- There will be eight working groups
- Each group will have 9-11 members
- It will cover the following areas: industry; skill development; infrastructure relating to rail, road & air; urban development; rural infrastructure and human resource management; agriculture and agro processing; financial services; health and social issues.
Task
- The government’s directive to these groups of top bureaucrats is that they must first identify two schemes that can be tailored for better delivery as quickly as in three months.
- The groups have also been told to identify two existing projects or schemes that can be transformed in the long term but with minimal budgetary support.
Working
- The working groups will further “assign responsibilities to concerned ministries” to implement specific steps.
- Not just that, they will assign “time limits for achievement” of milestones, devise methods of “periodic monitoring” and “final evaluation” followed by “ways of maintenance”.
- While the idea was to have the schemes and projects identified by April-end itself, senior officials said, the process will take longer because these groups have just begun to hold meetings.
