Integrated Approach

As indicated above, the independent Missions of the different sectors will organically merge and integrate with the Programme. The following types of integration are envisaged:

  1. Inter-departmental Integration plan: integration in this category would be to take up downstream activities after one department completes one activity. For instance, when the Soil & Water Conservation Department completes the construction of a Small Multipurpose Reservoir, the Fisheries Department will release the fingerlings in the Reservoir while at the same time training and activating the community towards fisheries sector. Likewise, the C&RD Department will look into the need for construction of a connecting road to the reservoir and the tourism department will develop the requisite tourism infrastructure. In order to achieve maximum impact, it is possible to design projects, which have elements from several sectors. A typical watershed management programme would have components like Water and Soil conservation, water harvesting, mini irrigation, bio mass regeneration, fisheries, livestock, agro processing and micro enterprise components, but properly sequenced.
  2. Convergence with Government of India’s flagship programmes: For example, The State Rural Employment Agency is responsible for the implementation of the MGNREGS in the state of Meghalaya. Several earthworks are being done under the MGNREGS. Fish pond construction can be undertaken under the MGNREGS in close coordination with the Fisheries Department, so that the ponds are technically suitable for Fisheries development. The input costs will be borne by the individuals or the Fisheries department, as the case may be; so as to reduce the burden on the MGNREGS with respect to the material component so is the case with B.R.G.F. another Government of India’s Programme
