APPROACH TO XIth FIVE YEAR PLAN IN RESPECT OF COMMUNICATION SECTOR

UNDER PWD ARUNACHAL PRADESH

I. ARUNACHAL PRADESH-AN OVERVIEW 1.1 Land and climate

Arunachal Pradesh is a infrastructure deficient frontier state. Lying in the

north-eastern tip of the Indian subcontinent it is bounded by long international

borders of about 1628 Km with Bhutan to the west, China to the north,

Myanmar to the east. It also shares interstate boundary with Assam and

Nagaland in the south. With an area of 83,743 sq.km, it is the largest

geographical entity in the whole of North-Eastern region. The State’s

topography is predominantly hilly and it is traversed by many major rivers and

their tributaries, all discharging into the Brahmaputra. About 82% of the

geographical area of the state is under the cover of forests which support a

diverse spectrum of flora and fauna. The state receives high precipitation with

annual rainfall exceeding 2500 mm and substantial snow melt in the upper

reaches.

1.2 People

It is a Schedule Tribe majority state with ethnically diverse 25 major tribes.

With total population of 1.10 million (as per the 2001 census) the density of

population stands as 13.11 persons per sq.km, the thinnest in the country.

Over 75% of the people live in villages which are widely scattered with many

located in remote interiors close to the international borders. There has been a

tendency for in migration of people from rural pockets in remote areas to urban

centres and potential growth centres which have seen galloping increases in

population. The high growth rare of urban population could also signal influx of

people from outside.

1.3 Economy

Earlier the economy was largely driven by a vibrant forest based industry. A

roaring timber industry of logging, sawing, veneering and ply making saw a

premature demise due to the Supreme Court order restricting such operations.

2

Subsistence agriculture is the main occupation of the indigenous people. There

has been substantial development in horticulture with apples, oranges,

pineapples, kiwi fruits, large etc. grown in various pockets of the state. The

potential for further growth is unlimited. Tea plantation is coming up in a big

way in Tirap, Changlang, Lohit, Lower Dibang Valley and East Siang districts.

The great potential for cultivation of medicinal and aromatic plants is yet to be

tapped.

The state is also endowed with immense potential for development of hydro-

power, estimated to be around 50,000 MW, the third of the country. It also has

deposits of coal, oil, limestone, graphite, etc.

There is also great potential for development of tourism sector in the state. The

great rivers, the high mountains, dense forest with species rich flora and fauna,

and the ethnically divers people - all these could support adventure tourism, eco

tourism, cultural tourism. Tourism industry in the state, however, is yet to take

off mainly because of the problem caused by communication bottleneck.

1.4 Problems of communication

The major stumbling block standing on the path to development of Arunachal

Pradesh is the bottleneck in communication. In the absence of other mode of

transport, road is the only reliable means of communication in the state. But

the road development in Arunachal Pradesh is yet to reach take off stage. With

the density of road standing at 18.65 Km/sq.km, (national average 84 Km/100

sq.km and NE average 60 km/100 sq.km) the state has the lowest road

development index in the country.

A large number of administrative centres and the majority of the villages in the

state still remain unconnected.

In places where there is a landing ground or a helipad, there could be limited air

service through helicopters of the Pawan Hans Ltd. or IAF services however, are

restricted to supply of essential commodities, evacuation of patients, VIP

movement or defense needs.

3

The remote locations not linked by road are also served through a network of

porter/mule tracks. With construction materials and essential items carted

through head loads, development efforts in these areas are prohibitively costly

and the progress extremely slow.

1.5 Vulnerability to natural hazard

Forming a part of Zone-V, in the seismological map of the country, the state is

highly vulnerable to earthquakes. Many major earthquake have been seen in the

state including the one of more than 8 point on the Richer scale that occurred

on 15.08.1950. During major calamities like earthquakes, landslides, or floods,

the road communication could be snapped or remain severely affected, leading

to problem of reaching essential commodities and relief materials to the affected

areas and people. Further, disturbance of road communication will also be

adversely affect other development activities.

4

II. DEVELOPMENT IN COMMUNICATION SECTOR - PRESENT STATUS

2.1 Roads under different agencies

From a near “clean slate” state at the time of Independence, with just a few dirt

tracks barely totaling 160 Km in length, the Arunachal Pradesh can now boast

of 15619 Km of road network developed by various agencies like the State PWD,

the BRO, the Rural Works Department, the Department of Environment and

Forest etc. through different programme such as State Plan, North Eastern

Council, Central Road Fund, Rural Infrastructure Development Fund, National

Highways, General Staff Road, China Study Group road etc. The agency wise

break up of road lengths are given below:

Table 2.1 Roads in Arunachal Pradesh under different agencies.

Sl.No Agency Length in Km

Source of funding

1) PWD 6692.00 NH/MDR/ODR State Plan/ NEC/CRF/NH

2) BRO 4524.00 NH/ODR/MDR NH/GS/CSG 3) RWD/Forest 4403.00 ODR/VR State Plan/

PMGSY/Project Total 15619.00

Note: NH-National Highway, MDR-Major District Road, ODR-Ordinary

District Road, VR-Village Road.

With other modes of communication like railways, air services, inland water

transport almost non existent, road is the harbinger of all developments in the

state, and the means for delivering services in the social sector programmes like

in the health, the education and poverty alleviation.

Road development in Arunachal Pradesh also assumes a national importance

because of the strategic needs of the defense forces guarding the long

international borders with the three neighboring countries of Bhutan, China

and Myanmar.

2.2 Density of road

With a large geographical area of 83,734 sq.km the state has an average road

density of 18.65 Km per 100 sq.km which is the lowest in the country (National

5

average 84 Km per 100 sq.km and the North-Eastern average 60 Km per 100

sq.km).

2.3 General deficiencies of roads

Much of the existing road network is just able to provide marginal connectivity

only because of the general shortcomings like the need of bridges on major

water gaps, inadequate provision of cross drainage structures and weak

pavement. The pavement profiles of the roads under PWD are as follows:

1) Earthen-2917.25 Km 2) Metalled-1693.69 Km 3) Carpetted-2081.12 Km

Future road development plans will have to provide for taking care of these

deficiencies.

2.4 Connectivity positions

Out of 157 administrative centres in the state as many as 30 still remain

unconnected. A list of the administrative centres showing their connectivity

positions is enclosed as Annexure 2.1. Then again, out of the 3880 villages (as

per 2001 Census), 2489 are yet to be connected. The connectivity status of the

villages in the state are shown below in Table 2.2.

Table 2.2: Connectivity status of villages in Arunachal Pradesh

S No Population No of

habitations connected

Left out habitation

Total habitation

1 2 3 4 5 1 1000 + 139 33 172 2 500-999 183 82 266 3 250-499 264 216 480 4 <250 805 2157 2962 Total 1391 2489 3880

It may be seen that 76% of the villages in the state has populations less than

250, which is the threshold population for qualifying under PMGSY programme

in hilly or desert states or areas.

2.5 Higher cost of construction and maintenance

Because of the hilly topography with fragile slopes; the needs for multitude of

bridges over numerous rivers and streams; the large number of culverts and

6

lengthy drains required for discharging high surface runoff from heavy rainfalls

and snowmelt; and also the vulnerability to earthquake and other natural

calamities like landslides, floods etc., construction and maintenance of roads in

the hilly state of Arunachal Pradesh is not only cost intensive but also difficult.

2.6 Lack of inter district connectivity

A state having vast area with arial distance of over 600 Km from eastern to

western tip and the distance from the plains of Assam to the international

border on the north being more than 150 Km, at places and with the added

problem of poor road infrastructure, communication from one district of

Arunachal Pradesh to another often involves incursion into the territory of

Assam, the geographical hub of the North East region, with which this state

shares interstate boundary of over 700 Km. It thus involves avoidable extra cost

and travel time. Travel through Assam, on the other hand, is also uncertain and

often unsafe due to floods, frequent bandhs etc. Hence, there is an urgent need

for inter district highway network within the territory of Arunachal Pradesh.

This aspect will need special attention in the future plans.

2.7 Porter tracks and foot bridges

The PWD continues to maintain over 5150 Km porter/mule tracks and more

than 5400 mtrs of foot suspension bridges located on these tracks. Though, as

per Business Allocation Rules of the Government of Arunachal Pradesh, the

subject should be under the Rural Works Department, the efforts to hand over

these tracks to RWD for further maintenance and upkeepment has not been

successful mainly for want of clear administrative direction.

2.8 Landing ground and helipads

In the past some 13 landing grounds were developed at different locations of

Arunachal Pradesh. Of these, ten LGs, viz. Ziro, Daporijo, Along, Mechuka,

Pasighat, Tuting, Yingkiong, Anini, Tezu and Vijaynagar catered to services of

fixed winged planes like Fokker Friendship, others, carribows and later 20

seater Dornier aircrafts, since discontinued. Presently AN-32 planes are

operating defense sorties to three LG viz. Mechuka, Tuting and Vijaynagar.

7

Some 100 helipads of different capacities catering to MI-8, MI-17 and Chetak

helicopters were also constructed. Besides these, some helipads have also been

developed by Border Roads and the Army.

III. 10TH PLAN UNDER STATE SECTOR – PERFORMANCE REVIEW

3.1 The development activities undertaken by PWD Arunachal Pradesh through

State Plan under Communication sector falls under two sub-heads:

a) 5054 & 3054 - Road & Bridge

b) 5053 & 3053 - Civil Aviation

ROAD & BRIDGE SECTOR PROGRAMME

3.2 Plan size of 10th Plan

Against actual releases totaling Rs.483.56 crores under Road & Bridge sector of

PWD during 9th Plan, the corresponding size of 10th Plan was agreed at

Rs.806.41 crores. Against this the actual allocations conveyed upto 2005-06

worked out to Rs.396.55 crores only. Including the anticipated outlay for 2006-

2007 the final 10th Plan outlay could stand at Rs.537.10 crore only.

3.3 Yearwise outlay and expenditure

The yearwise allocations and expenditures during 10th Plan including the

anticipated expenditure for 2006-07 are indicated in the Table 3.1.

It is observed that the outlays and expenditures under different Annual Plans

during 10th Plan period matched evenly. However, in the spread of outlays and

expenditures against different schemes and sub-heads, it could have been a

different story.

3.4 Physical targets and achievements

The yearwise physical targets and achievements during different Annual Plan

periods of 10th Plan upto the financial year 2005-2006 are given in Table 3.2.

As can be seen from the Table, that the physical achievements on ground have

generally failed to match the yearly targets set. The reasons for this mismatch

need to be ascertained though no definite trend is discernible immediately.

9

3.5 Funding programme under State Plan. Funding of works under Road & Bridge sector through State Plan consist of the

following:

1) Normal grant

2) Central Road Fund (CRF)

3) Rural Infrastructure Development Fund (RIDF)

3.6 Programme under Normal grants

Till the end of 8th Plan, most of the road network developed by PWD had been

funded as normal free grants without being tied to earmarked programmes.

From the onset of 9th Plan, the free grant component of the State Plan reduced

drastically with good chunk of funds being earmarked as ACA under CRF or

loans under RIDF from NABARD. Then again, because of the large geographical area and poor road infrastructure

in existence, the funds available under State Plan, especially the unearmarked

normal grants, have not been near adequate to meet the ever increasing

demands.

Maintenance load. Erosion of Plan funds also occurred due to the need to

earmark funds for revenue type expenditure for maintenance of assets. This had

to be resorted to because of non-allocation of maintenance funds under Non-

Plan. Funds earmarked for maintenance works by apportioning Plan funds had

been pegged around Rs.15.00 crores per year.

The allocations against individual schemes under free grant thus have tended to

get diluted because of the depletion of resource. This has adversely affected the

physical achievements on ground thereby causing time and cost overrun.

Porter tracks and foot bridges. Besides the normal Roads and Bridge

programmes, the PWD has also been undertaking construction and

maintenance of porter/mule tracks and foot bridges under state plan through

normal grant only without any designated allocations. There are around 100

porter/mule tracks with aggregate length of over 4150 Km. There are also a

large number of foot suspension bridges with total length of over 5400 m,

10

located mostly in the inaccessible areas in the remote upper reaches. The 30

unconnected administrative centres of the State and numerous villages

unlinked by road are served through these porter/mule tracks.

Spillover schemes. There are as many as 1031 schemes likely to spill over to

11th Plan. Of these 88 are last mile schemes with investment of above 80%.

There are also 160 schemes with financial progress from 60% to 80%. Adequate

funds could not be mobilized for completion of these schemes because of the

general resource constraints under State Plan. An analysis of the ongoing

schemes is given in Annexure 3.1.

Inclusion of new schemes. Public pressure also tended to cause aberration in

planning process with induction of new schemes in the face of many ongoing

schemes. A solution of this problem could come only through strong political

will.

Problem of revised estimates. There are also over 445 schemes needing

revised or re-revised sanctions. The process of obtaining revised sanction is

getting more complicated because of the long time overrun and lack of clarity

about the procedure often dictated by the State Finance.

3.7 Programme under CRF

The Central Road Fund is a designated fund for development of road

infrastructure and other related activities like road safety, research in the field

of highway and transportation, capacity building etc. The fund is generated

through cess on consumption of petrol and diesel. The CRF is administered

through the Ministry of Shipping, Road Transport and Highways, Government of

India. Allocations are made as ACA and actual releases are made against

submission of UC. The programme is subgrouped into three categories (1)

Normal or state category with 100% funding from the Ministry

(2) Inter State Connectivity (ISC) category with 100% support from GOI and

(3) Economically Important (EI) category with 50% of the cost funded by the

Centre and 50% borne by the State Government as state share.

11

So far 30 schemes under CRF normal category have been taken up under PWD

at total sanctioned cost of Rs.114.10 crores. Besides these, one scheme under

ISC category and one schemes under EI category are being executed by the

Department. Another scheme for construction of bridges on Dambuk-Paglam

road has been accepted in principle for funding under ISC category.

Of the 30 state category schemes, 13 schemes have been completed. The total

investment upto 31.03.2007 including the anticipated expenditure during 2006-

07 would worked out to Rs.85.05 crores. The one ISC category scheme is

nearing completion. As many as 4 state category CRF schemes are also likely to

be completed during 2006-2007.

The remaining 13 schemes under state category, the one under EI category and

one under new the ISC category scheme are likely to spill over beyond 10th Plan.

Details of the 33 schemes taken up under the three category of CRF are given in Annexure 3.2 enclosed.

3.8 Programme under RIDF

Rural Infrastructure Development Fund (RIDF) is a loan scheme of the Centre

for infrastructure development in rural areas. It is administered through the

National Bank of Agricultural and Rural Development (NABARD). Under different tranches of RIDF loans from RIDF V to RIDF-XI, the PWD

Arunachal Pradesh took up 22 road and bridge projects at a total cost of

Rs.238.83 crores, with a loan component of Rs.198.71 crores. Out of these, 7

projects costing Rs.34.62 crores (with a loan component of Rs.27.24 crores)

have been completed and the remaining 14 schemes are in different stages of

completion with one scheme being abandoned. Some 6 schemes will be

completed during 2006-2007. As many as 8 schemes are expected to spill over

beyond 10th Plan with financial implication of Rs.37.69 crores. Details of the

sanctioned RIDF projects are enclosed as Annexure: 3.3. 3.9 Other minor programme

Besides above normal programmes under 5054 & 3054 Road and Bridge sector

under State Plan, some minor road and bridge schemes are also taken up under

12

State Plan through funding from the Department of Tirap & Changlang (DOTC).

The scheme selected are need based and planned for completion within a year

and should normally not spill over. However, it is seen that priorities and

investment decisions change with change of Legislators.

CIVIL AVIATION SECTOR

3.10 Landing grounds and helipads

PWD also undertakes construction works of landing ground and helipad under

Civil Aviation sector with funds administered by Civil Aviation Department.

During the 10th Plan period upto 2005-2006 budget coverage to the tune of

Rs.322.01 lacs (Eastern Zone only) was received.

13

IV 10TH PLAN PROGRAMMES UNDER EXTERNAL FUNDING-PERFORMANCE REVIEW

4.1 Programme under external funding

Under external funding outside the State Plan the following programmes were

taken up during 10th Plan.

1) North Eastern Council (NEC)

2) Non-lapsable Central Pool of Resources (NLCPR)

3) National Highways

4) Special Accelerated Road Development Programme

5) Additional Central Assistance

6) Project Specific Assistance

7) Rashtriya Swam Vikash Yojana (RSVY)

4.2 NEC Programme

Completed projects. Till the end of 8th Plan as many as 17 projects in

Arunachal Pradesh covering 1 bridge and 16 roads with aggregate length of

1272.40 Km had been completed combinely by the PWD and BRO under

funding from NEC. Details of the roads are enclosed as Annexure: 4.1.

Maintenance obligation. Over the years, some cross transfers of roads have

taken place between the PWD and BRO. A few roads have also been included

under General Staff (GS) road programme of the Defense Ministry. Thus at the

end of 10th Plan (2002-2007) there will be 12 completed NEC roads in

Arunachal Pradesh with total length of 680.00 Km and maintenance obligation

of Rs.12.25 crores per annum (taking the maintenance yardstick @ Rs.1.80

crores per Km per year based on the norms as recommended by the Ministry of

Shipping, Road Transport and Highways).

9th Plan projects. During the 9th Plan as many as four road projects were taken

up. The details are given in Table 4.2 below. Of these the first project has been

completed. The remaining three projects taken up under the Prime Minister’s

Initiative for NE region shall be completed by March 2007.

Survey & Investigation. The list is enclosed as Annexure:4.2. Of these finally

only four projects were shortlisted as given in Table 4.2 below. One of the

possible reasons for heavy decrease in the number of projects finally selected

from the list earlier approved for S & I works could be NEC’s preponderance

with interstate category of projects over economic importance category. Out of

the four projects finally approved, EFC clearances have been obtained in respect

of the first two projects. As regards, the remaining two projects, EFC clearance

from GOI are still under process. All these four projects are likely to spill over

beyond 10th Plan.

4.3 National Highway

Present programme. The coverage of NH programme in Arunachal Pradesh is

rather poor. The total length of the three existing National Highways in the State

viz. NH-52, NH-52A and NH-153 is limited to 419.33 Km. Of this 386.81 Km

covering NH-52 and NH-52 is under the BRO and the remaining 32.52 Km

pertaining to NH-153 is under PWD. The details are given in Table 4.3 below.

Originally the NH-52A was under State PWD. Subsequently it was transferred to

BRO under a directive from the then Ministry of Surface Transport (MOST), now

MOSRT&H.

Later the NH-153 covering a part of the old Stillwell Road from Jairampur to

Pangshu Pass has been entrusted to PWD Arunachal Pradesh. The works are

being executed through Direct Payment system. Barring the construction of

bridges, the other works covering cross drainage structure and widening and

pavement are in an advanced stage. The total outlay received against this work

till March 2006 works out to Rs.16.19 crores. The details of works undertaken

against NH-153 are given in Annexure: 4.3.

4.4 Projects under NLCPR

The Non-lapsable Central Pool of Resources is a facility under the Central

Government created by pooling of the resources of the Central

Ministries/Department accrued due to shortfall in expenditure from the

mandatory 10% of the gross budgetary support (GBS) to be utilized in NE region.

During the financial year 2005-2006, the Ministry of DONER sanctioned 13

road and bridge projects to a total cost of Rs.17988.30 crores under NLCPR.

Proposals have been submitted for obtaining confirmatory AA & ES of the State

Government. Tendering and mobilization processes have been initiated. Actual

implementation of these schemes will begin in earnest from the current FY.

Thus all these projects are likely to spill over beyond 2006-07. The details of the

projects are enclosed as Annexure:4.4.

17

4.5 Projects under SARDP-NE

Programme and phases. The Special Accelerated Road Development

Programme for the North Eastern Region (SARDP-NE) is a new initiative of the

Central Government for development of road infrastructure in NE region,

covering both NH and state roads.

The programme originally consisted of three phases viz. A, B and C. Phase A

consisted of programme for four laning or two laning of selected stretches of

existing NH network to be undertaken through the National Highways Authority

of India (NHAI) as BOT projects. Under Phase B all district headquarters and the

state capitals in the North-East are to be linked by double lane or improved

single lane roads to the nearest National Highway network. As many 11 road

and bridge projects from Arunachal Pradesh with aggregate length of 1757 Km

and at total projected cost of Rs.1757 crores were included under Phase B. The

list is enclosed as Annexure: 4.5. Of these three roads of length 92 Km

belonged to the PWD while the remaining roads and bridges were GS roads

under BRO.

The Phase C programme consisted originally of the 8 roads in border areas of

Arunachal Pradesh which had been submitted before the Foreign Secretary

during his visit to Aruanchal Pradesh during 26 and 27 August, 2004. The

original list of 8 roads of aggregate length 1243 Km including the Indo Myanmar

road and two inter-basin roads estimated to cost Rs.1272 crores are enclosed

under Annexure:4.6.

Later, one road under Phase C viz. Road from Lumla to Tashigaon via

Dudumghar (36 Km) was transferred under Phase A. The remaining seven other

projects of Phase C were finally merged with Phase B.

Non of the projects selected has however, been started on ground. There is lack

of clarity about the agencies to take up the different projects. Mainly because of

this the preparation of DPR has been slow.

18

4.6 Other programme

Besides the above programmes, some road construction are being taken up under

One Time Additional Central Assistance and Special Plan Assistance. The

schemes under these programmes are selected on a need based manner and are

to be completed within a period of one year. Works have also been taken up

under Rashtriya Swas Vikash Yojana (RSVY) programme in Upper Subansiri

District. A few road and bridge projects were also taken up in Upper Subansiri

District under funding from the Ministry of Tribal Welfare, GOI.

19

V. 11th PLAN PROGRAMMES – UNDER STATE SECTOR

ROAD & BRIDGE SECTOR

5.1 Focus areas

During 11th Plan the thrust will have to be on increasing the coverage of road

network in the state, especially to those unconnected administrative centres

and villages by raising the road density from the present level of 18.65 Km per

100 sq. Km. As per the goal of Road Development Vision 2020, it is proposed to

step up the road density from the present level to 25 Km per 100 Sq. Km by

2020, the horizon year of the perspective plan. This would mean that by end of

the perspective plan the State should possess a road length of 20936 Km. Thus,

some 5317 Km of new roads (20936 - 15619) will have to be added by middle of

the13th Plan. Then again, assuming equal distribution of new roads to be

added over the three Five Year Plan periods viz. 11th, 12th, and 13th Plan, some

2127 Km of new roads will have to be constructed during 11th Plan. Further,

taking the current share of PWD roads in the total road network in the state as

the basis, (about 42.85%), the new constructions to be taken up under the State

agency will work out to about 911 Km. Thus by the end of 11th Plan period the

road density in the state is expected to go up to 21.19 Km/100 sq.km.

5.2 Projected size of 11th Plan

Against new projects. For 911 Km of new road the investment required will

work out to around Rs.911 crore (taking a conservative rate of Rs.100 lakhs per

Km). Then again about 30% of this is expected to be made available from

external funding sources. Hence the actual budgetary provision required for

construction of new roads and bridges under PWD through State Plan, during

11th Plan period, will work out to about Rs.638 crores.

For completion of spillover schemes. Then again considering the fact that a

large number of 10th Plan schemes are expected to spill over to 11th Plan, an

adequate resource support has to be made for completing the spillover schemes

of 10th Plan. The details of fund requirement for completing these schemes are

as follows:

20

a) For completion of last-mile schemes : Rs.19.03 crores

(physical progress above 60%)

b) For completion of balance spillover schemes: Rs.109.85 crores

c) For completion of spillover schemes where

Revised sanction is required: Rs.93.44 crores

Total: Rs. 222.32 crores

Say Rs.222.00 crores.

Details can be seen from Annexure 3.1. Improvement of existing deficient roads. On the other hand about 25% of the

existing fair weather roads under the Department (about 3445 Km) will require

improvement/upgradation to provide minimum connectivity with at least one

layer of GSB or WBM, adequate number of CD structures and minimum

required bridges. The total cost involved would work out to Rs.215 crore (taking

@ 25.00 lakhs/Km). The total outlay required for 11th Plan will workout to

Rs.215.00 crores.

5.3 Normal grant

The average allocation under unearmarked normal grants during 10th Plan

stood at 36%. It may be pointed out that maintenance obligation, the spillover

schemes from the previous plan periods are to be met up from normal grants.

Hence there is a need to enhance the allocations under normal grants. Out of

the estimated total outlay of Rs.1075.00 crores during 11th Plan it is propose

that Rs.797.00 crore (74%) will be as normal grant.

5.4 CRF programme

Spillover projects. Incomplete schemes from 10th Plan, including 13 schemes

under State category, one Inter State Connectivity (ISC) category and two of

Economic Importance (EI) category, will spill over to 11th Plan. The details of

schemes can be seen from Annexure 3.2. The fund requirement for completing

the projects will work out to about Rs. 29.05 crores.

Resource base. As per the present trend with annual accrual standing at about

Rs.16.22 crore (during 2005-06) the total availability of fund under CRF during

21

the 11th Plan period with an annual mark up of about 10%, is expected to be

around Rs.123.00 crore. The balance of Rs.93.95 crore after meeting up the

obligation towards completing the ongoing projects could be deployed for

funding new projects.

New projects. Some 36 new schemes have been identified for funding under

CRF. The list is enclosed as Annexure 5.1. It is expected that for future

programme under CRF, schemes will be selected from this list.

5.5 RIDF Programme Spillover projects. Out of the 22 ongoing schemes under RIDF, some 8 projects

are expected spill over to 11th Plan. The financial implication would work out to

a tune of about Rs.37.69 crores. Details can be seen from Annexure 3.3.

Resource base. The allocation in State Plan under RIDF has remained static at

about Rs.28.00 crore each year. Taking a modest increment of 5% per year, the

outlay under RIDF for 11th Plan could be assumed as Rs.155.00 crore. Thus the

fund available for new projects, after meeting up the obligations for spill over

projects from 10th Plan will work out to about Rs.117.31 crores.

New projects. A list containing new projects has been prepared for funding

under RIDF. The projects selected for implementation during 11th Plan would be

selected from this tentative list. The details are given in Annexure 5.2.

5.5 Total outlay and breakup

As seen from above the size of 11th Plan against R&B sector under State sector

will work out to about Rs.1075.00 crores. Considering the present trend of

funding for different programmes under State Plan the break of the outlay could

be as follows :

(i) Free grant: Rs. 797.00 crore ( 74 %)

(ii) CRF : Rs.123.00 crore ( 11%)

(iii) RIDF loan etc: Rs. 155.00 crore (15 %)

22

5.7 Phasing of outlay

The total outlay of Rs.1075.00 crore for 11th Plan is proposed to be phased over

five Annual Plans as follows:-

(Rs. crores)

Annual Plan

23

VI. 11TH PLAN - EXTERNALLY FUNDED PROGRAMME

6.1 Besides the normal programme under State Plan, an increasing number of

projects under Transport and Communication sector are being funded through

Central programmes like NH, NEC, NLCPR, SARDP-NE etc. During 11th Plan

funding through the Central programmes will come to play a vital role in the

development of infrastructure under T&C sector.

6.2 Road & Bridge projects under NEC

The North Eastern Council will continue to play an important role in building

roads and bridges in Arunachal Pradesh during 11th Plan. The main focus of the

programme will be completion of spill over schemes. Besides these, a few

priority green field projects will also be initiated during the Plan period.

Ongoing schemes. All the ongoing projects from 9th Plan are proposed to be

completed before the onset of 11th Plan. On the other hand all the four projects

initiated during 10th Plan projects are likely spill over to 11th Plan. Of these, two

projects viz. Interstate road from Laimekuri in Assam to Nari-Telam-Rema camp

(65 Km - 61 Km in AP) and Upgradation of Pasighat-Ledum-Tene-Koyu road (60

Km) are in progress. The remaining two roads viz. Upgradation of Pengri-

Namchik-Mahadevpur road (40 Km) and Seppa-Chayangtajo road (81 Km) are

yet to receive EFC. The financial involvement for completion of these four

projects from 10th Plan will be around Rs.191.17 crores.

New projects identified. Apart from the above works, some 18 new road

projects have been identified for inclusion under 11th Plan of NEC. The list is

enclosed as Annexure 6.1. The total projected cost of these 18 new roads would

work out to Rs.1042.40 crores. The final selection of the new R&B projects to be

taken up during 11th Plan of the Council could be done on the basis of this list.

A need for change in approach for selection of projects. As a selection

criteria, the NEC gives priority on inter state road projects over roads of

economic importance. As a general policy objective the approach of NEC could

be considered as admirable. However, when seen against practical needs on

ground, the flaw in the Council’s policy becomes apparent. Under the present

24

dispensation the number of projects that can be sanctioned against a given

state will depend on how many and how long are the interstate boundaries

shared by the state with its neighbours. More the number of neighbouring

states and larger the length of boundaries shared, more would be the projects

and plan allocations likely to accrue to the state. Besides above population of a

state is also taken as one of the criteria for deciding the size of investment

package. Under this scenario, Assam being in the hub of the NE region and with

highest population stands to cover the maximum number of projects. And that

is what has been happening in the past and likely to continue unless there is a

paradigm shift in the funding pattern of the NEC.

For a vast state like Arunachal Pradesh having an area of 84743 sq.km. and

distance between the eastern and western tips being over 600 km and expanse

of territory from foothills to the international border being more than 150 km,

preponderance with interstate nature of projects will restrict the location of

schemes only to the areas in the vicinity of the interstate border with Assam

with which it shares boundary of over 700 km. Thus, under this situation other

parts of the state specially those towards the border areas will never be able to

benefit from development initiatives under NEC. Hence, there is a need to have

a fresh look on the interstate concept and base the selection of projects on more

realistic parameters like economic importance, as is being done for new member

state of Sikkim.

Resource base and phasing

Taking the outlay of Rs.269.03 crores under Transport and Communication

sector during 10th Plan as the base and adopting a modest mark up of 15% the

resource base for Arunachal Pradesh under 11th Plan of NEC could be taken as

Rs.310.00 crores. This may be phased over five Annual Plans as follows:

2007-08 2008-09 2009-10 2010-11 2011-12

Total

46.00 53.00 61.00 70.00 80.00 310.00

25

6.3 Development of Airports under NEC

The funding for development of airports in Arunachal Pradesh during 11th Plan

is expected to be done jointly under the NEC and the AAI as done in the case of

other projects in NE region during 10th Plan and earlier.

Ongoing projects. The two airports at Pasighat and Tezu for 50 seater aircrafts,

taken up during 9th Plan were subsequently abandoned with further funding

stopped for want of EFC clearance. These two airports will have to be revived

and completed during 11th Plan. The updated expected completion cost of the

two airports will be about Rs.19.40 crores for Tezu airport and Rs.27.40 crores

for Pasighat airport.

New projects. The thrust for development in Civil Aviation sector in the State,

however, will be focused on establishment of a new airport near Itanagar,

roughly expected to cost around Rs.200 crores. Supports will also be necessary

for S&I and consultancy services.

There will also be need to explore the possibility and viability for development of

new airports at other potential sites like at Yiklet near Yingkiong in Upper

Siang district and Roing in Lower Dibang Valley.

Improvement of existing landing grounds. The existing landing grounds at

Ziro, Daporijo, Along, Mechuka, Tuting, Alinye and Vijaynagar, which had

earlier been air linked with services of Vayudoot through 20 seater. Dornier

aircrafts, also need to be improved with better infrastructure support for

operation of hopping services with small capacity fixed winged planes that will

supplement the service of the present air network in the NE region with 50

seater ATR crafts.

6.4 Bus/Truck Terminus & Transit facilities under NEC

With Arunachal Pradesh being solely dependent on road network for

communication, provision of terminal and way side facilities are important

needs of the road users. Presently there is near complete lack of such facilities.

26

Interstate Bus/Truck Terminus. The 10th Plan of NEC had a provision of

Rs.3.03 crores was made for construction of interstate bus terminus (ISBT) at

Itanagar. However, it could not be utilized mainly for want of suitable land. But

the bus/truck terminals are essential needs that the State capital town can

hardly do without…. The proposal will have to be revived during 11th Plan. The

cost of proposed ISBT to be located at Itanagar or Naharlagun will work out to

about Rs.10.00 crores.

Wayside amenities. We need wayside amenities with hygienic eating places and

clean comfort facilities at the 17 entry gates located at isolated places viz.

Balemu, Foothills, Bhalukpong, Seijosa, Balijan, Hollongi, Gumto, Kimin,

Likabali, Ruksin, Santipur, Sunpura, Dirok gate, namchik gate, Namdang gate,

Hukanjuri and Ranglua. The cost of providing these transit facilities will work

out to about Rs.8.50 crores.

6.5 National Highway

One of the major goals of 20 Years’ Road Plan of India (Lucknow Plan 1980-

2000), was to bring every part of the country within the distance of 50 Km from

a National Highway. Under this scenario, the NH network in Arunachal Pradesh

would work out to a minimum length of 1675 Km. Against this backdrop the

three NHs in the State, viz. NH-52, NH-52A and NH-153 have a combined length

of 419.33 Km only. Then again the existing NH network covers only a small

fringe area of the State close to the border with Assam.

A ban on declaration of new NH during 10th Plan prevented any signified effort

towards proposing new NH in the state. Hence, during the 11th Plan period

efforts will have to be intensified to increase the coverage of NH network in the

State. The target length of NH in the state at the end of 11th Plan could be

pegged at 850 Km, twice the present length. The thrust will be on inter district

connectivity and better linkage from NH-52, running along the north bank of

Brahmaputra in Assam.

East-West Highway. Construction of East-West Highway, a National Highway

within the territory of Arunachal Pradesh providing inter-district connectivity is

a long cherished dream of the people in the State. The importance of this road

27

has also been reflected in Shukla Commission Report (1996-1997). A concept

note on this proposal was submitted to the Government of India. The proposal

envisages a National Highway running in east-west direction along the middle

belt of the State covering areas with higher concentration of population and

more productivity in terms of agriculture and horticulture.

The project consists of two sectors viz. (i) Western sector and (ii) Eastern sector.

The Western sector will cover the road stretch starting from Balipara on NH-52

in Assam and terminating on NH-52 at Pasighat in East Siang district covering

important places like Bhalukpong, Nichipu, Seppa, Sagalee, Doimukh, Nirjuli

(Itanagar), Yazali, Ziro, Daporijo, Along and Pangin over a distance of about 939

Km. The Eastern sector, on the other hand, will cover a length of 320 Km from

Mahadevpur on NH-52 to Bimlapur in Assam via Bordumsa, Namchik,

Jairampur, Changlang, Khonsa, Longding and Ranglua. Details of different

segments under the two sectors of the East-West Highways envisaged are shown

in Annexure 6.2 enclosed.

The new NH will be developed by upgrading the existing road network of ODR

and MDR categories to NH standards, and constructing bridges over missing

water gaps where required. The total cost of the project at today’s price level is

estimated to be around Rs 1510.80 crores.

The upgradation work is proposed to be taken up in phases and stages starting

from Itanagar towards Seppa via Sagalee, Rilo, Pijirang etc. and Itanagar to Ziro

via Hoj and Yazali. It is proposed that both the segments will be submitted

before the Ministry of Shipping, Road Transport and Highways for declaration

as NH during 11th Plan.

6.6 Road & Bridge projects under NLCPR

Sanctioned projects. As many 13 road and bridge projects were sanctioned by

the Ministry of DONER under Non-lapsable Central Pool of Resources (NLCPR)

during 2005-2006 and fund to the extant of Rs. 5.077 crores (about 30% of the

total cost) was released as first instalments. The expenditure till the end of

2006-2007 is expected to be limited to releases under first instalment. The

28

balance works costing about Rs.12.91 crores will spill over to 11th Plan. The list

of sanctioned schemes can be seen from Annexure 4.4.

New works proposed. A list of 31 new schemes with total projected cost of

Rs.895.27 crore has been forwarded by the State Government to Ministry of

DONER, Government of India. A copy is enclosed as Annexure 6.3. This list will

form the basis for further selection of projects under NLCPR during 11th Plan.

6.7 Projects under SARDP-NE

The projects in Arunachal Pradesh under the Special Accelerated Road

Development Programme in NE region (SARDP-NE) formulated in 2004-2005 is

yet to take off. With preparation of DPRs yet to gather momentum, all the

projects under the programme are expected to spill over to 11th Plan. Detailed

list of the projects under SARDP-NE can be seen from Annexure 4.5 & 4.6.

The total financial implication involved for implementing SARDP-NE, Phases A

& B, will work out to about Rs.1802.00 crores.

Pending decision on implementing agencies. The question on the

implementing agency or the agencies to be entrusted with the works under

SARDP-NE is yet to be fully resolved.

The Government of Arunachal Pradesh was of the view that execution of the

projects should be entrusted to both the BRO and State PWD on a principle of

as-is-where-is basis, with the respective owner agency carrying out the work

pertaining to the road (or the portion of a road) under the agency concerned. In

the case of green field projects which are yet to be started the work could be

entrusted to BRO.

On the other hand, the GOI, seems to have intended that the entire programme

would be placed solely under the BRO.

BRO’s capacity overstretched. It may be noted that BRO is already heavily

engaged with construction roads under the General Staff and China Study

Group programmes of the Ministry of Defence (MOD). It is also involved with

upgradation works of a number of National Highways like NH-52, NH-52A etc.

under the MOSRT&H. Thus the ability of BRO to take up additional workloads

29

under SARDP-NE is debatable. Moreover, since it is the avowed objective of the

Central Government to decentralize development activities in the country,

participation of the state agencies in implementation of SARDP-NE, an

important programme of GOI for infrastructure development in NE region, could

be a major step towards mainstreaming of a fringe state like Arunachal Pradesh.

The issues involved need to be resolved if need be with the intervention of the

PMO.

6.8 Border Trade Routes

In the past, limited cross border trading activities were carried out generally

under barter system through various traditional land routes between Arunachal

Pradesh and the neighbouring countries like Bhutan, Tibet and Burma.

However, trade through these routes could not be sustained mainly due to non-

existence of required support facilities, poor condition of roads, and, to an

extent, due to souring of relationship among the neighbouring countries. Now in

the backdrop of changing global economic scenario, there is an emerging need

to re-open these trade routes. There are seven such identified trade routes

between India and the three neighbouring countries which could be reopened

with enabling conditions as good roads and necessary cross border facilities.

The list is enclosed as Annexure 6.4. An investment to the tune of about

Rs.173.00 crore would be required for developing necessary communication

facilities to these potential cross border trade centres.

6.9 Roads to Tourist Destinations

Approved Travel Circuits. There are eight approved tourist circuits in

Aruanchal Pradesh. The main routes and their extensions and spurs serving

these circuits require various improvement and upgradation measures. Some of

these improvement needs are covered under different programmes like NH, CRF,

SARDP-NE etc. The approximate cost for undertaking construction,

improvement or upgradation of roads pertaining to these approved tourist

circuits will work out to around Rs.1477.30 crores. The details of these routes

are given in Annexure 6.5.

30

Identified new Travel Circuits. As many as six prospective new Tourist

Circuits have been identified. They cover areas which are not covered by the

existing approved circuits. These new circuits are expected to supplement and

enhance the tourist flow into the state by enlarging the available options. The

detailed list of the proposed new Tourist Circuit are given in Annexure 6.6.

6.10 Urban roads

The urban population has grown at a accelerated rate of 158% during 1981-91

(against a national average of 36.09%) and 101.29% during 1991-2001. This

high growth rate could reflect a phenomenon of in-migration of people from the

rural areas to the urban pockets in search of better facilities of health,

education, commercial and socio-economic activities. It could also indicate an

influx from outside the State, particularly in Itanagar and Naharlagun, which

have recorded high decadal growth rates of 111.36 % and 87.31% during 1981-

1991 and 1991-2001, respectively. Such influxes into the urban locations has

necessitated the improvement and upgradation of the existing road

infrastructure of the Urban Centres.

Declared Urban Centres. The Government of Arunachal Pradesh has notified

22 towns as Urban Centres viz. Tawang, Bomdila, Dirang, Seppa, Sagalee,

Itanagar Capital Complex including Naharlagun, Nirjuli, Doimukh and

Banderdewa, Ziro, Daporijo, Basar, Along, Pasighat, Yingkiong, Roing, Tezu,

Namsai, Hawai, Khonsa, Deomali, Jairampur, Changlang, Miao and Longding.

The total length of roads in these Urban Centres works out to 559.07 Km. The

cost for improving the existing roads along with development of side drains,

footpath etc. works out to Rs. 335.44 crores Lakhs taking @ Rs.60 Lakhs per

Km. The details are given in Annexure 6.7.

Potential Growth Centres. Then again, 30 other potential Growth Centres have

been identified in the State. The investment required for improving the existing

road network in these Potential Growth Centres aggregating to a total length of

168.38 Km will work out to about Rs.101.03 crores. The details are given in

Annexure 6.8.

31

Need for designated fund. So far the efforts toward creation of urban road

infrastructure have been taken up from State Plan through funding under

normal grants or CRF. With increasing demand for urban infrastructure

development and maintenance of roads in urban centres may be undertaken

against designated funds.

6.11 Roads to uncovered areas

The road development in Arunachal Pradesh has been generally centered

around the needs of the higher populated areas in the periphery of the capital

towns, the district headquarters and other administrative centres. On the other

hand, the priority of roads in border areas constructed by BRO is dictated by

strategic needs of the defense forces. Thus many areas of the state in the

remote border regions remain excluded from the road development initiative.

Fund constraints under the State Plan is the main cause for this. Exclusion

from the programme of the external funding agencies like the NEC, giving

priority to projects of inter-state connectivity only, has also contributed to the

problem.

An attempt has been made to identify major road projects needed specially in the

far flung border areas uncovered by existing programme. The list is enclosed as

Annexure 6.9. Total length of the identified roads works out to 2803 km and the

investment needed will be about Rs. 2819.70 crores.

The priority roads selected out of the list can also be considered under major

programmes such as RIDF, NLCPR, CRF, NEC etc taken up in the future.

32

VII. CAPACITY BUILDING AND OTHER IMPORTANT ISSUES

7.1 Capacity building

The PWD, Arunachal Pradesh, the main construction agency under the State

Government, lacks organizational strength in many critical areas. The

department was first borne as the NEFA (North East Frontier Agency), PWD in the

fifties. Subsequently the infant organization with limited technical manpower

merged with the CPWD. The organization was reborn in the eighties and started

functioning as wing of CPWD. Later with Arunachal Pradesh attaining Statehood

in 1987 the PWD came off age and started functioning independently. Since then

the organization has not undergone any major expansion or capacity building

measure over these 19 years of its existence although it has been successfully

discharging the role of the main state construction agency. Therefore, there are

many areas related to its operations where capacity building is necessary. Some

of the immediate and unavoidable needs of the department are outlined below.

a. Chief Engineer (Design & Quality Control). Not having a designated

design unit, the department is totally dependent on outsourced

consultancy services for any design solution. To remove this weakness of

the department it is urgently necessary to set up an independent design

unit under it. The unit will be manned by qualified personnel trained in

Structural Engineering, and equipped with necessary computation

facilities.

There is also a need to set up an independent Quality Control unit

equipped with well established laboratory facilities and managed by

trained manpower. The unit will help the department to ensure quality

inputs in planning and execution of projects. This unit will supplement

the function of the design unit.

It is, therefore, suggested that the Government may like to consider

setting up an independent Design & Quality Control under establishment

of Chief Engineer (Design & Quality Control).

b. Chief Engineer (Investigation and Planning). The department also

needs to build up capacity in planning works supported by persons

33

specialized in Traffic & Transportation Engineering, Earthquake

Engineering, Safety Engineering etc.

Then again, for major projects like highways, major bridges and airports,

there would be needs for proper investigation by personnel specialized in

the field and using state of the art equipment. Presently the PWD is

completely dependent on outside agencies for any investigation works.

This causes delay in formulation and hence implementation of projects.

To overcome this dependency syndrome, an independent Investigation

wing is necessary.

An independent Investigation and Planning unit could thus be established

and placed under Chief Engineer (Investigation and Planning).

c. Chief Engineer (Central Zone). Then again, in order to improve the

general efficiency of project implementation by the PWD we need to

strengthen the implementation wing of the department. Thus a third

working zone, namely Central Zone could be created to carry out

infrastructure development activities in the central districts covering

Papum Pare, Lower Subansiri, Kurung Kumey and Upper Subansiri. The

Circles and Divisions under the Zones could be oriented accordingly. The

headquarters of the Central Zone could be located at Nirjuli or Itanagar,

Yupia.

d. Engineer in Chief. Over the years, there has been a general need for

coordination in the planning and works management under PWD.

Presently the planning process under Communication sector is done by

the Chief Engineer (Eastern Zone) while the Building sector is handled by

Chief Engineer (WZ). This is a stop gap arrangement which often fails to

work satisfactorily. Similarly in the matter of budgeting, appropriation

and re-appropriation of account and while interacting with the

functionaries and agencies of the government of India, and other agencies,

the need for a singular coordinating authority is felt.

Though the office of Commissioner (PWD) is expected to provide general

administrative support and coordination, it has its own limitation

34

especially in works organization and management. Hence for better

coordination of works organization; control of work management

including formulation and implementation of projects, quality control of

works, monitoring and evaluation of schemes; proper budget regulation

including appropriation and re-appropriation of accounts etc., it is

suggested that a coordinating and controlling head in the form of

Engineer-in- Chief, or Principal Chief Engineer, as existing in the PWDs of

the majority of the States in the country including those in the North

Eastern Region like Mizoram, Nagaland, Manipur, may be established. For

matters relating to day to day functioning of the department the Chief

Engineers will function under the Engineer-in-Chief.

7.2 Adoption of intermediate specification

Many of the villages in Arunachal Pradesh are not only remote but also have

small populations. As per census 2001 over 76% of villages in the state have

population less than 250, the threshold population for covering a village under

PMGSY programme in desert or hilly states or areas. Thus the present or

anticipated traffic volume to these remote and thinly populated villages may not

justify costly bituminized road. It may just be enough to provide all weather road

with the required bridges, minimum number of culverts and rudimentary

pavement consisting of granular sub-base layer only or one layer of WBM over

GSB, properly laid and compacted with roller. Such graveled roads could be

upgraded to bituminized surface in future when the traffic volume or the

population crosses a pre-decided triggering point. Adoption of graveled surface for

low traffic intensity road without using bituminized surface would not only result

in cost saving but also be more environment friendly.

7.3 Mechanization of construction

Manual construction of roads in hills is not only slow but also costlier. A general

lack of quality in works execution is also seen. On the other hand earthwork in

road construction is faster, cheaper and better when executed by deploying

equipment like bulldozer and mechanized shovel or loader. In view of this there is

a need for a shift towards mechanized mode of road construction especially in

35

activities like formation cutting, embankment filling, laying of carpeting etc.

Mechanization in road construction may be facilitated through a policy initiative

with other measures in tandem that may include registration of contractors etc.

7.4 Maintenance needs

Mismatch between needs and availability of maintenance fund. As per norms

of maintenance fixed by the earlier Ministry of Surface Transport (MOST), GOI,

now Ministry of Shipping, Road Transport and Highways (MOSRT&H), the funds

required for maintenance of roads in hills works out to Rs.1.10 lacs/Km for

earthen/surfaced road, Rs. 3.50 lacs/Km for WBM and Rs.3.00 lacs/Km for

bituminized surface roads. Thus, the total requirement of funds for maintenance

of roads would work out to Rs.30.76 crores per year (considering 20% road length

to be maintained annually}. Against this demand the maintenance resource

available through apportionment of plan funds, under 5054 and 3054 Roads &

Bridge sector, comes out to be barely Rs.15.00 crores per annum. On the other

hand since the onset of 9th Plan PWD has not been receiving any non-plan fund

for maintenance of road assets.

Utilization of funds under TFC award. In the light of above background funds

for maintenance of roads accruing under the award of the Twelfth Finance

Commission (TFC) was expected to provide great relief. With resource for material

procurement coming through EFC grant and the labour component being

supported through annual plan outlay it was hoped that the badly needed

maintenance of road assets having remained neglected over the years could be

taken care effectively. However, the TFC funds are being earmarked against

specific roads in the line of plan allocation under State Plan. As a result of this

roads in other areas of the State without earmarked allocation will starve of

maintenance funds leading to obvious results. There is thus a need for more just

and equitable method of allocating TFC grants for effective maintenance of roads.

Need for designated maintenance fund. There is also a need for designated

maintenance funds to take special care of the maintenance of certain categories

of roads like urban roads or roads linking administrative centres. Allocation of

maintenance funds under Non-Plan should be revived.

36

7.5 Need for rationalisation of project selection method of NEC

The NEC’s preponderance on interstate nature of project as the rulling criteria for

inclusion under its programme is lopsided and skewed. It severely restricts the

options and is biased towards projects located close to the interstate boundaries

with Assam, thus leaving all other candidate projects in the interiors of the state

with minimal scope for coverage under the programme of the Council. This

approach needs a paradigm shift during 11th Plan with equal emphasis given on

economically important projects.

7.6 Need for equity in project selection

In the past development of road has been concentrated around the district

headquarters and other administrative centres in the middle belt of the state with

higher concentration of populations and development activities. For various

reasons that include remoteness, difficult terrain and poor articulation of

demands by the resident people, the distant areas especially those towards the

international borders have continued to remain on the margin of road

development initiatives of the government. Paradoxically road development

towards the villages lying in the areas along the interstate border with Assam and

Nagaland have also remained neglected.

Again, it is generally observed that various road development activities under

designated funds like CRF and RIDF and external funding agencies like NEC,

NLCPR etc. tend to crowd around some selected areas while other regions remain

devoid of such programmes. There is a need for clear directives in the selection of

schemes in a manner with equity. It is felt that prioritization process should be

made mutually exclusive. If a project from a particular area is selected or

prioritized under a given programme, no other project under other programmes

should be taken up in that area till the first project is completed.

7.7 Transfer of works under Porter/Mule track under RWD As per Business Allocation Rules of Arunachal Pradesh the subject of

porter/mule tracks and foot bridges are placed under the RWD. However, inspite

of several attempts at transfer of the subject to the designated nodal department

the matter still remains unsettled, mainly for want of clear administrative

37

direction. This issue must be settled once for all during 11th Plan to improve

accountability of the designated agency.

7.8 Registration of contractors

Registration of contractors is yet to be practiced in Arunachal Pradesh. Except

execution of major works like bridges needing experience and expertise, which are

awarded to capable contractors through competitive biddings, all other works are

implemented departmentally or through petty contractors, unregistered and of

unknown antecedents.

In the past participation of local people in development works was tacitly

encouraged with a goal to provide them direct economic benefit. In the bygone

years, when the construction works taken up were simple and practice of

tendering was yet to be in vogue with the local contract industry still in infant

stage, participation of general people in construction activities as petty

contractors worked. But now that magnitude of works are becoming larger, the

technical inputs and managerial skills needed are getting more complex, we have

to opt more towards competitive biddings for award of works to experienced and

able contractors having required financial capacity technical expertise and with

required equipment and manpower.

Registration of contractors is a procedural requirement that will help to pre-

identify different classes of companies, firms, individuals for undertaking various

work values.

The State PWD therefore, must have to undertake registration of contractors. The

process which was initiated in 2005-2006 must cultivate in actual registration

process by beginning of 11th Plan.

7.9 Problem of excess labour

For various reasons including uncontrolled engagement of labourers over the

years without assessing the real requirement, the PWD is now saddled with a very

large labour force consisting of 3871 workcharged (WC) staff and 12826 casual

workers (as per 31.03.2005) with annual labour wage bill running to over

Rs.50.00 crores. This whopping labour wage bill is presently being met up mainly

38

through plan outlays against schemes both under Road & Bridge and Building

sectors. Many of the sanctioned road and bridge and building schemes which

have to bear the burden of labour wages ultimately get sick and become unviable.

It is thus imperative that a solution be found for reducing the unsustainable

labour force of the PWD.

7.10 Communitisation of road construction and maintenance activities

In the past many roads like Along-Likabali road, Along-Rumgong road, Road to

Eyi village etc. and the landing ground at Along in the then undivided Siang

district were constructed through community effort under initiative of the local

administration. Similarly in the undivided Tirap district too, roads like

Naharkatia-Khonsa, Khonsa-Changlang etc. were built through community effort

again with the local administration playing a pivotal road. The different stretches

of initial earth cutting works were earmarked against different villages for

execution through voluntary labour with minimal support provided by the

government in the form of implement, ration etc. Thus the initial efforts of the

local community helped to open up many of the important present day roads.

Though the other components of the roads like CD structure, bridge, pavement

etc. were subsequently completed by the Government agencies like CPWD, BRO,

PWD etc. the initial contribution of the local people was crucial. An effort could

now be made to revive the old tradition of community participation in building of

public assets.

Then again, the occurrence of critical requirement of manpower for road

maintenance in the hills of Arunachal Pradesh is sporadic or periodical. Thus,

instead of maintaining a large labour force on a continuous basis with heavy

wage bill obligations we could make an arrangement for periodical engagement of

workers from nearby villages for maintenance of identified stretches of roads

during specific periods of the year or at the times of emergency. A standing dry

roll of villagers willing to work on periodical engagement could be maintained.

This communitisation of road construction and maintenance could also be made

possible through Panchayati Raj institutions and by dovetailing with various

employment generation and poverty alleviation programme like Rural

Employment Guarantee Scheme of the GOI.
