INTRODUCTION :
The complete strategy for the XI th Plan has emerged from an extensive process of
survey and a bottom up grass root level study of the agricultural status in the state.
Regional backwardness is the main issue of concern in Mizoram. Lack of adequate rural
infrastructure, sectoral investment and research backup facilities are the main bottleneck of
sustainable and accelerated growth of agriculture sector. By diversification of agriculture
farming, private corporate investment through contract farming system is expected to
accelerate the rural economy by expanding the rural –urban trade for domestic processing
and promoting exports. The approach plan is first step in this process by suggesting broad
objectives, targets and the associated challenges and implication for policy of Plan period.
An ambition of doubling the incomes of the average farmers of Mizoram in less than five
years with a commitment to reduce poverty to less than 10% in the same period with a
target growth rate of GDP at around 4% would ensure that the projected growth is broader
base than in the past. The approach plan suggests that this is feasible but it cannot be
achieved without special effort, especially if the growth is to be more inclusive. Therefore,
the main point of focus identified for potential growth of agriculture sector in Mizoram to
achieve the milestone of XI th Plan target are Infrastructure development coupled with the
sustainable economic activities for the rural poor. The strategy for Infrastructure
development includes an additional increase of. 2000 ha. WRC areas by Land
development, 2000 ha. of Terraces for Settlement of Jhumia families, Construction of 250
km and maintenance of existing Potential Area Connectivity roads, Establishment and
maintenance of laboratories and farm etc. Under Economic activities intensified
cultivation of maize, soyabean, pulses, oilseeds, rice and sugarcane by pit digging and
micro irrigation system on a large scale will be taken up as a settlement of jhummia
families, Production and distribution of certified seeds through seed village
programme/registered growers, Introduction of crop insurance scheme, Subsidy on farm
inputs like machineries & implements, fertilizers, chemicals etc. Alongside this the
development of cash crop especially Red Oil Palm has been given due focus and to realize
this an extensive action plan through the PPP and contractual farming mode has been
chalked out which is envisage to cover more than 60,000 Ha of Agro-climatically suitable
and identified land mainly jhumias which will cut across the subsequent Five Year Plan.
As for Research back up, revitalization of extension services through ATMA scheme will
be given due importance.
The total budget size of Rs.21974.00 Lakhs for XI Plan, out of which an
annual plan for 2007-2008 amount to Rs.3428.00 Lakhs has been projected.
Therefore, to accelerate the process of development for this under developed
agrarian economy of Mizoram an ambitious, challenging and target oriented vision for
achieving 4% GDP Growth has been formulated for the Eleventh Plan.

AN APPROACH TO THE ELEVENTH FIVE YEAR PLAN UNDER AGRICULTURE.
The Mizoram ecosystem is primarily mountainous which can broadly be
classified as fragile. The ecosystems and the traditional primary production systems are
under stress due to several causes such as population growth, over use of natural resources
and lack of appropriate development technologies. The high rainfall in the areas combined
with deforestation leads to high level of erosion, land degradation and siltation.
Mizoram is a typical example of many of the worlds poorest areas which
are small, mountainous landlocked state. These are characterized by diversity of a micro-
environment in which flat areas and terraces are under intense land use. Horticultural and
Plantation Crops are most often an alternative to the annual field crops. The major
constraints are fragile, steep slope and related soil loss, deforestation and limited access to
market and infrastructure
Government of Mizoram endorsed the draft approach to 11 th Five year Plan
especially in Agricultural Sector. The main strategies for accelerating Agricultural growth
during Eleventh Five Year in Mizoram for sustainable development as well as self
sufficiency in food grains will be as under:
1. Accelerating Agricultural Growth :
Accelerating GDP growth in Agriculture sector to around 4% is a great
challenge for the economy as a whole. However, in spite of the plethora of hurdles that is
anticipated in achieving this target. The following action plans which gives due
cognizance to the demand-supply issues will give an overview of the strategy attempted to
achieve the goals.
2. The Demand gap. :
The total population of Mizoram is 8,88,573 as per 2001 census with the
total decadal growth rate of 29.18%. As per the decadal growth rate, it is estimated that
the total population of Mizoram will reach approximately 11, 47,858, during the eleventh
plan period. To meet the minimum food requirements of the projected population of the
state, at least 1,00,000 MT of rice has to be produced annually @ 6.75 kg per capita
consumption per month ( based on NSS 55 th Round, July 1999-June 2000 ).
Regional backwardness is the main issue of concern. Lack of adequate rural
infrastructure, sectoral investment and Research back up is the main bottleneck for the
sustainable and accelerate growth of Agricultural Sector in Mizoram. As such, larger
investment of private sector through contract farming will accelerate the rural economy by
expanding rural-rural trade for strengthening support to Agricultural diversification for
domestic processing and promoting exports. This strategies will enhance accelerate
Agriculture growth in Mizoram over time.
3. Addressing the Supply issue:
Following steps will be initiated to strengthen Foodgrain Production in
order to attain food security during the eleventh five year plan.
i). Dissemination of modern technology applicable to small holding in hilly
terrain.
ii). Conversion of Jhum land area into permanently cultivated tracts.
iii). Increasing area under HYV of rice, maize, oilseeds, pulses.
iv). Increasing double-cropped area through multiple cropping.

DRAFT 11 TH - 3 -
FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT (CROP HUSBANDRY)
v). Adoption of short duration HYV of rice to fit into the double/multiple
cropping cycle.
vi). Popularization of balanced and integrated use of fertilizers. High yielding
seeds, need based plant protection measures, and Integrated Pest
Management (IPM).
vii). Making available more number of farm machineries to the farmers at
subsidized rates (Like Tractor, Power Tiller etc. including water ppumps
and micro irrigation needs).
viii). Promotion of supplementing environmentally sound micro-enterprises to
agricultural activities like cultivation of medicinal and Aromatic plants,
dairy farming, piggery, poultry farming, apiary and pisiculture through
livelihood support system (Crop diversification).
ix). Promotion of vermi-composting, bio-pesticides and compost manure
production at local level.
x). Development of low cost high volume rainwater harvesting structures for
domestic use and life saving irrigation, Bio-filtration and water recycling
(Micro-Irrigation System).
These strategies would be achieved through :
i). Jhum area of 30,000 Ha will be treated during the eleventh five year plan
under Control of Shifting Cultivation ( WDPSCA)
ii). An additional area of 5,000 Ha fresh land will be developed through
machineries and will be put under Wet Rice cultivation and 3000 Ha of
jhum area will be converted into Terraces cultivation under settlement of
jhumia families .
iii). 2,00,000 nos of Soil Health card will be issued to the farmers
iv). Construction of 1000 KM length of Potential Area Connectivity/road for
transportation of Agriculture produces and inputs and maintenance of 1500
KM existing Potential Area Connectivity
v). Judicious use of fertilizers, Bio- fertilizers and other Organic manures.
vi). Promotion of farm mechanization through subsidy on farm machineries.
vii). Development of Water Harvesting Structures and judicious use of irrigation
water through drip/micro sprinkler irrigation system.
viii). Distribution of quality and HYV seeds through Seed Village programme /
Registered Growers
ix). Mission Mode approach will be encouraged, all resources from Plan Fund
and Macro-Management Mode of Agriculture (CSS) will be converged
with the objective of achieving concerted and accelerated growth in
Agriculture sector.
x). Infrastructures like cold storage, processing plant, market facilities etc, will
be created for value addition and generating regular incomes for the
farming community.

xi). Financial Institution/Banks shall be aggressively impress upon to provide
services at the door steps or at least at the village level to help the farmers
in availing of various facilities available with the banks. A fresh impetus
to Agriculture as a business will be propagated with the pro active role of
the Banks in treating Agriculture business as a “Viable Business
Proposition” and not a mere poverty alleviation programme.
xii). Re allocation of agriculture land such as the potential land for
xiii).
Agriculture within the Riverine Reserve Forest be identified and
demarcated for the purpose of de-reservation and at the same time identify
alternate land in the Upper slope and ridges as a substitute within the same
jurisdiction. This will enable the farmers to take up intensive cultivation in
the river valley as a permanent settlement free from reservation of their land
for any purpose other than Agriculture.
A separate legislation to regulate and promote contract farming
arrangements to promote alternative marketing system, contract farming,
direct marketing and farmers market with growing quality, etc. will be
introduced. This would help in extension of E-trading, direct purchasing,
export, etc. in the State.
xiv). The main work force under agriculture sectors are mainly inhabited in the
rural areas. 50.5% of the total population in the state is still in the rural
areas, sustain their livelihood through farming, which is mere remunerative.
It is just livelihood support systems. To uplift the standard of living and
Generate Employment Opportunities of the rural people, Diversification of
Crops, Organic Farming and Contract Farming through Public Private
Partnership (PPP) will be initiated.

The farming practices in all parts of the country are sub optimal. Optimum and balance use
of fertilizer either organic or inorganic is a must for achievement of accelerated growth in
Agricultural Sector during XI Plan. a judicious use of fertilizers is determine by the laboratory as
well.Mizoram is one of the Organic States in the country, the consumption of Agricultural
chemicals for crop production is negligible, at the same time the consumption of organic manures,
and bio agents etc. have been increased. The in-balanced use of chemical fertilizers decreases the
productivity of soils.
Emphasis will be given on cultivation of green manuring crops like Dhaincha, Sunhemp,
Cowpea etc, in order to improve the fertility status of the newly developed WRC. Application and
incorporation of Organic manures and strengthening of the existing Bio-fertilizer Production Unit,
Soil Testing laboratory Unit are proposed. This would ensure balanced and integrated use of
fertilizers resulting in adoption of integrated nutrient management for sustains Agriculture.

AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT (MIP)
MIZORAM INTODELHNA PROGRAMME (MIP)
Mizoram, a hill state in the strategic North East, predominantly inhabited by
tribal population, is still economically far behind the rest of the country despite its abundant
natural resources. Mizoram is basically an agrarian economy characterized by traditional
practice of shifting hill farming (jhum) which is becoming less productive due to the shrinking
jhum cycle. The persistence of this primitive and destructive method tend to cause soil
erosion and forest regression with adverse effect on environment and ecology. Earlier
attempts at progressively weaning away the jhumia families to permanent system of
cultivation or other means of livelihood has not yielded the desired results.
The Mizoram Intodelhna Programme (MIP) attempts at addressing the
problems as it obtains today and seeks to plug the gaps that are perceived to be the cause of
failure of settling the jhumias communities. These probable causes of failures are more or less
eliminated in Mizoram Intodelhna Programme (MIP). It is expected that the Mizoram
Intodelhna Programme (MIP) would serve the people better in achieving its objectives of
alleviating their problems.
The present Government accords its highest priority in solving the critical
issues of backwardness, unemployment particularly in rural areas, harnessing available local
resources and generating income and employment amongst the rural poor. Thus, the
Government of Mizoram in their endeavour for a major breakthrough in the developmental
process has considered it necessary to work-out a developmental strategy aiming at efficient
exploitation of local resources, increasing productivity and generating employment
particularly amongst the rural poor. Accordingly a Task Force was constituted to study the
whole gamut of the causes of the rural poverty, the shortcomings that plagued similar
schemes previously launched, and formulate a scheme for development of the rural economy
at the grassroots. The said Task Force composed of experts from different discipline,
progressive farmers, experts and prominent citizens prepared a scheme called Mizoram
Intodelhna Programme (A project for Self Sufficiency of the Rural poor in Mizoram).
The main purpose of this project is 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, is aimed at minimizing the undesirable
consequences of Shifting Cultivation such as destruction of forest, removal of top soils,
landslides and degradation of land. The farmers will to adopt a more profitable, sustainable,
permanent system of farming through Agro-Horticulture and Soil Conservation methods.
AN APPROACH TO THE 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN
UNDER MIZORAM INTODELHNA PROGRAMME
Agriculture in Mizoram has remained primitive due to the practice of jhuming
or shifting cultivation. For various reasons this method of cultivation has not undergone
significant changes till date. The main reasons attributed to the persistence of the old farming
practices are the lack of suitable land for wet rice cultivation (WRC), lack of adequate water,
ignorance and mostly lack of adequate resources. Even though shifting cultivation is
destructive for environment, back-breaking and unremunerative for the cultivators, the vast
majority of rural and semi-urban householders have to resort to this primitive method of
cultivation for want of any alternative farming system or occupation. Rice is the staple food of
the people and the paddy harvested from jhums as a whole, is still much more than that
harvested from WRC. These cultivators are eagerly looking forward to the day when they will
be emancipated from this jhum cultivation. The mountainous country with its steep slopes and

- 20 -
DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT (MIP)
narrow valleys and a few level areas led to this tradition of method in cultivation. This
practice, which leads to severe soil erosion (as well as environmental damage), eventually
results in reduced yields, abandonment of the plots and moving on to other plots. The
Mizoram Government is seized of the implications and disadvantages of the method and
proposed to implement a programme that will lead to permanent cultivation of the land by a
transition to terrace farming by construction of terraces on the moderate slopes.
:
The main aims and objectives of Mizoram Intodelhna Programme (MIP) are as follows
1. To conserve, upgrade and utilise land, water, plants, animals and human resources in
an integrated manner to meet the growing demands of cereals, pulses, oilseeds, and
cash/commercial crops.
2. To generate massive employment during project period and regular employment after
project period for Small and Marginal Farmers.
3. To improve environment, restore ecological balance and promote Agril. Production
through Scientific On-farm Land Development and Terraces.
4. To promote development of Water Resources for domestic use as well as Small Scale
irrigation by constructing Rain Water Harvesting Dams.
5. To promote cultivation of commercial crops like Oil Palm, Passion fruit, Jatropha and
Patchouli etc. and create market linkages for the produce.
6. To promote marketing support system, create networking of collection centres etc..
Thus, the ultimate objectives of the project is to sustain its production and
productivity in Agriculture and allied Sectors, improve the standard of living of poor farmers
and endeavour for restoration of ecological balance.

AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT (MIP)
A. SCHEME PROPOSED UNDER MIZORAM INTODELHNA PROGRAMME
Component-I
State Matching Share for Oil Palm (ISOPOM)
Oil Palm development scheme under ISOPOM is launched in Mizoram for self
sufficiency in edible oil, to motivate farmers to switch over from jhum cultivation to
permanent settlement and to create income generation opportunities for small and marginal
farmers. State Matching Share for Oil Palm under Integrated Scheme of Oil Seeds, Pulses, Oil
palm and Maize (ISOPOM) is a Centrally Sponsored Scheme on 75:25 sharing basis between
Government of India and Government of Mizoram. The Scheme is expected to generate a
self sustain economy with the help of Central Government and this scheme will be a
development model for Mizoram.
Component-II
Management Component
Mizoram Intodelhna Programme (MIP) envisages investment of fund in various sectors
of the economy to fill in the shortcomings and gaps of the plan allocation for a major
boast to the farming economy covering the whole state. Various developmental schemes are
contained in the programme which require technocrats and staff for supervision and
monitoring of works including office maintenance.
Component-III
Development of Oil Palm Cultivation:
Oil Palm development scheme under ISOPOM is launched in Mizoram for self
sufficiency in edible oil, to motivate farmers to switch over from jhum cultivation to
permanent settlement and to create income generation opportunities for small and marginal
farmers. Godrej Agrovet Ltd. and Food, Fats Fertilizers Ltd. agreed to buy the oil palm
bunch from Mizoram at a reasonable price .The various provisions made under Oil Palm
Development which is mainly to plug the gaps in resources are -1).Cost of Planting materials
@ Rs 30/-per seedlings 2) Transportation charges of seedlings 3) Potential Connectivity for
Oil Palm cultivation areas @ Rs 3.00 lakh per Km. 4) Creation of Irrigation- (a) Community
Water Tank @ Rs 1.00 lakh (b) Water Harvesting Structure @ Rs 0.5 lakh (c) Drainage line
treatment @ Rs 8350/-per 100 mt, 5) Construction of Table top/halfmoon terraces for
plantation of oil palm @ Rs 0.3 lakh per ha. .
Component-IV
Development of Passion Fruit
Passion Fruit, is a choice crop of the tropical and sub-tropical belts and yields a
sprightly juice with a sweet fragrance rich in Vitamin A. As Mizoram has the ideal climatic
condition it has performed exceptionally well in the higher elevation of the state, especially
after the Technology Mission (TM) intervention. This is extremely conducive for increasing
the area under Passion fruit which will not only uplift the economy of the poor farmers but
will also help in adequate supply of raw materials to the Juice Extraction Plant at
Chhingchhip. Besides the above, this crop is being given due importance in the year of
Mautam (Bamboo flowering) as an alternate crop choice with the anticipation that the pergola
technology of cultivation would be less susceptible to rodent damage.

Component-V
Development of Turmeric
Turmeric is an important crop with many uses in drug and cosmetic industries
besides being used for culinary purposes. It is widely used as a medicinal plant for external
application and taken internally as a curative and stimulant. So this crop having high
marketability and demand with manifold uses is being taken up in a big way under MIP
through the Horticulture Department. Akin to the objective of selecting Passion fruit, Turmeric
too has been opted for as an alternate crop. Since it is a known fact that they are relatively less
susceptible to damage by rodents – that are expected to attack other standing crops.
Component-VI
Development of Patchouli Cultivation :
Patchouli is a herbaceous plant native to South East Asia. The leaves yield
Patchouli Oil which is of great importance in the perfume industry. The MIP have initiated
cultivation of Patchouli because of its market assurrance and high price and perhaps more
importantly after a successful pilot demonstration of the crop during 2005-2006.
Component-VII
Development of Jatropha Cultivation :
MIP in its best effort to diversify agriculture to bring socio-economic
transformation especially in rural areas of the state is aware of the need to tow the line of
growth with clean development mechanism. The importance is therefore given to the call of
the National Bio fuel mission by Government of India. With the above in view and with the
objective of securing the energy security environmental friendly and economic benefits of
green fuel development, MIP has placed due thrust to the extensive propagation of Jatropha
cultivation. Moreover, the program is expected to provide continuous direct and indirect
employment opportunities to the rural poor. Vast area and lands besides the cultivable area
would be utilised for Jatropha plantation due to its wide adaptability features which would
help in utilizing the available vacant lands. Also Jatropha could replace existing nonrenumerative
crops with its higher productivity.
Component-VIII
Development of Maize and Soyabean:
Maize is an important cereal, over 85% of its production in India is consumed
directly as food in various forms. Since maize is a short duration-crop, it conveniently fits into
a wide range of crop rotations. Green maize plants acts as succulent fodder crop. It is also
widely used in animal feed particularly as poultry feed.
Soyabean treated as both oilseed and pulse crop is a crop with high percentage
of protein content (40 %) and oil (20 %) content in the seed. Many different products can be
made out of Soyabean, besides it being a widely acclaimed health food. Soyabean is also
widely used in animal feed as it forms an important ingredient in production of animal feed.
Thus Maize and Soyabean are two important crops which is required for preparation of animal
feed in the state. As the production of Maize and Soyabean is not adequate in the state, the
present production level is grossly insufficient to feed the two newly commissioned animal
feed plant in the state viz. under PIGFED, ITI Veng, Aizawl with a production of 20-30 qtl.
per day requiring 20 qtls of Maize/ day and 7 qtls of Soyabean/day and Animal Feed Plant
(MODAFER) under Department of AH & Vety with a capacity of 50 ton/day and requiring 50
qtls. maize/day and 10 qtls. soyabean/day. To meet the requirement of these two Animal feed

AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT (MIP)
plants, MIP has embarked on a program to increase the area and production of these two crops
in the state. This project therefore constitutes one of the core thrust area for MIP.
Component-IX
Sericulture Development
Sericulture can be considered as one of the trades to effectively and
systematically create sustainable permanent occupation to the rural poors, enhance selfemployment
avenues at large to uplift the rural economy of the state. The Sericulture
development program has particularly performed very satisfactorily in the State, and has
provided for sustained source of income to many farmers who have opted for this trade. The
Government has flagged this program as one of the effective option for poverty alleviation and
thus find an important place in MIP programming.
Component-X
Marketing Development.
Marketing of Agriculture produces is a priority component of MIP. A
marketing Sub committee is in place to conduct search and research of marketing avenues to
access remunerative markets. Moreover, MIP is also prepared in emergencies to intervene in
market operation to ensure that farmers get remunerative prices for the produces. Thus while
their will be requirement of funds for market feasibility study, networking of collection
centres, post harvest management, there is also a need to provide for funds for direct
intervention by way of creating a revolving funds. Which will utilized for immediate payment
to the farmers for the produces like passion fruit etc. which will stand replenished after the
sale/disposed to the end buyers. This market support arrangement will go a long way to help
the farmers who are otherwise vulnerable to distress sale of their produces as has been
experienced in the past.
Component-XI
Development of Sugarcane
Sugarcane, the main source of sugar in the country is widely grown in the state
of Mizoram. The department of Agriculture is taking up Organic Sugarcane development in a
major way and MIP aims at filling up the gaps under NCA. The requirement of fund for
sugarcane development is proposed at Rs.130.00 lakh for the year 2007-2008 and Rs.390.00
lakh for the 11 th Five Year Plan.
Component -XII
Development of Potato
Potato, continues to have a special place and value as food, and forms an
important part of the daily palate in almost all the houses in the country, North Eastern States
is no exception. This crop is very well suited to the climatic conditions of the state. It is
particularly, a prefered crop for multi-Cropping practice to which the farming communities
have been encouraged to practice.

Hydrogers/hydrams
Mizoram receives an abundant rainfall from the month of May – November
while the months of January to April and December is dry and there is an acute shortage of
water during these period. The state can boast of irrigation channels/rivulets with perenials
source of water. The drops of water along these channels and the water from rivulets can be
utilised as a good source of irrigation to the needy cultivators during the dry months.
Component XIV
Construction of Project Area Connectivity (Link Road)
Department of Agriculture and Horticulture have launched various schemes for
production programmes for oilseeds, fruits and vegetables, etc. To provide better mobility of
inputs and farm produces it is very important to construct proper road connectivity
infrastructure. MIP also has taken up additional programmes for large scale production of
Agri-Horti produces which require 592.67 km of road connectivity with an estimated cost of
Rs.348.00.
Component XV
Integrated Land Development
Goverment of Mizoram launched scheme for increasing production of various crops
through on-farm land development and terraces for the extension of area for cultivation of
oilpalms, aromatic plants, fruits and vegetables. To increase their productivity, proper land
development is highly essential.
Increase in arable land results in increase in food grain production. Under On farm
development for WRC are various components viz.Leveling, Bunding, Reshaping, Drainage
etc. and construction of terraces at various places is proposed.

The Directorate of Agriculture (Research & Education) was bifurcated from Agriculture
Department during 2002 with a responsibilities to transfer of improved Agriculture technology
to the farmers by conducting adaptive research, demonstration and training in different subject
of agricultural programme.
The effort of the Department of Agriculture (R&E) is concentrated in looking after a
basic agriculture and allied training center established under the name of Integrated Training
Center under which inservice and preservice candidates were trained in a two year training
course.
Production of seeds and demonstration of new farming system were other areas of
thrust taken up by the Department. But these activities were hampered by lack of Infrastructure
particularly in the field of production of certified seeds. The activity is taken up in two
departmental farms Situated at Chemphai and Rotlang. Good field demonstrations lead to
higher adoption of demonstrated practices by the farmers as they develop confidence amongst
them in the practices demonstrated. Field demonstrations provided and effective learning
situation as farmers “ See the crop themselves “, interact with the scientists and extension
workers in the fields “ and “ gets doubts clarified then and there itself. Therefore, Field
Demonstrations are very important tools of educating the farmers in a drive for attaining self
sufficiency in food production. During 11 th Five Year Plan it is proposed to introduce
Demonstration under Agril Research and Education as a new scheme.
Under the department there are two functioning KVKs under Kolasib and Lunglei
Districts . During 2005-2006, ICAR sanctioned five new KVKs under Lawngtlai, Saiha,
Serchhip, Champhai and Mamit Districts. The same will be maintained during 2007-2012.
At present the Department is giving stipend and book grant B.Sc Agri. Under different

Demonstration in farmers’ field is a long term educational activity conducted in a
systematic manner on farmers fields to show worth of a new practice/technology “ Seeing is
believing “ is the basic philosophy of field demonstrations. Only proven technologies are
therefore, selected for filed demonstration. Field Demonstrations educate farmers through
results obtained in terms of varieties resistance to diseases and pest, quality of the grains, and
overall higher yields. In addition it also educates the farmers in terms of inputs-output ratio and
economic gains in terms of net returns. Basically, there are two types of field demonstration:
i) Single practice demonstration : A single Practice Demonstration aims at
providing the worth of a single practice such as effects of balance fertilizers in rice crop, higher
yields from the newly released varieties of hybrid maize, effect of irrigation at crown root
initiation stage of wheat , effect of new pesticide on fruit borer in gram etc.
ii) Composite demonstration : A Composite Demonstration is a combination of
field based result demonstrations and achain of skill oriented method demonstrations. A long
sequential method demonstrations (Composite Demonstration) aim at demonstrating the
superiority of package of practices in growing a field crops. Here the effect of one practice
harnessing the effect of other practices is also demonstrated and studied. For example,
combined effect of irrigation and fertilizer application on grain yield and quality of a newly
released mustard variety may be demonstrated as a composite demonstration.
AGRICULTURE RESEARCH & EDUCATION
The Scheme has been implemented by the Department for quite a long time and the
impact of the Scheme has been very encouraging . This scheme is being implemented under
the following sub-head.
Adaptive Research : One of the goal in Agriculture is higher and sustainable
production through diversified farming. In order to achieve this, a multi-disciplinary approach
to the application of technology in the development of agriculture is necessary. Therefore,
ICAR has been entrusted to conduct fundamental and applied research in the field of

AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT (RESEARCH & EDUCATION)
agriculture and allied sector . Adaptive research is done by the state department of agriculture
which have adequate resources and wide jurisdiction through out the Agro-climatic region of
the State. Since, the main objective of the state Government of Mizoram is to reach selfsufficiency
in food, it is necessary to conduct different adaptive research and demonstration
through KVK for farmers education and also for transfer of technology to the farmers.
Agriculture Education : Education under agriculture broadly all the farmers,
education in the subject from the school to university level and also informal and non-formal
education for those who are involved in agriculture in various ways. So far, only one centre has
been established to give training to in–service and pre-service candidate in respect of
agriculture and allied subjects. There is a need to strengthen the Institution to provide training
in agriculture not only to in-service and pre-service candidate but also to school drop-outs. This
will help in crop production programme as the trained personal will do for agriculture
production programme. It is further proposed to continue farmers training and other
programme through KVKs during 11 th plan period.

DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
SOIL & WATER CONSERVATION DEPARTMENT
SOIL & WATER CONSERVATION
1.0 Background introduction to 11 th Five Year Plan (2007-2012) and Annual Plan
(2007-2008) :
Land Resource Conservation and Development are crucial for sustained
agricultural Production, water resources enhancement, flood and soil erosion
management and harnessing hydropower potential at the basin. Land and water constitute
the important resource base to meet the essential requirements of society such as food,
fodder, fibre, fuel, timber etc. Land degradation poses a severe challenge to life of
reservoirs, perennial streams and agricultural productivity in the State. Reservoirs of
hydropower, drinking water supply and irrigation potentials are threatened by heavy
siltation due to uncontrolled land degradation and improper land use. Heavy run off with
high siltation annually results in uncontrollable flood in the neighbouring Assam Plains.
The 11 th Plan will focus main thrust on conservation of rainwater through
catchment Area and drainage lines treatments in the micro-watersheds to mitigate flood
and siltation, enhance ground water storage and recharge by a series of check dams. The
thrust will also be on promoting in-situ moisture conservation by eco-friendly agricultural
production systems like terracing, water harvesting structures and appropriate
vegetation/cash crops of economic value. Peoples involvement in the planning, execution
and employment generation will be given importance in the 11 th Plan. Erosion Control in
current Jhum lands will also be a priority scheme in the 11 th Plan.
The 11 th Plan endeavours to achieve the twin objectives of sustainable production
of biomass and restoration of ecological balance in the State. It focuses on :-
(a) Conservation, upgradation and utilization of land, Water, Plant, Animal and
human resources in a harmonious and integrated manner.
(b) Prevention of land degradation by adoption of a multi-disciplinary
integrated approach involving Agronomy, Forestry and Engineering
disciplines in the treated areas.
(c) Improvement of production environments and restoration of ecological
balance through scientific management of land and water.
(d) Employment generation during the project and regular employment after the
project/scheme completion to rural people.
Thus, the ultimate objective of this Plan is to develop the natural resourcebase,
sustain its productivity, improve the standard of living of rural
farmers, and endeavour for restoration of ecological balance.

DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
SOIL & WATER CONSERVATION DEPARTMENT
The Draft Plan outlay on 11 th Five Year Plan is Rs. 2078.00 lakhs and
Annual Plan for 2007-08 is Rs. 440.00 lakhs.
Scheme wise Description :-
1. Direction & Administration : Under this, all contingent expenditures including
salary under plan posts are met as a normal scheme. Monitoring & Evaluation, Planning
Cell, Information and Publicity, Engineering Cell and Research, Education & Training
Institute (RETI) will be under this scheme in 11 th Plan. Rs,697.00 lakhs and Rs112.80
lakhs are proposed for 11 th Plan and Annual Plan 2007-2008
2. Hillside Terracing :- Intensive Terracing for Hill Side cultivation/plantation is
the most effective way of retaining soil particles and debris, checking and detaining
surface run-off, and enhancing deep percolation for ground water storage and minimize
discharge to down streams/rivers. This programme is unavoidable wherever Agri. based
activities are intensified. It is also a programme for flood moderation, increasing ground
water resources and water pollution control. This is the continuing scheme from 10 th Plan
of Run-off Retarding Scheme. Rs. 320.00 lakhs and Rs. 56.00 lakhs for 2720 Ha and
476 Ha respectively for 11 th Plan and Annual Plan 2007-08 are proposed.
3. Mechanical Conservation by Engineering works : Flooding and erosion are
gaining alarming importance in the low lying areas. The source of this hazardous event is
in the hilly places. Considering the ever increasing flood and silt deposits with
complicated problems, drastic conservation measures on agriculturally potential lands
alone are far from satisfactory but intensive treatments by series of silt detention
structures along the rivers ,streams and their tributaries in the hills are top priority to
moderate flood, prevent river bank scouring, detain run-off water and enhance ground
water storage for use in the lean season. The catchment are treatment will be
complimented with live vegetative conservation plantation. This is the scheme of 10 th
Plan to be continued in 11 th Plan on a wider scale. Rs. 110.00 lakhs and Rs. 20.00 lakhs
are proposed for 1100 Nos. and 200 Nos. of structures respectively for 11 th plan and
Annual Plan 2007-2008.
4. Erosion Control in Jhumland : This is the new scheme for 11 th Plan. Shifting
cultivation is still in practice today. Until and unless viable alternative, easily adoptable
and conveniently suitable culturally to the rural people are found, this practice is likely to
continue for years ahead. As per a reliable estimate, around 30,000 – 40,000 ha. is put
under shifting cultivation every year till today. Soil erosion under shifting cultivation can
be well over 50 tonnes/ha/year. This is much much higher than normally permissible
limit of around 4 tons/ha/year. Considering such enormous loss of soil and plant nutrients
every year, it is just not possible to sit idle and watch the situation from a distance.
Therefore, the Department proposes a comprehensive Scheme for Controlling soil
erosion in jhum lands by logwood bunding and life hedges wherever convenient soon
after jhum burning to minimize heavy Soil loss and enhance production from jhuming.
Rs. 201.00 lakhs and Rs. 55.00 lakhs are proposed for 6700 Ha and 1833 ha respectively
in 11 th Plan & Annual Plan 2007-2008.

SOIL & WATER CONSERVATION DEPARTMENT
5. Watershed Survey & Management : Project preparation, engagement of
Consultancy firm for survey, investigation, pre-preparation of projects and State
matching share of CSS are placed under this head of Expenditure. Rs. 40.00 lakhs and
Rs, 15.00 lakhs are proposed for 11 th Plan and Annual Plan 2007-2008 respectively.
6. Water Resources Conservation & Development : In the midst of abundant
water resources during monsoon season and extreme scarcity of the same in the lean
season even for drinking purposes, water is the biggest constraint in bio-mass production
in the State. This clearly indicates gross neglect in scientific management of water
resources for food production and public health sector. The gap between this extremities
can be effectively bridged by both intensive and extensive programme of rain water
harvesting structures for crop production, animal and human betterment with micro
irrigation on individual basis. Due to peculiar nature of the terrain, water development on
community basis are not feasible in most of the cases, hence, individual basis is
necessary. This is also a continuing scheme from 10 th Plan and a comprehensive scheme
is needed in the 11 th Plan. Rs. 230.00 lakhs and Rs. 68.00 lakhs are proposed for 1150
Nos and 340 Nos Water Harvesting Tanks/Ponds respectively for 11 th Plan and Annual
Plan 2007-2008.
7. Conservation Plantation : Good bio-mass ground cover maintains ecological
balance, promotes infiltration and percolation of surface run-off, enhances ground water
storage and minimizes soil loss. It is eco friendly measure of conservation and can be
effectively carried out in combination with mechanical conservation measures for village
water sources, river and stream catchment feeding Agri. lands and hydro power stations.
Cash crops can be conveniently used as vegetative cover under this scheme for economic
gain. Cash Crops under rural area development, tree plantation and nursery schemes in
10 th Plan will be combined and continued as CONSERVATION PLANTATION in the
11 th Plan. Rs, 290.00 lakhs and Rs, 80.00 lakhs are proposed for 11 th Plan and Annual
Plan 2007-08 respectively.
8. Other Expenditures : Expenditure on construction and maintenance of
Buildings, Approach Road, Inputs and Risk Management are placed under this head of
expenditure. Rs. 190.00 lakhs and Rs33.20 lakhs are proposed for 11 th Plan and Annual
Plan 2007-2008 respectively.
9. Central Sponsored Scheme/Other Source of Funding : More number of
Central Sponsored Schemes and other sources of funding will be explored during the 11 th
Plan. The following schemes are proposed to be implemented as :
Singla, Tlawng & Langkaih RVP/FPR. This has been implemented since
10 th Five Year Plan and will be a continuing scheme in the 11 th Plan. During 10 th Plan,
Rs. 991.22 lakhs had been approved and the anticipated expenditure during 10 th Plan is
Rs. 831.07 lakhs. Rs. 985.81 lakhs and Rs. 495.59 lakhs are proposed for 11 th Plan and
Annual Plan 2007-2008 respectively.
Proposals are also made for Rubber, Coffee and Terracing with Potato
cultivation (NEC); WDPSCA (CSS), organic farming and vermi composing (CSS),
Establishment of Division Complex, Mamit (NLCPR), etc.

DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
FISHERIES DEPARTMENT
FISHERIES
The main thrust during the 11 th Five Year Plan is to bring in more additional
water area under culture sector through Freshwater Aquaculture and Coldwater Fisheries
as well as to develop the Riverine and Reservoir fisheries in Mizoram. The state has as
good as 24,000ha of potential land for fish farming and it has been possible to develop
around 2,580ha of water area in the culture sector and also tap in the natural resources of
the rivers to produce around 3500M.T of fishes by the end of 2005-2006.
The strategy to augment the production further during the 11 th Five Year
Plan will require more investment to tap in all the CSS programme by contribution of state
share. The bulk of the total outlay for the 11 th Plan i.e, Rs.369 lakhs out of Rs.999 lakhs
proposed is directly linked to production of fish and fish seeds in the region. Other sources
of CSS fund in the tune of Rs.1123.40 lakhs would significantly play a vital role in
augmenting the fish production to the targeted level of 5000M.T during the 11 th Five Year
Plan.
With a demand lead approach the scheme, ‘Fresh water Aquaculture’ aims
in enhancing fish production towards self sufficiency and employment and income
generation in the rural areas by targeting an additional 3600Ha of water area for fish
culture during the 11 th Plan. The critical scheme like Fish Seed Production-cum-Farming
have been approached with practicability in the field to give a dynamic result in fish seeds
by taking into account the significance of inputs etc.
In the sectors like Extension & Training and Fresh Water Aquaculture the
farmers participatory approach has been considered to result in project sustenance. Further
in order to eliminate the imbalance or workload against the weak manpower of the
Department, creation of new posts has also been proposed under the Direction and
Administration to strengthen the organization of the Department during the 11 th Five Year
Plan.
Highlights of scheme wise break up of proposed outlay for the Draft 11 th
Five Year Plan is shown below:-

FISHERIES DEPARTMENT
DETAILS OF THE SCHEMES DURING 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN (2007-2012) AND
ANNUAL PLAN 2007-2008.
SCHEME NO.I
1. DIRECTION AND ADMINISTRATION:-
Although the Fisheries Department in Mizoram started setting up during the erstwhile
Union Territory in 1972 it has started functioning as a separate Directorate since 1993.
With the increasing work load due to the implementation of various fisheries
developmental activities and growth of resources it is imperative to strengthen its weak
manpower at the Directorate and Administration level. Therefore, the scheme provides for
increasing the manpower by creation of new ponds besides maintenance of the existing
Plan staff and other administrative cost to cope up the growth of activities successfully
during the 11 th Five Year Plan(2007-2012).
Present organizational set up:- The present organizational structure of Fisheries
Department is shown in details under Annexure ‘C’ at page 31. In fact, the organizational
structure shows a very weak set-up with insufficient manpower infrastructure. There is no
post of Director, however, the Department is headed by a Director on officiating basis at
present. Also, there is no SDO(Fishery) posts even at the Sub-Divisional level not to speak
of Block level. For administration purpose the present 8nos of Districts are clubbed
together into 3 Districts viz:- (1) Aizawl District(undivided) comprising of Aizawl ‘E’,
Champhai, Serchhip, Kolasib and Mamit Districts (2) Lunglei District (3) Chhimtuipui
District (undivided) comprising of Saiha and Lawngtlai Districts and they are looked after
by 3 District Officers and 1 Asst.Director of Fisheries. The Fish Farmers Development
Agency Units(5nos) are also looked after by 3(three) District Fisheries Development
Officers and 1(one) Asst.Director of Fisheries in addition to their normal duties as Chief
Executive Officers which should be in fact, functioned separately. The organizational
structure is also lacking many branches/wings like Planning, Information, Extension &
Training, Marketing etc and there is no proper Nodal Officers viz:- Dy.Director
(Technical/Administration). Planning etc in the Department.
Due to this weak organizational set up the development activities and strategic
planning of fisheries in the state could not pick up the momentum. Therefore, it is
proposed to strengthen the organization as per the requirement shown under Direction and
Administration schemes separately during the 11 th Five Year Plan.
The Draft 11 th Five Year Plan outlay under Direction and Administration is
Rs.262.00 lakhs and Draft Annual Plan 2007-2008 is Rs.115.00 lakhs as per details shown
below:-
A. DIRECTION:-
(i) Draft 11 th Five Year Plan Outlay :- Rs.185.00 lakhs
(ii) Draft Annual Plan outlay 2007-2008 :- Rs.46.00 lakhs
(iii) Anticipated expenditure 2006-2007 :- Rs.30.00 lakhs

- 66 -
DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
FISHERIES DEPARTMENT
The Department requires upgradation into full fledged Directorate with at least 8
wings and function under the Nodal Officers viz:-
(i) Establishment Unit
(ii) Planning Unit
(iii) Fish Seed Production-cum-Farming Unit
(iv) Freshwater Aquaculture
(v) Riverine and Cold Water Fisheries Unit
(vi) Information, Extension, Training & Research Unit
(vii) Marketing Unit
(viii) Fisheries Statistics(Database) Unit
The Department of Fisheries has very weak infrastructures like Office buildings
and staff quarters in the Headquarters, Districts, Sub-Divisional and Circle levels for
proper and smooth functioning of the Department. It is therefore, proposed to construct
Office buildings and staff quarters for the Directorate as well as the District Headquarter
during the 11 th Five Year Plan period. Site for the Directorate Office/Staff Quarters has
already been allotted to the Department for the above purpose.
B. ADMINISTRATION:- The Administrative set up is also required to re-organize
its structure to improve its capacity for implementation of various developmental activities.
At present 3 administrative units are functioning at District level and is headed by District
Fisheries Development Officer. It is difficult to implement the developmental Plan
Schemes smoothly due to lack of supporting staff. With the existence of 8 Districts in the
state it is required to strengthen the organizational structure in Fisheries Department in the
field level during 11 th Plan as shown below:-
Creation of Districts
Creation of Sub-Divisions
EXISTING PROPOSED
3nos 5nos(Kolasib, Mamit,
Champhai, Serchhip and
Lawngtlai)
- 10 nos
The administrative organisation in the District Head Quarters and the set up in the
field level are very weak in infrastructures which poses a constraint in smooth
implementation of various fisheries developmental programme. A strong co-ordination is
required with the staff posted in the field, District Headquarter and the Directorate by
ensuring proper working environments. Hence the working infrastructures viz:- Office
Buildings, Staff Quarters etc can not be looked over and it is quite inevitable to provide
these facilities for concentrating/streamlining effectively on the job.
Therefore, a provision has been made in the 11 th Five Year Plan to construct
District Office Buildings and Staff Quarters for smooth functioning of fisheries
development activities at the District level. This would also curtail the rental charges
towards hiring of buildings.
Details of the scheme with a provisional outlay of Rs.277.00 lakhs under
Administration during the 11 th Five Year Plan are shown below:-
(i) Draft 11 th Five Year Plan outlay :- Rs.277.00 lakhs
(ii) Draft Annual Plan outlay 2007-2008 :- Rs.69.00lakhs
(iii) Anticipated expenditure 2006-2007 :- Rs.61.00lakhs

(iii) Anticipated expenditure 2006-2007 :- Rs.10.00 lakhs
Fish seeds being a crucial input for boosting up fish production of a region its continuous
availability is a must to enhance fish yield in the state. However, the present production of
fish seeds in Mizoram is far below the actual requirement. Therefore, the strategy for
producing quality fish seeds in the region during the 11 th Five Year Plan are as follows:-
(a) To produce enough fish seeds by concentrating the efforts exhaustively in the
existing 3 Departmental Fish Seed Farms viz:- Lengpui, Tamdil and Zobawk.
(b) Privatisation of other Departmental Fish Seed Farms for production of fish
seeds and fish.
(c) Setting up fish seed rearing Units at critical remote areas which is quite
potential in fisheries viz:- Champhai, Chawngte etc.
(a) Strategy:- The Departmental Fish Seed Farms at Lengpui, Tamdil and Zobawk
requires a strong organization vamped with sufficient staff to run as a full fledged seed
production unit. More effort towards funding of the farms are required to have sufficient
inputs, labours etc for production of fish seeds. A critical problem faced usually in the Fish
Seed Farms are non-availability of good stock of brooder fishes which could be solved by
raising sufficient fingerlings in the ponds or by purchasing brood stock from other sources
for rearing up in the farms. Therefore, the 11 th Five Year Plan draft proposal provides
funds for meeting the above requirements.
(b) Due to paucity of fund and lack of manpower the Departmental Fish Seed
Farms which are not producing fish seeds adequately may be commercialized by
privatization to the progressive private entrepreneurs(Fisheries Society/Federation etc) of
the region for production of quality fish seeds/fishes to the desired level.
(c) The potential remote areas of fisheries like Champhai, Chawngte etc could be
supplied with adequate fish seeds by constructing fish seed rearing and distribution Units.
Spawns/fry could be raised up to fingerlings in these units for supply to the farmers of
remote areas for enhancing fish production.
A financial outlay of Rs.41.00 lakhs (token provision) has been proposed under the
scheme during the 11 th Five Year Plan as per details shown below:-

(i) 11 th Five Year Plan outlay 2007-2012 :- Rs.386.00 lakhs
(ii) Annual Plan outlay 2007-2008 :- Rs.126.00 lakhs
The main thrust during the 11 th Five Year Plan is to boost up the level of fish
production in the State from 3650M.T to 5000M.T in order to bridge the gap of fish
demand in the region. Therefore, the strategy in the Plan is to raise the level of fish
production from 1800kg/ha to 3000kg/ha. For achieving this target it is required to bring
more additional water area under fish culture and strengthen by intensive supply of inputs
viz:- Fish Seeds, Fish Feed etc to the fish farmers under the FFDA(CSS) and National
Fisheries Development Board activities as per the Central pattern of assistance.
Govt.of India has sanctioned 5(five) FFDA(Fish Farmers Development Agency) to
be implemented sharing the fund on approved item of works by Central Govt.and State
Govt.on 75:25 basis at Aizawl, Kolasib, Mamit, Lunglei and Saiha Districts and they are
functioning quite well. To avail the share of Govt.of India it is proposed to avail the
subsidy for farmers for construction of new ponds, renovation of existing ponds, providing
inputs to the fish farmers, training of farmers etc from Govt.of India for increasing more
water areas as well as for Development of Waterlogged areas. Under the scheme there is
provision for availing subsidy to individual farmers for integrated fish farming,
aerator/pumps, setting up freshwater fish seed Hatchery and for establishment of fish feed
unit on private sector during the 11 th Five Year Plan.

Further, the 11 th Plan 2007-2012 it also envisages creation of 2(two) new Fish
Farmers Development Agency Units for Champhai and Serchhip District 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 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 Freshwater Aquaculture. This will ensure the fisheries
development much more faster in the individual Districts in achieving the targets of self
sufficiency in fish in Mizoram.
The scheme also provides for other activities for boosting up fish production viz:-
Aquaculture in ponds and tanks, Reservoir fisheries and Domestic marketing under the
programme of National Fisheries Development Board during the 11 th Plan.
A provisional outlay of Rs.386.00 lakhs is proposed in the 11 th Five Year Plan as
State share under Freshwater Aquaculture as per details shown below:-

(i) 11 th Five Year Plan outlay 2007-2012 :- Rs.23.00 lakhs
(ii) Annual Plan outlay 2007-2008 :- Rs.10.00 lakhs
(iii)Anticipated expenditure 2006-2007 :- Rs.0.50 lakhs
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.
Inland Capture Fisheries(Reservoirs/Rivers etc) which is a scheme under CSS
Programme of Govt.of India on Development of Inland Fisheries and Aquaculture under
Macro Management approach envisages implementation of schemes through the Fisheries
Department of State Govt.on 75:25 central and state share financing pattern. During the
11 th Five Year Plan it is proposed to implement the scheme under CSS programme by
availing 75% scheme cost from Central Govt.and providing 25% State annual plan fund
taking a view for conservation and protection of Rivers/Reservoirs fisheries.
With the existence of the Mizoram Fisheries Act which has been passed by the
Mizoram Legislative Assembly on 27.9.2005, its implementation will call for intensive
study and survey of riverine system, fauna and habitats of economically important varieties
of fishes, declaration of fish sanctuary etc for development of Riverine Fisheries in the
state.Besides development of riverine fisheries and reservoir fisheries(in the Hydro
electricity Reservoir and Irrigation water bodies) will generate employment among the
dwellers in the vicinity of the reservoirs.

2) Annual Plan outlay 2007-2008 :- Rs.4.00 lakhs
3) Anticipated expenditure 2006-2007 :- Rs.2.50 lakhs
The Annual Plan, 2006-07 envisages to develop cold water fisheries in the state by
initiating with Resource survey works and experimentation for rearing/breeding of cold
water fishes viz:- Mahseer species etc in the Departmental Fish Farms as well as on fish
farmers fish pond situated at higher elevation in Mizoram by availing 75% of Central
assistance from Govt.of India under Coldwater Fisheries(CSS).
There is an ample scope for developing the Coldwater Fishery in local rivers,
reservoir lakes etc in Mizoram. During the Eleventh Plan it is proposed to develop
Coldwater fish farming in the state for production of Mahaseers etc and propagation by
stocking in the rivers, reservoir etc. Running water fish culture has also immense scope in
the hilly streams and could be developed by renovation/remodeling of many water bodies
in the region. Therefore, the 11 th Plan envisages to promote these ventures for boosting up
the fish production in the state.
The outlay proposed during the 11 th Five Year Plan under the scheme is Rs.9.00
lakhs as State share.
SCHEME NO.6
6. INFORMATION, EXTENSION & TRAINING:-
(i) 11 th Five Year Plan outlay 2007-2012 :- Rs.29.00 lakhs
(ii) Annual Plan outlay 2007-2008 :- Rs.12.90 lakhs
(iii) Anticipated expenditure 2006-2007 :- Rs.14.00 lakhs
Dissemination of technology at the grass root level is a must for improving the
farmers knowledge and skill to enhance fish production. The whole system of Information
& Extension requires strengthening the infrastructure and manpower for research and
development, and Lab to land application for raising the fish production. The thrust in the
Eleventh Plan is Human Resource Development through the CSS Programme and to
educate the pisciculturists for augmenting fish production. The Scheme also provides for
publication of training and extension manuals under the programme of Fisheries Training
& Extension(CSS). The existing Demonstration Farms are to be renovated and put under
training centres with proper infrastructures for exercising method and result
demonstrations viz:- Culture of Freshwater Prawn etc.
The 11 th Five Year Plan also provides fund for meeting the cost of organizing
training of the fish farmers and deputing In-service/fresh personnels for training in various
courses of fisheries science.
The Information, Extension & Training scheme in Fisheries Department will be
strengthened with the assistance under the CSS scheme, Training and Extension which is
to be implemented on 80:20 Central and State funding pattern. In order to encourage the
farmers participation in fish production with right use of fisheries technology,
Workshop/Seminars and training have been envisaged under the CSS programme during
the 11 th Five Year Plan.

(ii) Annual Plan outlay 2007-2008 :- Rs.17.00 lakhs
(iii) Anticipated expenditure 2006-2007 :- Rs.4.00 lakhs
Fish Marketing in Mizoram is very poor due to lack of proper communication, warehousing
and transport facilities. Though the production from culture sector has improved a
lot but due to the above lacunae the produces does not reach the marketing centre timely.
Such being the situation it is felt imperative to improve the Fisheries marketing system by
way of enhancing the capacities of the existing Ice Plans, Cold Storages and providing
transport facilities with Insulated Vans. Besides small Ice Plants of manageable capacities
are also required to set up at the potential areas viz:- Zawlnuam, Tlabung etc for better
disposal of fish produces to the main markets.
Therefore, the scheme provides for maintenance of the existing 3nos of Ice Plants and 2
Cold Storages properly for regular production of ice blocks, purchase of Insulated Van,
setting up of Ice Plants etc during the 11 th Five Year Plan.

9. COMMERCIAL FISH FARMING THROUGH CONTRACT FARMING:-
Commercial fish farming could be taken up in water bodies both in private sector
and Govt.sector through contract farming for boosting unit area productivity of fish in the
state. This would form an avenue for transforming primitive and traditional sustainable
farming, to modern commercial fish farming.
Under the scheme the Department proposes to take up large water bodies for fish
farming in the private sector(farmers ponds) by contract farming system. This system
would also offer the farmers a market assurance of his farm produces by undertaking the
marketing of his produces by the Department. Thereby it would encourage them in
enhancing the fish production through motivation and modernization.
The 11 th Plan envisages the Working Group’s recommendation for augmenting the
fish production through contract farming system and it is targeted to advocate the practice
in around 83Ha of water area during the 11 th Five Year Plan.

1. DIRECTION AND ADMINISTRATION :
Socio-economic development of the people through cooperatives
envisaged reorganization of the department to cover wider field of activities and
effective performance. Therefore, the organizational set up of Cooperation
Department is urgently required to be strengthened and expanded with a view to
restructuring the cooperative movement. Separation of Inspection and Audit with
separate staff to have proper gross checking is found a must and is proposed to be
done during the 11 th Plan period.
LAND AND BUILDING :
During the 11 th Five Year Plan the Department proposed to construct the
Office Building and Staff Quarters in the districts of Kolasib, Champhai, Mamit, Serchhip,
Lunglei and Saiha. The Department has acquired suitable sites in those districts for such
construction.
2. TRAINING AND EDUCATION (HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT) :
Specific knowledge has to be acquired for strengthening the Cooperative
Movement and for efficient management of Cooperatives. A numbers of Officers have
been sent to undergo Post Graduate Diploma Course on Cooperative Management in
VAMNICOM, Pune and Higher Diploma Courses in Cooperative Management at the

3. AUDIT AND EVALUATION OF COOPERATIVES :
Audit of Cooperative Societies is statutory. For the evaluation of
Cooperatives functioning, Audit, Inspection and Supervision is profoundly necessary.
Audit Cell has been created under this Department. This establishment maintain Chief
Audit Officer, Accountant, U.D.C, L.D.C and Driver considering the heavy workloads.
This mere skeleton is not enough. In almost all the state of the country, Audit Cell and
Inspection cell are separately maintained. Auditors are doing only audit works. But here in
Mizoram, Audit and Inspection are performed by the same person and as such, there can be
no cross checking on the performances of the Auditors. It also give undue heavy workloads
which hamper the efficient performances of the Auditor cum Inspectors. Where as All
India norms is 20 Primary Coop. Societies located in a compact area for one Auditors, in
Mizoram one Auditors audited more than 50 primary Cooperative Societies scattered at
every nook and corner of Mizoram. Not only this, the same Auditor has to perform
inspection, taking feasibility enquiry for organizing new Coop. Societies, organization,
liquidation etc. It is therefore, suggested that Audit Cell and Inspection Cell be separately
maintained and manned by different person.
4. COOPERATIVE STATISTICS :
For preparations of various statistical statements as desired by the State
Govt., Central Govt. and other agencies and for the information about the position of
Cooperative Movement as per the datas, facts and figures, a Statistical Cell is necessary in

the existing Officers and Staff.
6. PUBLICITY, INFORMATION AND TECHNOLOGY :
Under this Scheme one Research Officer will be appointed to assess and
evaluate the achievement and implementation of various schemes projected by the
department and will provide needful technical guidance/assistance for different schemes
etc. One of the drawbacks of the Department is the lack of Publicity of its programmes and
their implementations due to absence of the required Fund. For Monitoring the progress of
the Departmental Actions, using Information Technology is the most effective and
cheapest means. For this, the Department is proposing to have fund from the 11 th Plan
period of 2007 - 2012.
7. AUDIT AND EVALUATION OF COOPERATIVES :

(1) To meet the needs of awareness, skills and competence of the land
revenue and survey personnel in the preparation and maintenance of land records and
land administration of Mizoram.

MEDIUM IRRIGATION (PWD)
INTRODUCTION :-
MEDIUM IRRIGATION (PWD)
Mizoram is having a hilly topography. Shifting cultivation is themain 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.
ACHIEVEMENT OF THE 10 TH PLAN : -
No provision was kept for Direction and Administration during the 10 th Plan (2002
- 2007 ) under this Head of Account.
During the 10 th Plan, Rs 5.00 lakhs was approved for protection of river banks at
R. Tuipui, R. Tlawng at Bairabi and Sairang under this head. Bank protection of R.
Teirei under Kawrthah and Mamit Divisions amounting to Rs 10.00 lakhs were carried

Remarks
During the Tenth Plan period, On Farm Development works like
land leveling & shaping, contour bunding etc. had been included as a part and parcel of
Minor Irrigation Projects/schemes which had been proved very effective in enhancing
utilisation of created irrigation potentials and helped the farmers in realising project
benefits at early stages of project implementations. This will be continued during the
Eleventh Plan with more involvement of the farmers in the process right from the stage
of project formulation.
Under Bharat Nirman Programme (2005-06 to 2008-09), physical
targets and financial outlay of Minor Irrigation Schemes had been increased
substantially and Programme will continue upto 2008-09.
29 on-going projects and 61 new projects are taken up during the
year 2006-07. Out of these 90 Minor Irrigation Projects, only 38 projects covering total
culturable command area of 1,463 ha are scheduled for completion during 2006-07
while the remaining 52 projects will spill over to the Eleventh Plan.
Therefore, the Eleventh Plan will have to begin with 52 spill-over
projects with total culturable command area of 2,177 ha; all these spill-over projects are
scheduled to be completed during 2007-08 with an outlay of Rs.2,267.74 lakhs.
The proposed outlay under Minor Irrigation and Command Area
Development Schemes during Eleventh Plan is Rs.16181.00 lakhs as stated below:

A study of several completed irrigation projects has revealed that utilisation of
the potentials created by completed minor irrigation projects is low. Absence of
distribution channels, lining of water channels to save water, land levelling and other
activities are main factors. Under Command Area Development Programmes like
adoptive trials, supply of inputs, extension service and other activities as mentioned
above will also be taken up.
As such cluster of 28 completed Minor Irrigation projects in Aizawl, 4 clusters in
Lunglei and 8 clusters in Chhimtuipui covering gross command area of 1361 have been
sanctioned by Government of India to be taken under Command Area Development
Programme w.e.f. 2001-2002. The same projects are approved to be continued in 2005-

7. 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,

In the ensuing 11th Five Year Plan : 2007-2012, MIFCO proposes to promote
private sector in food processing industries. So much so, a Project Consultancy Cell has
been established so as to render assistance to private entrepreneurs by way of
preparation of Detailed Project Reports for seeking financial assistance from various
sources like Govt. of India, Ministry of Food Processing Industries etc. Moreover,
MIFCO proposes to take up such Projects as to benefit the private sector units like Cold
Storage, Pack House and Value Added Centre. Hence the main thrust of the 11th Five
Year Plan for MIFCO will be on private sector, instead of further promotion of public
sector units.
By the end of the current financial year 2006-2007, the paid up capital of
MIFCO would be Rs.16.04 crores, out of the authorised share capital of Rs.20 crores.
As such, MIFCO proposes that the balance amount of Rs.3.94 crores would be
distributed during the 5 years period by reducing the amount year after year. Moreover,
the commissioned units of MIFCO are expected to earn revenue by way of profit from
sales of products thereby earning profit by the end of the 11th Five Year Plan, instead of
incurring losses year after year.
On careful examination of the prevailing industrial scenario in food
processing sector of the State, MIFCO proposes to take up only Services-related
Projects viz. Pack House, Cold Chain, Cold Storage and Value Added Centre for the
benefit of potential private entrepreneurs who will be rendered all possible assistance by
the Corporation.
Main focus of the 11 th Five Year Plan of MIFCO :
* Promotion of Private Sector
(i) Project Consultancy Cell
(ii) Services-related Projects
* Generation of revenue through joint venture with reputed company in passion

Commercial Tea Plantation have been developed in Biate villages during the 9 th
& 10 th Plan period. There are around 42 lakhs Tea Bushes covering 285 hectares of land.
This would be sufficient to feed the existing Tea Factory, commissioned in 2006. It is
therefore, proposed to discontinue commercial Tea Plantation during the 11 th Plan
period. Small Tea growers of Biate are, however, free to expand their garden to earn
more income.
In Ngopa, Commercial Tea Plantation started during the last two years of 9 th
Plan. It is still continued during the 10 th Plan. Therefore, it is proposed to continue
during the 1st three years of 11 th Plan. During this period of ten years, it is expected that
around 49 lakhs tea bushes covering 240 hectares of land would come under Tea
Plantation which would be sufficient to feed one Tea Factory, commissioned in 2004.
It is also proposed to cover three new villages under Commercial Tea Plantation
during the 11 th Plan period. Two villages – Seling and Tlungvel would be covered from
the first year of the Plan and Baktawng village from the fourth year.

(Budget Head : 2851 – Village & Small Industries, 800(01) –Dev. of Bamboo Industry)
Development of Medium Bamboo Cluster for Primary Processing and value
addition :
Bamboo can be processed into various applications for revenue generation.
However, bamboo, in its natural form, is routed and hollow, which leads to constraints
in transport. The alternative is primary processing in an area over the sources. So,
medium bamboo cluster for primary processing and value addition as a feeder to the
main industry is proposed. The projected industries are paper mill, mat ply industry,
floor based industry and stick making units. The unit cost of cluster is estimated at an
average of Rs.40.00 lakh. It is proposed to set up such clusters during the 5-year period.
Grant-in-Aid to Bamboo Development Agency : With an object of all-round
bamboo sector development in the State and utilization aspects as thrust area, the
Government of Mizoram has established a Society named Bamboo Development
Agency. The Agency has been entrusted with various works/projects like Bamboo
Technology Park, Joint Venture with Mizoram Venus Bamboo Products (P) Ltd. And
Zonun Mat Ply Ltd., Industrial Complex at Bairabi, Facilitation Training cum
Production Centre at Zuangtui, Bamboo Resource Area Connectivity Road at Bairabi,
Nodal Agency for ASIDE Scheme in Mizoram and Chip business with NITOL Group of
Bangladesh and Cachar Paper Mill, promotion and assistance to various private bamboo
processing units, implementation of some portion of BAFFACOS Scheme, etc.
The Agency has started generating some income from its activities, however,
certain shortfalls will be there and with a prospect in growth bamboo based industries in
the State, the Agency will be in need of strengthening, etc.
As such, an amount of Rs.75.00 lakhs is proposed for the 11 th Five Year
Plan.
Other Expenses : Some expenditure will be required for entrepreneurship
development, skill upgradation, publicity – information dissemination, advertisement,
entertainment, etc and to cover these activities, an amount of Rs.200.00 lakhs is
proposed during the 11 th Five Year Plan.

SERICULTURE
Introduction :
SERICULTURE
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 holdin g 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 cocoon and raw silk 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

- 137 -
DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
SERICULTURE
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.
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 plantation can be raised easily everywhere in the
State. It grows at lower altitude on sides of the hill and on top of the hills also.
It has been approved that different Mulberry varieties including hybrid varieties
have also been successfully propagated in many parts of the State. Since
Mulberry is a fast growing perennial plants and the silk produced from
silkworms, feeding on Mulberry leaf is of high quality and commonly used by
people of the world, the State Govt. also has given priority for its development
during the 10 th Plan period which will continue in the 11 th Plan Period also.
(b) Eri : Eri silkworm is semi-wild in nature and successfully cultured in the State
of Mizoram. The silk produced by the Eri Cocoons is commonly used for
chuhidar (showl) and silk quilt making. Eri food plants like Castor, Kesseru,
Tapioca, etc. can be grown in all parts of the State without difficulty. Therefore,
step will be taken to promote Eri industry also during the 11 th Plan.
(c) Muga : Muga Silkworm is found only in the the then Assam
Valley including Mizoram. It produces golden silk which fetches the highest
price as compared to all other variety of silk yarns. Mizoram is found to be one
of the promising States for production of golden Muga cocoons which, in turn,
may be a good source of income for the State.
(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 11 th Plan period (2007-2012) 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

- 138 -

SERICULTURE
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 11 th Plan Period, necessary provision as matching contributions
have been provided under Promotion & Extension scheme.
THE SCHEMES :
During the 11 th Plan Period also the seven (7) ongoing schemes will
continue to be implemented. However, a number of additional new components will be
added in some of the Schemes.
The followings are the major continuing schemes to be implemented in
the 11 th Plan Period.
1. Direction
2. Administration
3. Promotion and Extension
4. Sericulture Marketing
5. Research & Training
6. Silk Processing (Post cocoon technology)
7. Seed Organisation

planning and implementation, monitoring of all work activities, financial control to over
all control of sanction expenditures.
During the 11 th Plan Period residential quarters will be constructed in the
Directorate Complex. The existing buildings will be maintained and improvement shall
be made as per requirement from time to time. Fencing of Sericulture Complex,
Chaltlang shall be taken up too..
Under Administration of District offices, the main components of the
scheme are :-
(i) Maintenance and upkeep of all District Offices
(ii) During the 11 th Plan Period, 5 District Offices and 15 nos. of Staff quarters
are proposed to be constructed at different Districts of the State.
(iii) All Seed farms and centres shall be maintained which include repairs of
technical buildings, offices and quarters. Production of Cocoons and raw silk
will be 500 M.T. and 50 M.T. respectively.

NO. 3 : PROMOTION & EXTENSION
This Scheme mainly concern with extension and promotional activities at
village level benefiting the farmers. It provides technical assistance and gives
subsidy/grant-in-aid to the registered farmers from time to time. Various Catalytic
Development Projects sponsored by the Central Silk Board will be incorporated under
this scheme for promotional upgradation of Mulberry, Eri, Muga, Oak Tasar and Post
Cocoon activities.
The scheme will extensively provide planting materials including fencing
materials and machineries/equipments to the farmers. During 11 th Plan Period, it is
proposed to cover 10000 families under Mulberry Sector, 500 families under Muga
Sector, 500 families under Eri Sector and 300 families under Oak Tasar Sector. Since
the existing strength of staff is far below the requirement, necessary posts from
Extension Officer down to Rearer are proposed to be created to cope with the increasing
work activities.

NO. 4 : SERICULTURE MARKETING
In more advanced states/countries, so long as marketing is concerned,
systematically organized marketing by-laws and procedures to be followed are framed.
In such marketing system the sales and transactions are between the farmers, reelers and
the weavers. The involvement of the Government is so little.
In the case of Mizoram where such systems are yet to be at our reach, the
marketing of the produce of the farmers has been directly handled by the Government
Department. This is necessary since there is no organized silk reeler and weaver in the
State. In short, the cocoons produced by the farmers are purchased by the Government
at the rates fixed by the Government from time to time. To purchase the cocoons
produced by the farmers the Sericulture Department fixed five places as purchasing
centres. These centres are Aizawl, Serchhip, Champhai, Kolasib and Lunglei.
In all the above purchasing centres, scientific cocoon godowns are
required to be constructed for storage of cocoons before they are sent to the reeling
factory at Zemabawk. During 11 th Plan as far as practicable marketing of Sericulture
produce are propose to be privatized. Therefore, this has to be examined in-depth to see
its practical feasibility carefully.
Besides, all necessary equipments/machineries will be purchased.
Tentative allocations for the 11 th Plan and Annual Plan 2007-08 are as below

NO. 5 : 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-organized 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
in Post cocoon sector
4. To conduct study tours for trainees from time to time.
5. To conduct mobile training to farmers of far flung areas. It is proposed to train
10000 farmers and 150 in-service persons.
6. Construction/repairs of quarters.
Besides above, during the 11 th Plan period the Research and Training
institute, Zemabawk will be entrusted to work on plant protection and plant & animal
pathology extensively so as to eradicate various dreadful disease of food plants and
silkworms. Necessary post for teaching staff will be created during
11 th Plan period.
Targets for 11 th Plan and Annual Plan 2007-08 are as below.

NO.6 : SILK PROCESSING (POST COCOON TECHNOLOGY)
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.

- 141 -
DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
SERICULTURE
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. At least
one automatic silk reeling machine will be installed in the private sector during 11 th
Plan.
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.

NO. 7 : SEED ORGANISATION
The whole gamut of seed production comprises of seed organization 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
ultimate production of industrial hybrid seed which involved, in seed production, viz.
breeders stock, basic seed and industrial seed. This will also include maintenance of
purity, vigour and vitality.
The main theme of seed organization is to produce sufficient healthy
silkworm eggs to meet the requirement of the farmers.
Although the department has been very much aware about how to have
systematic seed organization in the past, it was unable to organize standard seed
organization due to paucity of fund. Even in the 11 th Plan, if fund is not provided
sufficiently, this scheme shall flop and the victims will be the poor farmers.
Main activities in the 11 th Plan will be :
(i) To construct 6 nos. of Seed grainages at Lunglei, Serchhip, Champhai,
Thenzawl, Aizawl and Kolasib.
(ii) To produce 20.00 lakh nos. industrial seeds.
(iii) Necessary equipments will be purchased.

MINES & MINERALS
INTRODUCTION: The Geology & Mining Wing of Industries Department undertake
the following Schemes during the 10 th Plan (2002-07):-
1). Ground Water Investigation , development and Monitoring.
2). Geotechnical Investigations and 3). Minor Mineral Investigation and Development.
During this Five year Plan, the Drilling Rigs donated by N.E.C during 1988-89
become unusable due to break down of the engines and much head way could not be
made in the development of Ground water. In spite of the stated conditions, the
department is conducting detail Ground water Investigations in 6 district Capitals , viz
Aizawl, Lunglei, Champhai, Kolasib and Mamit and quarterly monitoring of the
ground water conditions were conducted .
The department also conducted landslide investigations and zonation in a phase
manner. The department, in coordination with the Town and Country Planning wing of
Local Administration Department, conducted number of House Site Investigations for
issuing House Construction Approval of private parties. Besides, the department, in
coordination with the Regional Research Laboratory (RRL), Jorha,. installed
Seismograph during 2005-06, for monitoring earthquakes in Mizoram. Slope stability
mapping and disaster monitoring has also been conducted in different parts of the state
during this period
The department has implemented the Mizoram Minor Mineral Concession Rules,
2000 with effect from 2005-06. Number of quarrying permits have been issued in
different parts of the state earning considerable amount of revenue for the state. Factory
for manufacturing of stone slabs/tiles was also set up by the department during this
period, with the assistance of N.E.C which will make use of the hard rock resources, and
shell limestones in different parts of the state.
In order to monitor the exploitation of minor minerals like sand, building
materials/hard rocks, clay etc. the department proposes to open at least three (3) District
Offices during the 11 th Five Year Plan. Govt of Mizoram has also approved to erect
check gates for monitoring the movements of minor minerals at ten(10) locations in
different parts of the state. It is also expected that the exploitation of sand deposits will
go in a big way to earn revenue for the state in the coming years. As such, the
department requires strengthening in man power and it is also proposes that a separate
Directorate can be established during the 11 th Five Year Plan. The detail of work
programme and Financial requirement during the 11 th Five Year Plan 2007-2012 are
stated below:-
I. DIRECTION & ADMINISTRATION: This scheme will provide administrative

II. GROUND WATER INVESTIGATION, DEVELOPMENT & MONITORING
The department as well as the Central organization like Central Ground Water Board,
has identified a number of potential ground water zone/points to construct tube wells for
development of ground water in Mizoram. There are also some Geological Formations
where deep tube wells can be constructed and used for irrigation purposes.
Effort is on to obtain Drilling rigs with the assistance of Central Organizations
like IBM, NEC etc. If the effort of the department is successful, development
Organizations of ground water by constructing shallow and deep tube wells can go a
long way to satisfy the needs of the public and farmers for domestic and agriculture

ROAD TRANSPORT
Transport Department in Mizoram has been playing vital roles to
facilitate movement of passengers and goods to various destinations within and outside
the State. Though the Government is implementing Privatization of Government
Vehicles Scheme, the MST service will continue to play active central role during 11 th
Five Year Plan due to its peculiar nature of transportation service it delivers to the
general public at low cost fares and freights purely in the interest of public service.
Hence, most of the schemes taken up during the 10 th Plan are inevitably proposed to
carry on in the 11 th Five Year Plan.
Followings are the main schemes proposed to be taken up during the 11 th
Five Year Plan 2007-12.
Re-Construction of Directorate office Building of Transport Department : As per
the recommendation of the Disaster Management Committee and as a result of the
findings by the Inspection Team, re-construction of Directorate Building of Transport
Department is proposed..
Augmentation of Buses: Most of the present fleet are overage and did not
suffice the need of the existing routes. Besides, due to improvement and augmentation
of roads, procurement of new Buses such as Medium Buses and A.C Coaches are
automatically needed in order to meet the requirement of passengers.
Upgradation of Central Workshop: As a result of Govt’s policy on privatization
of vehicle, it is proposed that Transport Department be declared as Centralised Nodal
Department for Govt. Vehicles repair. Therefore, upgradation of Central Workshop with
special tools and machineries are proposed in addition to the existing equipments.
E-Governance: To cope with the necessities of modernization, the
Department proposed to introduce Computerisation of MST services, aiming to promote
better performances within the department services for the interest of the public during
the 11 th Five Year Plan..
Promoting Public Private Partnership: The Department endorses a new initiative
to promote public private partnership as far as practicable within the realms of its
activities. As a pilot project, certain number of routes will be declared and notified as
exclusive routes for the MST only. On these routes, Private Operators will run their
passengers and goods service under the banner of MST only. Certain amount of share
from the earnings of these private operators will contribute to the Department revenue
collection. In return, the Department will provide necessary service for repairs of their
vehicles at concession rates, maintaining the equilibrium of profits in favor of the
Government. The scheme is also co-related with up-gradation of the existing two
Workshops run by the Department. It will also generate self-employment opportunity for
educated youth, especially in rural and semi-urban areas.
All other on-going programmes and schemes which were taken up during
the 10 th Five Year Plan under Road Transport Wing are also proposed to save and
continue in the 11 th Five Year Plan 2007 – 2012.

M.V.WING
2041 – TAXES ON VEHICLES (M.V.Wing)
The state of Mizoram is pacing towards all round development along with its
sister states in the North East India. Increasing development of road infrastructures and
commercial activities resulted in enormous increase in vehicle population in the State.
As an offshoot of this positive advancement, the duties and responsibilities of the MV
Wing has been considerably enhanced during the 10 th Five Year Plan. Therefore, to cope
with this development and future expansion, it is considered necessary to up-grade the
Wing with modernized technology, strengthening with effective infrastructure demand
of the growing needs and widening its function in the newly created Districts of the
State. In the scenario, enforcement of the M.V Act and Rules can be efficiently carried
out only if new District Transport Offices are opened in the newly created Districts, in
the interest of public service. Simultaneously, revenue collection of the Department is
expected to increase to a large extent from this Wing of the Department.
The existing STA Office is holding the main gear and acting as a nerve
center for enforcement of MV Act and Rules in the whole state of Mizoram. They look
after the MV Wing of the Department relating to all STA matters and enforcement of
MV Act and Rules in letter and spirit. However, they are functioning with no fullfledged
staffing patterns and essential infrastructures. Therefore, strengthening of this
Wing is proposed to take up in the 11 th Five Year Plan.
In the district of Aizawl, vehicle population is rapidly increased day by
day thereby burdening the workload of the existing DTO Office becoming heavier than
ever before in every sunrise of the day. The existing DTO and staff are inadequate to
effectively enforce MV Act and Rules in the present condition. Hence, opening of
another DTO Office in Aizawl District, dividing jurisdictions in North and South
districts, is inevitably needed to efficiently deliver the service requirement and demand
of vehicle owners and general public. The Department proposes to open a new DTO
Office in the existing Aizawl District during the 11 th Five Year Plan.
Opening of new DTO Offices in Mamit and Lawngtlai District
Headquarters is also proposed due to pressing public demand and increasing vehicular
population in these newly created districts. It is, therefore, desirable to be implemented
during the 11 th Five Year Plan.
Hence, the following schemes are proposed to take up during the 11 th
Five Year Plan 2007 – 2012, and Annual Plan 2007-08. Abstract of the schemes are as

2.2 Special Manpower Development:
The first requirement in the knowledge society is education which is central to personal,
organizational and national well-being. Important strategic policy decisions on education
must be taken in the next few years.
These decisions must reflect the need to:
(i) Upliftment of educated unemployed youths of Mizoram through IT
Entrepreneurs Development Programme for sustainable self-employment
generation.
(ii) Change organizational structure to enable them to deliver learning efficiently in
an information society, from pre-school children to senior citizens.
(iii) Adapt and develop curricula to take advantage of opportunities afforded by IT to
boost creativity, give greater access to information, and improve learning
capability.
(iv) Retain the best parts of our current educational culture in the quest for high
standards of scholastic attainment, with optional use of IT as a learning and
educational aid.
(v) Sponsoring students opted for regular classes in MCA, MSc (IT), BE/B.Tech
(Computer/IT), M.Tech/MS/M.Phil (Computer/IT), Ph.D (Computer/IT).

2.3 IT Promotional Development
Another important area that needs to be deliberated on is, evolving a suitable and
effective mechanism for launching mass IT awareness campaign. IT awareness is one of
the effective mechanisms for IT promotion in the state of Mizoram. The common man in
the state is largely unaware of the benefits and potential of IT in his or her day-to-day
life. A massive awareness campaign is therefore required to be launched, to educate
people about what IT can mean for improving their quality of life. Information regarding
government rules, regulations, programmes and services is an essential aspect of
empowering the people. Launching of IT Yatras (journeys) and other forms of
awareness campaign across the state in collaboration with NGOs, educational
institutions, corporate sector and others are available options to this end.
Workshop and Seminar are also one of the important factors for governing IT Promotion
in the State. IT Entrepreneurs Development programme will also be organized to
promote IT Industry, IT Software and IT Services in the state of Mizoram.
Under this scheme, various activities such as publication of Mizoram IT Journal, holding
of Exhibitions, Seminars, IT Mela, and IT Yatra (Journey) will be taken up in
association with Mizoram IT Teachers Association, Computer Associated Industries,
and Mizoram IT Promoters’ Association. Top tens of Class X & XII students in
Computer & IT subject at the MBSE examination will be given one Desktop Computer
each every year for promoting IT among the students.

ENVIRONMENT & FOREST
ENVIRONMENT & FORESTS DEPARTMENT
The approach for the 11 th Five Year Plan incorporates the following main
elements:
- Resource mobilization – harvest and sale of bamboos in view of gregarious
flowering.
- Increasing forest productivity. The per hectare growing stock of Mizoram’s
forest is only 35 cum as against the national average of 65 cum/ha. A
massive programme for increasing productivity through people’s centric
approach in afforestation is required in order to meet the growing demand
for timber and fuelwood.
- Rehabilitation of jhumlands through promotion of agro-forestry/farm
forestry.
- A special focus on Biological Conservation in view of North Eastern
Region’s unique position as biological highway between India and the
Malayan region. This will include development and conservation of
medicinal plants, orchids and bamboos.
- To preserve, protect and manage the State’s forest and wildlife resources,
infrastructural improvements, capacity and management interventions are
also proposed which include suitable mechanisms for protection, preparation
of Working Plans and strengthening of human resource planning and
management, including mutation of fertile riverine forests with hill forests.
- Provision of quality planting materials through improved and innovative
technologies in nursery and plantation. This will be part of the Green
Mizoram Programme launched since 1999 which is a people’s movement in
the State.
- Strengthening of Institutional framework for World Bank Project Cell,
Bamboo Cell, State Biodiversity Board and Pollution Control Board. The
JFM network will also be further strengthened for greater involvement of
people and sustaining such programmes.
- Strengthening of monitoring mechanism through establishment of IT
network to the Divisional/Range levels is also envisaged.
- Maintenance of forest under Finance Commission.

INTRODUCTORY NOTES ON THE STATEMENT OF XI th FIVE YEAR PLAN
2007-2012 OF ENVIRONMENT & FOREST DEPARTMENT
The XI th Plan Strategy of the Environment & Forests Department is to meet dayto
day needs of local population for food, water, fuel, fodder, timber, non-wood forest
products and for long term environment stability, ecological balance and economic
development of the state.
The actual Forest cover in the country is monitored every two years by Forest
Survey of India based on studies of Satellite imageries. The geographical area of
Mizoram has dense forests and the major portions are open forests and the rest is
scrub/non-forest areas. As per National Forest Policy 1988, in the hills and in
mountainous regions like Mizoram, the aim should be to maintain two-third of the area
under forest or tree cover in order to prevent erosion and land degradation and to ensure
the stability 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 subject to pressure of shifting cultivation,
encroachments, grazing fire, illicit felling etc.
However, Bamboo resources are abundant in the state and efforts have been
made to establish tissue, culture, laboratory and bamboo sectors. Further, bamboo
plantation development works shall also be taken with active participation of farmers
interested in growing bamboo in farm sector.
The practice of shifting cultivation had contributed to a large scale deforestation
in disturbing ecological balance considerably i.e. destruction of wild animals and their
habitats, elimination of source of water and so on. It also converted vast area
comprising valuable timber trees into degraded or barren land.
The survey, demarcation, mapping and settlement of land including forests lands
is pre-requisite for evolving proper integrated land use system. This is yet to be
completed. Hence for proper control and scientific management of forests on a
sustainable basis consolidation of notified forests/reserved forests will be necessary.
More attention will be given in the productivity of forests most of which is very
low. There has been very little silvicultural research to evolve technologies and
practices suiting to local conditions to increase productivity.
Damages to forests by illicit fellings and removal of forests produce, fireencroachments,
grazing are common. Protection of forests from such factors would be
necessary by strengthening the organizational set up and equipping the staff with
vehicles/boats, Arms and communication facilities to be effective in preventing such
damages. At present organization is ill-equipped to deal with above.
There is wide gap between sustainable supplies from existing forest resources
and the demands to be met from them. Hence to increase production of wood and nontimber
forest produce to meet local needs and to reduce the gap between supply and
demand, taking up massive forest regeneration programme (both plantation and aided
natural regeneration) would be necessary.Plantation created need periodic tendings in
the nature of thinning, opening fire lines to prevent fire damage etc. to optimize the
final yield. However, no funds could be made available after formation years of such
plantations in the past with the result that for want of subsequent tendings, growth and
development of plantations have been affected adversely. It would be necessary to
provide sufficient funds for periodic tendings and protection of forest area already
regenerated to optimize the yield from forest lands.

ENVIRONMENT & FOREST
Mizoram is quite rich in bio-diversity and genetic resources. To conserve,
protect and develop the bio-diversity and genetic resources, protected area net-work
(National Parks, Sanctuaries) will need to be further expanded and those already
declared consolidated for future to latest report.
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 the purpose, tree growing and
protecting forests with active involvement and participation of private individuals and
communities will need to be promoted on massive scale through appropriate extension
programmes.
To cope up with increased work programmes envisages to be undertaken as
above for preservation, development and sustainable management of forests through
Working Plan/Scheme and wildlife, strengthening of the forests organizations with
respect to man-power and the Human resource development through training,
equipments and facilities would also be necessary during the plan period.
The total proposed outlay for the XI th Five Year Plan (2007-2012) and Annual
Plan (2007-2008) is as follows (Rs. in lakh) :

ITEM WISE DESCRIPTION
1. DIRECTION AND ADMINISTRATION
(1) DIRECTION : The Organisational set up of Environment & Forest
Department is required to be strengthened and expanded with a view to shoulder the
challenges in protection of open forest wealth, wildlife, planning, execution,
supervision, co-ordination, monitoring of development programmes, utilization of forest
awareness and seeking participation of people in protection and development of forests,
administration and enforcement of Laws on forests, wildlife and environment, research,
training of personnel etc.
The present administrative set up is not considered adequate for an efficient
management of forests. To bring better control and management of forest resources on
scientific basis, it is necessary to have an efficient administrative organization with
sufficient officers at management level and adequate staff at execution level.
Financial outlay proposed for maintenance of existing staff of 59 Nos. and
establishment cost of PCCF Office and 5 Circle Offices during the XI th Five Year Plan
(2007 – 2012) is Rs 625.00 lakhs and Annual Plan (2007 – 2008) is Rs 170.00 lakhs.
(2) ADMINISTRATION: This scheme is to provide expenditure towards
salary/allowances towards the salary/allowances of the existing 101 nos. staff of the
establishment of 11 existing Territorial Divisions besides the normal expenses to run
these establishments. Financial outlay proposed during XIth Five Year Plan (2007 –
2012) is Rs 650.00 lakhs and Annual Plan (2007 – 2008) is Rs 180.00 lakhs
2. SURVEY OF FOREST RESOURCES
The main objective of the scheme is Forestry Research and Consolidation of
Forests including preparation of management plans (working plans) for forest resources.
Under this scheme the following 2 programmes are proposed to be taken up.
(i) Forestry Research
(ii) Consolidation of Forests & Working Plans.
3. FORESTRY RESEARCH
In spite of the fact that Forestry Research is the very foundation for forestry
development, till recently the same has not been taken up seriously in Mizoram. With a
view to give impetus to the forestry research, the existing Forest Resources Survey
Division was created during 1986-1987. Moreover, there is very poor database on
Silvicultural practices to grow various trees species in Mizoram. The growth and volume
data of various species found/ grown in the State are not available. No scientific
management of forest resources is possible in absence of scientific data & practices
derived after proper research and application. In State like Mizoram which has a
diversified vegetational cover and where a massive afforestation programme is going on,
forestry research to evolve technologies and practices to increase productivity from
forest areas is very small. Therefore the need has been felt to conduct forestry research
on various aspects as below:

- 183 -
DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
ENVIRONMENT & FOREST
(i) Tree improvement & development of seeds through seed production areas, seed
Orchards, etc.
(ii) Phenological studies of important local tree species.
(iii) Maintenance of sample plots, preservation plots, orchid sanctuaries etc.
(iv) Standardization of nursery techniques of important indigenous species to be used
for afforestation programmes.
(v) Undertaking experimental plantation of new species ( local as well as exotic) to
standardize their silvicultural practice for adoption in our programmes.
(vi) Survey of Minor Forest Produce like bamboo, cane, orchids, Medicinal plants,
etc, and their development for better utility.
Present staff strength is 25 Nos. During XIth Five Year Plan, it is proposed to
continue with the above research works, with the main objective of increasing
productivity on forest lands. The proposed expenditure for the XIth Five Year Plan is Rs
150.00 lakhs and Annual Plan for 2007-2008 is Rs 30.00 lakh.
3. CONSOLIDATION OF FORESTS & WORKING PLAN
For proper scientific management of forests, survey, demarcation, consolidation
of forests, collection, compilation & analysis of various data on resources are required to
be taken up before management plans for managing forest on scientific lines could be
prepared. In absence of proper survey, demarcation and consolidation of reserve, forest
encroachments & disputes about land ownership are very common because of which
preparing & managing the forest land properly is not possible. The works will include
survey, demarcation and consolidation of reserve forest boundaries with pucca boundary
pillars, compartment and sub-compartment boundaries, marking of sample plots and
preservation plots, their maintenance, enumeration in compartments & subcompartments,
preparing of management/working plan etc.
Proposed outlay during the XIth Plan is Rs 40.00 lakhs and Annual Plan 2007-
2008 is Rs 8.00 lakh.
5. COMMUNICATION AND BUILDINGS
The objectives of this scheme are to provide accommodation (both for offices &
residences) to officers & staff and construction of approach roads/paths to forest
colonies and plantations/forest areas for their access. This also provides for the
maintenance of above assets created so far. There are at present 73 ranges/200
Beats/Checkposts which are mostly in the remote forest areas lacking normal civic
amenities. It is necessary that appropriate accommodation with proper access to the
same is made available to the staff so that they can discharge their functions effectively.
Under this scheme, 2 sub-schemes as below are proposed to be taken up during the XIth
plan.
COMMUNICATION
Roads/paths are very important for proper management, protection and
harvesting of forests in Mizoram. Rugged terrain, steep slopes, fragile geology,
preference of Mizo people for habitation on hill ranges through which generally most of
roads passes are factors which make accessibility in the forest areas difficult and
expensive. Further the long period of insurgency also hampered the development of
infrastructure in the past. In absence of roads, cost of harvesting forest produce is quite
high and their protection and management also becomes difficult. Therefore under this
scheme, it is proposed to construct approach roads/paths to various field offices in

- 184 -
DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
ENVIRONMENT & FOREST
remote places, important plantation and natural forest areas to facilitate their protection,
management and harvesting including 200 km semi-permanent bamboo extraction link
roads. Besides this, existing roads/paths totaling about 110 KM in all will also required
to be maintained and improved. The proposed expenditure under the sub-scheme for
XIth Five Year Plan is Rs 20.00 lakhs and Annual Plan 2007 – 2008 is Rs 4.00 lakhs.
BUILDINGS
The objectives of this sub-scheme is to make provision for accommodation (both
office & residential) to officers & staff. Besides this it will provide for maintenance of
existing assets which are about 900 buildings including 51 nos. of Forest Rest Houses.
The provision of amenities to staff & labour like drinking water, pit latrines,
electrification, etc are also being provided under this scheme. The proposed expenditure
under the sub-scheme for XI th Five Year Plan is Rs 64.00 lakhs and Annual Plan for
2007 – 2008 is Rs 13.00 lakhs.
The proposed expenditure under the entire scheme for XIth Five Year Plan is Rs
84.00 lakhs and Annual Plan for 2007 – 2008 is Rs 17.00 lakhs.
5. FOREST CONSERVATION AND DEVELOPMENT (FOREST
PROTECTION)
Forest is a biological entity and a renewable resource subject to damages from
various factors namely fire, encroachment, illicit cutting/removal of forest produce,
faulty land use practices (shifting cultivation).etc. These factors are prevalent in the
State with significant extent thereby degrading and depleting the forest resources much
to the detriment to its fragile geology, environmental stability and ecological balance
ultimately reducing the productivity of land. With the increasing population both human
& livestock and demand for wood and other forest produce which is far beyond the
sustainable supplies of the shrinking forest cover, protection of forest becoming more
challenging. The organisation & staff is not adequately equipped at present and is
proposed to be strengthened during the plan period so that they can protect effectively
the open forest wealth in the State from such damages.
During the XIth Five Year Plan, it is proposed to have at least one mobile squad
to be constituted out of available staff equipped with transport and communication in
each circle to check and prevent illegal activities in the forest areas. It is also proposed
to equip all division headquarters, important Range headquarters and forest check
gates/beat staff with wireless sets so that they can communicate with each other in case
of need/emergency arising out of any illegal activity in the forest. Beside this the
existing forest checkgates will be strengthened, new checkgates at strategic locations
will be established and 1 storage depot for storing harvested/seized forest produce in
each Division will be established. Boats and out board motor engines will also be
provided wheresoever required. It should be appreciated that open wealth like forests
worth crores of rupees will not be safe unless forest protection staffs are well equipped
to discharge their duties effectively.
Proposed outlay for XIth Five Year Plan is Rs 820.00 lakhs and Annual Plan for
2007-2008 is Rs 45.00 lakh.
6. AFFORESTATION
The main objectives of the scheme is to augment the available supply of
fuelwood, timber, non-timber forest produces like canes, fruit, oil seeds, etc. Due to
increasing population of both human and livestock demand and pressure on the existing
forests for wood and wood products is increasing day by day, which at present is beyond
sustainable supplies available from the existing poor forests. As per the Forest Survey of

- 185 -
DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
ENVIRONMENT & FOREST
India, ‘The State of Forest Report 1995’ the forests in the State have an estimated
Woodstock of 35m 3 per ha. which is the lowest among the all North-Eastern States.
Thus there is considerable potential for increasing the productivity (economic yield)
from the degraded forests.
Hence, to augment wood resources by undertaking rehabilitation and regeneration
programme over wasteland and degraded areas, a three pronged afforestation
programme is proposed for the XIth plan. The following three sub-schemes are proposed
to be taken up which would also include bamboo plantation of commercial species :
(i) Regeneration of degraded Forest
(ii) Rehabilitation of Jhumlands
(iii) Green Mizoram Programme
The proposed outlay during the XIth plan is Rs 100.00 lakhs and Annual Plan for
2007-2008 is Rs. 20.00 lakhs.
7. FOREST UTILIZATION
The objective of the scheme is to provide for marking, removal/sale of
dead/dying/thinning yields from plantation areas or from areas diverted fro non-forestry
purposes (development projects).
National Forest Policy 1988 clearly says that forests should not be looked upon
as a source of revenue. They are National asset to be protected and enhanced for the well
being of the people and the Nation considering their contribution in maintaining
essential ecological processes and life support systems.
There is very limited scope for commercial felling of trees in Mizoram because
of very poor stock in its forests. However, bamboos whose stock is sufficient are already
being harvested contributing revenue to the state exchequer. The demand of Forest
produce is mainly for domestic consumption and will be regulated keeping the
Silvicultural consideration in view. However silvicultural thinning’s in old plantation
areas is envisaged to be done by the Departmental which will also earn some revenue to
the state. If such Silvicultural operations in forest crops are not done timely, it will result
in poor growth and value from the final yield from the area. The main activities under
the scheme will include thinning of older plantations, provision of motorized boats for
supervision of harvesting works and felling necessitated because of diversion of forest
areas to non-forest purposes for development projects (road, hydel projects etc.) and
procurement of logging tools and equipment.
The proposed outlay for the XIth Plan is Rs.50.00 lakh and for Annual Plan
2007-08 is Rs.10.00 lakh.
8. EXTENSION & TRAINING
Forestry is a technical subject, and hence a Forester has to be properly trained
to be able to do his job well. He has also to be a good public relation man to
communicate with common people to educate and make them aware about the
importance of preserving, protecting and developing forests and wildlife and their role in
caring for the same for maintaining the environmental equilibrium. Therefore training
and extension activities assume great significance to protect and develop an open and
living wealth like forests.
FORESTRY TRAINING (HUMAN RESOURCES DEVELOPMENT)
The objectives of the scheme is to provide induction training in Forestry, a
technical subject, to Forest Guards, Foresters, Forest Rangers and Assistant Conservator
of Forests and to hold refresher courses/periodic training both in the State and in

- 186 -
DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
ENVIRONMENT & FOREST
institutes outside the State so as to update their skills/knowledge and thus enable them to
discharge their responsibilities more effectively. To impart induction training to
Foresters& Forest Guards a Forestry Training School was established during 5 th Five
Year Plan at Bethlehem Aizawl. The following programmes are proposed for the XI th
Plan :-
(i) Induction training of Forest Guards & Foresters in the State.
(ii) Induction training of Forest Rangers & ACFs outside the State.
(iii) Holding refresher courses/periodic trainings in as well as outside the
State.
(iv) Improvement & Strengthening of the Forest Training School.
Proposed outlay for XIth Five Year Plan is Rs.39.00 lakh and Annual Plan
2007-08 is Rs.9.00 lakh.
EXTENSION
The objective of the scheme is to promote motivate and seek co-operation of
the public to protect existing forests, wildlife and plant more trees to meet their day to
day requirements of food, fuel, fodder, timber as well as to maintain the quality of
environment. Their attention is focused on above through suitable Audio Visual Media,
by publication of posters/pamphlets book etc., display of boards, organizing exhibitions
essay and drawing competitions, talks, films, establishment and maintenance of
recreational parks, observation of important days like Vanamahotsava, Wildlife week,
distribution of free seedlings for planting like individuals and organization on their
lands, etc. thereby seeking their participation in various afforestation and protection
programmes of the department. Proposed outlay for the XIth Plan is Rs.75.00 lakh and
Annual Plan 2007-08 is Rs.17.00 lakh.
9. ASSISTANCE TO POLLUTION CONTROL BOARD
With the transfer of Mizoram State Pollution control Board to the Environment
& Forests Department, adequate funds are not being provided by Planning Department
by way of Grant-in-aid to the Board. Even their establishment liabilities are not covered
by the meager amount. To make this an effective body for control and monitoring of
pollution & environmental degradation, a sum of Rs.75.00 lakh is proposed as Grand-inaid
to MSPCB during XIth Five Year Plan and Rs.15.00 lakh during the Annual Plan
2007-08.
10. PRESERVATION OF WILDLIFE
For the conservation and management of wildlife & bio-diversity in the State,
following protected areas as below have so far been constituted.
(Sq.Km)
1) Murlen National Park 200
2) Phawngpui National Park 50
3) Ngengpui Wildlife Sanctuary 110
4) Khawnglung Wildlife Sanctuary 35
5) Dampa Tiger Reserve 500
6) Palak Lake Sanctuary 15.50
7) Lengteng Wildlife Sanctuary 120
8) Thorangtlang Sanctuary 50
9) Tawi Wildlife Sanctuary 103
TOTAL AREA:- 1183.50
Besides this, a Mini Zoo at Aizawl and a small Deer Park at Thenzawl are also
being maintained.

DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
ENVIRONMENT & FOREST
Chief Wildlife Warden is the overall incharge of the State’s Wildlife assisted
by Wildlife Warden in the protected areas and Divisional Forest Officers in the
Territorial Divisions.
The importance of conserving wildlife and bio-diversity is increasing all over
realizing this, to oversee the management of wildlife in the State, the post of Chief
Wildlife Warden in the rank of Conservator of Forests was created during 1994-1995
and its office was created during 1996-1997 without any supporting staff. At present the
Wildlife Organisation is inadequate in respect of trained man-power, equipments and
facilities. Hence, to manage the protected areas properly in the line of scientific
management, Wildlife Wing organizational set up will need strengthening adequately.
The protected areas mentioned above will be maintained and provisions of
Wildlife (Protection) Act, 1972 enforced more seriously in the State. Protection and
Development works namely patrol paths, water holes, trace paths, etc. will be further
taken up and old one maintained.
The proposed outlay for XIth Five Year Plan is Rs.465.00 lakh and Annual
Plan 2007-08 is Rs. 107.00 lakh.
11. OTHER EXPENDITURE
Environment & Forests Department has more than 800 staff of uniform cadre.
Due to fund constraint uniforms were not provided to staff regularly. The situation has
led to serious erosion in discipline as well as morale of the staff as wearing of proper
uniform is essential for enforcement of rules and regulations. Proposed provision during
XIth Five Year Plan is Rs.25.00 lakh and Annual Plan for 2007-08 is Rs.5.00 lakh.
12. STATE MATCHING SHARE FOR IFPS
The Ministry of Environment & Forests has formulated a new scheme titled
“Integrated Forest Protection Scheme” for implementation during the 10 th Plan and
likely to be continued during the 11 th Plan. The scheme has since been approved by the
Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs. The main components of the scheme are:
Forest Fire Control Management
Infrastructure development which has two sub-components as
Working Plan Preparation/Survey Demarcation
Strengthening of infrastructure for Forest Protection.
The scheme is based on 90:10 sharing basis. Although the scheme was started
during the 10 th Plan, the State matching share under Plan shall be construed as New
Scheme for the XIth Five year Plan.
Proposed provision during XIth Five Year Plan is Rs.150.00 lakh and Annual
Plan for 2007-08 is Rs.40.00 lakh.
13. MAINTENANCE OF FOREST (FC) : More emphasis will be given on
Maintenance of Forest during 11 th Five Year plan. The Department proposed Rs.
2175.00 lakhs during 11 th Five Year Plan and Rs. 725.00 lakhs for the yuear 2007-08
under Finance Commission.

2. ADMINISTRATION : At present the Department has only three District Offices
at Aizawl, Lunglei and Saiha. Creation of District Offices at Champhai, Kolasib and
Mamit has been approved during Annual Plan 2006-2007 but not yet created till date.
The existing staff in three districts of Aizawl, Lunglei and Saiha are maintained under
Plan and are still to be continued during 11th Five Year Plan. It is proposed to create 5
District Offices at Champhai, Serchhip, Kolasib, Mamit, Lawngtlai with minimum
essential staff. A sum of Rs 186.83 lakhs is proposed during 11th Five Year Plan.
(1) Existing Staff at Aizawl, Lunglei and Saiha.
3. VITAL STATISTICS : Under this scheme, data of vital events births and deaths
are collected through 700 local Registrars in Urban and Rural areas. As per 2001
Census, there are707 inhabited villages and 159 urban wards. While 707 inhabited
villages fall under 543 registration centres, 159 urban wards fall under 155 wards
including Hospitals. Therefore 168 localities without separate Registrar of Births and
Deaths. Births and Deaths (RBD) Wing in the office of Directorate of Economics &
Statistics is functioning under this scheme with a minimum staff. To strengthen this
wing and to achieve 100% registration as desired by Registrar General of India,
Government of India. It is intended to widen the coverage by creating more units, to
undertake more affective inspection, conducting annual training for Registrars and
monitoring, to ensure regular flow of reports and returns and to check irregularities in
the registration system. Honorarium, expenses for training materials, TA/DA for annual
training will automatically increase to achieve 100% registration.
The importance of statistics an cause of deaths well recognised and these data
are in demand by healh planners, administrators and medicl professionals. The scheme
on medical certification of cause death MCCD formulated by the Registrar General,
India is a big step forward towards establishment of a system in the country for data or
cause of death. The scheme an Medical Certification of cause of death has been starting
in Mizoram. It success depends upon adequate and trained personnels with coding
appropriate diseases of cause of death as per International Statistical Classification of
Diseases (ICD). In this respect Government of India may sanction grant-in-aid for
creation of nosologist (Medical practitioner) under CSS.
The records and data on Civil Registration as well as Medical Certification of
cause of deaths are Computerizedd as per the softwares supplied by Registrar General
India.To have effective Registration and to achieve 100% registration during 11th Five
Year Plan, additional posts are proposed to be created. An outlay of Rs 194.42 lakhs is
proposed during 11th Five Years Plan and Rs. 49.37lakhs is proposed for continuing
schemes during Annual Plan 2007-08 for Vital Statistics.
4. NSS WING : National Sample Survey is conducted in the form of rounds every
year and the survey are designed and conducted by NSSO. Mizoram is participating in
the Socio-Economic Survey of NSS since 1978 on matching sample basis. Hundred
percent of expenditure on Central Sample is borne by Central Government and fifty
percent of expenditure on State Sample in the form of grant-in-aid, that is, seventy five
percent of total expenditure incurred on NSS is re-imbursed by Government of
Mizoram. Survey is a continous process and no new works are proposed.

ECONOMIC & STATISTICS
Though the field works of NSS State Sample are completed regularly, the data so
collected was not analysed and tabulated for severeal rounds due to non availability of
adequate material and manpower resources. A wealth of valuable information on various
topics is collected through NSS every year and not processing collected data is sheer
wastage of resources. The infrastructure at NSS Wing may be strengthened with
computer personnel to meet the requirement. The need for NSS Wing in terms of
hardware and software requirement and related user-level training requires no emphasis.
A sum of Rs. 48.87 lakhs is proposed during 11th Five Year Plan for
maintenance of existing staff and creation of new posts. A sum of Rs. 15.40 lakhs is
proposed for continuing schemes during Annual Plan 2007-08.
5. ESTIMATION OF STATE INCOME : Under this Scheme, the department is
estimating Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP) and Net State Domestic Product
(NSDP) of Mizoram as per methodologies given by National Account Division, Central
Statistical Organisation (CSO). Besides collecting necessary data from different
agencies various baseline surveys are undertaken to arrive at the aggregated data for
estimating State Income.
Apart from the on-going surveys, estimation of State Income necessarily
involves incorporating of all the newly emerging economic activities which are
considered to have significant contribution to the State’s economy. Fresh and new
surveys will also have to be conducted to update the data of new activities. Such surveys
necessary to provide data for estimating State income is proposed to be continued during
the 11th Five Year Plan for which an amount of Rs. 5.00 lakhs is provided.
Although estimation of State Domestic product is an important indicator of
economic growth highlighting the performance of 13 sectors of the economy every year
it is sad to mention that no separate post have been created till today under this scheme.
It is therefore porpose to create one post of Research Officer two post of Inspector of
Statistics and one post of Sub-Inspector of Statistics to be continously engaged under
this scheme. The financial implication is Rs. 5.00 lakhs during the 11th Five Year Plan.
A sum of Rs. 2.00 lakhs is proposed for survey during Annual Plan 2007-08.
6. DATA BANK : This Department being the apex body in the state
statistical system and the nodal agency for collecting various types of data the role of the
Department in terms of keeping a series of data, disseminating and bridging data gaps
have increase tremendously.
This department has been involved in various surveys and census, and collects
different types of data even from the village level through statistical agencies available
at every Rural Development Block Headquarters. However till doday, there is no
efficient system and procedure by which these data are maintained with proper record.
Statistical data is a vital input for decission making and timely availability of
Statistics is the essence of efficiency in the State Statistical System. Hence, to provide
easy and timely of statistical data to the administrators, enonomist and other users it is
proposed to set up a comprehensive data bank / database at the Directorate Office and
extended to district office in due course. Under this scheme different types of data or
official statistics will be maintained, necessary surveys and censuses will be conducted
to fill the data gaps.

8. CROP CUTTING EXPERIMENT :
For the purpose of estimating crop production within the State, it is felt that
conduct of Crop Cutting experiment in the State is of utmost importance as the present
system of collecting crop production have some loophole which results in over or
underestimation of the parameters. This is turn have direct effect on our State Income.
We proposed that crop cutting experiment should at least be conducted on five Principal
Crops during the 11th Plan period in phase manner. A sum of Rs. 11.00 lakhs is
proposed during 11th Five Year Plan 2007-12 and Rs. 1.50 lakhs is proposed during

Collection of Wholesale Prices and Retail Prices on Essential Commodities on
Weekly, Monthly and Quarterly basis and compilation, publication of the same and
submission to Government of India has been under taken by assigning certain staff in the
Directorate and District Offices has been under taken since long time back. But till now
this Department is unable to construct Consumer Price Index for Industrial Workers

Index for Agricultural Labourers (CPI-RL) and Consumer Price Index for urban non
manual employees (CPI-UNME) as desired by Government of India. So there seems to a
lot of tasks ahead of us to be fulfilled in the years to come. This draft plan aims at
achieving the target or during away with the long during the next Five Year Plan.
To be able to tackle the challenge this department will be required to have an
ambitious plan with human and administration infrastructure with a vision be achieved
at the close of the 11th Five Year Plan.
The Price and Market Intelligence Wing at the Directorate needs to be
strengthened by adding the present staff one Inspector of Statistics and one Sub-
Inspector of Statistics by 1 more Inspector of Statistics and 2 more Sub-Inspector of
Statistics to the present strength. Moreover, it is very much necessary to have one
Research Officer in the wing to cope with technical and methodoliged approaches and
aspects of the system and to supervise the over all works of the field enumerators. At the
same time, with the consequence of the inception of 5 new Revenue Districts in
Mizoram. This Department is required to have 5 more districts and in these new districts
there needs to be sufficient staff 1 (one) Inspector and 2 Sub-Inspector each for Price
and Market Intelligence tasks alone so new posts of 1 Inspector of Statistics and 2 posts
of Sub-Inspector of Statistics and proposed again. So, a sum of Rs. 10.00 lakhs is

continuing scheme during Annual Plan 2007-08.
10. COMPUTER SERVICES / INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY:
As this Department is dealing with all kinds of statistical data, full
Computerization of work is necessary. Manual tabulation and processing of data could
no longer sustain the workload, as such, it is emphasized to strengthen the Computer
Wing. At present, there is only one post of Computer Operator, It is therefore, proposed
to create more posts of Computer Operators during 11th Five Year Plan. It is also
proposed to purchase Software and Hardware, Computer of complete set for district
offices, UPS, Lap Top, Computer, Projector, Duplo Printer. A sum of Rs. 82.88 lakhs is
proposed during 11th Five Year Plan. A sum of Rs. 4.75 lakhs is proposed for

2007-08.
11. MINI PRESS :
The Department is running a small Printing Press for printing Booklets,
leaflets, Births and Deaths Certificates, various type of Forms Covers of different
publications. The existing Press is now outdated and cannot afford the demand and need
modern equipped equipped technology. The existing staff are inadequate and require
more staff. It is proposed to purchase Mini Offset during 11th Five Year Plan and a sum
of Rs. 18.00 lakhs is proposed under Mini Press. A sum of Rs. 3.61 lakhs is proposed for
continuing scheme during Annual Plan 2007-08.
12. TRAINING OF STATISTICAL PERSONNEL :

CHAKMA AUTONOMOUS DISTRICT COUNCIL
CHAKMA AUTONOMOUS DISTRICT COUNCIL
BRIEF INTRODUCTION OF CHAKMA AUTONOMOUS DISTRICT
COUNCIL: The Chakma Autonomous District Council was created in 1972
comprising of a portion of Chakma inhabited areas of the erstwhile PL-Regional
Council. It has an area of 1500 sq. Kms (approx.) with a population of 34528 souls, as
per 2001 census. The literacy rate of the area is 57% against the states literacy 88 %.
The Chakma Community is a civilized community of Indian
origin having a long historical background and rich cultural heritage. They are honest,
hardworking, peace loving and unpretentious.
The topography and the quality of soil of the area is suitable for
wet-rice cultivation and other cash-crops like oil-seeds, gingers, chilies, sesamum,
turmeric, black pepper, jatropa and various other horticultural plants. The area is also
endowed with numerious water bodies which is considered highly potential for
Fisciculture. Inspite of such high potentiality and Conducive conditions the area
remained tragically backward till date as road communication facilities is still not built
up and hardly any well-planned schemes/projects has so far been implemented in the
area. Amidst such innumerable inconveniences, considering the pitiable condition of the
people, the Chakma Autonomous District Council has been striving hard to bring about
a change in the lots of its people.
1. Estimate of resources for the 11 th Five Year Plan: It is indeed true that in
every planning the most vital factor is pre-estimation of the available resources. In
making planning for development of Chakma Autonomous District Council area for any
given period the main hindrance for the Council is very limited resource of its own as so
far hardly any infrastructure has been built up in the area for resource mobilization.
Hence, the Council is still dependent on financial support in the form of grant-in-aid. It
is equally true that once the infrastructure such as, Road Communication, Land
development, Irrigation, Forestry, Horticulture, Pisciculture, Food processing and other
Small Scale Industries, proper Survey of land and introduction of Border Trades, etc are
well developed, there will not be any dearth of Council’s own resource. Whatsoever the
limited resource of the Council may be, it is estimated that during the whole 11 th Five
Year Plan period, the Council will be able to generate a sum of Rs. 1,50,00,000/- as its
own resource/Revenue. The rest fund is to be made available in the form of grant-in-aid.
Autonomous District Council could complete the following infrastructures which
is considered for transfer under Non-Plan sector. Those are Chakma Autonomous
District Council Guest House at Kamalanagar, (2) Chakma House at Aizawl, (3) Bazar
Building at Kamalanagar, (4) Schools buildings, (5) ARO Office at Barapansury and
Longpuighat, (6) Teachers Inn at Kamalanagar and (7) Children Park at Kamalanagar.
2. Prioritization of resources : As stated in the introductory note, the most
abundant and valuable resource of the Council is development of its land, for cultivation
of food stuff and other cash crops, creation of forest in the de-graded land, development
of human resources by providing quality education, skill improvement , and opening of
scopesfor the youths in the field of sports and other Youth Welfare programmes,social
welfare and women welfare. It is note- worthy for implementing such development
programmes, building of infrastructures like office building, quarters, procurement of
necessary equipments and accessories, and above all creation of road connectivity is a
must.

3. Integration into global economy & power to private enterprises:
To cope up with the trends of globalization of economy and also more power to private
enterprises, development of road connectivity in the area should be considered as a top
agenda. At the same time, there should be concentrated effort for successful
implementation of programmes for increasing production of agro-based produces and
their value edition. At the same time necessary measures should be taken by introduction
of Border Trade with the neighboring countries, which will certainly open scope for
private enterprenures.
5. Grassroots level Planning : The Autonomous District Council itself is a grass
root level Local body. So this 11 th 5 year Plan, 2007-2012, if approved in to to shall
address the very vision of the constitution as endowed in the 73 rd and 74 th amendments.
However, to ensure addressing the very vision the Village Councils of the area are also
involved in preparation of this 5 year Plan.
6. Welfare of the SC’s & ST’s : It is a matter of great satisfaction that the
Planning Commission of India has given much stress for the Welfare of SC’s & ST’s.
The Tribal Sub-Plan for the ST’s had always been appreciated and fruitful. During 70s it
was known to all that there exist a Tribal Sub-Plan which meant solely for the undivided
Chhimtuipui District in the State of Mizoram. But it is unfortunate that during early 80s
the Tribal Sub-Plan in the state was stopped for reason not known to us. The State of
Mizoram although almost 100% ST state but the micro-minority ST’s who are mainly
concentrated in the three ADC areas and along the Indo-Bangla Border of Lunglei and
Mammit Districts, are still legging far behind from the majority Scheduled Tribes of the
Mizos. This was proved beyond doubts from the 2001 Census report where the
Lawngtlai District and the Saiha Districts was declared the most backward Districts in
the State. For the very reason a Special Development scheme under the banner of RSVY
is launched in Lawngtlai District and National Food for work Programme was launched
in Saiha District.
The guidelines for the formulation of 11 th 5 Year Plan which gave stress for the
Welfare of Scheduled Tribes in the way of introducing Tribal Sub-Plan is really
heartening for the people of the Chakma Autonomous District Council area and it
brought a ray of hopes towards our aspirations to get developed at par with the
mainstream population of Mizoram.
In our endeavor for the repaid development of the area during the 11 th Five year
Plan priority is given to Road, communication infrastructure, building and development
of Human Resources, Agriculture, Rural Development, Forest, Water supply and other
development Schemes are also in corporated on preference.
The Sector wise allocation on priority basis for the 11 th Five Year Plan 2007-
2012 and Draft Annual Plan 2007-2008 is as under: -

SCHOOL EDUCATION

During the 10 th Five Year Plan the Department had undergone a lot of financial
hardships due to severe fund constraints faced by the state Government. However, for
the coming 11 th Five Year Plan, the Department looked forward with great hope that
sufficient funds may be allocated to the department for smooth functioning.
Programmes to be continued under 11 th Five Year Plan :
1. Sarva Shiksha Abiyan (SSA) :- SSA was launched during early 10 th Plan
Period in which the pattern of State Share was 75:25. In the coming five year
Plan the share is likely to be in the ratio of 50:50 for which adequate fund is to be
provided for successful implementation in the State.
2. Continuing Education :- A Continuing Education Scheme meant for post
literacy under Adult Education was implemented with Central Assistance under
C.S.S during late 9 th Five Year Plan, carried over in the 10 th Five Year Plan is to
be taken over by State Government from 11 th Plan. Therefore, fund for the
purpose may be allocated.
At the same time, a massive Special Literacy Drive towards Western Belt
of the State bordering Bangladesh launched in the name of “Eradication of
Residual Illiteracy Project” (ERIP) needs to be continued for which additional
fund will be required.
3. Vocationalisation of Secondary Education :- In order to enhance
employability to the youths and promote job opportunity skill oriented
Vocational Education was introduced with Central Assistance. This scheme
needs to be continued with adequate provision of funds.
4. Absorption of C.S.S to State Sector :- There are a good number of incumbents
employed under Centrally Sponsored Scheme (CSS). These employees will be
needed to be carried over to new Five Year Plan, to be absorbed as State
liabilities.
5. Development in Infrastructure :- It is understood that the Department is having
no fund to bridge the urgently needed infrastructural gaps especially for
Secondary and Higher Secondary Schools for which at least a certain amount if
not adequate be provided.
New Schemes proposed during 11 th Five Year Plan :-
1) Establishment of Sainik School :- The Department intends to establish a
new Sainik School in the state as was already done by neighboring States, so as
to pave ways for youngsters for easier entrance in the field of defence corridors.
Land is readily available at Chhingchhip. A Detail Project Report (DPR)
amounting Rs. 70.00 Crores for infrastructural development had been prepared.
2) Establishment of Schools under need based such as Service Oriented
Schools, Technical Oriented School and Establishment of Physical Training
Centre for the Department is felt imperative for which a huge amount of funds
will be required.

SCHOOL EDUCATION
Draft Annual Plan 2007 – 2008 :-
The main thrust of the Department during the Annual Plan 2007-2008 will be
qualitative progress within and outside education system as well as capacity buildings.
Therefore, the programmes are set to achieve this goal as far as possible.
Due to inadequacy of fund in the past, proper training could not be imparted to
teachers particularly in secondary and above. It is observed that this affects the
efficiency as well as quality development. Therefore, it is decided to provide adequate
fund for the purpose so as to train the teachers to enhance their growth towards quality
education. This will in turn require engagement of substitute teachers for those who
underwent training.
Despite the fund received from DoNER Ministry for construction of a number of
school buildings, the condition of many school buildings which are out of touch by the
DoNER Ministry is far from satisfactory as the buildings are too old, crumpled and
dilapidated. Therefore, these schools are proposed to be constructed during this Annual
Plan in a phase manner.
The new perspective will be in favour of preparing students for self employment
and an organised sector of work force. It is expected to meet the sub-professional need
of various professions at secondary levels and above.
The proposed amount to be allocated to the department for the coming 11 th Five

HEALTH & FAMILY WELFARE
MEDICAL & PUBLIC HEALTH
SECTORAL APPROACH TO ELEVENTH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007-2012 AND
ANNUAL PLAN 2007-2008 IN RESPECT OF MEDICAL & PUBLIC HEALTH
INTRODUCTION
Mizoram is a far flung area of the country with limited access to the rest
of the country. It is sandwiched between Myanmar in the east and Bangladesh in the
west. Its population growth is one of the most favourable in India though there is lots
of influx of population from the east and west across the borders. The primary health
care facilities in the State are fairly good and it may be one of the best in the country,
but it still need lots of improvement.
APPROACH
Health is a fundamental and integral part of productive life,
development, quality of life and a major social investment. It is inter-sectoral and
involves individuals, families, communities, states and nation. It is a wide world social
goal.
With increasing of population, bad communications, infrastructure
requirements, the existing health care facilities in the State are not adequate to meet
the health care of the people especially to rural areas. Moreover, patients who require
surgical intervention, whether it is general surgery, gynae and obstetric, surgery, eye,
ENT including emergency life saving operation are sent mostly to Civil Hospital,
Aizawl the State Capital at a great distance from many villages in the interior.
Therefore, to provide health care facilities improvement of primary health care is
imperative. At present there are 351 Sub-Centres, 57 PHCs and 9 CHCs in the State
of Mizoram. Out of this only 11 PHCs and 6 CHCs the basic requirement like X-Ray
machine can be provided from the State Plan Budget. However, the minimum
requirement is proposed during 11 th Five Year Plan to function all the institutions as a
full fledge institutions.
MAIN HINDRANCES/DEFICIENCIES :
As nearly 65% of the Annual Plan Budget has to spent for salaries;
procurement of equipments which is the minimal requirement for functioning of PHCs
and CHCs could not be done from the State Plan Budget. This created a lots of
problem to the people in rural areas as they have to travel a great distances from
their early diagnoses.
Over and above, it may be reiterated that most of the staff quarters and
institutional building are voluntarily constructed by the villages ten year back, there
is hardly provision for reconstruction and renovation even for repairs. Thus, the
Department is really handicapped in providing fund even on emergency.
PROPOSAL
To provide the minimal requirement of the State in Health Care the
following proposal amounting Rs. 22,333.00 lakhs during 11th Five Year Plan and Rs.
2665.00 lakhs in the Annual Plan 2007 – 08.

HOSPITAL & MEDICAL EDUCATION (HEALTH)
HOSPITAL & MEDICAL EDUCATION
Introduction
Recently Government of Mizoram has approved bifurcation of Health &
Family Welfare into two Directorate viz. Hospital & Medical Education and Health
Services where all the district Hospitals including T.B. Hospital, College of Nursing
and School of Nursing are placed under the purview of Directorate of Hospital &
Medical Education. A separate budget is provided for the two Directorates.
Approach
Health is a fundamental and integral part of productive life, development,
quality of life and a major social investment. It is inter-sectoral and involves
individual, families, communities, state and nation. It is world wide social goal.
As Directorate of Hospital & Medical Education is a newly bifurcated
establishment, it requires a lot of infrastructures in providing quarters to all the staff
working in the District Hospitals. However, to facilitate the Hospitals into a full
fledged Hospital, adequate supply of equipment and machinery is essential to
provide Health Care to the patients who required surgical intervention, whether it is
general surgery, gynaecological surgery, eye, ENT including emergency life saving
operation. Therefore, to improve the Health Care facilities in all the District
Hospitals such as Civil Hospital Lunglei, Saiha, Kolasib, Champhai, Serchhip,
Mamit and Lawngtlai, sufficient provision is ear marked during 11 th Five Year Plan
2007-2012 as well as Annual Plan 2007-2008 for procurement of Hospital
equipments, medicines and creation of various disciplines of new posts so as to
avoid many patients who were referred outside the State for treatment as the
Government incurred financial loss for their medical treatment outside the State.
Moreover, on the basis of the inspection conducted by the Indian Nursing
Council, the existing School of Nursing is permitted for B.Sc. Nursing Programme
with intake of 30 seats where the Government of Mizoram has also approved the
proposal for upgrading the existing School of Nursing into College of Nursing.
Therefore, with a view to establish a full fledged College of Nursing, certain posts
are proposed during 11 th Five Year Plan 2007-2012 for engagement of qualified
teachers in a new established College of Nursing.
Therefore, to function this new established Directorate, it is expected to
provide adequate fund during 11 th Five Year Plan 2007-2012 so that functioning of
all District Hospitals will be effective.

DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
WATER SUPPLY & SANITATION
WATER SUPPLY & SANITATION (PHE)
Introduction:
The Public Health Engineering Department is dealing with Water
Supply and Sanitation in Rural and Urban areas. During the 10 th Five Year Plan, the main
activities of PHE Department were in the Water Supply sector with very limited activities
in Sanitation Sector. The outlay of 10 th Five Year Plan under State Plan was Rs. 12,333.00
lakh out of which Rs. 7,772.00 lakh was for Rural Sector, Rs. 3,373.00 lakh for Urban
Sector and Rs. 1,188.00 lakh for Other Sector. In the meantime, the outlay under CSS was
Rs. 40,940.00 lakh out of which Rs. 8,840.00 lakh was for Rural Sector; Rs.32,000.00 lakh
was for Urban Sector.
In the Rural Sector the Govt. of India has launched new initiatives
called BHARAT NIRMAN PROGRAMME in which all the Non-Covered (NC) and
Partially Covered (PC) habitations are to be provided with Water Supply fully by the year
2008-09. Provision of Low Cost Sanitation facilities in rural areas as per TOTAL
SANITATION CAMPAIGN PROGRAMME launched by Government of India is also one of the
major components.
In respect of Urban Sector, Urban Water Supply, Sewerages and
Sanitation and Solid Waste Management are the main components, which will be
implemented under various newly introduced Programmes like Jawaharlal Nehru National
Urban Renewal Mission(JNNURM), Urban Infrastructure Development Scheme for Small
and Medium Towns(UIDSSMT), Non-Lapsable Central Pool Resources(NLCPR) etc.
Over and above, it is also aimed at strengthening the existing
infrastructure of Public Health Engineering Department by creation of some new key
establishments.
Operation and Maintenance of Urban Water Supply is one of the
formidable task and fund-consuming programme. Public Health Engineering Department
has to invest about Rs 36.00 crore per annum for this purpose. During the 11 th Five Year
Plan period, feasibility study for Public Private Partnership (PPP) or Privatisation on O&M
shall be conducted and attempt shall be made to enter into PPP in some of our Urban
Water Supply Maintenance.
With all these aim in view, 11 th Five Year Plan is formulated on
Need-Based with due consideration on the volume of work that the Department will be
able to handle within a span of Five Years time. The total proposed outlay for the 11 th Five
Year Plan is therefore, Rs 38,046.00 lakh under State Sector.
The Annual Plan 2007-2008 is also incorporated in the 11 th Five

WATER SUPPLY & SANITATION
A. RURAL SECTOR:
1. Rural Water Supply:
a) Water Supply: Rural Water Supply comes under Bharat Nirman
Programme launched by Government of India. As per the Bharat Nirman
Programme, all the Non-Covered (NC) and Partially Covered (PC) habitations as per
2003 Habitation Survey are proposed to be put under Fully Covered (FC) status by
the year 2008-2009. The status of Rural Water Supply as per 2003 Habitation
Survey pertaining to Mizoram is as shown in the Table given below :
NC PC FC Total
297 430 159 886
Public Health Engineering Department prepared Action Plan as per
the requirement of the Bharat Nirman Programme in which the fund requirement for
coverage of Partially Covered and Non-Covered Habitations during 11 th Five Year
Plan period worked out to be Rs. 43,700.00 lakh. In the current funding pattern of
Rural Water Supply, the Government of India contribution is 50% under ARWSP
and 20% of ARWSP allocation for Swajaldhara Scheme, which is also funded by
Government of India. The State Government has to provide equal amount of
ARWSP allocation as a matching share.
However, the State Government will not be able to achieve the Bharat
Nirman Action Plan unless the funding pattern is revised to 25:75 between State
Government & Central Government for which proposal have been initiated from
North East States and Others hilly States of India.
Note : Swajaldhara is a reform initiative formulated by Government of India where
emphasis is made for public involvement in selection, planning and design,
implementation and partial capital cost contribution by villagers. Presently
90% of the capital cost is provided by Government of India and 10% by
Villagers in cash/kind/labour.
b) Water Quality Monitoring and Surveillance: Water Quality Monitoring and
Surveillance is of the support services under Rajiv Gandhi National Drinking Water
Mission (RGNDWM). The National Workshop held on 7-9 August, 1999 on Water
Quality Monitoring and Surveillance had recommended institutionalisation of
Drinking Water Quality and Surveillance System in the country a catchment area
approach which will be adopted by involving various grass root level, Educational
and Technical institutions. Under this scheme, training on the use of Field Testing
Kit will be given to the villagers and some educational and technical institutions so
that the public themselves will be able to test their water quality. A three-tier
structure of laboratory facilities namely Level-I (Village Level), Level-II (District
Level) and Level-III (State Level) will be set-up.
For implementation of this Programme, the Department has prepared Project
Report amounting to Rs.398.00 lakh and Government of India had allocated an
amount of Rs. 73.40 lakh during 2006-07. Fund needs to be provided from the State
Plan for upgrading the existing State Laboratory into State Referral Institute which
will serve as the training centre apart from water testing activities.

WATER SUPPLY & SANITATION
c) Sustainability and Development of Catchments Area: Most of the water supply
sources yields very low discharge due to the geographical as well as geological
conditions. In order to make our water sources sustainable, sustainability measures
by way of recharging water sources by construction of Water retaining structures or
catchments area development has become one of the most important activities due to
which Government of India also included this programme under Sub-mission.
Programme.
d) Operation and Maintenance: In respect of maintenance of rural water supply,
attempt is being made for entrusting the Operation and Maintenance activities to the
Community. However, it is still practically not possible to entrust 100% Operation
and Maintenance activities to the community due to various reasons like 1) Problem
in raising O&M fund 2) Lack of capable and technically qualified man–power. 3)
Lack of effective institutionalisation for effective O&M activities etc. The Public
Health Engineering Department therefore has to take active role in maintenance of
water supply asset by way of procurement of spare parts, arrangement of skill
personnel etc. The Department has therefore, to invest huge amount of fund towards
Operation and Maintenance.
Usually, 15% of ARWSP fund released by Government of India is
utilised for O&M of Rural Water Supply which amounts to approximately Rs 200
lakh per year.
e) Communication and Capacity Development through IEC activities:
Awareness creation among the masses on the impact of save drinking water supply
and save sanitation practices has become one of the priority sectors for successful
implementation of water supply and sanitation programme. In many cases water
supply and sanitation facilities are being provided but the consumers do not
appreciate and not utilise properly making the ultimate goal not fulfilled. It is
therefore, felt necessary that the public should be first educated to accept and
recognised the importance of having potable drinking water and safe sanitation
practices for up-liftment of their general health.
With this in view, a small cell called ‘Communication and
Capacity Development Unit’ in PHE Department was created under the assistance of
Govt of India where 100 % financial assistance will be provided for Three years, i.e
2006-07 to 2008-09 beyond which the expenditure will be shared between Central
and State at 75 : 25 respectively.
B. Rural Sanitation Programme (Total Sanitation Campaign):
1. Construction of Sanitary Unit in Educational institutions and providing
incentive to BPL families including Mass Awareness Campaign: Under Rural
Sanitation Programme, the Government of India had launched a reform initiative
called Total Sanitation Campaign (TSC) in which public involvement is the main
theme.
Detailed Project Report of Total Sanitation Campaign in all eight
Districts in Mizoram has been approved and implementation is in good progress.
However, the Project will be spilled over to 11 th Plan period. Moreover, due to the
revision to Unit Cost of sanitary latrine and inclusion of Solid and Liquid waste
management under the scope of the programme, the Project needs to be revised. The
total Project cost is to be shared between Government of India, State Government
and beneficiaries.

WATER SUPPLY & SANITATION
During the 11 th Five Year Plan, all the On-going/Spilled over
Projects will be completed and all partially covered and non-covered towns will also be
put under fully covered with Water Supply from various Programmes of Urban
Development Ministry, Government of India.
a) On-going Projects:
(i) Greater Aizawl Water Supply Scheme Phase-II: The Greater Aizawl
Water Supply Scheme Phase-II with a revised Project cost of Rs.113.47 crore is in
progress. From the whole Project, prioritised item amounting to Rs.96.08 crore only
will be taken up at present. Government of India, Ministry of DoNER will provide
Rs.69.12 crore out of which Rs.58.00 crore had so far been released leaving a
balance of Rs.11.12 crore yet to be released. The total State Government
contribution is Rs.18.98 crore out of which
Rs. 17.95 crore had so far been released leaving a balance of Rs.1.03 crore yet to be
released.
ii) Greater Champhai Water Supply Scheme: The Greater Champhai Water Supply
Scheme with an estimated cost of Rs.30.00 crore was submitted to Government of
India. However, the Project got finally, without technical justification, approved at
13.71 crore which would be funded from NLCPR. The Project is in progress and the
Government of India, through Ministry of DoNER funded Rs.13.53 crore which has
been fully released. As the approved Project cost is not able to complete the full
project, The State Government released Rs.2.00 crore and the project has been
commissioned with Raw Water in December 2006
As all the distribution systems are yet to be implemented, separate
Project Report needs to be prepared and got approved as Phase-II Project which will
be roughly Rs.7.00 crore. An amount of Rs 6.30 crore is provided under Central
Sector and Rs 0.70 crore is provided under State sector
2) New Projects:
During the 11 th Five Year Plan period all the remaining non-covered and partially
covered towns will be covered under various Government of India Programme like
JNNURM, UDISSMT, NLCPR etc. The followings are the towns to be covered during
11 th Five Year Plan.

A combined Project covering the above non-covered towns viz., Khawhai, Biate
and N.Vanlaiphai has been surveyed and the Detail Project Report is under preparation.
The total Project cost will be roughly Rs.40.00 crore. Considering the funding pattern
under JNNURM, UIDSSMT etc. where the cost sharing is usually 90:10 between
Government of India – State Government. A sum of Rs.36.00 crore is provided under
Central Sector and Rs. 4.00 crore under State Sector in the 11 th Five Year Plan.

WATER SUPPLY & SANITATION
Regarding the above, 9 Nos. of partially covered towns rough survey and
investigations have been carried out in 8 towns excluding Lawngtlai for which Detailed
Project Report amounting to Rs.38.86 crore have already been submitted to DoNER,
Government of India. Detail Survey and preparation of Detail Project Report in 8 towns
are yet to be done. The approximate fund requirement for water supply to these 9 town
will be roughly Rs.108.72 crore.
Besides these, Improvement and up-gradation of existing Aizawl Water Supply
Scheme Phase – I is very much required. The Scheme was commissioned in the year 1988
with the designed capacity of 10.2 mld. The Pumping Machineries are all out-lived and
require replacement, and even the distribution system requires extension as the Aizawl
City itself has now spread over a large areas. As this Aizawl Water Supply Scheme Phase
– I shall also run simultaneously even after commissioning of Aizawl Water Supply
Scheme PH – II, Detail Project Report for improvement amounting to Rs 48.28 crore was
prepared. It is now under consideration.
In addition, 4 Nos. of fully covered towns i.e Serchhip, Lunglei, Darlawn
and Sairang up gradation / renovation/improvement of the existing water supply scheme
i.e distribution system, pumping machineries, water sources etc are necessary and a token
provision is made during 11 th Five Year Plan under State Plan.
b) Operation and Maintenance:- Mizoram is wholly mountainous region with
almost all towns and cities situated on the top and hill slopes. As such, the entire major
water supply scheme is of pumping scheme with very high static head. As power supply is
not usually not very reliable most of our pumping schemes are operated with Diesel
Engines. Due to the above reason the O&M cost in Mizoram is comparably high as
compared to O&M cost in plain areas. Presently the annual O&M fund requirement for
maintenance of urban water supply scheme including wages and salaries, fuel cost, repair
of machineries etc. is Rs. 30.00 crore. The no. Of pumping scheme is growing further due
to commissioning of new projects, which result in increase in O&M fund requirement.
In order to make the urban water supply scheme self sustainable or at least reduce
the O&M cost feasibility study for privatisation/public private partnership (PPP) is being
under process within the Department. However, due to limitation of financial expert and
legal experts concrete decision could not yet be made.
In order to sort out this problem the Department require the assistance of Planning
Commission, Government of India to provide legal and financial expert in our feasibility
study.
B. URBAN SANITATION :
1. Sewerage and Sanitation:- There are no Sewerage facilities in all the Cities
and Towns of Mizoram. City Development Plan of Rs. 225.00 crore for Sewerage Scheme
in Aizawl City was prepared recently to be implemented under JNNURM during 11 th Five
Year Plan period.
It is also proposed to implement Sewerage System at Lunglei Town, which is
2 nd Capital of Mizoram. Detail survey and investigation and preparation of Detailed
Project Report are yet to be done as such a token provision under Central Sector and under
State Sector are provided during 11 th Plan.

WATER SUPPLY & SANITATION
2. Storm Drainage and Land-slip Protection:- Mizoram has heavy rainfall with an
average annual rainfall of 2500 mm which is mainly distributed during May to August.
Due to this intense rainfall compounded with steep hill slope and loose topsoil, natural
disaster due to landslide frequently occurs during monsoon period. Strom water
management and land-slip protection is one of the vital projects for Mizoram. City
Development Plan on Storm Water Drainage and landslip protection for an amount of Rs.
17,500 lakh have been prepared for Aizawl City which will be funded under JNNURM
during 11 th Five Year Plan in which 90% shall be the Government of India share and and
10% will be raised by State Government.
During the 11 th Plan period Storm Water Drainage and Landslip Protection
will also be taken up in other 7 Districts Headquarters viz. Lunglei, Lawngtlai, Saiha,
Serchhip, Champhai, Kolasib and Mamit.
3. Solid Waste Management: There is no systematic Solid Waste Management
System in all the city and towns of Mizoram, the present practice now adopted for Aizawl
City is only shifting of Solid Waste without any safe or scientific disposal system.
A City Development Plan on Solid Waste Management for Aizawl City was
formulated at an estimated cost of Rs. 65.00 crore to be taken up under JNNURM during
11 th Five Year Plan period.
It is also proposed to implement Solid Waste Management System in other 7
District Headquarters viz. Lunglei, Lawngtlai, Saiha, Serchhip, Champhai, Kolasib and
Mamit for which detail project report are yet be prepared.
C. OTHER SECTOR:
Direction and Administration:
Presently, the Department is headed by Chief Engineer, who is assisted by one
Additional Chief Engineer and one Superintending Engineer (Monitoring). There are four
Working Circle and thirteen Divisions. To cope up with the ever increasing work loads
due to rapid growth of population and increased in the demand, the Department is badly in
need of strengthening and up gradation.
Monitoring and Investigation Units: –
For effective Planning, Monitoring, Investigation and implementation of Projects,
accurate survey and investigation is a must especially in water supply works. For
achieving accurate results of investigation, scientific source finding techniques has to be
deployed using sophisticated instruments for studying and investigation of rainfall
characteristics, soil structures, ground water potential etc. Even with the availability of
accurate results of investigation, effective planning and implementation of any project
largely depends on the quality of monitoring. Realising this aspects, Government of India
insisted upon creation of Monitoring and Investigation unit in Public Health Engineering
Department.
Training :- Technology is developing very fast due to which Engineers and Scientist have
to continuously update their technical knowledge to keep themselves abreast of new
development.

POLICE HOUSING
The Eleventh Five Year Plan 2007 – 2012 : Police Department, Mizoram.
Introduction :
1. It may be mentioned that no proper sources of financial aid except Police Housing
Plan existed for construction of Residential & Administrative buildings of Mizoram Police.
Under Plan (Police Housing) a small amount of fund approximately amounting to Rs. 401.00
lakhs had yearly been provided for the last 10 Five Year Plans. Prior to this, lesser amount of
fund far below the above mentioned fund had been provided. With the help of the above said
grants, residential & administrative buildings had been constructed for upgradation of
Mizoram Police Housing.
2. It may further be stated that the Govt. of India, Ministry of Home Affairs, Bureau
of Police Research & Development (BPR&D) had fixed the target of satisfaction level for
providing of residential accommodation to Police all over India as follows :-
Target
1. Lower subordinate level 60% of total strength
2. Upper subordinate level 70% of total strength
3. Supervisory level 100% of total strength
3. It is regretted to mention that the total residential quarters provided so far to
Mizoram Police as on 1.8.2006 is very less in comparison with the prescribed scale of
BPR&D as indicated below :-
Detail Satisfaction level Present
Position
Shortfall
Lower subordinate level 70% 15.75% 54.25%
Upper subordinate level 60% 17.68% 42.32%
Supervisory level 100% 43.35% 56.65%
4. Since the total residential accommodation so far provided is far below the
prescribed satisfaction level of Govt. of India, it is proposed to take up construction of more
residential buildings during the next 11 th Five Year Plan. Some of the administrative
buildings such as office buildings and buildings for Police Stations and Out Posts are also in
need of new construction.
The Draft 11 th Five Year Plan 2007-12 and the Annual Plan 2007-08 is formulated
in such away as to achieve the prescribed satisfaction level by proposing an outlay of Rs.
1078.00 lakhs and Rs. 600.00 lakhs respectively.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE SCHEME
As the Department (Urban Development & Poverty Alleviation) was created by the
Government of Mizoram during the last part of 2006 – 2007. Hence there was no actual
expenditure for the last five years plan i.e. 10th. Plan. Then, the preparation of 11 th . Five
years plan cannot be based on the previous five years plan as well as the annual plan for the
year 2007 – 2008 has no base and merely proposed as per the present requirement.
There are 22 census towns in Mizoram which are likely to be felt under the umbrella
of Urban Development & Poverty Alleviation Department, and most of the proposed schemes
below other than MATCHING SHARE OF SJSRY and MATCHING SHARE OF JN-
NURM will dealt with those urban areas.

DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
URBAN DEV & POVERTY ALLEVIATION
1. CONSTRUCTION AND MAINTENANCE OF LINK ROAD WITHIN URBAN
AREA:
This is proposed as a new item. The scheme is to be utilised for construction as well as
maintenance of link roads within urban area including approach to Departmental land like,
Garbage Dumping Ground, Solid Waste Management Centre, Site offices, District offices
and staff quarters. Rs. 70.00 is proposed for construction of 70 kilometres of roads during the
11 th five year plan.
2. CONSTRUCTION AND MAINTENANCE OF PARKS AND RECREATION
CENTRE WITHIN URBAN AREA:
Aizawl city and other district headquarters had their own respective local parks under the
maintenance of concerned NGO at their locality without financial assistance from the
Government. It is, therefore, proposed to promote such parks as far as possible by giving
financial helps as and where necessary. Also every wards (locality) within urban area needs
some recreation places like small playfield, children play station etc. Such recreational places
may be required to construct in new or to maintain the existing one. Hence, Rs 45.00 lakhs is
proposed during the whole period of 11 th five plans for this Scheme. It is to be applied the
Public Private Partnership (PPP) method in this scheme, as such the requirement had also
decrease in year by year.
3
3. CONSTRUCTION OF STEPS, RETAINING WALL, FOOTPATH and fly over
WITHIN URBAN AREA :
City and towns in Mizoram are situated on spur of Hills which steep down to the gorges of
stream below / between the spurs. Roads and residential line go on the spurs in horizontal
lines. It is required to construct Steps and Footpath for vertical link between the adjacent
rows like staircases in multi-storied buildings. As the inhabitant areas are spur hills,
construction of Retaining wall is badly required to prevent some disaster like landslide etc. as
the landslide is phenomenon especially during the rainy season as it is known that the
Mizoram lies in the Monsoon region. So it is proposed to earmark Rs 47.00 lakhs for
construction during the 11 th five year plan
4. URBAN TRANSPORT AND PARKING LOT SYSTEM:
Traffic congestion is now a serious problem in the state capital. This is mainly due to
lack of Urban Transport Management and Parking Lot within the city. It is proposed to make
land available by means of direct land acquisition. Extension of road at every suitable
locations, projection of RCC slab over culverts will be taken up for purpose of parking. Rs
234.00 lakhs is earmark for the whole period of 11 th five year plan.
5. SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT
The Department had taken a new step to follow a modern method of waste
management technology and being constructed Solid Waste management Centre at Aizawl
with the help of grants under 12 th Finance Commission (ULB). As initiative, the Department
had installed a number of Garbage Trailers in various places within a city, collecting of
garbage from this trailer is being taken up with a system of privatisation basis. The detailed
process is in progress. A part from this, the Public Private Partnership (PPP) system is being
considered to be adopted within the middle part of 11 th plan period. Hence the expenditure
under this scheme should be considered as diminishing and proposed Rs 700.00 lakhs for the
whole period of 11 th five year plan.
6. PROVISION FOR URBAN FORESTRY:
this scheme is to be introduced in the 11 th plan. It is a well known perception that tree
planting in urban areas and protection of trees in and around the city is a long felt need. The

- 290 -
DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
URBAN DEV & POVERTY ALLEVIATION
GREEN MIZORAM programme under the auspices and brain child of the Hon’ble Chief
Minister of Mizoram, tree planting at road sides, Govt. Complex, School compounds are now
became an important state level programmes every year. The programme has diverse
importance for environmental protection, Pollution control, water conservation, protection of
land slides, beautification and wild life protection. It is proposed to make financial support to
this valuable programme. NGOs will be associated in the activities for planting of more trees,
up keep and protection of trees. The system of Public Private Partnership (PPP) may be
applied with cost effective. Rs 200.00 lakhs is proposed to be earmarked for the 11 th five
year plan and Rs 200.00 lakhs is earmark for the year 2007 – 2008 annual plan.
7. DOMESTIC WASTE DISPOSAL LINE:
The problem of drainage system is enormous. In the past experiences, landslides were cause
due to the absence of domestic waste disposal line. While allotting the house sites, there
might be no plan for providing perfect small drain for disposal of waste matter to be shared
by the householders. Normally, all the households disposed their wastewater from their
respective buildings to a short distance thereby dispersing and saturating the soil nearby. The
most effective way to prevent the problem will be to provide small drains to be shared by
four or five household to link the nearest big drain / side drain. During the 11 th five year plan,
it is proposed to construct 125 nos. of such small drain with allocation of Rs 125.00 lakhs.
8. PUBLIC UTILITY AT URBAN AREA:
The ideas is to create public assets and utilities like bus waiting shed, Shed for viewing
gallery, pay and use toilet, drinking water point at public places etc within the Aizawl City.
The system of Public Private Partnership (PPP) will be adopted and management of assets
will be handed over to Private/NGOs by sharing revenue earned from the assets and provide a
tiny amount for maintenances. Rs 150.00 lakhs is proposed at a diminishing rate for targeting
creation of 26 public utilities during the 11 th five year plan. Rs 74.00 is proposed for the year
2007 - 2008
9. BEAUTIFICATION OF CITIES AND TOWNS:
‘Cleanliness Week’ was always taken up during the past year especially for the purpose of
meeting all expenditure in connection with ‘Observance of Cleanliness Week’ every year.
With a formation of a separate of CLEAN MIZORAM SOCIETY, to pursue cleanliness
work, a need is felt to concentrate on beautification programme by the Department at urban
area. It is a fact that, no separate programme for beautification activities has been taken up
during the previous five year plans. Hence, to make the city and towns more attractive,
relaxing and decorating, it is proposed to take up various beautification works at important
public places and Rs 130.00 lakhs is earmarked for the whole period of 11 th five year plan.
10. DISASTER MANAGEMENT:
There is a policy to incorporate ‘Disaster Management Programme’ in the plan in every
Department under the State Government. In case there is any kind of disaster, the
Government Department is expected to make funds available in any form. It is difficult to
project specific requirements. It is proposed to spend funds for upkeep and maintenance of
machineries & equipments held by the Department like vehicles, etc. Rs 50.00 lakhs is
proposed during the whole period of 11 th five year plan to be in readiness when deployment
are required in tunes of disaster.
11. INFORMATION, EDUCATION AND COMMUNICATION:
It has been experienced that without having a proper information, education and
communication, most of the schemes and programmes cannot be implemented effectively.
Most of the scheme requires detailed examination, verification, education and communication
at various levels. This programme will help in the progress monitoring, evaluation etc. Not
only that, the Right to Information has been introduced in the state Government, which will

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 small allocation of plan fund

BRIEF DISCRIPTION OF THE SCHEME
1. CONSTRUCTION OF MINOR ROADS: This is proposed as a new item. The
scheme is to be utilised for construction of roads for approach to Departmental land like,
Garbage Dumping Ground, Solid Waste Managemnet Centre, Site offices, District offices
and staff quarters. Rs 130.00 is proposed for construction of 52 kilometres of road during
11 th five year plan and 12 Km for Annual Plan 2007 – 08 with an outlay of Rs 30.00
lakhs.
2. PARK AND RECREATION: The scheme is proposed as a new item. During the
10 th five year plan period. Rs 110.53 lakhs was spent for construction and maintenance of
Park at Aizawl and Lunglei. As of now, Lawibual Picnic spot at Aizawl and Lunglei
District park are available and enjoyed by the public as a place of recreational spot. Parks
at Kolasib and Lengpui (New Airport) are now under construction, and It is also intended
to create another parks at the remaining District Headquarters such as : Champhai,
Serchhip, Mamit.
Beside many towns and village already had their own respective local parks under
the maintenance of concerned NGO at their locality without financial assistance from the
Government. It sd, therefore, proposed to pronote such parks as far as possible by giving
financial helps as and where necessary. Hence, Rs 720.00 lakhs and Rs. 400.00 is
proposed during the whole period of 11 th five Plan and Annual Plan 2007-08 respectively.
3. Step, retaining wall & FOOTHPATH: This can be stated as a new scheme during
the 10 th plan period. It is taken up separately as ‘Step & Retaining Wall’ and ‘RCC
Footpath’. In the 11 th five year plan period, it is proposed to be clapped the two schemes
and rename as ‘Step, Retaining Wall and RCC Footpath’ as the technical specification and
nature of works are almost the same. It is proposed to earmark Rs 1208.00 lakhs for
construction of 35082m2 running metres during the 11 th five year plan Rs 290 lakhs is
provided for Annual Plan 2007-08.
4. Protection and Rehabilitation of land slide: The scheme is taken up as
‘Monsoon Damage Scheme’ during 10 th plan period. The name of this scheme is
proposed to rename as ‘protection and rehabilitation of land slide’, as it is more
appropriate term in solving urban problems. The scheme is very beneficial especially for
Aizawl City as landslides are the phenomenon during the rainy seasons. It is proposed to
allocate fund amounting to Rs 670.00 lakhs for the whole period of 11 th five year plan Rs
134.00 lakhs is provided for Annual Plan 2007-08.
5. Domestic waste disposal line: This is a fresh scheme to be taken up during the
11 th five year plan. The problem of drainage system is enormous. In the past experiences,
landslides were cause due to the absence of domestic waste disposal line. While allotting
house site, there might be no plan for providing perfect small drain for disposal of liquid
waste matter to be shared by the householders. Normally, all the households disposed
their waste water from their respective building to a short distance thereby dispersing and
saturating the soil nearby. The most effective way to prevent the problem will be to
provide small drains to be shared by four or five household to link the nearest big drain /
side drain. During the 11 th five year plan, it is proposed to construct 200 nos. of such
small drain with allocation of Rs 230.00 lakhs. Rs. 86.00 lakhs is proposed for 2007-08
Annual Plan.
6. Office building: The scheme is to be continued as a new item. Construction
Maintenance, renovation and extension of the existing office building as well as quarters
are always required due to the posting of additional staffs and officers at Directorate and

- 298 -
DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
URBAN DEV. (LAD)
sub-ordinate offices. Therefore, Rs 100.00 lakhs is proposed for the said works during the
11 th five year plan. Rs. 20.00 lakhs is proposed for Annual plan 2007 – 08 .
7. Beutification of cities and towns: The existing scheme known as ‘ Cleanliness
and Beautification of City’ was taken up during the 10 th plan especially for the purposed of
meeting all expenditure in connection with ‘ Observance of Cleanliness Week’ every year.
With a formation of a separate of CLEAN MIZORAM SOCIETY, to pursue
cleanliness work a need is felt to concentrate on the beautification programme by the
Department at Urban area. It is a fact that, no separate programme for beautification
activities has been taken up during the previous five year plans. Hence, to make the city
and towns more attractive, relaxing and decorating, it is proposed to take up various
beautification works at important public places and Rs 200.00 lakhs is earmarked for the
whole period of 11 th five year plan. Rs. 130.00 lakhs is proposed for 2007-08 for Annual
Plan.
8. MACHINERY & EQUIPMENT: There is a policy to incorporate ‘ Disaster
Management Programme’ in the plan in every Department under the State Government.
This will also be a fresh scheme. In case there is any kind of disaster, the Government
Department is expected to make funds available in any form. It is difficult to project
specific requirements. It is proposed to spend finds for upkeep and maintenance of
machineries & equipments held by the Department like vehicles, etc Rs 25.00 lakhs is
proposed during the whole period of 11 th five year plan to be in readiness of machines etc
when deployment are required in tunes of disaster. Rs. 40.00 lakhs is proposed for
Annual Plan 2007-08.
9. CLEAN MIZORAM: This is a continuing scheme to be considered as a new
scheme. CLEAN MIZORAM SOCIETY has been formed by the Government of Mizoram
to propagate the gospel of cleanliness in the whole of the state since the last part of 2004 –
2005. The programme is beneficial to impart awareness and instrumental in the cleanliness
drive. Cleanliness campaigns were held in many educational institutions, towns and
villages. During the 11 th plan it is proposed to hand over the activities of ‘Observation of
Cleanliness Week’ to the society which is organized every year by the Government. For
such variety of activities, Rs 195.00 lakhs is earmark for the whole period of 11 th plan.
During 2007-08, an outlay of Rs. 60.00 lakhs is proposed.
10. INFORMATION, EDUCATION AND COMMUNICATION: This is a fresh scheme
for 11 th five year plan. It has been experienced that without having a proper information,
education and communication, most of the schemes and programmes cannot be
implemented effectively. Most of the scheme requires detailed examination, verification,
education and communication at various levels. This scheme will help in the progress of
monitoring, evaluation etc. Not only that, the Right to Information has been introduced in
the state, which will require preparation of information to be supplied to the requestors. In
order to furnish those information, a separate cell for RTI is required to establish in the
Department. During the period of 11 th five year plan, Rs 70.00 lakhs is proposed for the
purposes mentioned above. Rs. 45.00 lakhs is proposed for Annual Plan 2007 – 08.
11. DIRECTION AND ADMINISTRATION: Rs 484.00 lakhs is proposed during the
period of 11 th five year plan under the requirement of Direction and Administration of the
Department. It is mainly utilise for the expenditure for Salary, Wages, Medical Treatment,

INFORMATION & PUBLIC RELATIONS
INFORMATION & PUBLIC RELATIONS
During the decades of insurgency, the Department was engaged in the Counterinsurgency
activities providing a link between the government and the public. Public
relation works was carried out extensively in various forms to wean the public specially the
youth away from militancy. The department is instrumental in winning the hearts and souls
of the people for a lasting peace and progress. This task was not easy. Peace, been having
achieved, development is making headway in various directions and the state is now poised
for celebration of twenty years of peace and progress in the State.
In the same vein as winning the hearts of the people for peace, ensuring public
participation and acknowledgement of the various opportunities provided by the many
benevolent development projects made by the government has to percolate down to the
grass root population. For this very important purpose of making peace stay in the land, a
good two way communication is essential. This department of Information & Public
Relations is a vital tool for acceleration, co-relation of peace and development, feed the
public and get feed back. Peace and the process of development is now the envy of visitors
from our neighbouring States. Thus well-informed people is the key note for building
confidence, satisfaction and trust in the government and a power point for doing away
ignorance and mis-conception.
INFRASTRUCTURE NECESSITY :
Construction of permanent assets in the form of re-inforced cement construction of
office buildings with a provision for Conference Hall, Auditorium and Technical room
would be most beneficial for carrying out the desired human contacts with rural residents.
This would provide meeting place and showing of visual publicity and interaction with
various groups of people and organisations.
The eight district headquaters are still bare of these facilities. It is desired and proposed to
kindly provide fund as a special project for making peace stay and bring economic
prosperity in the State. An estimate of Rs. 1920 lakh is submitted for construction of the
proposed buildings and staff quarters in the eight districts as enclosed.
Modernisation of equipment : Media supported with visual have tremendous impact for
dissemination of development news and events. As seeing is believing, capturing of
important projects for telecast through electronic media both local and Government channel
and through projector would bring the people and development works closer, would
register better participation and a sense of pride with ownership in the mind of the people.
This would be able to cover all corners of the villages.
These equipments would be housed in the proposed office building cumauditorium
or public meeting place for interaction and creation of awareness to various
projects. Mizoram being on the border state, quenching the thirst for information of the
people for active participation in government programmes would also enhance the security
and defence of the country.
Evince interest, Vigil and Transparency : In most project executions the people
at large and also of the specific project areas are often a silent spectator and show no
interest, whereas all the government projects are very much people oriented with sole
targets to bring conveniences and better means to the public. Foremost priority seems
creation of awareness, education and alert the people specially around the areas and the

- 300 -

INFORMATION & PUBLIC RELATIONS
districts and thereby evince sincere interest and vigilance to the projects against substandard
execution or manipulation by various agencies. For this, tools of information and
correct media exercises would bring the desired transparency and implementation of works.
The proposed outlay for the 11 th Five Year Plan and the Annual Plan are Rs.
1036.00 lakhs and Rs. 297.00 lakhs respectively . Schemewise write up and proposed
outlays are given below :
1. Capital outlay-during the 11 th 5 Year Plan the Department proposes construction of
the following buildings. The existing old Directorate building was constructed in 1975. It
has become old and overdue for re-construction. In addition to the earlier three Districts,
another five new Districts were created without any provision of additional fund. The
office buildings and staff quarters in these 3 old districts were constructed way back in
1973 in Assam type building. These buildings are in a dilapidated from and need reconstruction
while the five new districts have no infrastructure assets for office or staff
quarters. Hence, new buildings are the urgent needs to enable them to function properly.
Therefore, Rs. 157.00 lakhs is proposed for the 11 th Five year Plan while Rs. 50.00 lakhs is
earmarked for 2007-08.
Out of Rs.126 lakh, an amount of Rs.50 lakh is earmarked for the year, 2007-2008.
2. Production of Films :- To project the image of Mizoram state and its people as well
as the developmental projects and achievements of the State Government the Department
has been producing numbers of documentary films. This has been highly effective among
the rural and the grass root population who have no opportunity to witness the steps taken
by the Government in different areas beyond their reach. The documentary films to a high
degree remove the feeling of neglect and create sense of participation and pride as “ seeing
is believing”.
In addition to this, the Information & Public Relations Department has been
doing Live Telecast of the Assembly Sessions since 1994 and send copies of the visuals to
interior places where Live Telecast is not possible. To intensify introduction and improve
the standard and quality and to cope with the needs and demands of the day, better
equipment and technical know-how are required. Hence the above proposal is made for
improvement and modernisation of production of film with modern technique. For which
Rs. 59.00 lakhs is proposed during 11 th Five year Plan while Rs. 10.00 lakhs is earmarked
for 2007 – 08.
It is proposed that an amount of Rs.59.00 lakhs may be provided during the 11 th
Five Year Plan. Out of which Rs.10 lakh is earmarked for the year 2007-2008.
3. Public Exhibition of Films : With the growing menace of drug abuse and
social evils it has become necessary to intensify public exhibition of films shows to educate
the mass of the people. For procurement and purchase of films on National Integration,
Family Planning, Drug Abuse, and other educational films and purchase of 2 vehicles for
films shows in the interior villages, an amount of Rs.60.00 lakh is proposed for the entire
11 th Five Year Plan. Out of which Rs.10 lakh is earmarked for 2007-2008.
4. Others :
(a) Training in Mass Communication : With the advancement of new
techniques in Mass Communication, Public Relations and Journalism it is necessary for the

- 301 -

INFORMATION & PUBLIC RELATIONS
officers of this department to undergo training courses to catch up with modern technique
and better skills even as to enable them to function as trainners of the local media, an
amount of Rs.30.00 lakh is proposed out of which Rs.9 lakh is earmarked for the year
2007-2008.
(b) Research and Reference : The department is putting up Photo gallery and Book
gallery which serve as a valuable archive which facilitates researcher and students in their
research and studies and also provide documentary evidences and necessary information
for the Government as well.
This has to be up-graded and modernised. An amount of Rs.30.00 lakh is
proposed during the 11 th Five Year Plan out of which Rs.9 lakh is earmarked for the year
2007-2008.
5. Advertising and Visual Publicity :
It is the core of Publicity for building the image of the government. Public
Relations works through various Visual and print media agencies. Due to forbidding of
high tariff at the National level it is so far being almost impossible to project the image of
the state and its people in the National media which results in ignorance about the state and
its people to the rest of the country, thereby obstructing mutual understanding and stand on
the way of National unity and emotional integration.
Apart from creating the image of the state and its people, advertising and Visual
publicity is an extremely useful tool for comenting National Integration and communal
harmony. Hence, an amount of Rs.51.00 lakh is proposed during the 11 th Five Year Plan.
Out of which Rs.20 lakh is earmarked for the year 2007-2008.
6. Information Centre :
Altogether we have 6 (six) Information Centres in the Rural areas and 1 (one) Information
Centre in New Delhi.
The need for strengthening Information Centre in New Delhi is reflected in the
minutes of the meeting held under the Chairmanship of Shri Darshan Kumar, Adviser (SP),
with the Resident Commissioners of the North Eastern Region and Sikkim in his chamber
on 17 th June, 1996 at 11:30 AM. The extract of the minutes reads- ” The need for an
Information counter ” in each of the Resident Commissioner’s Office was also appreciated.
It was noted that since Chief Ministers, Ministers and Senior Officers of the State
Government are often visiting Delhi for attending the meetings they do need the reference
materials available at the State Houses. Central Government officers also need reference
material from state Houses.
To strengthen and upgrade the Information centres it is proposed to set up data
base and Information Kiosk not only in the Delhi Information Centre but also in all the
Mizoram Houses in Mumbai, Kolkata, Vellore, Guwahati, Shillong and Silchar. In addition
to this, it is also proposed to install Information Kiosk in the directorate, all districts
Information offices, Lengpui Airport and the existing six rural Information centres in
Mizoram.
An amount of Rs.140.00 lakh is proposed during the 11 th Five year Plan which
include rent for Information Centres and providing reading and Visual materials in the rural
Information Centres. An amount of Rs. 40 lakh is earmarked for the year 2007-2008.

INFORMATION & PUBLIC RELATIONS
7. Press Information Services :
The department is subscribing three services of PTI at Raj Bhawan, Chief Minister’s office
and the Directorate and another 3 services of UNI at the mentioned three offices. During
the 11th Five Year Plan we proposed to subscribe PTI services for all the eight district
offices to bring Mizoram in the news Map of India.
As a nodal department for media in the State, we have to subscribe all the
newspapers and Magazines in the State for monitoring and feed back of the reports. We
also have to subscribe National papers and Magazines which are instrumental for our daily
functioning.
As a part of creating the feeling of National Integration, Journalist tours from
Mizoram are necessary as the media is a powerful instrument for creating Communal
Harmony as well as Communal flare up.
Hence, an amount of Rs.83.00 lakh is proposed during the 11th Five Year Plan.
Out of which Rs.20 lakh is earmarked for the year 2007-2008.
8. Field Publicity : While the Government lays emphasis on rural development
and bringing democracy at the grass-root level, it is necessary that Field Publicity in all the
districts, sub-divisions and wherever we have Rural Information Centres and major
villages. Mizoram being sandwiched between Myanmar and Bangladesh with more than
700 Kms of International boundary it is extremely necessary to educate and sensitise the
people along the International border about the developmental projects and about India. For
this purpose maximum mobility is necessary to reach the interior most part of the State to
give them opportunity to see the works of the Government through visual media to give
them the feeling of ownership and belonging. This sentimental and emotional feeling can
create a human fencing along the International boundaries which are very much porous.
For this purpose mobile video Van equipt with LCD Projectors and Screens for attracting
and moulding the minds of the people in those far-flung areas are necessary.
Hence, an amount of Rs.71.00 lakh is proposed for the entire 11th Five Year
Plan. Out of which Rs. 35 lakh is earmarked for the year 2007-2008.
9. Songs and Drama : Cultural exchanges and interaction
among the youth of different communities from different States have been found highly
effective for bring about emotional integration which is the core of National Integration.
We have been receiving cultural troupes from various States and we are also sending
cultural troupes to other States for fostering mutual relations. Hence, an amount of
Rs.48.00 lakh is proposed for the entire 11th Five Year Plan. Out of which Rs.18 lakh is
earmarked for the year 2007-2008.
10. Photo Services : This department has been serving almost as an archive for
recording important functions and historical events. It covers the entire Government
functions including Video and Still coverage through out the State on all occasions. This
include processing like editing, multiplication of video tapes/disc, printing and distribution
of photographs to all media agencies both print and electronics media and keeping of
records. The equipments for these has to be modernized and upgraded to the latest new
techniques to catch up with the computer and internet Kiosk.
An amount of Rs.77.00 lakh is proposed for the entire 11th Five Year Plan. Out
of which Rs.20 lakh is earmarked for the year 2007-2008.

INFORMATION & PUBLIC RELATIONS
11. Publication : Mizoram being on top of literacy chart, reading materials are
in great demand which is still hightened by the introduction of the Right to Information
Act. Publication of brochures, leaflets and information about Mizoram served almost an
invitation to tourists to visit Mizoram from the mainland and abroad.
To enable to work effectively on this, we proposed an amount of Rs.94.00 lakh
for the entire 11th Five Year Plan. Out of which Rs.32 lakh is earmarked for the year 2007-
2008.
12. Community Radio and Television : The Department is continually
receiving heartening feed back from the rural and border areas regarding installation of
community listening sets and community viewing sets. It has been found that these
electronics sets are highly instrumental in deflecting foreign influences through their
signals particularly among the people of border areas. This will serve in bringing to home
against the feeling of geographical and communal isolation from the mainland. It is
therefore proposed to intensify to install community viewing and listening sets in the rural
areas to achieve the desired results. Hence, an amount of Rs.48.00 lakh is proposed for the
entire 11th Five Year Plan for purchase of community listening and viewing sets, technical
equipments and generators. Out of which Rs.4 lakh is earmarked for the year 2007-2008.
13. Cultural and Social activities : Most of the rural population have not had a chance to
see their own State capital not to speak of the national capital at New Delhi. In this regard,
the refrain cannot but be national integration. It is therefore found necessary to organise
Aizawl Dharsan and Bharat Dharsan for the people who do not afford to go to Delhi or
Aizawl. The department has been regularly sending Tribal representatives to witness
Republic Day celebration in New Delhi every year. The department is also requested by the
central Government to present Republic Day Tableaux in New Delhi accompanied by
cultural troupe. As such, Rs. 88.00 lakh is proposed for 11 th Five year Plan and Rs. 20.00
lakh is earmarked for 2007-08.

to annually handle the operation of Employment Exchange at the district headquarters. To
cope with the situation, computerization of Employment Exchanges at Aizawl, Lunglei and

As per the direction received from the Ministry of Social Justice and

existing ITI, Aizawl under the Prime Minister’s Economic Packages for North Eastern States
during 10 th Five Year Plan. Under the Scheme there are 38 posts already filled up on contract

7) IV Grade 7 posts -do-
8) Storekeeper 1 post Rs 4000-7000/-
TOTAL 38 posts
To start with the scheme, the Govt. of India has approved an introduction of
four trades each at Lunglei and Saiha and nine more new trades to the existing ITI, Aizawl
increasing the intake capacity of trainees by 192. Thus the total seating capacity becomes
nearly 660. The workload and the status of the ITI. Aizawl are also simultaneously enhanced
qualifying the ITI for being headed by Senior principal in the rank of Deputy Director.
Students are paid monthly stipend of Rs 500/- and annual book grant of Rs 1000/- each and
as also uniform. Yet there is no Assistant in the office of the Principal. Again as per Govt. of
India, DGE&T norm for every 8 units of Vocational Trades there should be one group
Instructors, whereas this ITI does not have even one single Group Instructor. Hence, the need
for 3 Group Instructors. Still more, presently Draughtsman Civil and Radio & TV [Mechanic]
trades are also functioning in the ITI. Both are of two units of two years duration. Yet there is
just one Instructor each for these two trades, These acute shortage severely hampers the
normal training stream and requires to be rectified urgently.
The existing ITI Bus is over 15 years old and has outlived its life-span.
With the heavy increase in the intake capacity of trainees it is eminent large chunk of the
entrants would be from the sub-urban areas of Aizawl City and the existing rickety bus is of
no use at all. In order to cope up the rust of trainees from Sihphir, Durtlang, Zemabawk,
Luangmual, Hlimen etc. two new buses are proposed as additional Bus and the other as a
replacement of the old one which can be fruitfully used for training purposes in the ITI.
The total outlay proposed for Craftsman training during 11 th Five Year Plan
2007-2012 is Rs 249.00 lakhs and total proposed outlay for Annual Plan 2007-08 for
maintenance of existing scheme is Rs 65.00 lakhs.

necessary to make aware of disabilities and old age for which campaigns / seminars /
meetings are proposed to be held at the State, District and Block Levels. Financial

under the overall supervision of one existing Joint Director. In addition to this, the Jt.
Director is in charge of the overall administration of the Department. As such, the existing Jt.

(c) Youth Development Centre :-
Youth Development Centre (formerly known as De-addiction-cum-
Rehabilitation Centre) is located at Sethawn on Aizawl to Silchar 54 National Highway,
about 70 km. From the State capital i.e. Aizawl.
Social Welfare Department had been running De-addiction-cum-
Rehabilitation Centre with its own State Plan Fund since 1990. With the coming up of a good
number of Non-Governmental Organizations (N.G.O.s) in the field to take up the primary
tasks of detoxification and rehabilitation of drug addicts and alcoholics, the Govt. of
Mizoram converted the Centre into an Aftercare Centre (Youth Development Centre). The
Youth Development Centre is proposed to cater to the needs of youths who are facing
unemployment problems in the State and also to act as State Referral Centre for recovered
addicts. In Mizoram, urbanization is growing at a much faster rate than the infrastructures,
and services to cope with it. A large populace of the rural villages migrating to the State
capital and a few big towns, which provide better facilities such as health services, education,
water supply, electricity, employment etc. But the employment opportunities are open only
for theose youth who have the required qualifications and skills. This in turn has created
frustration among the youth. Rising youth unemployment has been arousing increasing
concern in the State. It is, therefore, important to plan manpower generation programmes for
the youth who have been dropped out of schools and also for those who cannot make use of
the educational degrees they obtained from schools and colleges and even from the
Universities.
Because of this, youth problem, cases of ruined lives, crime, drug addiction,
lost hopes, social fears, reduced productivity, raised social expenditure and disdain for
authority are becoming today’s social scenario in Mizoram. The unemployed youth are easily
lured by the easy way of earning money through illegal means such as forcible collection of
fund in the name of donations etc. It is a fact that the problem of unemployment is one of the
causes of anti-social activities in all the Northeastern States. The inevitable result of this
practice would be armed rebellion where they can be much more effective with the weapons
and fear they would then wield. It is, therefore, important to plan programmes before it is too
late to lead the youth in the right way and at the same time provide self employment to them.
The proposed Youth Development Centre would reduce the problem of unemployment
among the educated youth by equipping them with skills for different types of employment. It
also aims at providing discipline to youth through physical conditioning and teamwork and to
make them law-abiding citizens. There is also a growing apprehension that unless corrective
measures are immediately initiated and steps taken in that direction, more youths who are
bereft of employment in Mizoram will become volatile and the society itself will soon be a
time bomb ticking away minutes towards the big explosion when the state will be infested
with armed insurgents like the states of Manipur, Assam, Meghalaya, Tripura and Nagaland.
The initial proposed trades are :- (i) Computer (ii) Electronics
(iii) Automobiles (iv) Carpentry
In addition to the above proposed trades, it is also proposed to provide basic
skill trainings to the trainees in Agriculture, Horticulture, Sericulture, Animal Husbandry and
Vetenary fields. As for the courses in Computer, it is planned to run the courses in
collaboration with DOEACC Centre, Aizawl, Mizoram. The proposal for inclusion of basic

skill trainings in the field of Agriculture, Horticulture, Sericulture and Animal Husbandry is

completion of the trainings, they would become productive and good citizens.

have an effective impact on the upliftment of women. So for the 11 th Five-Year Plan, the
ceiling of the grant is proposed to be enhanced. G.I.A. rules for the same will be revised or

Residential Institute & Training Centre (R.I.T.C.) for Women in Distress was
established by the Department of Social Welfare, Govt. of Mizoram in August 1984. The idea
behind the establishment of this institution is to rehabilitate women who are victims of
circumstances, who get involved in situations where they are socially and economically
deprived, discarded and handicapped by giving them a chance to improve their life situations

themselves and to be self-employment and security.
Objective :- The main objective of R.I.T.C. is to rehabilitate women in distress who are in
need of care, protection and training for self-reliant.
Target Group :- The target group of R.I.T.C. is of the following categories of women :-

increase the present strength with a capacity of 25 to 100 beneficiaries and by introducing the
following new trades, which are more modern, generating more income and high in demand

7. CHILD WELFARE
Children under the age of 18 yrs. constitute 40% of India’s population. In our
State, children under the age of 19 yrs. constitute 46.40% of Mizoram’s population as per
2001 Age Data Census Mizoram. Children represent not just the country’s future, but are
integral to securing the country’s present. Children should be looked as potential assets and
future and they are not expenditures but investments. Yet development indicators continue to
show slow progress towards securing their welfare and delivering their basic rights. Every
child of India is entitled to the rights and freedom enumerated in the Constitution of India and
the U.N. Convention on the Rights of the Child and the Protection of Child’s Right Act 2005,
all emphasized on the welfare of children. Child Budgeting has now taken an important issue
in the Central Govt. and expects the State to do likewise. The Govt. of India has directed the
State to set up State Commission for Protection of Child’d Rights vide D.O. No.3-2/2004-
CW Vol. III dt.27.1.2006.
For the functioning of this Commission of State Plan of Action for Children,
fund needs to be allocated.

proposes certain schemes, some of which are continued from the 10 th Five-Year Plan and
proposed to be strengthened where there were gaps in the actual deliverance of the services of
Child Welfare those are proposed to be continued during the 11 th Five-Year Plan.

India, being a signatory to the World Declaration (September 1990) in the

is mandatory that the State parties give priority for the cause of children. In compliance of the
above, the State Govt., besides its various activities, encourages N.G.O.s to come forward for
the all-round development of children. Social Welfare Department, therefore, co-ordinates
the efforts of Non-Governmental Organizations. Out of these NGOs, Mizoram State Council

meet the needs from the State’s resources.
Development of basic infrastructure in the said sector should also be given
priority.
(ii) Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment :-
The Scheme for Rehabilitation, Counseling and De-addiction Centre. Module
for treatment / counseling is only for 3 months. This is too short a period for effective
treatment.
The treatment / counseling period under the scheme should be at least 6
months.
(iii) Ministry of Tribal Affairs :-
Funds for Grant-in-Aid to NGOs, Vocational Training Centres, Counseling
and Allied Scheme, Eklavya Model residential School, Mobile Dispensary, are being
allocated State-wise as per the percentage of Schedules Tribe population in the State. Small
States with less population are allocated too less an amount of fund.

prisoners on an equal footing as recommended by Human Rights Commission and in line
with the modern concept of prison.
The existing jails in Mizoram are given below:

ADMINISTRATIVE TRAINING INSTITUTE
ADMINISTRATIVE TRAINING INSTITUTE
Administrative Training Institute ( ATI ), Aizawl, Mizoram was established
in 1983. It is the premier and the only institute of its kind in the State. It
imparts in-service training to almost all levels of Government employees under
Government of Mizoram on courses like Refresher / Orientation / Foundation /
Accounts Courses, Establishment & Administration, Financial Management,
Disciplinary Proceedings, Senioriry & Promotion, Pension Rules, Computer
Concepts, Mizo Short-Hand, RTI, etc. The Institute also conducts training on
Disaster Management for Government officials as well as for the public as part
of Government’s drive to generate public awareness on the subject.
The role of the Administrative Training Institute in capacity building of
the State Government machineries is, therefore, not only vital but centrepiece to
capacity building initiatives of the Government of Mizoram.
The total outlay proposed for 11 th Five Year Plan 2007 – 12 and Annual Plan
2007 – 08 are Rs. 300.00 lakhs and Rs. 100.00 lakhs respectively.
EXISTING POSITION OF ATI
At present, Administrative Training Institute is accommodated in a rented
building at Tuikhuahtlang, Aizawl. A new Administrative Training Institute
Complex is being constructed by NBCC at the new Capital Complex, Khatla,
Aizawl with the fund provided by the Ministry of Urban Development,
Government of India. The Complex is likely to be ready for occupation during
the current financial year 2006-2007.

(a) Director - 1 no.
(b) Joint Director - 1 no.
(c) Dy.Director(Admn) - 1 no.

often required to attend seminars, workshops and trainings at reputed institutions
outside the State.

DRAFT 11 TH FIVE YEAR PLAN 2007 – 2012 & ANNUAL PLAN 2007 – 08
ADMINISTRATIVE TRAINING INSTITUTE
1. Strengthening of ATI
The existing strength of officers and staff of ATI is felt inadequate to
carry out the various training programmes to the desired level. Moreover, it is
proposed to add new courses on the training schedule. Occupation of the new
ATI Complex will also definitely necessitate engagement of additional staff.
In view of the above, it is considered necessary to strengthen
the faculty members and staff accordingly during the the 11 th Plan 2007 – 12.
2. Strengthening of Disaster Management Cell
At present, Disaster Management Cell (DM Cell) is functioning with Central
Assistance. With the existing staff of 1 (one) Head Faculty, 1 (one) Research Officer
and 1 (one) Steno-III without any supporting staff, it is indeed difficult to run the
DM Cell smoothly and efficiently. It is, therefore, proposed to strengthen the DM
Cell by creating some posts during 11 th Fiv e Year Plan 2007 – 2012.
3. Establishment of ATI Hostel
As there is no Hostel Building in the new ATI Complex, it is considered
necessary to establish one Hostel Building to accommodate the trainees coming
from out-station places. It is expected that the site for Hostel Building will be
allotted to ATI by the Government near the new ATI Complex.
Moreover, creation of the some posts will be necessary for the Hostel Building
in due course.
4. Furnishing, etc of New ATI Complex
(1) The new ATI Complex consists of four blocks, viz., Administrative Block,
Lecture Halls (including Computer Labs, etc.), Guest Rooms and Auditorium. The
existing furniture and fixtures, and equipments of ATI are inadequate for the new ATI.
Besides, they have become old and worn-out, and are likely to be condemned
soon. So, new and additional furniture and fixtures like almirahs, bookcases,
tables, chairs, carpet, beds (for guest rooms), seats (for auditorium), etc., and
equipments like intercom, PA sets, computers, LCD projectors, V – Sat , etc.,
have to procured.
For furnishing of the New ATI building additional fund of Rs. 30.00 lakhs was
allocated during 2006-07 and the fund was fully utilized for furnishing of
Administrative Block, Training Halls and Conference Halls. However, it is required to
furnish the Auditorium, Guest Room and Library which can not be furnished during
2006-07. Therefore, requirement of fund under (13)-O.E. and (50)-O.C. for Annual
Plan 2007-08 has been increased from the normal size under this two sub-heads.
(2) Water Connection: This is to be executed by PHE Department under
supervision of ATI. Since the new ATI Complex is far-flung from PHE distribution
tank, more pipes and fittings than are usually necessary will be required.
(3) Electric Connection & Internal Wiring: The work will be executed by Power
& Electricity Department under supervision of ATI.
(4) Library : It is of utmost necessity to procure more books to cater to
the need of the faculties and the trainees. Moreover, the library room of the
new ATI has to be furnished with bookshelves, tables, chairs, etc.

ADMINISTRATIVE TRAINING INSTITUTE
5. Minor Works
In order to safeguard the new ATI Complex, construction of proper
fencing is a must. Moreover, construction of retaining wall, approach road and
parking area is also necessary.
6. Hiring charges of Vehicles
The new ATI Complex is a bit far-flung from the city proper. As such, one
Staff Bus is necessary to pick up and drop the staff, trainees etc. and for field visits.
The matter was pointed out in the Review Meeting of Plan Fund under the
Chairmanship of Commissioner, Planning/Finance Department held on 8 th Nov.,2006.
However, purchase of bus was not recommended since maintenance and engagement of
Driver and conductor cannot be afforded from the State Plan Fund. However, it was
advised to make arrangement on hiring basis of private bus instead of purchasing a new
one. Since the new building is ready for occupation and the Institute is being shifted
from private buildings, there will be no requirement of fund for hiring charges of
private building for which Rs. 4.15 lakhs was earmarked annually can be conveniently
utilized for hiring charges of private bus. Hence, requirement of fund under (13)-O.E.
has been increased and the sub-head (14)-Rents is deleted in the proposed Annual Plan
2007-08.
7. Capacity Building
Capacity building is one main objectives of ATI. The Institute intends
to send its faculty members to attend more training programmes within India
and abroad. At the same time, it is intended that more training programmes be
organized on specialized topics in the Institute by bringing in experts and
professionals from outside the State.
In view of the above consideration, the proposed outlay for the Eleventh
Five Year Plan 2007-2012 is Rs. 308.00 lakhs. Since the Administrative Training
Institute, Mizoram has been allocated Rs. 90.00 lakhs for the Annual Plan 2006-07,
the Annual Plan for 2007-08 has been increased by Rs. 100.00 lakhs ( i.e. about 10%
increase) as summarized under :-
