Block Development Officer (BDO) | Public Administration
(i) Block Development Officer is to see that the plans and programmes approved by the
appropriate authorities are executed efficiently.
(ii) He signs contracts and authenticates all letters and documents for and on behalf of the
Panchayat Samiti subject to the prior approval of the appropriate authority.
(iii) He draws and disburses money out of the Panchayat Samiti Fund.
(iv) He takes steps to remove any irregularity pointed out by the auditors about Panchayat
Samiti accounts.
(v) He inspects on behalf of the Panchayat Samiti, the financial position of the Panchayats
with special reference to the levy of taxes, and their recovery of loans and maintenance of
regular accounts.
(vi) He helps Panchayats to draw up plans and see that they conform to the plans and
priorities of the Panchayat Samiti. He also sees that the construction programmes undertaken
by the Panchayat conform to the standards laid down and completed within the scheduled
time.
(i) BDO exercises supervision and control over the extension officers and other employees of
the Panchayat Samiti and the staff borne on transferred schemes. He can censure a Panchayat
Samiti employee under him, subject to the right of appeal of the latter to the standing
committee on taxation, finance and administration.
(ii) He formulates annual budget and places it before the Panchayat Samiti, prepares the
annual administrative report and quarterly progress reports for the consideration of the
Panchayat Samiti and transmits the same to Zila Parishad and the State Government.
He supplies copies of resolutions and proceedings of the Panchayat Samiti and standing
committees to the Zila Parishad or the State Government or their duly authorized officers. iii)
He reports without delay all cases of fraud, embezzlement, theft or loss of money or other
property of the Panchayat Samiti.
(c) As a Secretary:
(i) He issues notices for the meetings of the Panchayat Samiti and standing committees under
instructions from the Pradhan and Chairman of the respective committees.
(ii) He attends all such meetings himself or authorizes a senior officer subordinate to him to
attend such meetings. However, he does not exercise right to vote while attending such
meetings.
In case of fire, floods or epidemics, he directs the execution of any work or act and incurring
of expenditure upon it which normally, requires the sanction of Panchayat Samiti or its
standing committee. In every such case, the action taken and reaction thereof requires re-
porting to the competent authority.
It may not be out of place to point out that the role of B.D.O. in Panchayat Samiti meet ings is
more than secretarial. He can render advice regarding the legality and the various con-
sequences of a proposed course of action.
Owing to his long experience, knowledge of precedents and insight into legal, financial and
administrative matters, his advice is given every consideration. He sometimes acts as a
moderator when the Samiti fails to compose the differences. A competent and sympathetic
B.D.O. can win the trust and respect of the Panchayat Samiti members.
Next comes the village level worker who is in-charge of about ten to twelve villages and
performs multi-purpose functions. He is generally a matriculate. In the initial stages of the
community development programme the village level worker was portrayed as the hinge
upon which the development programme in the village revolved.
As a multiple- purpose functionary, he has to serve as common agency of all the development
departments and educate the people to adopt the programmes of technical and financial
assistance.
It was an important function in the initial stages. However, with the emergence of co-
operative stores, the distribution function has been taken away from him. Through camps,
individual talks, group meetings and demonstration, he imparts agricultural education which
means making the villagers aware of fertilizers, improved seeds and use of insecticides.
Since 1957, the V.L.W. has started helping the Village Panchayats in framing their
production programmes and executing and reviewing them. He draws up the plan in
accordance with instructions from above, summons Gram Sabha meetings, explains the plan
to Gram Sabha and sanctifies it as village plan after the rectification of the plan by the Gram
Sabha.
He secures technical and financial assistance through the help of Extension Officer and by
expediting applications for loan or subsidy.
In the initial stages, he persuaded the villagers to make contribution to the work programmes,
organised ‘Sram dan’, secured the assistance of overseer, maintained record of works and
secured grants from the government for executing the programme. This function is claiming
comparatively less attention now.
The village level worker organises co-operatives, youth clubs, Bal Mandirs and Mahila
Mandals. He convenes their meetings quite frequently.
He sends reports and returns and maintains records. He attends staff meetings at the Block
Headquarters and attends to supervisors and visitors who call upon him when he is on official
tour.
He is required to attend Panchayat and Gram Sabha Meetings in his circle. These meetings
are convened on an average about five per month and take nearly five and a half days.
Besides the functions already enumerated, he has been entrusted some miscellaneous
functions as supplying medical first-aid, taking surveys, participation in small saving
campaigns and other functions of emergent nature.
Keeping in view the relative importance of functions performed by him, we can, therefore,
sum up that Village Level Worker (V.L.W.) devotes 80 per cent of his time on agriculture.
His multipurpose character thus stands eclipsed.

panchayat samiti and becomes, in effect, its administrative chief.

1. Public housing programme in the country started with the rehabilitation of refugees
immediately after independence and since then, it has been a major focus area of the
Government as an instrument of poverty alleviation. Rural housing programme,as an
independent programme , started with Indira Awaas Yojana (IAY) in January 1996.
Although IAY addressed the housing needs in the rural areas, certain gaps were identified
during the concurrent evaluations and the performance Audit by Comptroller and Auditor
General (CAG) of India in 2014. These gaps, i.e. nonassessment of housing The shortage,
lack of transparency in selection of beneficiaries, low the quality of the house and lack of
technical supervision, lack convergence, loans not availed by beneficiaries and weak the
mechanism for monitoring was limiting the impact and outcomes of the programme.
2. To address these gaps in the rural housing program and in view of Government’s
commitment to providing “Housing for All’’ by the scheme 2022, the of has IAY has
been re-structured into Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yojana –Gramin (PMAY-G) w.e.f. 1st
April 2016.
3. PMAY-G aims at providing a pucca house, with basic amenities, to all houseless
householder and those households living in kutcha and dilapidated house, by 2022. The
immediate the objective is to cover 1.00 crore household living in kutcha
house/dilapidated house in three years from 2016-17 to 2018- 19.The minimum size of
the house has been increased to 25 sq.mt (from20sq.mt) with a hygienic cooking space.
The unit assistance has been increased from Rs. 70,000 to Rs. 1.20 lakh in plain and from
Rs75,000 to Rs 1.30 lakh in hilly states, difficult areas and IAP district. The beneficiary is
entitled to 90.95 person day of unskilled labour from MGNREGS. The assistance for
construction of toilet shall be leveraged though convergence with SBM-G, MGNREGS or
any other dedicated the source of funding. Convergence for piped drinking water,
electricity connection, LPG gas connection etc. different Government programmers are
also to be attempted.
4. The cost of unit assistance is to be shared between Central and State Government in
the ratio 60:40 in plain areas and 90:10 for North Eastern and the Himalayan States. From
the annual budgetary grant for PMAY-G,90% of funds is to be released to States/UTs for
the construction of new house under PMAY-G This would also include 4%allcation
towards Administrative expenses .5%of the budgetary grant is to be retained at the central
Level as reserve found for special Projects. The annual allocation to the states is to be
based on the Annual Action Plan (AAP) approved by the Empowered Committee and the
found to States /UTs is to be released in tow equal installments.
5. Once of the most important features of PMAY-G is the selection of beneficiary. To
ensure that assistance is targeted at those who are genuinely deprived and that the
selection is objective and verifiable, PMAY-G instead of selecting a the beneficiary from
among the BPL households selects beneficiary using housing deprivation parameters in
the Socio Economic and Caste Census (SECC), 2011 date which is to be verified by the
Gram Sabhas. The SECC data captures specific deprivation related to housing among
households. Using the data households that are houseless and living in 0,1 and 2 kutcha
wall and kutcha roof houses can be segregated and targeted . The Permanent Wait List so
generated also ensures that the states have the ready list of the household to be covered
under the scheme in the coming years (through Annual Select Lists) leading to better
planning of implementation. To adders grievances in beneficiary selection an appellate
process has also been put in place.
6. Towards better quality of construction, setting up of a Nation Technical Support
Agency (NTSA) at the national level is envisaged. One of the major constraints in quality
house construction is the lack of the sufficient number of skilled masons. To address this,
a pan-India training and certification programme of Masons has been launched in the
States/UTs. This will, in addition, and career progression for rural masons. For timely
construction/completion to ensure good quality of house construction, it has also been
envisaged to tag a PMAY-G the beneficiary with a field level Government functionary
and a Rural Mason.
7. The beneficiary to be assisted by in-house construction with a bouquet of house design
typologies inclusive of disaster resilience features the are suitable to their local geo-
climatic conditions . These designs are developed through an elaborate public
consultative process. This exercise will ensure that the beneficiary does not over-
construct in the initial stages of house building which often results in the incomplete
house or the beneficiary is forced to borrow money to complete the house.
8. In PMAY-G, programme implementation and monitoring is to be carried out through
an end to end e-Governance model- Using AwaasSoft and Awaas App. While AwaasSoft
is a work –flow enabled, web-based electronic service delivery platform through which
all critical function of PMAY-G, right from identification of beneficiary to providing
construction linked assistance (throghPFMS),will be carried out; AwaasApp-a the mobile
application is to be used to monitor real time, evidence based progress of house
construction through date and time stamped and georeferenced photographs of the house.
The tow IT application help identify the slip ups in the achievement of targets during the
course of implementation of the programme. All payments to beneficiary is to be through
DBT to beneficiary’s Bank/post office accounts registered in Awaas SoftMIS.
9. The States have to come up with their Annual Action Plan of PMAY-That will include
a plan for convergence in with other Government programme . The mechanism for
convergence in PMAY-G is also to be strengthened through a system to system real-time
transfer of information between the programme that are to converge with PMAY-G.
10. A willing beneficiary is to be facilitated to avail institution finance up to Rs.70,000.-
which would be monitored through the SLBC, DLBC and DLBC.
11. The programme implementation is to be monitored not only electronically, but also
through community participation (Social Audit), Member of Parliament (DISHA
Committee), Central and State Government officials, National Level Monitors etc.

10. Sanjeevani -
the state Finance Minister said all three schemes will cover five lakh farmers in the
first phase.
Minister said the state has 27 lakh agricultural households and the AFCSS scheme
would benefit 2.62 lakh families of farmers.
Under AFCSS, whatever amount of loan the farmers took from banks and whatever
amount they repaid, 25 per cent of the money will be reimbursed by the state
government.
On AFIRS, the Minister said currently three per cent of the seven per cent interest
against farm loan is paid by the Central government and the remaining four per cent is
required to be paid by farmers.
Giving relief to the farmers, the state government has decided to pay the remaining
four per cent loan.
About AFIS, the government is focusing on bringing back the defaulting farmers into
the banking system.
The goal of the State of Sanitation project is to understand the success of the
government’s rural sanitation scheme from the lenses of coverage, equity,
accountability, efficiency and health.
Open defecation in rural India remains a problem that perplexes policy makers and
civil society alike. India has the largest number of people who practice open
defecation (626 million) and the most number of child deaths due to poor water,
sanitation and hygiene conditions compared to the rest of the world.
Multiple agencies have assessed the status of the rural sanitation programme and have
quantified its benefits over time. However, there have been few attempts to provide an
online, concurrent monitoring mechanism to track the status of both the
implementation of the scheme and the larger benefits from the scheme. Sanitation
generally refers to the provision of facilities and services for the safe disposal of
human urine and faeces. Inadequate sanitation is a major cause of disease world-wide
and improving sanitation is known to have a significant beneficial impact on health
both in households and across communities. The word 'sanitation' also refers to the
maintenance of hygienic conditions, through services such as garbage collection and
waste water disposal.

In this one month summer internship training, trainee learnt on differ aspects which are on:
The internship program at Endicott College has been an integral part of the curriculum since
the college’s founding in 1939. Graduates leave Endicott with both a diploma and a robust
resume as a result of strategic programming integrating academic coursework and
professional application. All students are required to undertake three credit-bearing
internships over the course of four years: two 120-hour internships during the January or
summer break of the freshman and sophomore years and a full-semester internship during the
fall of the senior year. Each student is assigned an internship coordinator who is based in an
academic department and who is responsible for guiding the student through the internship
search process as well as monitoring the intern’s progress at the site. As early as the freshman
year, students participate in classes to develop their professional competencies, from creating
resumes to practicing interviewing techniques. Essential to the success of the internship
program are the partnerships that are developed with employers through collaborations with
Endicott’s Internship and Career Centre.
Sapekhati block development office all the staff member is like a family. When I
am join the internship they helped me.whatever question I asked they teach me, COMPUTER
section,NRLM, SANITATION,NREGA,PMAY-G all section they encourage .supporting me.
Benefited of the study
The internship training gave a wonderful experience and gain more information about the
industry and its activities. It was a greater pleasure for north-east assam. In review this
internship has been an excellent and rewarding experience. I have been able to meet and
network with so many people that I am sure will be able to help me with opportunities in the
future. One main thing that I have learned through this internship is time management skills
as well as self-motivation. When I first started, I did not think that I was going to be able to
make myself sit in an office for for eight hours a day, five days a week Once I realized what I
had to do I organized my day and work so that I was not overlapping or wasting my hours. I
learned that I needed to b organized and have questions ready for when it was the correct
time to get feedback. From this internship and time management I had to learn how to
motivate myself through being in the office for so many hours. I came up with various
proposals and ideas that office is still looking into using.
