were covered.
The I.T.D.P. projects were setup for the tribal population in the areas
having more than one lakh population, for the tribal dominated areas having
less than one lakh population were covered under the medium projects. At
present 19 ITDPs are functioning in the State. The ITDP Nagri, District
Dhamatari is the only major project, which was setup after the formation of the
State of Chhattisgarh.
In the 6th plan period, the tribal areas and group of villages having
population more than 10 thousands with more than 50% ST population of the
total population were marked as "Modified Area Development Approach" more
commonly known as "MADA" pockets. At present 9 MADA pockets are
functioning in the State. Similarly in the seventh plan period small pockets
termed as clusters were identified where population was 5000 or more and the
scheduled tribe population was more than 50% of the total population. There
are two clusters in the State out side the boundaries of TSP area .
Districts of Sarguja, Korea, Jashpur Korba, Bastar, Kanker, Dantewada
are covered fully & rest of the nine districts are covered partially under the
tribal sub-plan. The 85 Tribal Development blocks are fully covered in the sub-
plan area. The geographical boundary of the tribal sub-plan area is 8800 sq.
k.m. which constitutes 65.12% of the total area of the State.
111
As per the census of 2001 the population of sub-plan area is 81.013 lakh
which is 45.49% of the total population of the State. Scheduled tribe
population is 46.86 lakh in the sub plan area, which is about 54.48% of the
total population of the sub-plan area.
Each Development department must earmark 38.00% of the total plan
outlay for the development of the TSP area. The demand number 41, 42, 68,
77, 82, 83 are created in the State budget to ensure that the amount allocated
for TSP area must not be used elsewhere.
The Tribal and Scheduled Caste Development Department prepares the
budget of Tribal Sub-Plan.The financial requirements are met with the
provisions made in the State plan, Special Central Assistance, Central Sector
Scheme and Centrally Sponsored Schemes.
For the tribal and scheduled cast development, Department's proposed
plan for the year 2007-08 was for Rs. 43115.93 lakh, which is 80.56% of the
total plan outlay. The proposed outlay for the Eleventh five year plan is Rs.
187469.60 lakh.

plan period,
Kamars in the 6th
plan period and Birhors in the 7th
plan period were given the

Present Scenario
Chhattisgarh is the ninth largest state, but ranks 17th in population with just
over 21 million inhabitants. Chhattisgarh is rich in natural resources and retains
44% of forest cover, which supports livelihood activities, especially for tribal
residents. The agriculture sector contributes about a third of State's economic
output. An estimated 45% of the State's population live below the poverty line.
Scheduled tribes and scheduled casts make up 45% of the population with an
estimated 57% living below the poverty line.
Water Resources Development and Irrigation
Increasing the productivity of agriculture is vital to the overall development
of economy, improvement in rural livelihood, and poverty reduction.
The pace of Water Resources Development has been accelerated to increase
the net water availability by creating additional storages, completion of ongoing
projects and improvement in water use efficiency, bridging the gap between the
potential created and its utilization through restoration and modernization of old
irrigation system, conjunctive use of ground and surface water by constructing
anicut and adopting tube well / lift and drip irrigation systems, promoting
Participatory Irrigation Management (PIM) and large scale people's participation
in water conservation programme.
The Annual rainfall of the state is about 1,300 mm and average availability
of surface water is about 59,900 Mecum every year. After considering reservation
of riparian rights of downstream states, Chhattisgarh can utilise about 41,719
Mecum of Surface water currently, but at present it is utilizing about 13,200
Mecum of surface water (31.64%). The available Ground water resources of the
State are estimated as 13,678 Mecum, whereas the utilisation is about 2,742
Mecum (20.40%) only. At present about 17 lakh hectares of irrigated land exists,
which is about 29% of gross sown area. According to an estimate, about 26 lakh
hectares additional potential can be developed to make a total of 43 lakh hectare
irrigated area in the State. The State will be adding 8 lakh hectares of new irrigated
area during the current 5-year plan.
Looking to rapid construction and early benefits, construction of minor
irrigation reservoirs are being proposed. Diversion works are given priority to
avoid submergence of valuable forestland. Augmentation schemes are being
proposed to save water in existing reservoirs for use in additional command areas.
122
Similarly lining of the existing old canal Systems are also being taken up to
reduces the water losses and ensures optimum utilization of available water
storage in the state.
Under Hydrological Project Phase-I, an integrated Hydrology Information
System (HIS) was established covering data related to various hydrological
parameters. World Bank assisted Hydrology Project Phase-II will implement
activities towards improved planning and design of water resources department.
The project has been launched in April 2006 and the cost of state component is Rs.
21.51 Crores. The project period is 6 years.
Target for Irrigation during XIth
Five Year Plan
The state has an ultimate aim of creating a potential of 43 lakh hectares
with a view to raise the irrigation up to 75% of the gross cropped area.
The target for creating of 3.60 lakh hectares was set for Xth Five Year Plan
and the achievement is 3.11 lakh Hacts.
A target for creating of potential of 3.5 lakh hectares from surface water &
0.50 lakh hectares from shallow tube well schemes, with addition of 4.00 lakh
hectares from private tube wells / lift schemes has been set for XIth
five year plan.

3. Gap between created and utilized Irrigation Potential
At the end of 2004-05 irrigation potential created was 16.26 lakh hectares
(Kharif 13.44 lakh hectares + Rabi - 2.82 lakh hectares) whereas the utilization is
10.50 lakh ha i.e. about 65% overall and 78% for Kharif.
Utilization is low primarily due to single crop (paddy) cultivation in the
State. The main issues are low water use efficiency and tendency to grow water
intensive crops like rice. Increase in efficiency could help in making water
available to increased irrigated area. Also, many of the existing irrigation projects
in the State are operating below their potential due to operational and maintenance
deficiencies.
To minimize the gap between created and utilized potential following steps
are being taken.
1. Rehabilitation work of 59 minor tanks with CCA 20998 hectares of
Kabirdham District costing Rs. 53.80 crores which has been completed in March
2006 under "National Restoration of Water-Bodies" project.
2. ERM work of some of the medium and major projects is being taken up.
Ongoing work of Kodar, Pairi Jonk and Tandula ERM (Lining) works is proposed
to be completed in 2007-08.
3. Under the Asian Development Bank assisted Chhattisgarh Irrigation
Development Project (CIDP), rehabilitation of old 200 minor and 20 medium
schemes covering about 2 lakh hectares will be taken up during XIth
Plan period. It
will restore the irrigation areas that farmers can effectively use, to at least 90% of
their designed potential (currently actual utilization of minor irrigation schemes is
only about 40% against created potential). Over 120,000 farmer families shall be
directly benefited from various Renovation & Up-gradation (R&U) activities.
127
Under the Project, over 2,00,000 ha. of land will receive R&U, resulting in a 50%
incremental increase in Kharif paddy production & 200% incremental increase in
Rabi-cropping.
There is provision to ensure Social Mobilisation and build awareness and
the CBOs will build awareness and organize farmers and WUAs to undertake: a)
an active role in designing and implementing R&U, b) effective 0&M and share
management with Water Resources Department (WRD), and c) adopt agricultural
innovations focusing on enhancing khariff production and rabi diversified
cropping with matching water management schedules. CBO will undertake
capacity building associated with these interventions, facilitating WUA
involvement in credit, marketing and other agricultural inputs. She/He will assist
WUA manage conflicts; assist in self Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) of
WUAs and in Project M&E; and engage in any other relevant responsibilities
assigned by the Supervisor.
Under CIDP (Scheme no. 5678) the proposed outlay for the year 2007-08 is
Rs. 51.30 Crores.
4. Under the National Rural Employment Guarantee Programme the work of
renovation of large number of projects in 10 districts would be taken up on priority
basis.
5. Participatory Irrigation Management (PIM)
Under the Asian Development Bank assisted "Chhattisgarh Irrigation
Development Project" (CIDP) it is proposed to strengthen the capacity and roles of
WUA's. The election for new WUA's have been conducted and the formation of
Farmer's Organization has been completed by 5/2007.Now CIDP will provide
agricultural support services for systems that have undergone R&U.
6. Command Area Development (Scheme no. 874, 2823, 3436, 5593, 6304,
6305)

Electricity is considered to be one of the most reliable indicators for
progress and prosperity of a country and is the most important element of
infrastructural sector, on which thrives the national economy. Therefore, XIth
Five
Year Energy Plan for the State of Chhattisgarh has been prepared keeping this
perspective in view.
While preparing the XIth
Five Year Plan for the State of Chhattisgarh in
respect of power, attempt has been made to imbibe upon the guiding principles as
stipulated in the Electricity Act, 2003. These are :-
i) Plan of generation, transmission and distribution conducive to
development of electricity industry in the State.
ii) Promoting competition.
iii) Protecting consumers’ interest.
iv) Supply of electricity to all areas.
v) Rationalization of electricity tariff.
vi) Promotion of efficient and environmentally benign policy.
vii) Introducing regulatory regime.
viii) Transparent policies regarding subsidies.
ix) Reforms
Sustainable development and CDM are the other thrust areas which have
received focus for vision 2012 on power development in the State of Chhattisgarh.
Overall integrated development through synergy of generation, transmission and
distribution has been the aim to be achieved by means and measures visualized in
this plan document.
The aspect wise details are briefed as follows:-
Demand forecast, Availability & Load Management
The State of Chhattisgarh since inception has been facing peak power
shortages, the magnitude increasing year by year which at present had assumed
serious proportions. The peak power shortages are likely to continue upto 2009-
10. With the commissioning of Power Stations within the State, the peak power
shortage, which would be of the order 30% at the beginning of XI th
Five Year
Plan, would come down to 7.5% by the end of 2009-10. By 2010-11, the State will
assume power surplus status. By the end of XIth
Five Year Plan i.e. 2011-12, the
State would be surplus in power almost by 3000 MW with reference to peak
demand. Till the year 2009-10, when the shortage continues, the demand
management will have to be arranged by bilateral power purchases and by
introducing load shedding measures.
132
The optimization in demand management is intended to be achieved
through introduction of time differential tariff also which would result in flattening
of the load curve. If the commissioning of Power Stations, as scheduled,
materializes, the surplus generation of almost 2800 MW will have to be sold to
the deficit States/prospective buyers. The growth of demand in the State of
Chhattisgarh in the initial stages, after its bifurcation from the erstwhile State of
Madhya Pradesh has been phenomenal up to 14% which has come down to 10%
by 2006-07. Further saturation of load growth would not yield a growth rate of
more than7% by the end of XIth
Five Year Plan i.e. 2011-12.
The growth of demand in the State will largely depend on the industrial
policy of the State Government and especially on heavy power intensive industries
in the State. Taking into account the historical factors and based on the experience
over the years, demand forecast has been made for the XIth
Five Year Plan based
on the fading memory algorithm which is expected to be true to a large extent.
Thus XIth
Five Year Plan would be a turning point as far as power
situation in the State is concerned.
Power Generation Scenario
CSEB has planned for commissioning of Thermal Power Projects of
almost 5420 MW and Hydel power of 560 MW. The State has vast reserve of coal
which is estimated to be 35,000 Millilon Tonnes, sufficient for electricity
generation of 35,000 MW for 100 years.
Similarly, the State has a potential of 1250 MW Hydel generation in
addition to 500MW Bodhghat Power Station on Indrawati River. Thus there is a
large potential of pit head fossil fuel based power generation in the State. In
addition to the Thermal and Hydel generation, there is a potential of 1000 MW to
be generated from Coal Bed Methane (CBM). The Electricity Act, 2003 lays stress
on environmentally friendly and sustainable development. Attention has been paid
by the State Govt. to harness the potential for electricity generation from non-
conventional and renewable sources. Wind power, Small Hydro Power, Solar
Energy, Biogas Energy, Biomass Gasification and Biodiesel from Jatropha can
contribute to a sizeable electricity generation in the State and would form
backbone of sustainable development.
For maximization of power generation from the existing plants,
renovation and modernization of 4 x 50 MW and 2 x 120 MW sets have already
been completed and R&M of 4 x 210 MW sets at Korba (West), has been planned
to be undertaken during the XIth
Five Year Plan, in stages, after commissioning of
2 x 250 MW sets at Korba (East) (New).
133
The Electricity Act, 2003 and National Electricity Policy have recognized
the importance of Captive Power Plants and their contribution towards
development of electricity industry. Therefore, the Government has adopted a
liberalized Captive Power Policy. The existing CPP capacity in total is 1900 MW
and during the XIth
Five Year Plan, the captive power generation is likely to go up
to 4000 MW.
The State provides a convenient power generation site for pit head
generation and therefore, it has attracted a number of IPPs totaling to 4500 MW
capacity. Some of the IPPs have a vision plan for expansion in the capacity upto
4000 MW.
Thus as far as power generation in the State is concerned, it has a
tremendous potential and the State is scheduled to become an important power hub
in the country. However, it has to be kept in mind that the State's precious reserves
of resources are preserved / utilized in optimum manner for the welfare of the
State.
Co-Generation And Non-Conventional Energy Sources.
There is only one Cogen plant in the State at Kawardha with generating
capacity of 6MW, which has been commissioned during the month of August 06.
As far non-conventional sources of energy are concerned, they are being dealt by
CREDA directly under the control of the State Government. 4 x 2.5 MW set at
Gangrel and 2 x 3.5 MW set at Sikasar Mini Hydel plant are also under service.
Transmission
With the estimated load growth and for evacuation of power from the
proposed power stations EHV lines will have to be constructed for transmission
of power from the generating stations to the load centers.
The earlier figures submitted by CSEB to the CEA/Central Planning
Commission has been suitably revised to suit the requirement of power evacuation
from power projects and looking to the estimated load growth at load centers. As
per revised updated plan the following EHV lines would be required to be built
during XI th Plan.
400KV lines - 3694 Ckt. KM.
220KV Lines - 2185 Ckt. KM.
132KV lines - 2506 Ckt. KM.
134
All the proposed lines are double circuit and double stung lines. 3 Nos.
400KV Sub-station, 8 Nos. 220KV Sub-station and 21 Nos. 132KV Sub-stations
have also been planned for completion during the Five Year Plan. To do the above
work a plan outlay of Rs.5228.01 Crore would be needed. It has been proposed
that 100% expenditure on transmission would be financed through loan from
PFC/REC/Financial institutions.
From the plan of power development vis-à-vis growth of load, the State
would be surplus of power by the year 2009-10. This will require transmittal of
power to the other needy States, who would be in need of power at that time. For
this purpose inter-State lines are proposed to be built by Power Grid, who are
nominated as Central Transmission Utility for developing inter-State links, which
would ultimately culminate into formation of National Grid.
Distribution
Electricity Act 2003 in section 4,5,6 provides for the rural electrification
through on-grid and through off-grid (stand alone system) system. Sec. 6 provides
for supply of electricity to all the rural areas including villages and hamlets. The
Central Government has fixed a programme for 100% village electrification and
electricity to all households by the year 2012 i.e. by the end of XIth Five Year
Plan. Rural electrification programme and development of rural areas have been
planned through the following measures:-
1. RAJIV GANDHI GRAMEEN VIDYUTIKARAN YOJNA

CREDA
Major activities:
1. Rural Electrification (Scheme no. 5415):-
At the time of inception of CREDA, there were about 1250 unelectrified
villages in the State of Chhattisgarh. Most of these villages were situated
in dense forest and as such it was not possible to electrify these villages
through conventional power. Hence these villages were required to be
electrifies through non conventional energy sources. Since the formation
of CREDA, 524 villages and 75 hamlets have been electrified through
Solar Energy thereby benefiting above 25000 families. From the year
2006-07, energy from biomass and biofuel is also being tapped for rural
electrification.
During the year 2008-09, about 100 villages are proposed to be electrified
with an outlay of Rs.1520.00 lakh. Initially CREDA is planning to
electrify the villages inhabiting up to 100 families.

Revenue from Minerals Mineral revenue target for 2006-07 was Rs. 824.62 crore against which the mineral revenue contributed Rs. 832.35 crore to the State exchequer which is Rs. 94.50 crore more as compared to the mineral revenue of Rs. 737.85 crore received during the year 2005-06. During 2006-07 revenue received from major mineral was Rs. 786.82 crore and from minor mineral was Rs. 45.53 crore. Foremost contribution to the mineral revenue is from Coal. During the financial year 2006-07 Coal contributed mineral revenue of Rs. 639.58 crore, Limestone Rs. 70.76 crore, Iron ore Rs. 47.72 crore, Bauxite Rs. 19.71 crore, Dolomite Rs. 5.09 crore and Rs. 3.96 crore from other major minerals. Gram Panchayats have been sought to be empowered by transferring to them sand quarries in their area and allowing them to collect royalty on sand and use it for local development works.
Proposed mineral revenue target for the year 2007-08 is Rs. 977.38 crore.
During the year 2007-08 following two schemes currently launching by the department:- 1. Revenue receipt during 2006-07 from mineral resources shall be distributed
during 2006-07 to the three tier Panchayati Raj Institutions for which Rs. 1112.27 lakh proposed in the plan.
2. During 2006-07 provision of Rs. 1000 Lakh has been made for expenditure
from Chhattisgarh Mineral Development Fund for the activities of
161
Chhattisgarh Mineral Development Corporation and Directorate of Geology and Mining.
Development of Mineral Resources: Coal is the main mineral Resource of the State and its availability at competitive prices to local units is critical for industrial development of the State. We understand that the Central Government is in the process of formulation of a new policy for allocation of coal areas for captive mining. Any such policy must provide for fully meeting the coal requirement of the local units. The draft policy need to be shared and discussed with the coal producing States and their concerns should be addressed. This is necessary also for the reason that matters of access to coal mines located in the forests in the Scheduled Areas and statutory clearances particularly relating to forest and environment are processed by the State Governments. In Chhattisgarh forest area is 44% and revenue forest area is 12%. Most of the mineral bearing area of iron ore, coal, bauxite, tin , corundum etc. are located in forest area and the exploitation of these minerals is hampered due to the stringent provisions of Forest Conservation Act, 1980. There is a need to evolve sustainable solution for grater availability of these Mineral Bearing Forest Area for mining activities. Optimum utilization of mineral deposits located in the northern and southern part of the State is not possible due to lack of railway and road infrastructure in these areas.

VILLAGE & SMALL ENTERPRISES (VSE)
(I) KHADI AND VILLAGE INDUSTRIES BOARD (KVIB)
The main aim of Khadi Board is to generate employment opportunities in
rural area and to strengthen rural economy through such employment generation. The Board has been generating employment through thread spinning, weaving of clothes, financing family based projects up to 1.00 lakh under State Government Funded Scheme of Government of India. The approach for the year 2008-09 is as given below:
1. The thread spinning will enhanced considerably as it provides employment
to household women. So for this task was done in the shades constructed for the purpose where the Board employed a manager. In the next Five-Year Plan, the quantum jump will achieved by doing spinning task through Self-Help Group (SHGs) of women. With this process, one manager can manage, say, 10 groups thus generating 10 fold employments. All thread so produced will be weaved through additional weavers trained for the purpose. Present employment is 215 which are slated to go up to 1500.
2. The Board has already started motivating staff for doing more cases under
Margin Money and Family Based schemes. Both the targets will double. A 3-fold increase will be seen under these schemes during this Five-Year Plan.
3. For creating better entrepreneurs and motivated staff of the Board a training
center will be established at Raipur.

Development through Democratic Governance’) and believes Information and
Communication Technology (ICT) is a particularly important medium for the
State in reaching out and improving livelihoods specially for its overwhelming SC
/ ST population across 44% forest area, which had largely remained untouched by
modern development.
The State of Chhattisgarh recognizes the importance of Information and
Communication Technology as a key enabler in its economic development and
improving the quality of life.
The State seeks to create a knowledge society where access to information
and knowledge would be symmetric amongst all seekers and users and every
citizen must feel comfortable in accessing information through IT – directly or
through public - private partnerships.
Accordingly, the State has prepared its IT policy with a vision of establishing an
information society consisting of informed, active and therefore responsible
citizens – the basic tenet of a true democracy. It seeks to provide all citizens
widespread and easy access to government services, in the local language
effectively addressing the existing digital divide and promoting entrepreneurs.
To realize its vision, the IT policy lays considerable stress on building a
comprehensive IT infrastructure down to blocks and villages. This would not only
help improve access, it would also help in bringing social development by
supporting rapid economic development, facilitate distance education, improve
levels of education and attract investment.
Some of the major IT initiatives in the State of Chhattisgarh are as follows:
1. STPI-Bhilai (Scheme no. 5032):- STPI was set up for development of
IT and ITeS industry in the State. As per the MoU with STPI, IT

CHAPTER – IX
FOREST& WILDLIFE
Forests & People
With 44.21% of its geographical area as recorded forest area and 41.42%
forest cover, Chhattisgarh has the 3rd largest forest cover in the country. As per
the Forest survey of India's report of 2003, 2.75% of the forest cover is dense,
66.86% is moderately dense & 30.39% is open forest. Chhattisgarh is one of the
few States, where dense forest area has increased significantly i.e. by 1100 sq. km.
after the formation of the State. Identified as one of the richest bio-diversity
habitats of the country, the forests of Chhattisgarh are the backbone of tribal (32%
of total population) economy. Harnessing the true potential of forests is a key
imperative for development in Chhattisgarh.
The forests of the State fall under two major forest types, i.e., Tropical
Moist Deciduous Forest and the Tropical Dry Deciduous Forest. Sal (Shorea
robusta) and Teak (Tectona grandis) are the two major tree species in the State.
Other notable overwood species are Bija (Pterocarpus marsupium), Saja
(Terminalia tomentosa), Dhawra (Anogeissus latifolia), Mahua (Madhuca indica),
Tendu (Diospyros melanoxylon) etc. Amla (Embilica officinalis), Karra
(Cleistanthus collinus) and Bamboo (Dendrocalamus strictus) constitute a
significant chunk of middle canopy of the State's forests.
Biogeographically, the State falls in Deccan bio-region comprising
representative fauna of central India like the tiger (Panthera tigris), leopard
(Panthera pardus), gaur (Bos gaurus), sambhar (Cervus unicolor), chital (Axis
axis), nilgai (Boselaphus tragocamelus) and wild boar (Sus scrofa). The State is a
proud possessor of rare wildlife like the wild buffalo (Bubalus bubalis) and hill
myna (Gracula religiosa), which have been declared as the State animal and bird
respectively.
Over the years, the forests in the State have suffered serious depletion. This can be
attributed to relentless pressures arising from ever-increasing demand for fuel
wood, fodder and timber; inadequacy of protection measures; diversion of
forestlands to non-forest uses without ensuring compensatory afforestation and
essential environmental safeguards; and the tendency to look upon forests as a
revenue earning resource. As per the F.S.I. report of 2003, 17018 sq. km. of forest
area is degraded (density less than 0.4).
221
Average annual production from forests is 1,60,000 cmt. of timber,
1,80,000 fuel stacks, 26,000 Notional Tonne of Commercial Bamboo and 45,000
N.T. of Industrial Bamboo. Besides timber and bamboo, on an average 18 lakh
standard bags of Tendu patta, 4 lac quintal of Sal seed, 60,000 quintal of Harra
worth Rs. 350 crores is collected annually. State Government does not earn any
revenue from the trade of NTFP, as all the profit from the trade is returned to the
collectors in form of Bonus and investment in local infrastructure works. Total
annual revenue from forests is Rs. 210 crores. As per the Nistar and Grazing
policy of the State people get small timber, fuelwood, Bamboos, fodder and Non-
timber forest produce from the forest free of cost or at subsidised rates. Value of
these produce is approximately Rs. 1100 crores annually.
State has 3 National Parks and 11 Wild Life Sanctuaries and 1 Biosphere
reserve which are rich in fauna and flora. State has 1 Project Tiger Area spread
over Indrawati National Park. Govt. of India have given their assent for inclusion
of Achankmar, Sitanadi & Udanti sanctuaries in Project Tiger scheme.
The activities of the forest department mainly relate to forest & wildlife
protection, conservation, scientific management and development of forests as per
the approved Working Plans.
Because of widespread availability of medicinal plants the State has been
declared a 'Herbal State'. Steps have been taken to conserve and develop medicinal
plants with the active involvement of local people.
As per the State Forest Policy local people are being involved in protection,
development & management of forests. Under the Joint Forest Management 7820
Committees have been formed.
222
Annual Plan 2008-09
I. State Scheme 1 Management of Forests - Implementation of working plan :
As per the provisions of Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980, all forests
are required to be work as per the Working Plan approved by the Government
of India. Working plans are prepared in keeping with the principles of
sustainable forests management. In Chhattisgarh, all felling, silvicultural
operations and maintenance of forests are being carried out as per the
prescriptions of Working Plans duly approved by Ministry of Environment &
Forests, Govt. of India. The permission for the harvesting of the forest is
accorded by GoI on the basis of area regenerated. It is therefore, necessary to
implement the provisions of Working plans which provides employment in
lean season and ensure livelihood security to the tribals.
1.1 Rehabilitation of Degraded Forests (Scheme no. 2962 and 2965) :
As per FSI Report of 2003, 17018 sq.km. of forest area is under-
stocked/ degraded. Degradation of forest has led to steep decrease in
production of forest produce and employment generation in rural areas. As
the economy of forest dwellers, mostly tribals is dependent on forests, top
priority has been given to rehabilitation of these areas through coppice
regeneration and afforestation under the scheme of Rehabilitation of
Degraded Forests (under scheme no. 2962 and 2965). Under the scheme
all coupes under Rehabilitation Working Circle are treated. In addition
degraded orange areas and degraded areas in other working circles are also
proposed to be treated. It is proposed to take up 70000 hectares of degraded
forest for treatment during 2008-09. In addition to above 2,05,000 ha. area

It needs sincere efforts to increase tree cover in these areas. The tree
planting on bunds of fields, homesteads, block planting on farmlands and
community lands, road side plantations and plantation on other waste land needs
due priority. This will increase tree cover in forest deficient areas that would help
improve environment and local climate.
Schemes relating to Increasing of tree cover in areas outside the forest
2.1 Environmental Forestry (Scheme no. 2536) :- Under this scheme, plantations are done mostly in urban areas for
improving the environment. The maintenance of spot of recreation like Smriti
Van, Botanical gardens is carried out under this scheme. It is proposed to plant 10

4. Forestry Research Scheme
4.1. Forestry Research (Scheme no. 5089) :-
Forestry Research is an essential component of forest management. There
are three research and extension center in the State one each at Raipur, Bilaspur
and Jagdalpur. These research center need adequate financial support for carrying
out research. The scheme aims at improving the quality of planting stock, selection
of suitable species for Agro-climatic Zones. Present requirement is totally
inadequate because of which no new research has been taken up in recent past.
During 2008-09, a provision of Rs. 80.00 lakh has been proposed.
4.2. Establishment of State Forest Research Institute (Scheme no. 1859) :-
To give boost to research in the forestry sector in the State, the State Govt.
has decided to establish a State Forestry Research Institute at Raipur. The estimate
on establishment of the research institute is to the tune of Rs. 29.05 crore out of
which Rs. 2.50 crore has been deposited with the Chhattisgarh Housing Board for
the construction works. An amount of Rs. 260.75 lakh is proposed for part
construction of SFRI and salaries of staff during the year 2008-09.
The proposed State Forest Research Institute shall promote forestry
research in the State, which will work towards increasing the productivity of the
229
forests, promote research in sustainable harvesting of MFP, processing and trade
in minor forest products, resulting in economic upliftment of forest dwellers, agro-
forestry, quality seed production and certification of seeds.
MFP and Medicinal Plants : Chhattisgarh having 44 percent geographical area under forest is very rich
in NWFP resources. These produce are used by rural communities as medicine
and food. Moreover, the rural communities earn substantial income especially
during non-agriculture season through the collection and sale of these produce.
Currently, trade in nationalized NWFP is organized and controlled by the
Chhattisgarh State Minor Forest Produce Co-operative Federation. Besides State
Vanoshdhi Board has been established for developing medicinal plant sector in the
State.

The unorganized trade of non-nationalized NWFP/Medicinal plants has
led to low collection prices to the collectors and unsustainable harvesting of MFP
from forest areas. Moreover, most of the NWFP based processing and industrial
units are mainly located outside the State. However the NWFP sector has great
potential for ensuring sustainable livelihood in backward areas. With sustained
effort, Chhattisgarh can become market leader in producing quality goods of MFP
if processing is promoted.

these 7820 Joint Forest Management Committees. Chhattisgarh is one of the few
States, where dense forest area has increased by 1100 sq. km. as per FSI report of
2003. One of the main reasons for this significant achievement is the contribution
of Joint Forest Management Committees in protection of forests. Different income
generating programmes like Lac Cultivation, Kosha and Silk cloth making,
Apiculture, Pisciculture, Dona Pattal making, Cultivation of Medicinal Plants,
Processing & Value Addition of NTFP, extension of irrigation facilities, extension

Wildlife and Biodiversity Conservation
There are 3 National Parks, 11 Sanctuaries and 1 Game reserve in the State
covering an area of 8023 sq. km., which is 13.42% of the total forest area of the
State. Due to paucity of funds most of these Protected Areas (PAs) have
inadequate infrastructure for protection, management and development of wildlife
habitat. These areas have huge potential for development of wildlife. Hence
infrastructure development and Management planning for all the Protected Areas
will be a priority in the XI Five Year Plan.
The State has given priority to Biodiversity Conservation by allocating 13%
of its total forest area for meeting this objective. State's rich floral & faunal
biodiversity, dense forests, beautiful landscapes and rich biocultural heritage has
the potential to attract tourist to the State. Ecotourism can generate thousands of
jobs in forest areas. Development of Nature Tourism potential by exploring and
developing nature conservation & cultural heritage sites with local communities as
primary beneficiaries would be the focus during the 11th Five Year Plan.
Huge investments would be essential in order to mitigate ever rising
human- wildlife conflicts in the State, implementation of wildlife management
practices and development of crucial corridors between National Parks &
Sanctuaries through areas outside PAs. Protection, development of infrastructure
in wildlife habitats in P.A's and other forest areas, biodiversity conservation &
development of eco-tourism will require Rs. 212 crores during the 11th Five Year
Plan.

CHAPTER – XVI (A)
A. HEALTH STATUS:
Chhattisgarh’s health status has shown steady improvement over the last
five years since its creation. Nevertheless it remains one of the EAG states of
northern India whose health status as adjudged by a number of indicators is weak.(
see table 1 below):-
S. No Indicator National
Average
Chhattisgarh
Average
1 2 3 4
1 Birth Rate 23.80 27.20
2 Death Rate 7.60 8.10
3 IMR 58 63
4 MMR 301 309 +
5 Child Malnutrition (Under 5) 45.90 52.1
6 Sex Ratio 9330 989
7 Decadal Growth Rate 21.04 18.60
The major influences on these basic health status indicators are the social
determinants of health – levels of poverty and inequity, malnutrition, access to
safe drinking water and sanitation, access to gainful employment and levels of
education. After these social determinants the next important determinant is the
access to primary health care services backed by an adequate referral arrangement.
In the social determinants there have been positive developments in some areas
especially in the decadal increase in girls education, but in other areas like the
nutritional status the situation remain grim. As regards access to primary health
care services the state had to develop strategies to overcome the problems of
geography- remote scattered habitations in forested and hilly areas, the socio-
economic barriers, as well as cultural barriers – a diverse ethnic groups steeped in
traditional practices some of which are valuable, but some of which prevented
access to modern health care.
The state has done relatively better in the area of sex ratio and fertility
control largely because of a better gender equity situation and increasing women’s
education of these indicators IMR is most useful as reliable data is available
annually from the SRS surveys and it is possible to co-relate with health service
provision and access.
275
Infant Mortality Rate: The IMR was 79 in the year 2000 – at the formation of the state. It dropped
to 60 in the year 2007-08.
At the same time the all India total IMR had also declined from 70 to 62 – a
decline of 8 points as compared to Chhattisgarh’s decline of 10 points. The catch
up is all the more dramatic in rural IMR where Chhattisgarhs rural IMR declined
by 34 points over 5 years whereas all India rural IMR has fallen only by 5 points
in this period (from 74 to 69). Chhattisgarh this started its statehood far behind
national rural IMR – by 21 points and in three years has narrowed it to only 10
points.
This is an outcome of our two key strategies strengthening of routine
subcenters services and the 60,000 strong community health volunteer workforce
of the Mitanin programme and if we persist with this we hope to have caught up or
crossed the all India rural IMR figure. In contrast urban IMR, where sub-centers
are weak and there is no Mitanin programme has seen a rise of IMR from 49 in
2000 to 58 in 2001 ( which is an artifact as the year 2000 figure was culled out of
the unified sample with MP and could not have been accurate, and has since fallen
by only two points to reach 56 in 2003( with an unexplained dip to 51 in 2002).
We also note that the ratio of male to female IMR ( a sensitive gender
equity index ) puts CG at an achievement level of 1.09 which is the fifth highest
amongst all major states.
We hope to touch an IMR of 40 by the end of the plan period provided we
are able to able to persist in both these key areas- strengthening routine sub-center
services. and continuing at the same pace with the Mitanin programme.
On maternal mortality there are no figures available but in parallel to IMR
we hope there has been a decline as some components like the provision of
antenatal care would have increased in parallel. However since institutional care
especially for obstetric emergencies have been slow to develop.
B. Health Care Services in Chhattisgarh :-
According to 2001 census the total population of Chhattisgarh is 2.08 crore.
Given the relatively poor penetration of the private health sector and the economic
condition of the people one has to depend largely on public health system to
deliver the health care services.
276
The public health system to do this has developed the following public
health facilities:
Public Health Facilities
Sr No Items No.
1 District Hospitals 16
2 Community Health Centers 133
3 Primary Health Centers 707
4 Sub Health Centers 4692
5 Urban Family Welfare Center’s 16
6 Rural Family Welfare Center’s 10
7 Civil Hospital 13
8 Urban Civil Dispensary 21
9 Leprosy Hospital 2
10 Poly Clinic 1
Below is brief description of the key health facilities and their status as of date:
Sub Health Centers :- Sub centers are the most important peripheral govt.
service unit providing primary health care services to the rural population of the
state . According to the prescribed norms one sub center is established over
5000 rural populations in plains and on every 3000 population in tribal, backward
and difficult areas. Total no. of SHCs are 4692.Out of these 1558 SHC buildings
are running in govt. buildings,172 SHC buildings are under construction. So there
is urgent need to construct buildings for remaining 2962 SHC. Efforts are being
made to provide govt. buildings to all these institutions.
Primary Health Centers :- It is a very important govt. health institution in the
rural areas where community comes to direct contact with the Medical Officer for
getting the medical care services. The population norms for the establishment of
primary health centers is, one for every 30,000 rural population in plains and on
every 20000 rural population in tribal, backward and difficult areas. So far, the
required numbers of PHCs on the population norms basis have been established
out of which only 325 PHCs are functioning in govt. building, 140 buildings are
under construction. Thus there is still a shortage of 242 buildings. So there is
urgent need to provide buildings to these institutions.
Community Health Centers :- In order to develop an effective referral system
so as to provide specialist treatment facilities to the rural masses very close to their
dwellings, the establishment of community health centers at least in block level .
277
133 community health centers are functional in the state. 48 CHC buildings are
functioning in govt.buildings, 26 buildings are under construction and there is a
shortfall of 59 buildings. Efforts are being made to provide govt. buildings to these
institutions.
District Hospitals:-
There are 16 district hospitals sanctioned & functioning as per norms. Another
created two new Distt. at Bejapur & Narayanpur Will be Started as soon as.
Manpower required To fulfill the gaps in Facilities: The State is still lakhking 1725 Doctors, 2239 Paramedical staff and 1425
Technical staff according to prescribed norms. This is a matter of great concern
and it impedes the achievements of key goals.
C. NATIONAL RURAL HEALTH MISSION (NRHM):
This Mission is conceived as an umbrella programme subsuming the
existing programmes of health and family welfare. Its goals now define the whole
health sector’s goals.
The main goals enunciated are:
a. a commitment to provide effective health care to the rural population with
special focus on 18 states.
b. To ensure integration of health concerns with determinants of health like
sanitation and hygiene, nutrition etc
c. Decentralize the management of health.
The Ten components of NRHM it sets out are:
1. ASHA- Accredited Social Health Activist- which is the Mitanin
programme in Chhattisgarh.
2. Strengthening sub-centers
3. Strengthening Primary Health center
4. Strengthening CHCs for first referral care
5. Making for a district health plan
6. Converging sanitation and hygiene under the NRHM.
7. Strengthening disease control programmes
278
8. Public private partnerships for public health goals including regulation of
private sector.
9. New Health financing mechanisms.
10. Reorienting health/medical education to support rural health issues.
The NRHM would be including all the family welfare programme under
RCH-II as well as all the National Disease Control Programmes (Malaria, TB,
Blindness, HIV leprosy etc.). The existing Mitanin Programme is also included
in this Mission.
Proposed Annual Plan outlay for 2007-08 for NRHM is Rs 125.00 Lakh- inclusive
of RCH-II the NRHM special initiatives, accelerating immunisation and all the
disease control programmes.
Most of the NRHM funds would flow through the state and district health
mission and only a part of it, especially the salaries component which would
be part of the state plan.
Constructions of Buildings for Health Facilities( Capital Costs).
These seven schemes given below relate primarily to capital costs for construction
of health facilities. As may be seen from the table below. The gaps are huge and
therefore the present budgets only are a first step in the direction.

E. National Rural Health Mission: Reproductive and Child Health
Component:
The Reproductive and child health programme has been implemented in
the state since formation of the state. The present programme includes all the
components of maternal and child health services like child survival and safe
motherhood, safe MTP services, family planning services, RTI/STI and AIDS.
The aim of the programme is to see that evey pregnant woman receives care at
delivery, that every delivery is assisted by a skilled person and is preferably
institutional, that every child is immunized and well nourished and received
prompt care for ARIs, diarrhea and fever, that there is a referral service available
for every patient needing emergency obstetric care or emergency neonatal care.
The aim of the Reproductive and child health programme is also to include the
confidence in the couple so that they can maintain sexual relationship without fear
of pregnancy and contracting disease and they have the ability to plan and have a
child when so desired. The couple is also looked after and treated for RTI/STI and
AIDS .All Districts of the state are being covered under the programme.
For year 2007-08 following goals have been projected as under:-
(i) Birth Rate 22
(ii) Infant Mortality Rate 40
(iii) Total fertility Rate 2.6
(iv) Skilled Safe Delivery 75
(v) ANCs 85
The key to these services is through strengthening routine services in the
sub-center and PHC with good referral back up provided by the CHC and district
hospital.
Also to ensure access to these services and provide community level care
by better community participation mediated and increased community awareness
that would be ensured by the Care voluntary supportive workforce of the Mitanin
programme.
As regards the availability of contraception methods/materials, it has been
ensured that the target couple receive them from the plakhes nearest to their
residences. The programme is being run totally on voluntary basis. The target
couples are given full choice to select any method of their liking. Sterilization,
Laparoscope’s, Tubectomy are very popular in the state as Laparoscope’s have
been provided to almost all CHCs. We hope to achieve a couple protection rate of
65% which would lead to a total fertility rate well below the national average.

Rural drinking water supply is, to a large extent, dependent on
ground water (85%). Though ground water is less sucep to pollution, the quality
problem in ground water is inherent in the form of contamination caused by the
very nature geological formation, viz. excess fluoride, arsenic, brackishness, iron,
etc. The reasons for chemical and bacteriology, contamination are: poor hygienic
conditions around the water sources, improper disposal of sewage and industrial w
water, callous disposal of solid waste, indiscriminate use of chemical fertilizers
having high quantity of Nitrates used in agricultural sector, pollution from
industrial effluents (untreated), over-exploitation leading to quality degradation,
pollute the source due to ignorance of the people, over-population and lakh of
public awareness. The ground water level has depleted resulting in surfacing of
quality problems due to higher concentration of the contaminants in the depleted
sources of Inadequate recharging also aggravates the problems of chemical
contamination emphasis is necessary.
For effective planning, monitoring and implementation of various being
given on tackling water quality schemes relation to arsenic, Iron fluoride, nitrate and
salinity. Presently 9586 iron 10 fluoride 18 arsenic, 171 salinity affected other 82 have
been identified.

URBAN HOUSING, URBAN PROJECT &
STATE CAPITAL PROJECT
A. URBAN HOUSING
State Housing Policy :
The housing policy of the state is in line with the National Housing
and Habitat Policy as well as the Global shelter adopted by the United Nations, in
November, 1998. The aim of this housing policy is to ensure dwellings with
necessary support infrastructure for all its citizens in the next ten years.
The specific objectives of this housing policy are:-
• Shelter to be provided to all homeless rural families on subsidized
rates on priority basis.
• Assist all the citizens of Chhattisgarh and in particular the rural poor
to, secure for themselves affordable dwellings.
• Remove legal and administrative barriers for robust housing
activities in the State.
• Mobilize resources and ensure increased investments in housing by
promoting strong partnerships among public, private, co- operative,
self-help groups and local government institutions.
• Promote integrated housing development for the establishment of
viable, socially and economically integrated communities situated in
areas which allow convenient access to economic opportunities as
well as health, educational and social facilities.

There are around 6.6 lakh Houses in the urban area of the state. Out
of this around 24000 Nos. of houses are not worth living. There are around 3.7
lakh houses which belong to lower income group.
Housing for economically weaker section (EWS):-
Chhattisgarh is one of the few states where 15% of the land has been
reserved for economically weaker section of the society in any layout of a colony.
303
This land is used for implementing housing schemes for EWS. There are housing
schemes for poor and economically weaker section of the society.
Atal Awas Yojna (Scheme no. 4385):-
Influx of people from rural areas to urban areas in search of
employment is an ongoing phenomenon and, if no remedial measures are taken in
the direction of providing dwelling for such homeless labour and poor people, all
the efforts of slum up-gradation would be in vain and in all probability, new slum
will come into existence. With this view the State Government has started state
sponsored Housing Schemes namely "Atal Awas Yojna" in the State under the
Tenth Plan. The scheme has been revised in the year 2006-07 and all the block
headquarters of the State whether it is in the urban or rural areas have been
covered under this scheme.
The objectives of the revised "Atal Awas Yojna" are as follows:-
(i) Catering the future housing demand of the people below poverty line
belonging to Schedule Castes, Schedule Tribes and other
economically weaker section of society.
(ii) Proper and judicious utilization of land reserved for people belonging
to economically weaker section under different housing schemes.
(iii) Ensuring active people's participation in the housing projects to be
implemented for EWS.

CHAPTER – XIX
LABOUR
The healthy force or workers play an important role in the economic and
industrial development of the State and the society. Besides other obligations, it is
responsibility of the State to ensure reasonable and safeguard the workers from
any form of exploitation. Besides, their working and living conditions should be
improved as this will further improve the socio-economic condition of the works.
The department’s activities consist of :-
• Maintain industrial peace and resolving industrial dispute by
conciliation.

317
in the lab by the analyst, it cannot be authenticated. And thus any action
taken without the sample analysis against the factory management can not
stand in the court of law and ultimately the same detrimental condition is
allowed to prevail in the working environment which results is ill health of
workers and cause occupational diseases to them. Thus the proposed lab
would be essential.
