Backwardness Index Values and the center is selected within a GP with maximum SC,ST population or minority polpulation. These AWCs will also be used as SHG centre to conduct Mahila Sabhas and SHG meetings. Similarly ANM center will also be taken up in the selected GPs wherever ANM buildings are not there. II. EDUCATION SECTOR HIGH SCHOOLS/COLLEGES In the era of cut-throat competition in the private sector, there is a need to prepare the students with sufficient knowledge and skills. Though there are sufficient high schools in the district, the basic infrastructure is not able to cater to the requirements of the students. The Sarva Shikshya Abhiyan (SSA) takes cares of the infrastructure requirements of the schools up to Class-VIII. But, there is a critical gap for the high schools and the colleges for which there is no other source of funding. Most of these high schools and colleges require a good Library- cum-discussion hall and a laboratory hall for science experiments. It is proposed that the infrastructural development shall be done in convergence with the MP/MLA LADS. Four high schools/colleges in rural area and one high school/college in urban area will be taken up in each of the 12 Assembly Constituencies and two Parliament Constituencies in this phase of the BRGF. Annexure-8 III. FOCUSED ATTENTION TO TIRBAL AND BACKWARD AREAS Even though only 2.88% of the total population of the district is Scheduled Cast population but there are some tribal remote pockets which need focused attention. Improvement of physical infrastructure and livelihood support in these areas is being identified as critical gap. The process started in RSVY with construction of small irrigation structures in the form of diversion weir, bunds, AWCs and ANM cum AWCs. The Tumba Micro Project in Patrapur block is home of Soura, the PTG (Primitive Tribal Groups) is being identified as the most backward region and priority area for intervention. Similarly 31 Gps of soroda, dharakote, Saragada Blocks of the District, which are thickly populated by Kandha, Sura, Tribes and also declared as schedule area by GOI deserves priority under BRGF. It is proposed to allocate Rs 10 lacks for each GP in this area for dovetailing with TDA funds to provide better physical infrastructure and livelihood support under BRGF 2007-08. Annexure 5-6 8

For other backwards areas a Backwardness Index is being prepared based on % of SC,ST and BPL population, along with average distance of villages in a GP from nearest town and % of non-irrigated land for allocating GP wise funds under BRGF in future during Eleventh Plan period. At least three GPs have been identified from each Block area based of B.I. for 07-08. Annexure-7 IV. URBAN SECTOR Ganjam district has one municipality at Beharampur and 17 NACs located generally at block or tahsil headquarters. All these areas have emerged as growth centers of the district. People from adjoining rural areas depend on these urban areas for employment, market facility, health care , higher education and other basic needs. With the increasing trend towards urbanization, there has been tremendous pressure on the civic amenities of these urban zones. With inadequate funding from government schemes and also lack of sufficient resources to generate own funds, these urban areas have suffered a lot over the years in terms of lower quality of life and amenities. These urban areas are the socio-economic and cultural centers in their sphere of influence. The district plan identifies the need to improve the infrastructural amenities in these areas to enable a guided development. These areas will be emerging as the nodes for the overall development strategy for the district. The ripple effect from the development of these areas can be visible in other parts of the district as well. That is the reason why 25% of the Development Grant under BRGF has been allocated to the Urban Local Bodies for improving the road and civic amenities even though they account for only 18% of the population. 9
