Source: Planning Commission and State Government.
Before the release of funds on account of Central Assistance, assessment of utilization
of funds released in the earlier installments is made by concerned Ministry/ Department in
accordance with scheme specific guidelines.
As Arunachal Pradesh is a special category state, Special Plan Assistance (SPA) for
projects is also provided to the state subject to several conditions. The State Government is
required inter alia to set up a monitoring mechanism to check the progress of Utilization at
regular intervals; ensure third party monitoring; conduct mandatory tendering and ensure
achievement of monitorable targets against each project before release of allocated funds to
the line departments. During the Annual Plan discussions with the Planning Commission,
the achievements under State Plans Schemes including utilisation of Central Assistance are
also reviewed.
