APPROVED ANNUAL PLAN 2006-2007 

CROP HUSBANDRY (AGRICULTURE) 

The Annual Plan 2006 - 2007 is prepared by keeping the policy of increased food 

production in view but within the limitation of fund constraints. 

Under Crop Husbandry priorities are land development, construction of rural market 

linkage, replacement of local seeds such as, paddy, pulses, oilseeds etc. with high yielding 

varieties. Farm Mechanization is given due importance for increased crop production. The 

other schemes are in line with the major schemes, supporting each other. 

Watershed Development Projects in Shifting Cultivation Area (WDPSCA) under a 

special Central assistance to State Plan Fund Programme for the benefit of the jhumias 

families being implemented in the 42 nos. of micro watershed projects during 10 th Plan 

period with a total target area of 20,000 Ha. During this financial year, it is targeted to treat 

5,500 Ha. 

The Government of Mizoram have launched a special Scheme known as Mizoram 

Intodelhna Programme (MIP) during 2002-2003. The programme will be continued during 

2006 - 2007 with an outlay of Rs. 2,000.00 lakh. 

The Oil Palm Development Programme under ISOPOM will be implemented in 

Mizoram as CSS on 75:25 sharing basis between Government of India & Government of 

Mizoram except for the component of drip irrigation where entire cost on drip irrigation in 

Oil palm Plantation would be met by the Government of India including training component. 

The scheme is expected to generate a self sustain economy with the help of Central 

Government. The scheme will be a development model for Mizoram State. 

Famine visits Mizoram at regular intervals during the flowering of Melocanna 

baccifera and Bambusa tulda. The occurrence of the past famines is due to the outbreak of 

rats, thereby causing a famine in the state. Thus, the Government of Mizoram has 

formulated a comprehensive programme of Bamboo Flowering and Famine Combat Scheme 

(BAFFACOS). This programme would be implemented through Rodent Control Programmes, 

adoption of alternative and diversified cropping system, establishment of processing unit at 

village level and rural market connectivity. 

The total approved outlay for the Annual Plan 2006-07 is Rs. 3,300.00 lakh for Crop 

Husbandry including the new programme of Mizoram Intodelhna Programme (of which 

Rs.1,000.00 lakh under State Plan fund, Rs. 500.00 lakh NABARD loan for cold storage and 

Rs. 500.00 lakh under Additional Central Assistance) and Rs 200.00 lakh under Bamboo 

Flowering and Famine Combat Scheme (BAFFACOS).

The main purpose of this project if upliftment of the rural poor especially the 

shifting cultivators. Its main concern is attainment of self-sufficiency, food security and 

better livelihood for the cultivators. 

This programme will minimise the undesirable consequences of Shifting Cultivation 

such as destruction of forests, removal of top soils, landslides and degradation of land. The 

farmers will be assigned to adopt a more profitable, sustainable, permanent system of 

farming through Agro-horticulture and Soil Conservation. 

Oil Palm Development in this Scheme will be implemented in Mizoram as CSS on 

75:25 sharing basis between Government of India and Government of Mizoram State except 

for the component of drip irrigation where entire cost on drip irrigation in Oil Palm 

Plantation would be made by the Government of India including training component. The 

scheme is expected to generate a self sustain economy with the help of Central Government. 

The scheme will be a development model for Mizoram State. 

The development of Aromatic plant - Patchouli, Biofuel - Jatropha, Passion fruits and 

Grape cultivation are proposed to be included in the on-going programmes of MIP during 

2006-2007. The farmers are introduced into contract farming where assured market is 

available for the produces from these selected crops. 

Land development by machineries is proposed to promote Agriculture Production 

through on-farm land development and terraces. The Agriculture production component 

has been designed to provide support necessary for farmers to make the best use of land 

available to them under various eco-system. 

Marketing of any farm produce at a reasonable prices is an important criteria. It is a 

very important to strengthen the marketing facilities/infrastructures. It is proposed to 

construct one unit multi-purpose Cold Storage at Vairengte having a capacity of 3500 MT for 

storing the perishable farm produces.

SOIL & WATER CONSERVATION 

Food, fibre and shelter are the basic needs of mankind. All these are obtained from 

the soil. Water is a life giver. Water remains in soil moisture, liquid and gas forms. Moisture 

or liquid water in soil keeps the plant food in soluble forms available to plant intake. To 

ensure healthy vegetation, it is imperative that soil should be rich in nutrients and water. 

Nature in its own scheme of eco-conservation maintains soil in healthy condition. 

Unfortunately, man and animal in their living and working environment disturb the soil 

cover, accelerating the erosion of soil and depletion of water. With enhanced erosion, soil 

fertility deteriorates and vegetation growth capacity reduces. Soil erosion also leads to 

depletion of water content and results in desertification of land. 

1.10: Soil erosion in rainfed areas is mainly caused by surface run off/flood. When the 

flow of water is free of any obstruction, it starts eroding the soil surface bed. Under 

excessive rainfall condition, as exist in Mizoram, enormous-volumes of water generates 

velocities and hydraulic dynamics causing heavy erosion. This results in formation of 

gulleys and ravines. The impact is tremendous and the volume of soil loss is very high. 

1.20: The terrain of Mizoram is hilly and the entire landscape varies from mild to very 

steep gradients.. The intensity of rainfall is also very high and mean annual rainfall is 

2500 mm. “Jhum” or shifting cultivation has been the traditional mode of livelihood for the 

tribal people in the State. Present statistics reveals that around 40,000 hacs is covered by 

this primitive system of land management. Burning of the soil along with the dried 

vegetation during jhum preparation leads to soil fragmentation and increases land 

vulnerability to easy erosion during the monsoons. 

1.30: The monsoon that the state receives is both intensive and extensive. Torrential 

rainwaters rush down descending gradients at high velocity in undefined directions. The 

resulting floods cause excessive bank erosion and removal of debris over long distances. 

The low lying areas which are cultivable lands, thus get avoidable silt cover, apart from 

causing damage to standing crops. Another inevitable impact of such erosion is decrease 

infiltration of water towards sub soil layers reducing soil moisture content. 

1.40: The excessive rainfall in habited locales and environments, along roadsides, where 

subsisting unregulated drainage systems are ineffective causes substantial dislodging of soil 

mass with frequent havoc causing landslides, landslips., area sinking etc. These are the 

visible signs of soil erosion that can cause immediate distruption to human and other forms 

of activity. However, the loss of fertile top soil is not visible. 

1.50: Jhum cultivation, by virtue of its shifting nature, is a low productivity technology. 

That is why a “Jhumia family” migrates from one location to another ever so often. Arising 

out of this age old practice, abandoned jhum lands serve poorly for agro-horti-forest crops 

cultivation. 

1.60: On the hilly terrain such as ours, human settlement are traditionally located on the 

upper hill ridges. Notwithstanding the abundant rainfall that the state receives annually, yet 

these settlements suffer inadequate water supply especially during the dry season. That 

apart, depleted moisture content in the soil layers, because of speedy runoff and cumulative 

soil erosion, dries up even otherwise flourishing vegetation. The spectre of fire and forest 

fires looms large all over the State.

- 37 - 


1.70: Off season agriculture typically tends to take place in remote and undulating areas, 

access to which is tough, time and labour consuming. This adversely affects the health of 

the agriculture labour rendering it vulnerable to disease and pestilence. Premature aging is 

often the result. Labour costs thus become prohibitive. It is essential to connect cultivable 

and potentially cultivable areas with main and arterial roads- which although expensive is 

inescapable for the speedy economic development in the state. 

1.80: The absolute need for soil and water conservation measures in the state is a prerequisite 

for effective socio-economic development. Public awareness, education, association and 

participation in soil and water conservation is a matter of public concern and priority. 

1.90: The Agro-climatic conditions prevalent in Mizoram are entirely conducive to 

successful agriculture practices through soil and water conservation measures and objectives. 

2.00: Keeping in view of the above stated strategy, the Soil & Water Conservation 

Department proposes the following schemes to implement during the year 2006-2007.

4) I.W.D.P. 

2.01: All the schemes from I - XIV are State Sector Schemes and these are continuing ones. 

These scheme characters are that these are implemented as a new schemes at new locations 

with fresh group of beneficiaries. 

2.:02: The Schemes at XV above under CSS programmes. 

1) River Valley Project/Flood Prone River (RVP/FPR) is a spill over programme from 9 th 

Plan. Total oulay proposed is Rs. 419.30 lakh plus Rs. 163.14 lakh i.e. Rs. 582.44 lakh during 

10 th Plan Rs.197.03 lakh is being spent. The proposed outlay for 10 th Five Year Plan is 

Rs.600.00 lakh and during 2005-06 proposal outlay is Rs. 2.46.00 lakh as Technical approval 

received from NRM Ministry of Agriculture N. Delhi. 

2) The Mat Catchment Treatment Project that was earlier posed for EAP take off will be 

proposed again during 10 th Five Plan. Total cost was Rs. 40.00 crores. This was prepared by 

engaging consultancy of CSWR & TI, Dehradun under the sponsoreship of Planning 

Commission. This scheme is submitted through the State Planning Department to Planning 

Commission.

- 38 - 


3) In the Catchment of Tuirial, Serlui ‘B’, Tuivai and Bairabi Hydel Projects, there is Soil 

& Water Conservation shares of activities. Tuirial HEP catchment area treatment plan outlay 

is Rs. 3.19 crores. But due to constraint of fund released from Forest Nodal Deptt. Rs.25.00 

lakh only in the 10 th Plan achieved and balance amount not yet finalised. Outlay during 

2006-07 is Rs.41.80 lakh. 

4) Integrated Wasteland Development Project (IWDP). There are 4 (four) IWDP scheme 

location at Champhai - Rs.329.40 lakh, Mamit - Rs.72.00 lakh, Lawngtlai - Rs.260.00 lakh, 

Lunglei - Rs. 480.00 lakh. These schemes are now implemented by Agriculture Department. 

3.00: The Annual Plan 2006-2007 approved outlay is 400.00 lakh under State Plan Sector. 

SCHEME DESCRIPTION: 

4.00: DIRECTION: 

For maintenance of vehicles, machineries, purchase of office contingencies including 

machineries & equipments etc. in the Directorate, Rs. 37.00 lakh is approved for Annual Plan 

2006-07. 

5.00: ADMINISTRATION: 

There are 8 functional and one Engineering Divisions in the Department for 

implementation of the Projects/Scheme. Further, there is one Training Institute for training 

of field staff upto Demonstrators level. These functional units are under staff at Officers 

level. Some extension unit of Ranges and Soil & Water Conservation Centres are also under 

staff. Besides, there is pressures from public to open some centres and Ranges at some 

potential areas as Saitual, North Hlimen, Mamit etc. which cannot be afforded to open at the 

existing staff strength. There is also instruction from Government to post ASCO(SDO) 

ranked officers in newly opened civil sub-divisions. For that, it is unavoidable to create some 

new posts. Rs. 117.00 lakh is approved during 2006-2007. 

5.01: The present post of Principal is required to be upgraded. This is essential for his 

higher responsibilities to entrust in the Institute. Also this is essential when it is seen for 

the future of the Department. So, viewing from these points, it is proposed to upgrade the 

Principal post to Joint Director post during 2006-07. 

5.02: Publicity & Advertisement, Monitoring and Evaluation, Planning Cell, Engineering 

Division, Plan Formation Cell are part of administration. Reasonable fund provision is made 

to run these wings efficiently and effectively. Provision for Rs. 24.52 lakh is approved for 

Annual Plan 2006-07. 

6.00: SOIL & LAND USE SURVEY: 

Project survey, investigation and project preparation. An area of 400 ha. in 2006-07 

Annual Plan will be undertaken. To conduct these works Rs. 2.00 lakh is approved during 


7.00: CONSERVATION PLANTATION: 

For stabilisation of sliding zone along the lifeline National Highway and State 

Highways, there is hardly any other alternative than tree planting and deep rooting grass 

planting. Further, vegetation roots and leaf litters allows, in situ, water retension over longer 

period and that reduces the chances of run-off causing landslides and reduces threat to life 

and property in human dwelling zone. To such a situation, soil conservation plantation is 

the only effective preventive remedy.

- 39 - 


8.00: CASH CROP SPICES DEVELOPMENT: 

The Department has demonstration plantation of Coffee, Rubber and Large 

Cardamom in various locations of the State. The purpose of this plantation is to support 

demonstration and training to the farmers and data formation. Particularly from Coffee 

plantation a good amount of return is received every year. Rubber plantation also pays 

return but due to lack of fund during the past few years maintenance part could not be 

attended properly. Similarly, the Black Pepper cultivation in Coffee plantation is required to 

be introduced and therefore, from 10 th Five Year Plan, it is proposed to intensify 

management of these plantations for profitable return in addition to other goal. The Coffee 

plantation requires replacement planting or rejuvination. For this purpose, provision is 

made for rejuvination and maintenance for Rs. 8.00 lakh in the Annual Plan 2006-07. 

9.00: PRODUCTION OF QUALITY PLANTING MATERIAL: 

From 2001-2002 Annual Plan of 9 th Five Plan, priority importance has been given on 

Expansion of Coffee and Large Cardamom in the marginal farmers sector. For a meaningful 

production of yield of this crop, it is essential that the planting material is to be of good 

quality from known seed origin. The reliable planting material production, it is experienced 

to be had from Departmental nursery and therefore, the Department has proposed 

establishment of these nurseries near the planting areas and their maintenance 2006-2007 

Annual Plan projection is Rs. 30.00 lakh. 

10.00: WATER RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT: 

To overcome the water difficulties in nursery growing, it is essential to construct 

water harvesting device near living spring close to the nurseries. Also in plantation water 

need is unignorable. Above all needs the water resource development near the plantations 

gets the priority for its water use by the plantations in clusters. Besides plantation it is 

necessary to improve the water condition in the rural areas. In villages, it is proposed to 

construct and improve water points. During 2006-07 Annual Plan, Rs. 10.00 lakh will be 

spent. 

11.00: RESEARCH, EDUCATION AND TRAINING: 

For conducting training and education of the grass-root level staff of the Department 

it is essential to continue this Training Institute at Durtlang. The training in Departmental 

technical activities which are up-dated due to technical updation. The training course is 

also being arranged for farmers in the plantation technology and other soil conservation 

activities in the 10 th Five Year Plan. 

The salary of teaching staff is committed to Non-Plan during 10 th Plan onward. But 

the training expenditure and maintenance expenditure on infrastructures including office 

expenses are proposed to be provided under Plan sector. Rs. 13.50 lakh is approved for 


12.00: RURAL ECONOMY INCENTIVE COMMERCIAL PLANTATION (R.A.D.): 

Under this scheme expansion of Coffee, Large Cardamom and Rubber has been given 

high priority since the year ending 9 th Five Year Plan. Under the existing agro-climatic and 

edaphic condition these crops are found growing jubilantly under the virgin forest of the 

State. Coffee per ha. yield is recorded 13 quintals from Bualpui experimental and 

demonstration Coffee plantation of Coffee Board during 2000. The crop yield is found to be 

higher than national average. The Cardamom also shows encouraging yield in the recent 

past that preludes for the plantation in jhumia sector. It is necessary to keep the farmer 

attentive to his plantation during his peak jhum working season. For expansion of this 

cultivation, Rs. 10.00 lakh has been provided in Annual Plan 2006-07.

- 40 - 


13.00: RUN-OFF RETARDING SCHEME: 

On a slope surface rain water moves faster with high erosive velocity downwards 

diving intensive rain. The surface run-off is a mobile flood and this causes intensive erosion 

damage. The damage is in terms of soil volume that includes Plan nutrients and soil. 

An open area cultivation is not productive and therefore, management of soil surface 

is required. This method of management of slope land is terracing, contouring and any 

other type of land use across the slope is a safety measure for protection of soil and 

moisture. 

Soil & Water Conservation Department recommends this terrace construction on 

moderate slope land for its use in agriculture, horticulture or forest plantation development. 

This conserve the its and soil fertility. The terracing programme provides a scope for 

developing agri, horticultural platform near the residential area of a farmer and agriculture 

practices nearer the residential areas experiences high scope of success as the farmer is 

able to pay close attention to his farming. Under the present nature of habitation, the 

agricultural potential areas had been placed at a considerable long distance from the 

habitation areas. To remove this gap it is compelling that the agricultural land which are 

stable and can be used year after year for vegetables and other crops should be developed 

nearer to the habitation areas. Even a small plot of 0.25 ha. in the kitchen garden of a 

farmer should be encouraged so that self-sufficiency for a particular family is assured. 

Thus, this scheme is envisaged. 

Terracing above 5-25% slope is proposed as it is the safe limit for conservation of 

soil and moisture. The terrace shall be constructed with all technique parameters so that the 

terrace does not get damage with the annual rain impact. These terraces will be constructed 

in the near habitation area only. Rs. 12.00 lakh is provided in the Annual Plan 2006-07. 

14.00: SOIL CONSERVATION ENGINEERING: 

The Soil Conservation Engineering Works provides facility for protection of land 

damage by run off flood during peak monsoon. The agricultural land in the plateau, river 

banks and foot hills are ravaged by such kind of damages. The farmers who holds land in 

this areas are very much in need of such kind of assistance to engineering works. The main 

works of long term permanent are rock fill, wire boxes, spurs and stream course 

straightening. Rs. 8.00 lakh is proposed under Annual Plan 2006-07. 

15.00: MICRO-WATERSHED MANAGEMENT: 

Micro-Watershed Management is given a priority importance by the Government of 

India under Central sector programmes. These programmes are supported on detail project 

report preparation. Therefore, for survey and preparation of detail project reports of such 

programmes in the State sector a token fund of Rs. 3.00 lakh is provided in Annual Plan, 

2006-07. Within this amount, it is also targetted to take up one sample micro-watershed 

project near Aizawl capital. 

16.00: OTHER EXPENDITURE: 

The expenditure on construction and maintenance of buildings and roads and 

machinery and equipments are placed under this head of expenditure. The Department has 

as many as 240 buildings which are quite old and needs maintenance badly. The Divisional 

and Range headquarters are connected with approach road. These approach roads required 

annual maintenance and improvement. Provision is made for taking care of these approach 

roads. Rs. 11.50 lakh is approved in the Annual Plan 2006 - 07.

17.00: INPUT SUPPLY: 

To meet the various needs for essential tools and implements, fertilizers and 

chemicals and time spelling requirements for plantation development and maintenance of 

the various sectors, Rs. 3.48 lakh is approved for the Annual Plan 2006-07. 

14.00: BAFACOS: 

Bamboo Flowering and Famine Combating Scheme (BAFACOS) for Soil Consevration 

Engineering works consisting of Land development, Water Harvesting Pond, Gully control

FISHERIES 

The main thrust during Annual Plan 2006-2007 is to bring in more additional water 

areas under culture sector as well as to develop the riverine fisheries in the capture sector 

so as to boost up the fish production level in the state and generate employment and 

income to the rural areas which would combat the impending famine due to Bamboo 

Flowering in the region. 

To increase the fish production Department of Fisheries proposed to implement the 

following CSS programme during 2006-2007 beside annual plan scheme i.e., Fish Seed 

Production-cum-Farming at different established Fish Seed Farms. 

1) Development of Fresh Water Aquaculture through Fish Farms Development 

Agency(FFDA). 

2) Development of waterlogged area of Integrated Fish Farming. 

3) Development of Riverine Fisheries through Integrated Development of Inland 

Capture Resources(Reservoirs/ Rivers etc). 

4) Cold water Fisheries and Aquaculture. 

5) Information, Extension & Training. 

The funding pattern of scheme under Sl.1-4 are 75:25 (75 percent Central share and 

25 percent State share) and scheme under Sl.5 is 80:20(80% Central and 20% State). The State 

matching share partly proposed to be shared from the BAFFACOS as the item proposed are 

similar to CSS programme and for remaining items of works/subsidy will be provided from 

State annual plan during 2006-2007. 

Besides above, Department of Fisheries also aims at implementing BAFFACOS during 

2006-2007 to create more new water areas, providing Fish Farming inputs and Farmers 

training to boost fish production in the rural area. 

Therefore, the Annual Plan 2006-2007 envisages to bring in an additional 510 Ha 

water area for fish culture by constructing new ponds and renovating/improvement of 

existing fish ponds and establishing fresh water fish hatchery through FFDA & BAFFACOS 

and by implementing other CSS programs mentioned above. It is also targeted to produce 

additional fish production of 35% from the present level of 2500M.T in the culture sector. 

In order to avail the District wise approach of Central assistance for Fish Farmers 

Development Agency under Fresh Water Aquaculture (CSS) and for ensuring fisheries 

development faster in each District it is also proposed to create 3(three) new Fish Farmers 

Development Agency (CS) Units for Champhai, Serchhip and Lawngtlai Distrit during the 

Annual Plan, 2006-2007.

3. FRESH WATER AQUACULTURE AND DEVELOPMENT OF WATERLOGGED AREA: 



(A) FRESH WATER AQUACULTURE:- 

Government of India has sanctioned 5(five) FFDA (Fish Farmers Development 

Agency) to be implemented sharing the fund on approved item of works by Central 

Government and State Government on 75:25 basis at Aizawl, Kolasib, Mamit, Lunglei and 

Saiha Districts. The scheme will continue during 2006-2007. The item of work under 

BAFFACOS like construction of new fresh ponds, renovation/reclamation of existing ponds, 

providing inputs for fish farming and imparting training programme to the fish farmers are 

similar under FFDA programme. To avail the share of Government of India it is proposed to 

avail the subsidy for farmers for above works from Government of India for increasing more 

water areas as well as for establishment of Laboratory at state level for testing water quality 

and fish health investigation. Under the scheme there is provision for availing subsidy to 

individual farmers for integrated fish farming, aerator/pumps, setting up fresh water fish 

seed Hatchery and for establishment of fish feed unit on private sector. It is targeted to 

boost up the level of fish production to the tune of 4,000 M.T during 2006-07. 

Further, the Annual Plan 2006-07 also envisages creation of 2(two) new Fish Farmers 

Development Agency Units for Champhai and Serchhip Districst as per the Govt.of India’s 

district wise approach of Fish Farmers Development Agency (CSS). The potentiality and 

resources for fish farming is high in every District of Mizoram. Therefore functioning of 

Fish Farmers Development Agency Units in every District is necessary for proper 

exploitation of resource towards boosting up fish yield by availing the District-wise Central 

assistance under Fresh Water Aquaculture. This will ensure the fisheries development much

- 64 - 


more faster in the individual districts in achieving the targets of self sufficiency in Mizoram. 

Therefore, it is targeted to create 2 nos. of new Fish Farmers Development Agency Units, 1 

each for Champhai and Serchhip Districts during 2006-2007. 

It is further proposed to replace 3 old vehicles of the Department by purchasing 

three new vehicles under FFDA programme by availing Central Assistance. The following 

item of works is proposed under the programme during 2006-2007. 

An outlay of Rs. 37.30 lakh has been provided in the Annual Plan 2006-07 as State 

share under Fresh Water Aquaculture as per details shown below in the following paras. 

(B) DEVELOPMENT OF WATERLOGGED AREA:- 

Under Macro Management Programme of CSS in Fisheries sector Govt.of India has 

approved a Scheme for Development of Waterlogged area at 75:25 (75 percent Central share 

and 25 percent State Govt. share) funding pattern under the scheme there is provision of 

subsidy for Development of waterlogged area, supply of inputs (Fish/Prawn) seed, feed, etc., 

training stipend. In Mizoram, about 50% of WRC area available are waterlogged where only 

one crop of Rice is harvested. If these lands can be reclaimed integrated fish farming – 

Paddy cum fish culture can be done and farmers can harvest two crops per year with high 

income generation. During 2006-2007, it is targetted to develop 50 Ha. of waterlogged area 

for integrated fish farming. 

Details of the aforesaid schemes viz. — Fresh Water Aquaculture Scheme and 

Development of Waterlogged Area with an approved total outlay of Rs. 42.90 lakh for the

(ii) Approved Annual Plan Outlay 2006-2007 = Rs. 0.50 lakh 

Inland Capture Fisheries (Reservoirs/Rivers, etc.) is a approved scheme under CSS 

programme of Government of India on Development of Inland Fisheries and Aquaculture 

under Macro Management approach in stated during 2005-2006 and will continue upto 10 th 

Plan period. Government of India also recommended the implementation of schemes 

through the Fisheries Department of State Government on 75:25 central and state share 

financing pattern. During 2006-2007, it is proposed to implement the scheme under CSS 

programme by availing 75% scheme cost from Central Government and providing 25% State 

annual plan fund taking a view for conservation and protection of Rivers/Reservoirs 

fisheries. Conservation and protection of Riverine Fisheries is quite essential to enhance the 

fish yield from the Rivers/Reservoirs etc. (Capture sector). The Department has taken up 

ranching programme in the rivers by the stocking fish seeds to propagate the Riverine and 

Reservoirs stocks. More efforts are required to study and survey the major riverine system 

towards conservation and propagation of economic varieties of fishes.

1. BACKGROUND AND STRATEGY: 

- 76 - 


ENVIRONMENTS & FORESTS 

Mizoram State with hilly terrain and primarily agricultural economy is inhabited by 

tribal population. Soil and Water are two important resources on which growth and 

productivity of agricultural economy depends. Forests play important role in production 

and conservation of soil and water. Forests also provide many important day-to-day needs 

of local population such as fuel, fodder, timber, food in form of wild fruits and vegetables 

and other non-wood forests produce. Forests play a vital role in environment stability, 

ecological balance and over all economic development of the state like Mizoram 

undoubtedly revolves around the Forests. 

National Forest Policy 1988 stipulate that hilly and mountainous regions like 

Mizoram need to maintain at least 2/3 of the total geographical area under tree cover in 

order to prevent soil erosion, land degradation and protection of the fragile eco-system. As 

against this goal, at present notified forests (reserved/protected forests) constitute about 

38% of the geographical area and even most of these are open, degraded and subjected to 

pressure of shifting cultivation, forest fire and other forms of biotic pressures. 

Shifting cultivation is still widely practiced in Mizoram. These practices not only 

affect ecology of the area but also decrease natural regeneration of tree species to a 

considerable extent. The destruction of habitat of plants and animals has not only led to the 

reduction in population of wild animals in the forest, but also rendering many species of 

rare plants and animals to the extent of becoming endangered/extinction. 

The survey, demarcation, mapping and settlement of land including forest lands is a 

pre-requisite for evolving proper integrated land use system. This task is yet to be 

completed in the state. Hence for proper control and scientific management of forests on a 

sustainable basis, consolidation of notified forests/reserved forests will be necessary. 

The productivity of forests is already very low in Mizoram. There has been very little 

silvicultural research to evolve technologies and practices suiting to local conditions to 

increase productivity. Destruction of forests by illicit fellings and removal of forest produce 

to meet domestic need of Timber and Firewood, besides, forest fire, encroachments and 

grazing are common. Protection of forests from such detrimental factors is inevitable for 

ecological and environmental security. 

There is a wide gap between supplies from existing forests and the ever increasing 

demands. Hence to increase production of timber and non-timber forest produce to meet 

local needs and to reduce the gap between demands and the supply, undertaking massive 

afforestation programme through plantation of utility tree species and aided natural 

regeneration would be necessary. Plantations created earlier need periodic tending for 

improving wood production. It would be necessary to provide sufficient funds for managing 

the forest to scientifically achieve maximum biomass and non-timber forest produce from 

the forests. To meet increasing demand of forest produce and at the same time reduce 

pressure on existing shrinking forest resources, extension of tree cover beyond conventional 

forest areas would be necessary. For this purpose, tree growing and protecting forests with 

active involvement and participation of private individuals need to be promoted on massive 

scale through proper extension programmes to cope up with the increased work 

programme.

- 77 - 


North-East India is considered to be a mega-bio-diversity region. Wildlife are 

important resources which play vital role in ensuring ecological stability. In recent years 

poaching of animals for the purpose of earning money has become a big challenge to the 

Forest Department is Protection capabilities in terms of mobility, equipments and trained 

manpower to keep this undesirable activity under proper check. 

To cope up with the increased work programmes, and to ensure better preservation, 

and management of forests and wildlife for sustainable use of forest resources 

strengthening of forest organisation with respect to manpower and human resource 

development through training is necessary. Equipments technology and facilities are also 

extremely necessary.

are summarised as follows: -

quality in grade and standards.

standards between distant places.

can produce more in future.

a) It facilitates uniformity in fixation of prices of the commodities. 

b) It facilitates collection of the same quality of products. 

c) It facilitates management of stocking or storage facilities. 

d) It facilitates arrangement of fund for procurements and it makes the dealers 

more reliable.

Instruments and to educate and motivate the producers, a sum of 1.00 lakh is 

approved. 

2) Quality Control: The need of Quality control has no deep root in the mind of 

producers in Mizoram. For this reason, the Agricultural Produces in Mizoram are regarded 

as inferior in quality. As such, the producer cannot fetch better prices from their produces 

due to lack of Quality Control. Some of the producers may think Quality Control is meant 

for the consumers only, but this is not so. Quality Control is also beneficial to the producers 

and consumers both. Thus, it is necessary to educate and motivate the producers in respect 

of Quality Control. 

A sum of Rs. 1.00 lakh is approved for imparting awareness of Quality Control.

cultivation and ownership of land. As such, jhum control measure has been adopted and at 

the same time house sites are also planed at various locations for allotment to the poor and 

needy families. The whole activities of the Department are, therefore, closely linked with 

Land Reforms Programme. 

Meanwhile, the Department, due to inadequate administrative infrastructure, cannot 

cope with the phenomenal increase in the range and volume of work in the pattern of land 

management particularly in rural areas. 

The Centrally Sponsored Scheme for Strengthening of Revenue Administration and 

Updating of Land Records at 50:50 (Central : State) sharing basis is being implemented, and 

the Annual Plan is also prepared in conformity with this Scheme.

(a) Mizoram covers geographical area measuring 21,087.00 Sq. Kms. where jhumming is 

widely practised. As such, jhum control measure has been adopted and at the same time, 

the land reform programme envisages wean off such primitive type of cultivation by means 

of modern land use planning, allotment and settlement of land to the famine affected and 

needy families. The whole activities of the Land Reforms Department are therefore, closely 

linked with the New Land Reforms Programme of the State. Under the New Land Reforms 

Programme, Summary Land Survey of villages are conducted since 1999 and now 18 R.D. 

Blocks are already surveyed and recorded. Under this programme, the Development Project 

Survey for the allotment of Agricultural Land for Bamboo Plantation had also been taken up 

since 2001-02 in the river valley of R.Tlawng and R.Tuirial valleys in scattered areas. 

The Government of Mizoram had therefore proposed to take up the scheme in large 

scale during 2004-05 keeping in view of ensuring Mautam, 2007 (Bamboo Flowering). It is 

estimated that bamboo grown area in Mizoram covers about 10,333.00 Sq. Kms. consisting 

of about 20 species of bamboo. Mizoram is having about 14% of India’s bamboo products. It 

is therefore proposed to conduct multipurpose cadastre Development Project Survey

proposed to be covered by this estimated amount, i.e. Rs. 115.00 lakh. 

(b) Scope of the Project: The scope of the project is to conduct multipurpose Cadastre 

Development Project Survey and allotment and settlement of Agricultural Land to famine 

affected families for development of bamboo plantation and to wean off shifting cultivation. 

So that the famine affected people will get labour employment to earn money by jungle 

clearance in the survey work and to sell the natural bamboo without payment royalty before 

bamboo flowering. Better quality of bamboo may be planted in the land after bamboo 

flowering year. 

(c) Phasing Activities: The sequences of activities will be as follows: - 

(i) Reconnaissance Survey 

(ii) Control Survey 

(iii) Detail Survey 

(iv) Procurement of Survey, Drawing, Printing/ Computer Hardwares 

(v) Generation and Production of Village Cadastral Map/ Parcel Map

MEDIUM IRRIGATION (PWD) 

Mizoram is having a hilly topography. Shifting cultivation is the main method of 

cultivation of food grains and vegetables. The method causes vast destruction of natural 

resources in the form of deforestation and heavy soil erosion. However, at a few scattered 

pockets in plain areas of major river banks, wet rice cultivation is also carried out. 

The scope of Medium Irrigation in Mizoram is therefore very limited, but protection 

of riverbanks from overflowing to the existing cultivable plain is very much required. It is 

therefore, approved to take up this work with a provision of Rs. 1.00 lakh during 2006- 

2007. 

DIRECTION AND ADMINISTRATION: 

No provision is made for Direction and Administration during 2006-2007 under 

this Head of Accounts. 

MACHINERY AND EQUIPMENT: 

WORKS: 

No provision is kept for Machinery and Equipment during 2006-2007. 

Rs. 1.00 lakh is kept under this Head of Account during 2006-2007 for bank 

protection of R.Teirei under Mamit Division.

Sources of funding for implementation of Diversion Schemes are Central Loan 

Assistance (CLA) under Accelerated Irrigation Benefits Programme (AIBP) and Rural 

Infrastructure Development Fund (RIDF) under NABARD Schemes. 

AIBP (Accelerated Irrigation Benefits Programme): So far, 77 Minor Irrigation Projects have 

been taken up under AIBP, of which, 34 projects covering Cultural Command Area of 1,605 

ha had been completed and 43 projects (total Culturable Command Area=1,541 ha) are 

scheduled to be completed during 2005-06. By the end of 2005-06, it is anticipated that 77 

Minor Irrigation Projects covering 3,146 ha of culturable command area will be completed. 

During 2006-07, Rs. 2300.00 lakh (Central Loan Assistance under AIBP - Rs. 2,000.00 

lakh + State matching share - Rs. 300.00 lakh) is earmarked for execution of new Minor 

Irrigation Projects under AIBP. 

In view of the Bharat Nirman initiative launched by Government of India, a new 

scheme of ‘Extension, Renovation and Modernization (ERM) of Minor Irrigation Schemes’ 

under AIBP have been introduced in the Annual Plan of Minor Irrigation during 2006-07 to 

increase created potential and enhance utilization of created irrigation potentials in 

completed Minor Irrigation Projects. Gross irrigated area in 2004 is 15,749 ha and the area 

covered by Minor Irrigation Projects completed under Minor Irrigation Schemes is 6,646 ha. 

During 2006-07, Rs.500.00 lakh is earmarked for Extension, Renovation and Modernization 

of Minor Irrigation Schemes under AIBP. 

The total outlay for AIBP during 2006-07 is Rs. 2800.00 lakh (Central Share – 

Rs.2500.00 lakh + one time ACA for matching share - Rs. 300.00) 

RIDF (Rural Infrastructural Development Fund) under NABARD: During 2006-07, 3 spillover 

projects under RIDF-X will be completed with Rs. 81.43 lakh, and 12 new schemes/ 

projects will be taken up under RIDF-XI with the annual outlay of Rs. 124.50 lakh (NABARD 

Loan = 95% = Rs. 118.57 lakh and State matching share = 5% = Rs. 5.93 lakh). All the 12 new 

projects are scheduled to be completed within 31.3.2008. 

While Operation & Maintenance of completed Minor Irrigation Projects is under the 

joint responsibilities of the project beneficiaries and the Department, frequent repairs and 

reconstruction of monsoon damages are required due to torrential rains during monsoon. A 

provision of Rs. 2.97 lakh is made for repair and reconstruction of monsoon damages

There are 643 nos of work charge staff and 2362 nos of Muster Roll labours and 

1098 Regular Staff to maintain existing Power Systems under plan fund. 

Item-wise provision of fund are as follows: — 

1. Direction & Administration: There are 1098 nos. of plan posts which had not been 

converted into non-plan posts. The establishment of these 1098 posts had to be met from 

plan fund. In addition to the above posts there are many infrastructural assets created since 

7 th Five year Plan. The maintenance of these assets are still met from plan fund as the same 

are not yet committed to non-plan. The total requirement, including salary of ZEDA Staff, 

for maintenance of Direction & Administration, as on today is Rs. 2890.00 lakh which has 

been increased from last year due to increase of dearness allowance and labour cost 

The agreed outlay of the Department during 2005–06 is Rs. 9116.00 lakh out of 

which Rs. 6363.00 lakh was earmarked. Hence, Non-Earmarked fund is only Rs. 2692.00 lakh 

which was not sufficient to meet only Direction and Administration. In 2006-07, nonearmarked 

fund over and above Direction and Administration, we have Rs. 762.00 lakh to 

execute the plan works. But, some amount needs to be pulled out to meet additional 

requirement of Direction and Administration. 

2. State Normal Assistance (SNA): From State Normal Assistance (SNA), we have 

Rs.3992.00 lakh during 2006-07. Some of which are earmarked to meet D&A and liabilities 

of Thermal Plant, Bairabi. Fund will be utilized as stated below : 

1) Direction & Administration - Rs. 2890.00 

2) For various improvement works - Rs. 552.00 

3) Thermal Generation, Bairabi - Rs. 550.00 

Total - Rs. 3992.00

- 146 - 


3. Rural Electrification Corporation Ltd. Negotiated Loan: This is Negotiated Loan to 

be availed from Rural Electrification Corporation Ltd, Government of India against approved 

schemes. Normally the loan amount is Rs. 658.00 lakh meant for Improvement of 

Transmission and Distribution Network in Mizoram. 

1) Construction of Transmission lines - Rs. 658.00 lakh 


4. Accelerated Power Development & Reform Programe (APDRP): This scheme is 

under earmarked sector of which Rs. 1900.00 lakh (Capital content) is earmarked for 2006- 

2007 for improvement of sub-transmission & Distribution networks within Mizoram. 

5. A.C.A. (One-time Additional Central Assistance): This is one-time Additional 

Central Assistance (ACA) earmarked for Power Development during 2006 – 07 and the 

budget provision is Rs. 650.00 Fund will be utilized for :- 

1) Liabilities for Thermal Plant, Bairabi - Rs. 650.00 lakh 


6. Non-Conventional Source of Energy (NCSE): For Non-Conventional Source of 

Energy, Rs. 50.00 lakh is set aside during 2005 - 2006 for taking up non-conventional 

system of energy sources. This fund will be transferred to ZEDA as grant-in-aid, as this 

organisation is nodal agency for such works. 

7. Integrated Rural Electric Programme (IREP): Under this scheme, Rs. 11.00 lakh is 

made available from Rural Development Ministry and Rs. 11.00 lakh is earmarked for 2005- 

2006. The fund will be transferred to ZEDA as grant-in-aid as ZEDA is the nodal agency for 

non-conventional source of energy. 

8. District-wise sharing of fund: The function and organisation set-up of the 

Department is not based on administrative district of the state. Most of the projects are 

inter-related each other as power system is interconnected throughout the state. As such the 

project in one district is also benefited to the people in other districts. Hence, sharing of 

fund in district wise cannot be properly differentiated 

9. Conclusion: Annual Plan 2006 – 2007 is framed based on the Sectoral Allocation 

given by State Planning Board, Government of Mizoram.

SERICULTURE 

Introduction: 

Sericulture Industry is family-oriented, labour intensive, ideally suited to countries in 

the tropical region where unemployment continues to be a serious problem. It has also been 

said to be a meeting place of Agriculture, Arts and Industries as it involves in cultivation of 

Silkworm food plants, Seed production and rearing of silkworms are an Art requiring skilled 

hands and the post cocoon technology upto its marketing are purely Industries. 

Sericulture practices can rightly fit into the Socio-economic structure of the rural 

areas and play significant role for reconstruction of rural economy benefiting mostly the 

weaker section of the society. The most important consideration is the effective utilization 

of family manpower, indiscriminately, the old aged, handicapped, illiterate and women folk. 

It is also the most important tool to fill up the gap between the rich and the poor 

distributing wealth among the farmers, reelers, weavers and traders where the lion share 

goes to the poor farmers. 

In fact, Sericulture is practised as a viable rural Industry as it gives remunerative 

employment to family labour throughout the year and ensures periodic income even from 

small land holding with low financial investment. It has a ready market and is export 

oriented. 

Objectives: 

(i) To uplift the rural economy in the State. 

(ii) To generate direct and indirect gainful employment. 

(iii) In the context of Mizoram, it aims at weaning away the devastating Jhum Cultivation 

by establishing Sericulture farming in the private sector, which will be permanent 

and sustainable occupation for the rural poor. 

(iv) To produce more cocoons and raw silks for the benefit of the farmer in particular 

and to increase the State’s revenue in general. 

Uniqueness: 

(i) The wealth is transferred from the rich to the poor where maximum share goes to 

the poor. 

(ii) Indiscriminate utilization of family manpowers. In other words, in Sericulture 

activities all kinds of people can equally involved. 

(iii) Nothing is practically a waste in Sericulture. Mulberry twigs are used as firewood, the 

litters a manure, the pupae for oil extraction, poultry/fish/human feed, the Mulberry 

trunk for making cricket bat, hockey stick, etc. 

The State of Mizoram has been proved to be an ideal place for the development of 

Sericulture Industry. The climatic condition, rainfall and fertility of the soil are congenial for 

cultivation of Silkworm food plants and rearing of Silkworms of all varieties like Mulberry, 

Eri, Muga and Oak Tasar. A team of experts from the Central Silk Board had visited Mizoram 

in November, 1976 to conduct feasibility survey. The team had visited many parts of the 

State and their finding was reproduced as follows: — 

The State of Mizoram has all the prerequisites for the development of all kind of 

Silkworm varieties.

- 175 - 


The Sericulture experts from JICA who have visited Mizoram in March, 2000 have 

also realised with much surprise the fact that without application of fertilizer/manure for 

years together the Mulberry trees thrive well and put forth leaf almost throughout the year. 

The four sectors of Sericulture Industry which are being exploited on commercial 

basis are: — 

(a) Mulberry: Mulberry can successfully be propagated through cuttings or saplings 

anywhere in the State. 

(b) Eri: The food plants of Eri Silkworm like Kesseru, Castor, Tapioca, etc. etc. can be 

grown anywhere in the State. 

(c) Muga: The main food plants of Muga Silkworm like Som and Soalu are sparcely 

scattered almost everywhere in Mizoram which can easily be systematised through 

block plantation. 

(d) Oak Tasar: It has been estimated that over 30000 hectares of natural grown Oak 

trees are available in the north eastern part of the State. The Oak trees are the main 

food plant of Oak Tasar Silkworm. 

In spite of all the aforesaid advantages that the State of Mizoram has for the 

development of Sericulture Industry, the growth of Sericulture Department in the State has 

been at a very slow pace and the reasons to this are attributed to lack of the required 

infrastructural facilities, paucity of fund, inadequate number of staff, etc. 

During the 10 th Plan period (2002-2007), Sericulture Department will intensify its 

Plan and implementation Programmes towards production of Bivoltine Mulberry Silk and 

also Eri and Muga Sectors shall be given importance simultaneously. To meet these ends 

maximum quantity of high yielding Mulberry variety, som/soalu and kesseru/castor shall be 

introduced in the private sectors. In the meantime seed Grainages, rearing and post cocoon 

Technologies shall be upgraded/improved as far as practicable. 

Since various Catalytic Programmes under Silk Board are proposed to be 

implemented during the tenth Plan period, necessary provision as matching contributions 

have been made during 2006-2007 under promotion Scheme. 

THE SCHEMES: 

There are 8 (eight) on going schemes implemented by the Department during the 

tenth Plan period and these schemes have satisfactorily been implemented during the first 

three years of the Tenth Plan. As in the previous year, priority shall be given to the following 

work components during 2006-2007 which are mentioned below. 

(1) During 2005-2006, 1630 acres have been covered with new Mulberry Plantation as 

against the target of 500 acres. Another 1500 acres of land shall be covered under 

improved variety of mulberry during 2006-2007. 

(2) One Staff quarter is proposed to be constructed at Sericulture complex, Chaltlang 

and the existing buildings at different farms shall be renovated/ repaired as per 

availability of fund. 

(3) Silk Reeling Factory shall be improved as far as possible in order to produce quality 

Raw Silk. Meanwhile the Silk Weaving Unit may be revived if need arise for 

production quality silk fabric.

Since a separate marketing cell has not yet been created, the marketing activity is 

directly controlled by the Directorate through the District Officers. Generally marketing 

activities should not come within the purview of the Department in case there exists Master 

Reelers and Weavers in the private sector in the State. In the absence of Reelers and Weavers 

in the State the marketing activities are bound to be looked after by the Department alone. 

In this circumstance, the Department is compelled to continue to purchase cocoons 

produced by the farmers and reel them in the reeling factory for producing raw silk. 

Since a provision for purchase of Cocoons has been made under Baffacos a provision 

of Rs. 10.00 lakh under material supplies shall be utilised for purchase of fencing materials.

SCHEME NO. V : RESEARCH & TRAINING 

As already mentioned in the aforesaid para, Sericulture Industry is an Agro-based 

which requires wide range of Scientific technologies with different financial investments. 

Therefore, proper studies on silkworm metamorphose, pathology, Agronomy, Arboriculture 

and ecology are indispensable to make Sericulture Industry flourish economically viable. 

The success of Sericulture Industry largely depend on the availability of required Scientific 

knowledge and its application in the field at the right time and at the right place. 

This can be achieved through realisation of the importance of Research and Training 

activities based on well-organised scientific lines, equipped with the most advanced 

scientific instruments to evolve new concepts of scientific methodology for application to 

field activities with minimum financial investment. 

At this end, the Department of Sericulture had established one Research and 

Training Institute at Zemabawk with the following objectives. 

1. To depute B.Sc. graduates for training in post Graduate Diploma in Sericulture to 

various Sericulture Institutes in India. 

2. To Impart training to matriculates for one year certificate course training. 

3. To Impart short-term training to the in-service personnel and the private farmers. 

4. To conduct study tours for trainees from time to time. 

5. To conduct mobile training to farmers of far flung areas. During 2006-2007, it is 

proposed to train 1000 farmers and 50 in-service persons.

SCHEME NO.VI : SILK PROCESSING 

The main theme of Sericulture Industry is to make earnings through Sales of various 

Sericulture products to individuals, societies in the State. 

Unless the cocoons so produced are processed to produce raw silk and silk fabrics, 

Sericulture activities are said to be incomplete. The cocoons produced are subjected to 

various post Cocoon technologies in order to produce quality raw silk and silk goods for 

sale in the market. 

The cocoon processing comprises of selection of quality cocoons, stifling, cooking, 

degumming, reeling/spinning, twisting, weaving and so on. Cocoon processing required 

highly skilled hands in order to produce quality raw silk and silk fabrics to catch viable 

markets. 

At this objective, the Sericulture Department is having one Reeling Factory at 

Zemabawk. Apart from producing raw silk and silk fabrics these units have also been 

producing silk quilts in abundance which has marketing potential everywhere in the 

country. Since the production of reeling cocoons is increasing year after year, it has become 

a necessity to have one more Reeling machine like the existing ones. Under this scheme 

there is one silk weaving and dyeing unit at Aizawl where silk fabrics of various designs are 

produced. 

Therefore the main aim of this scheme is to create & encourage private reelers/ 

weavers so as to sustain their livelihood through sales of their products. 

However, to make the Department capable of increasing the revenue through Sales of 

Sericultural products, the reeling factory has to be strengthened by providing necessary 

infrastructures.

SCHEME NO. VII : SEED ORGANISATION 

Common Occurrence of crop failure is exclusively attributed to bad quality of 

silkworm seeds. Therefore production of quality seed is a vital aspect for the success of 

Sericulture Industry. Quality seed may be defined as seed which is completely free from 

diseases. 

The whole gamut of seed production comprises of seed organisation for systematic 

and methodical multiplication of basic seed and Industrial seed on Scientific line and its 

proper and efficient management of breeders stock and its multiplication for the ultimate 

production of Industrial hybrid seed. Seed production involved in maintenance of breeder’s 

stock, basic seed and industrial seed and maintaining the purity, its vigour and vitality. 

Although three distinct phases for seed production are involved in systematic seed 

organisation in normal case, the seed organisation designed to be operative in Mizoram 

consists of a simple three-tiers system namely — (a) Basic seed centre, (b) Multiplication 

Centre and (c) Industrial Grainage.

- 181 - 


The basic seed centre, Rangvamual is acting as Breeder`s stock which will produce 

only pure bred silkworm races of not less than four varieties. The seeds produced are then 

distributed equally to the selected Multiplication centres. 

The distinctive characteristic of the multiplication centres in seed organisation in 

Mizoram is that they only produce quality seed cocoons whereas in other states they are 

producing seed cocoons and silkworm seeds (eggs). The seed cocoons produced by these 

centres are then brought to the Industrial Grainage, Zemabawk for production of hybrid 

eggs to feed the private farmers. 

Maintenance of all the Multiplication Centres like Vairengte, Kolasib, Serchhip, 

Thenzawl, Baktawng, Lunglei, Champhai, Phullen, Rangvamual and Zemabawk will 

henceforth be looked after under this scheme. 

Depending on the actual requirement of hybrid seeds in the States, the industrial 

Grainage is expected to produce as much seeds as possible from season to season. 

Main components of the scheme are :- 

(1) Purchase of equipment/appliances, etc., etc. 

(2) To produce as much seeds as possible as per the requirements and the targets 

made for the concerned year.

ACTION PLAN FOR MULBERRY PLANTATION AND SILKWORM REARING 

UNDER BAFFACOS, 2006 - 2007 

During 2005-06, the Department has taken up Mulberry Sericulture covering 250 

Nos. of farmers under various components like Land Development, Mulberry Cultivation, 

Construction of Rearing Houses and Supply of Rearing appliances. The Department is 

allotted 100.00 lakh which is expected will be utilised fully. 

The Scheme will be continued during 2006-07 for the 3 rd year covering 350 Nos. of 

farmers under the similar components. The fund allotted under BAFFACOS during 2006-07 

is Rs. 115.00 lakh. 

Apart from implementing the same components, fund will be provided for purchase 

of Cocoons for the farmers who had planted Mulberry during 2005-06 are going to start 

silkworm rearing and thereby producing Cocoons. During April 2006, the farmers are 

expected to produce Cocoons and earning handsome income regularly.

- 182 - 


The components to be taken up during 2006-07 are as follows :- 

A. LAND DEVELOPMENT 

Land Development includes clearing of Jungles, burning and land preparation, pit 

digging and plantation of the inputs. The individual farmers will be assisted for land 

development as per the norm. 

B. SUPPLY OF MULBERRY CUTTINGS 

The farmers will be supplied with improved high yielding varieties of Mulberry @ 

Rs.20,000/- each to cover 1 hactare of land. The cuttings has to be planted @ 2 Nos. cuttings 

per pit. 

C. PURCHASE OF COCOONS 

Fund has to be earmarked to purchase the Cocoons to the tune of 

Rs. 35.00 lakh in order to make immediate payment of the Cocoons form the farmers. The 

Department has to collect the Cocoons from the farmers. 

The components of the scheme may be summed up as follows : 

Sl. No. Components Physical Financial (Rs. in lakh)

depending upon the grades. 

N.A 45.00 

Total = Rs. 115.00 

IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY 

The selected farmers will be assisted by supply of Mulberry Cuttings @ 20,000 Nos. 

each at free of cost during May–June, 2006. Assistance will be given for Land Development, 

Plantation etc. as per the norms prescribed by the Department. Contribution of the 

beneficiaries will be in form of family manpower. Fund will also be provided for purchase of 

Cocoons produced by the farmers. 

It is, therefore, expected that the farmers will earn regular income through Silkworm 

rearing and Cocoon production within a year. Once Mulberry plantation is matured, it will 

last about 20 years, and the farmer has to look after the garden and conduct Silkworm 

rearing 5-6 times in a year.

ROAD TRANSPORT 

Road Transport continues to be important means of transportation system in 

Mizoram for easy movement of passengers and goods from one place to another at 

minimum rates of fare. The Government of Mizoram, with its blanket policy of Privatization 

of Government Vehicles, decided to phase out the M.S.T. Wing of the Transport Department. 

However, due to peculiar nature of public transportation service it delivers to the general 

public at low cost fare and freights, the M.S.T. service will also continue to play a vital role 

for some years ahead while this privatization programme is gradually implemented. It will 

also take time to gradually minimize the need of MST service for rural people. 

Simultaneously, the Transport Department, with its existing technical manpower 

resource, can conveniently act as a centralized nodal Department for maintenance of the 

remaining fleet of Government Vehicles. Declaring the Department as nodal Department will 

prove to ensure economy in Government expenditures as well as speedy mechanical service 

for various departments of the Government avoiding cumbersome procedures of engaging 

private workshops. This regulated practice will also prevent the Departments from incurring 

heavy liabilities to private firms for maintenance of their vehicles. 

The Annual Plan 2006-07, therefore, aims to carry out this two-prong programme. 

On one hand, it was continue to function as important public transportation system 

delivering passengers and goods to various locations, and on the other hand, upgradation of 

its Central Workshop, to equip it with infrastructural needs of modernized machinery and 

tools. It also envisages for providing up gradation of the Central Workshop revamping its 

technical and mechanical skill and service to be able to cater the need for maintenance of all 

vehicles under the Government by promoting security, efficiency, economy and properly 

coordinated system of management. Thus, these schemes have been made for inclusion 

within the limited approved outlay of Rs. 500.00 lakh for the Annual Plan 2006-07. 

The following are the schemes approved to be taken up during the Annual Plan

INLAND WATER TRANSPORT (I.W.T.) 

Due to the absence of good navigable waterways in Mizoram, less work is 

undertaken under Inland Water Transport. Presently, there is hardly any Inland Water 

Transport in use. This may be partly attributed to the discharge of rivers in Mizoram which 

varies very widely. During rainy season, the discharge of water become very high carrying 

large quantities of debris, logs, boulders etc. making navigation difficult whereas during dry 

period, water level is low and the debris, etc. deposited during rainy season becomes 

obstructions. 

The road network in Mizoram is such that in remote and interior areas, roads have to 

cross rivers. Bridges could not be constructed due to fund constraints. Marboat and Country 

boats have to be utilized for carrying vehicles and men across the rivers. 

Therefore, the fund provided under this head is approved to be utilized for 

improving river crossing facilities. Rs. 5.00 lakh is approved under this Head of Accounts 

during 2006 -2007. 


No provision is made for Direction and Administration during 2006 -2007 under this 

Head of Account. 


WORKS: 


The following works will be taken up during 2006-2007 under this Head of Accounts. 

i) Improvement of Ferry and Marboat at Tuipui on Lawngtlai – Saiha Feeder roads: 

Rs.1.50 lakh is approved during 2006 - 2007 for improvement of existing Marboat at 

R.Tuipui. 

ii) Improvement of Ferry and Marboat at Bairabi: Rs.3.50 lakh is approved during 

2006-2007 for improvement of ferry & Marboat at Bairabi.

MOTOR VEHICLE WING 

The Motor Vehicle Wing under Transport Department functions with its subordinate 

offices at District headquarters enforcing MV Acts and Rules and also looked after all 

matters relating to State Transport Authority (STA). 

Recently, the duties and responsibilities of MV Wing have considerably increased due 

to the enormously increasing vehicle population in the State. To cope with the future 

expansion, it is felt necessary to upgrade its standard with modern technology such as 

introduction of I.T. and computerization, strengthening and widening its functions. 

As a result, the State Government had already opened new Districts offices such as 

at Champhai, Kolasib and Serchhip and are functioning with no full-fledged establishment. 

Besides, two new DTO offices are proposed for opening at Lawngtlai and Mamit during this 

Annual Plan 2006-07. Thus, entertainment of posts for these newly opened DTO offices is 

inevitable. Keeping in view the need for entertaining of posts and upgradation of newly 

establishments, the Annual Plan approved outlay for M.V. Wing for the year 2006-07 comes 

to Rs. 100.00 lakh. 

The following are the schemes approved to be taken up during the Annual Plan

rice cultivation, and other cash crops like oilseed, ginger, chilies, seas am, turmeric, black 

pepper and various other horticulture plants. The vast fertile land available in the valleys of 

two major rivers. Thega and Tuichawng, if harnessed properly, self sufficiency in food grain

There was joint survey conducted by representative of Government of India and 

Pachhunga University College, Aizawl during 1996 and 911 villages / habitations were 

identified in Mizoram. This is the main database for planning of Rural Water Supply 

Programme. 

After making much head way in rural water supply programme, the status of rural 

water supply as on 1.4.2005 had become as indicated below : 

Non- Covered Partially Covered Fully Covered Total 

(NC) (PC) (FC) 

112 799 911 Nil

- 407 - 


There has been continuous depletion of capacity of water sources, rapid growth of 

population resulting in continuous change in the status of water supply. On the direction of 

Government of India, RGNDWM, Department of Drinking Water Supply, Ministry of Rural 

Development, New Delhi, habitation survey 2003 was conducted for assessing factual status 

of water supply in Mizoram. The habitation survey in 2003, after its validation by Indian 

Institute of Public Administration (IIPA), New Delhi has resulted in the status of water 

supply as indicated below and the same is under consideration of the Government of India 

for approval. 

Non-Covered Partially Covered Fully Covered Total 


187 430 159 776 

In addition, there are 110 habitations declared as uninhabited by the census 2001 

due to large scale of migration of Riang/Bru Community to neighbouring State which need 

to be covered with drinking water supply and sanitation following the Memorandum of 

Understanding (MoU) between Govt. of Mizoram and the Bru National Liberation Front ( 

BNLF ) signed on 26.4.2005. 

After incorporation of the above said 110 habitations the final status will be as 

under : 

Non-Covered Partially Covered Fully Covered Total 


297 430 159 886 

Note: The Non-Covered (NC) habitations have increased drastically because - 

(i) Some water supply sources dry up or existing water supply system become 

defunct and non-serviceable due to activities of soil erosion, landslide and 

deforestation etc. 

(ii) Govt. of India advised that water supply level below 10 lpcd may be treated 

as NC due to which those habitations having water supply level below 10 

lpcd, which were earlier categorised as PC habitations are grouped under NC 

habitations. 

(iii) Lowering of ground water table resulting in depletion of ground water. 

(iv) 110 Rural Habitations declared as un-in habitat by Government of India, 

Census 2001 need to be covered with Drinking Water Supply and Sanitation 

facilities for the reason stated in the preceding paragraph for which 

Government of India, Department of Drinking Water Supply, Ministry of Rural 

Development has already been requested and is also being taken up with the 

Registrar General of India and Census Commissioner, New Delhi. 

In respect of urban water supply, there are 22 (twenty two) notified towns in 

Mizoram. However, Lawngtlai town, the capital of Lai District Council, though not notified 

town is considered as town by Public Health Engineering Department. The status of water 

supply in Urban Towns as on 1.4.2005 are as indicated below.

POLICE HOUSING 

The fund provided under Police Housing plan is the main financial source for 

construction of office and residential quarters of Police Officers. Under this scheme, various 

types of residential quarters and administrative buildings such as office buildings, Police 

Station buildings and Out Post buildings, etc. had been constructed at various places in 

Mizoram since 1980. As a result of this, the condition of Mizoram Police is upgraded to 

some extend. As such, the introduction of Police Housing Schemes under Plan is very 

helpful for Mizoram Police. 

However, the State Government is unable to provide sufficient amount of fund for 

construction of more houses/buildings yearly as per requirement where sufficient lands are 

available, mainly due to financial constraint. The satisfaction level as targeted by BPR&D in 

respect of lower subordinate and upper subordinate is far from the present satisfaction 

level of Mizoram Police Housing. 

The State Government had fortunately increased the total annual outlay for 2005-06 

to Rs. 435.00 lakh. In addition to this, a sum of Rs. 130.00 lakh is further re-allocated under 

Police Housing (Plan) for clearing liabilities of fencing materials. 

The approved Annual Plan for the year 2006-07 for construction of various types of 

residential and administrative buildings etc is prepared within the amount of Rs. 545.00 

lakh in accordance with Commissioner, Planning & Programme Implementation Department, 

Govt. of Mizoram letter No. G. 28014/55/2006-07/SPB dt. 02.02.06. 

As there is no other relevant Scheme / head of account, construction of approach 

roads to BOP N.E. Khawdungsei, OP Thenzawl, SP’s Office Serchhip, Kolasib, 2 nd IR Bn. 

Khawzawl and repair of Internal motorable road of PTC Lungverh, which was damaged by 

heavy rains this year are also included and proposed in this Annual Plan 2006-07. These 

proposals are required to be taken up urgently. 

The detail item-wise of plan proposal for Annual Plan 2006-07 is enclosed herewith 

for favour of consideration and approval of the Government.

lakh is allocated for 2006 - 2007. 

2. CONSTRUCTION OF PARKS: Busy and unrest lives in the congested Towns and Cities 

are in need of some recreational places, where people could enjoy their leisure time. 

Without such places, lives in Towns and Cities could be frustrated and vain. During the 9 th 

Plan, 2(two) such recreational places were created, one at Aizawl called Public Recreational 

Centres, at Lawibual and the other at Lunglei called District Park, at Zobawk. Within an 

expenditure of Rs. 60.00 lakh, many works have been done with very useful achievements. 

But there are many scopes of further improvement and the two places are again proposed to

- 434 - 


3. CONSTRUCTIONS OF STEPS/RETAINING WALLS: Towns in Mizoram are situated on 

spur of Hills which steep down to the gorges of streams below between the spurs. Roads 

and residential lines go on the spurs in horizontal lines,. The only possible vertical link 

between the adjacent rows could be provided by construction of public foot steps just like 

staircases in multi-stories buildings. Due to irregular topography each and every spur in the 

Towns requires a number of foot steps. During the 9 th Plan, Rs. 275.00 lakh was utilised for 

construction of 39840 running metres of public steps at may places in the various Towns. 

Still much has to be done and the scheme is proposed to be continued in the 10 th Plan as 

new schemes in view of the fact that every item of works shall be taken up as new works. 

Rs. 950.00 lakh is proposed for the 10 th Plan for target of 103900 running meters Rs. 150.00 

lakh is provided for 2006 - 2007. The allocation is for distribution to District Headquarters

Kolasib are in need of expansion and improvement. A need has been felt to construct 

another dumping ground in the other direction route in order that town garbages could be 

disposed off all through the seasons. For these purposes, Rs. 80.00 lakh is proposed for the 

10 th Plan Rs. 10.00 lakh is allocated for 2006-2007. The main work shall be road 

construction for some distance from the main road, digging of dumping pits, construction 

of dumping platform as well as protection walls and vehicle turning points. etc. 

5 MONSOON DAMAGE SCHEME : 

Damage caused to roads, lanes, houses, properties and even lives due to heavy rains 

during rainy season are almost annual phenomenon in Mizoram.Here annual rainfall is 

mostly 250cm to 350cm, and the approximate intensity of rainfall is 70m per hour. Due to 

steep topography, the concentration flow of rain water is short and rapid. The very high 

peak flow of rain water causes landslides, thereby damaging roads, lanes, houses and 

properties. Hence restoration and repair works have to be taken up every year. A need is 

there to set apart certain outlay for such purposes as Monsoon damage fund. The proposed 

outlay for the 10 th Plan 2002 - 2007 is Rs. 300.00 lakh. Rs. 70.00 lakh is allocated for 2006 - 

2007. 

6. RCC FOOTPATH/PEDESTRIAN PAVEMENT: Rs. 30.00 lakh is earmarked for the

Mizoram since 1977 without break. Awareness campaign as well as physical works of 

cleanliness have been done every year. The local authorities, the NGO’s, the Church leaders 

and the students of various levels have been involved in such important drives. It has long 

been felt necessary to make plan provision for such kind of important public activities.

garbage in the towns with clearance and disposal there of with all the required devices such 

as man powers, vehicles and other implements, maintenance of dumping grounds, public 

urinals and many other urban problems of the like nature. A seperate establishment to deal 

with this kind of problems has been set up in Aizawl mostly paid and run from Non-Plan 

provisions. A need has long been felt to expand the Sanitation establishment by creating few 

more posts like the Joint Director (Sanitation) field staff including Sweepers. The reasons is 

that the problems are numerous and the existing level of the one Sanitation Officer, two 

Assistant Sanitation Officers and Supporting Offices Staff and Field Staff could not cope 

with the problems. It is proposed to take up this expansion scheme in the plan side during 

the 10 th Plan. A need is also felt to open new Sanitation Establishments in Lunglei, Champhai 

and Kolasib. However, the details of the requirement for the expansion is shown against 

point No. 16 - Direction & Administrations. Exclusively for management of collection and 

disposal of garbage, daily cleaning of important public places, public urinals, etc. Rs. 200.00

of Mizoram to propagate the gospel of cleanliness in the whole of the state since the last 

part of 2005 – 2006 and Rs. 20.00 lakh was provided during the year for the initial 

establishment. 

Since the Local Administration Department is a Nodal Department, fund provision is

during the 9 th Plan period. Hence, Rs. 158.00 lakh is earmarked during 2006 – 2007. 

17. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPROVEMENT OF URBAN SLUM: Although any part or portion of 

towns in Mizoram has not been identified a Slum area, yet any parts there of, mostly in the 

lower reaches, are obviously in the condition of slums. Link road is a problem, scarcity of 

drinking water is there, electricity is a problem and above all drainage problems have 

assumed proportion that is more serious. With rapid urbanisation during the last 20 years, 

the towns are rapidly expanding and the larger parts of the towns now occupy the lower 

reaches of the hill slopes where drainage problems are very serious due to uncontrolled 

flow of storm water. In short, cluster of dwelling houses are without basic amenities. For 

the 10 th Plan, Rs. 175.00 lakh is proposed for EIUS. During 2006 - 2007, Rs. 28.00 lakh is 

allocated for the schemes.

also urgently required as briefly explained against point No. 12 (Sanitation). For the 10 th 

Plan, Rs. 400.00 lakh is proposed. Rs. 76.17 is earmarked during 2006 - 2007. 

Break - up of 2004 - 2005 will be as follows :-

A. SCHEME-WISE DESCRIPTION OF 2217 [REVENUE] 

1. LAND PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT: 

Preparation of Development Plan/Master Plan: Rapid increase in urban population 

of the state has led to haphazard growth of towns which call for proper planning 

and regulated devleopment. Out of the total 22 nos. of statutory towns in Mizoram 

only half a dozen of the towns have so far been planned. This indicated the need 

for preparation of Master Plan/Development Plan under relevant Act for 

meaningful planned growth and regulated development of these towns. Moreover, 

enforcement of the Mizoram Urban & Regional Development Act 1990 amended in 

1996 & 2004 and Rules 1998 necessitated all the towns in Mizoram to be planned for 

regulated development under the said Act & Rules. It is, however, understood that all 

the towns cannot be covered at a time and hence a provision of Rs. 3.00 lakh is 

envisaged during 2006 - 2007 for preparation of Master Plan/Development Plan viz. - 

Kawnpui, Mamit and Rawpuichhip. 

Besides, Rs. 1.00 lakh is envisaged for preparation of Master Plan of Tlabung. 

2. MACHINERY & EQUIPMENT INCLUDING INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY: 

The rapid urbanisation process in Mizoram coupled with tremendous urban 

problem necessitates Modern Equipments & Scientific Instruments like Computers/ 

Laptop Computers with large format colour Scanner and ploter for degitising Maps, 

Drawings, Designs etc. These unstument are also required for protecting important 

department documents. In order to augment the technical capabilities of officers and 

staffs purchase of above stated machines (tools & plants) is necessary to procure 

during 2006 - 2007. Hence, a token provision of Rs. 6.00 lakh is earmarked for 

purchase of instruments and maintenance of existing instruments. 

3. DIRECTION & ADMINISTRATION (D & A): 

i) Entertainment of Existing Staff / Salary & Creation of essential New Post etc.: 

There are 14 posts which have been maintained and continue to be maintained 

under Plan Scheme. Such posts are —— 

Sl.No. Name of Post No. of Post Scale of pay 

1. Sr. Town & Country Planner 1 Rs. 12000 - 375 - 165 

2. Town & Country Planner 2 Rs. 10000 - 325 - 15200 

3. Asst. Town & Country Planner 4 Rs. 8000 - 275 - 13500 

4. Planning Assistant/JE 3 Rs. 5500 - 175 - 9000 

5. Urban Surveyor I 1 Rs. 5500 - 175 - 9000 

6. Urban Surveyor II 1 Rs. 4500 - 125 - 7000 

7. Draft man II 1 Rs. 4500 - 125 - 7000 

8. U.D.C. 1 Rs. 5000 - 150 - 8000 

TOTAL 14 

Besides, the Town & Country Planning is facing serious problem in the execution of 

important schemes owing to inadequacy of technical man-power. Due to un-planned 

and un-regulated growth there is lot of problems in the urban areas such as natural 

and man-made disaster like landslides, un-scientific land development/cutting, undesigned 

building construction etc. It is, therefore, absolutely necessary to 

strengthen Town & Country Planning Administration by creating additional technical 

post such as Chief Town Planner and Stenographer Grade III to effectively deal with

- 449 - 


land development and building regulation & control activities which come up rapidly 

on unsafe slope and undesigned High rise R.C.C. building construction and other 

urban problems. 

Hence, Rs. 23.40 lakh is earmarked for entertainment of existing staff. 

ii) Medical Treatment: Rs. 2.6 lakh is earmarked for the treatment of existing staff. 

iii) Wages: Due to ban on creation of post the Town & Country Planning Wing is 

facing tremendous problem both in fields and offices thereby resulting delay in 

preparation of Master Plan, Action Plan/Project/Schemes and execution of project 

works. So, a sum of Rs. 5.06 lakh is earmarked for engagement of existing Muster 

Roll employees like LDC/Typist etc. for the year 2006 - 2007. 

iv) Travelling Expenses (T.E.): Apart from the ongoing works under NLCPR and 

IDSMT/UIDSSMT programmes, conduct of physical survey, traffic survey, building 

survey, identification of unsafe buildings and landslide prone areas, socio-economic 

survey, environment survey, etc. of various towns are part and parel of Master Plan 

preparation and implementation. Hence, a provision of Rs. 1.60 lakh i.e. Rs. 0.60 lakh 

for Lunglei and Rs. 1.00 lakh for Aizawl is earmarked during 2006-07 to meet the 

Travelling Expenses and for inspection of building onstruction by the city dwellers 

and supervision of construction works under NLCPR and IDSMT/UIDSSMT which are 

scattered throughout the State and also for survey and investigation of the towns 

and growth centres. 

v) Office Expense (O.E.): A token provision of Rs. 8.50 lakh, of which Rs. 6.50 lakh 

for Aizawl Hq. & Rs. 2.00 lakh for Town & Country Plannng Branch Office Lunglei is 

earmarked to meet expenditure for stationery, furniture, maintenance of tools & 

plants and other miscellaneous articles during 2006 - 2007. 

vi) Rent/Office Accommodation: Since the Office has no building of its own, 

private building is occupied for office on rent. Therefore, to meet the expenditure of 

rent for the whole year 2006 - 2007, Rs. 1.94 lakh is earmarked. 

vii) Maintenance of Vehicle (M.V.): Projects undertaken by the Office are located far 

from Headquarters, hence good condition of Vehicle is absolutely necessary for 

supervision of Planning, land & building regulation & control, Development and 

Construction of Works. Therefore, a provision of Rs. 10.00 lakh, of which Rs. 8.00 

lakh for Aizawl Headquarters & Rs. 2.00 lakh for Town & Country Planning Branch 

Office Lunglei is earmarked for the year 2006 - 2007. 

viii) Workshop/Seminar/Stipend: As per National Norms formulated by the 

Ministry of Urban Development, Government of India, One census/ notified town 

required 4 (four) number of qualified Town Planners, whereas, there are only 4 

(four) number of qualified Town Planners in the State to deal with 22 number of 

Town planning, development/land/building regulation & control, urbanisation 

problems in the State of Mizoram. Therefore, to send students to various Technical 

Institutes outside Mizoram and also to conduct Public Awareness Programme and 

organise Workshop/Seminar, a sum of Rs. 0.30 lakh is earmarked for the year 2006-07. 

ix) Other Charges (OC): A provision of Rs.1.60 lakh is for other excharges, of which 

Rs. 1.00 lakh for Aizawl and Rs. 0.60 lakh for Lunglei.

B. 4217 - IDSMT - CAPITAL SECTION 

- 450 - 


1. Implementation of Approved Master Plan Schemes: To arrest undesirable 

development and construction of buildings and for creation infrastructure & 

management of Towns/City, Master Plans has been prepared and approved by the 

State Government, Such as - Aizawl City (State Capital), Lunglei (Dist. Hq.), Champhai 

(Dist. Hq.), Kolasib (Dist. Hq.), Serchhip (Dist. Hq.), Hnahthial, Thenzawl etc. Hence 

for the implementation/execution of Master Plans schemes such as Landuse/ 

Development regulation & control through Layout Plan/Land Sub-division, Building 

regulation & control, roads, parks, drains, slope stability measures, reconstituted of 

plots etc., a sum of Rs. 11.00 lakh is earmarked. 

2. State Maching Share of C.S.S.: In order to create urban infrastructures and to 

strengthen the economic base of towns and to generate employment opportunities, 

Integrated Action Plan Projects have been prepared and approved by the 

Government of India. Out of 22 census towns, 11 (eleven) priority towns have been 

approved by the Central Government under Centrally Sponsored Schemes for which 

State matching contribution is absolutely required to be provided. In fact, the 

required amount of State matching Share cannot be met in one financial year due to 

meage allocation of plan fund which necessitates provision of State share to be in a 

phase manner. During 2006 - 2007, a provision of Rs. 68.00 lakh is earmarked for 

State matching contribution for the approved Action Plan Projects. 

3. Urban Infrastructure Development Scheme For Small & Medium Towns (UIDSSMT) 

Replace Previous IDSMT Scheme: The Government of India, Ministry of Urban 

Development has proposed to launch Urban Infrastructure Development Schemes for 

Small & Medium Towns (UIDSSMT). The Scheme aims at improvement in urban 

infrastructure in towns other than AIzawl City in a planned manner. This Scheme 

seeing replace IDSMT. The project under UIDSSMT is to be a big project which will 

involve large amount of fund. 

It is, therefore, extremely necessary for the State Govenment to provide more 

fund to match the Central grant so as to avail UIDSSMT scheme for other 21 towns in the 

State.

INFORMATION & PUBLIC RELATIONS 

Introduction: 

With the ushering in of an era of Peace in Mizoram, the role of Information & Public 

Relations has shifted from propaganda machine to publicity for public education of the 

various departmental schemes of the Government an added important role which is known 

as Public Relations has to be taken up in order that public confidence may be earned so that 

all the developmental schemes and plans may be translated into people’s movement. 

The Department is functioning with a Directorate at the Headquarters and Districts 

and Sub-Divisions in their respective areas. There are 6 (six) Rural Information Centers in 

the whole State manned by Technicians Grade III who function in the Centers in rented 

houses. With the rapid progress of development in various fields, it is felt inadequate to 

remit the functioning of the Department from these 6 (six) Rural Centers only as the 

majority of the people in the interior are deprived of their rights to information. 

With the advancement of Technology, it is indispensable for the Department to equip 

itself with modern techniques of communication such as Television / Video, Radio, 

Computers and all kinds of electronic media in order that the people of the State may be 

exposed to the rest of the country and vice-versa thus cementing National Integration to 

bring the people closer to the mainstream of National life. Cultural & Social Exchanges with 

other States must also be carried out. 

For combating the impending Famine due to Bamboo Flowering in the State, it is 

proposed to extend necessary assistance by executing various schemes during the year. 

Therefore, the following items are approved to be taken up during this year and 

Rs.270.00 lakh is earmarked during 2006 - 2007. 

1. DIRECTION & ADMINISTRATION: During this year, we intended to carry out the 

following works as our place of work have to be strengthened and improved. And Rs. 30.00 

lakh is earmarked for these purposes: - 

1. Maintenance of our existing Directorate Building and 

completion of Conference Hall 

- Rs. 10.00 lakh 

2. Construction of Office building-cum-quarter at Mamit - Rs. 10.00 lakh 

3. Fencing of Departmental lands at various Districts - Rs. 10.00 lakh 


2. PRODUCTION OF FILMS: During the 9 th Five Year Plan, a few documentary video 

films are produced mainly for telecast over Doordarshan, New Delhi. Since it has not been 

possible for Doordarshan to make sufficient coverage on Mizoram, it has become necessary

while an Employment Exchange was established at Aizawl in 1958 and Industrial Training 

Institute existed since 1964 while Mizoram was a part of the erstwhile Assam. During the 

period of Union Territory two District Employment Exchanges were established at Lunglei 

and Saiha along with the opening of two Sub-Divisional Employment Exchanges at Champhai 

and Chawngte. After Mizoram attained full statehood, the Sub-Divisional Employment

5. WELFARE OF POOR AND DESTITUTE 

(a) National Social Assistance Programme (N.S.A.P.) :- 

The N.S.A.P. is a Centrally Sponsored Programme to extend 100% Central Assistance 

to the States / U.T.s to provide the benefits under it in accordance with the norms, 

guidelines and conditions laid down by the Central Govt. The N.S.A.P. introduces a National 

Policy for Social Assistance to poor households. The Programme represents a significant 

step towards the fulfillment of the Directive Principles in Article 41 and 42 of the 

Constitution recognizing the concurrent responsibility of the Central and State Govt. in the 

matter. 

The N.S.A.P. Scheme includes — 

(i) National Old Age Pension Scheme (N.O.A.P.S.) 

(ii) National Family Benefit Scheme (N.F.B.S.) 

(i) National Old Age Pension Scheme (N.O.A.P.S.) : 

Beneficiaries under the State Plan were given Old Age Pension @ Rs. 100/- per month 

in the previous years. Those beneficiaries under the State Plan are now transferred to 

NOAPS due to paucity of fund under the State Plan. As the rate of Government of India (i.e. 

Rs. 75/- per month per head) is short of Rs. 25/- it was felt necessary to enhance the rate by 

Rs. 25/- per month per head so as to bring the rate to Rs. 100/- per month as was given to 

the beneficiaries under State Plan during 2001-2002. As mentioned earlier, the Central 

Government grants only Rs. 75/- per month per beneficiary and the State Govt. has to bear 

Rs. 25/- per month per head in order to bring the pension amount to Rs.100/- per month. 

From the year 2002-03, due to insufficient fund, the State’s contribution towards Old Age 

Pension had been stopped but the beneficiaries are still paid Rs. 100/- per month per 

beneficiary out of Central fund which is in violation to the Central norm, i.e. Rs. 75/- per 

month per beneficiary throughout the country. 

It is, therefore, decided to implement the scheme as per Central norm from 2006-07. 

Besides, the existing beneficiaries i.e. 10525, additional beneficiaries numbering 10275 

persons could be accommodated. The State Government, therefore, needs to contribute fund 

amounting to Rs. 62.40 lakh as State’s Share (i.e. 20800×25×12) to enable the Department to 

implement the Scheme as per Central norms. 

(ii) National Family Benefit Scheme (N.F.B.S.): 

Under this Scheme the family of a household below the poverty line shall get an 

assistance of Rs. 10,000/- on the death of its primary breadwinner whose age is between 

18yrs. and 65 yrs. During the previous year, 400 persons were given this benefit and it is 

approved to continue the scheme during 2006-2007. 208 persons are approved to be given 

this benefit during 2006-2007 and an amount of Rs. 20.80 lakh is approved for the scheme. 

Details of financial approval are as follows: - 

Total outlay for Annual Plan 2006-07 in respect of N.S.A.P. - Rs. 208.00 lakh 

N.O.A.P. 

No. of existing beneficiaries - 10525 × 75 × 12 - Rs. 94,72,500.00

State Share for existing beneficiaries under NOAP - 10525 × 25 × 12 - Rs. 31,57,500.00

Total requirement to be contributed by the State - Rs. 62,40,000.00

6. PROHIBITION 

(a) De-Addiction Centre / Aftercare Centre :-
