According to the project agreement, all schemes approved after 1/1/2007 are to be covered
under SWAP mode (Sector Wide Approach) for which beneficiaries are required to deposit
requisite beneficiary share and after the completion of the scheme operation and maintenance
of the scheme will be handed over to the concerned Gram Panchayat. The progress under this
project was slow on account of less/non-contribution of the beneficiary share. It is expected
that slow pace of work will now be picked up due to reduction of beneficiary share by World
Bank on 29-10-2008 whereby upper ceiling of household share of capital cost has been
reduced from Rs. 1500 to Rs. 800 for normal area villages and from Rs. 750 to Rs. 400 for
household in the difficult area villages i.e notified villages alongwith international border,
kandi area, bet area & water logged area and SC population will contribute only 50% of the
prescribed amount for general category and difficult area villages. On account of reduction of
beneficiary share under this project, 666 villages have deposited 100% beneficiary share, out
of which 387 villages have been commissioned. Government of India has advanced an
