Participatory Budgeting - Innovation in Planning and Budgeting by Government at National, State and Local Levels


Each member of parliament has to prepare a plan for his constituency for the next budget period and send it to the Government for inclusion in the budget for the coming year. He has to consider state level and national level projects and their relation to the development in his constituency. He has to show some light on the resources that will be available and resources that will be spent at national level and his constituency level.

MPs have to participate actively in the planning and budgeting process of the Government proactively.

This will help in decentralized planning and development, as the central government is forced to take into consideration the plans proposed by each MP in consultation with people in his constituency.

The above statement was made by Prof K.V.S.S. Narayana Rao in February 2016 during the following presentation.

Participatory Budgeting in Europe: Democracy and public governance


Yves Sintomer, Anja Röcke, Carsten Herzberg
Routledge, 10-Mar-2016 - Political Science - 268 pages


Can participatory budgeting help make public services really work for the public?
Incorporating a range of experiments in ten different countries, this book provides the first comprehensive analysis of participatory budgeting in Europe and the effect it has had on democracy, the modernization of local government, social justice, gender mainstreaming and sustainable development. By focussing on the first decade of European participatory budgeting and analysing the results and the challenges affecting the agenda today it provides a critical appraisal of the participatory model. Detailed comparisons of European cases expose similarities and differences between political cultures and offer a strong empirical basis to discuss the theories of deliberative and participatory democracy and reveal contradictory tendencies between political systems, public administrations and democratic practices.

Participatory Budgeting


Anwar Shah
World Bank Publications, 2007 - Business & Economics - 269 pages


In the past three or four decades, public finance theorists and practitioners have struggled to identify and design institutional arrangements to help close the gap between the preferences of voters and the mix of public services actually delivered. Participatory budgeting is potentially a good approach.

This book presents an authoritative guide to the principles and practice of participatory budgeting, providing a careful analysis of the potentials of participatory budgeting in strengthening inclusive and accountable governance as well as risks associated with interest group capture of participatory processes. For interested policy makers and practitioners, the book presents the "nuts and bolts" of participatory budgeting. It provides a regional survey of such practices worldwide and draws lessons from seven individual country case studies. A CD-ROM included with the book contains these seven country case studies on Bangladesh, India, the Philippines, Russia, South Africa, Thailand and the Ukraine.

Make Effort to increase Irrigation - Prevent Famines



Krishito naasti durbhiksham japato naasti paatakam
Mounena kalaho naasti naasti jaagarato bhayam

Famine does not appear due effort of Cultivation.

Sins disappear or melted way by reciting the name of God.

Quarrels will not happen if you maintain silence

Fear will not appear if you are careful because you avoid the problem situations.


But what is effort of cultivation.

Arranging for water for cultivation is part of cultivation. A farmer should not wait for rain this year for this year's cultivation. Chanakya in Artha shastra wrote about the importance of irrigation. Irrigation through wells and irrigation through tanks was mentioned by him. Farmers have to create storage capacity for water. They need to increase its capacity year after year. As population is expanding we need more and more irrigation. Modern technology has made dams possible. Have we built enough dams. Proper planning is necessary to plan dams and construct them to do good to the society. Farmers have to participate in dam planning and construction so that farmers who lose land are taken care of adequately by the farming community. Irrigation has to be the responsibility of farming community only. Government is only a representative of the farming community. It is not a separate agency to be blamed or exploited.


Do water farming. Conserve water. Learn new scientific knowledge.

What is science?

 Science provides knowledge that increases man's capacity to live comfortably and happily. There are God created processes in the universe and other processes which man can understand and live according to them.

Mudra Finance for Micro Units - Role of Bank Branches in India




2017

A recent report says India has 6 crore micro units. It employs total 11 crore person including owners of micro units. It contributes Rs. 11 lakh crores valued added.

We need to plan for 10 crore micro units supporting creation of new units at the rate of one crore per year for the next four years. This will create 4 crore persons new employment.

We can also plan for fresh employment to one crore persons every year in micro units by reserving loans for units that promise one extra job in their unit.

Thus in four to five years, India can plan to have 10 crore micro units employing 20 crore persons and contributing at least Rs.20 lakh crores to the value added in India.

The number on bank branches in India at the end of June 2016 is 1.30 lakhs.
(http://www.thehindubusinessline.com/economy/little-known-facts-about-indias-banking-network/article9381949.ece)


It means every branch on average has to service 800 micro units under Mudra finance scheme to provide finance to 10 crore micro units.
