Problems Causes

Time constraints?Limited financial resources?

What are the causes of the problem?

Scarcity of food Due to decrease in soil fertility and damage of crops bydisease, insects, fungus and natural calamity.

Scarcity of WaterLack of MIC and Water Harvesting Tank andmaintenance of existing MIC, farmers are unable toirrigate their crops during dry period.

Fodder problemDue to limited land holdings by distributing the landamong the families, so that farmers are unable to provideample fodder for the livestock.

Health problem Due to climate change, unhealthy life style and unawareabout health education

Untimely issuance of MGNREGA worksand delayed Payment of wages.

Lack of knowledge among the workers regardingprocedure.

Solutions

-To solve the problem of food scarcity, Food Security & Agriculture DevelopmentDepartment should improve the soil fertility by adopting new technology and shoulddistribute the HYV seeds along with organic fertilizer.

Step 2: Find out three most important problems and their causes

Step 3: Find out possible solutions for the three problems

Problems Causes

Which resource do you have themost problem with?

What are the causes of the problem?

1.Irrigation problem Lack of MIC and Water Harvesting Tank.

2.Road problem

Owing to kutccha road and frequent land slide atSeleley during rainy season the transportation cost ishigh due to which they sell their produces and buyingthe needed commodities in the village.Also the site is a Sinking Area.

3.Drinking water supply system Damage of pipeline due to construction of road andlack of maintenance of pipelines and leakage detection.

Solutions

1. To provide irrigation facility for cultivation of rice, cardamom and vegetables, FloodControl and Irrigation Department and MGNREGA (BAC) should construct the MIC andRain Water Harvesting Tank.

2. Provide the transportation facility to reduce the high transportation cost SPWD andRM&DD should pitch the road.

3. Solve the problem of Rural Drinking Water Supply System the Rural Management andDevelopment Department should maintain and repair the damage pipeline and newconnection of pipeline through Village Water and Sanitation Committee fund.

4. To check the problem caused by landslide, which usually occurs at Kewsa Busty along theBania Khola, Lower Zarrong along the Chutang Khola, Malitini busty along the Barkheykhola, Seleley along the Chutang Khola. The concerned Department like Flood Control andIrrigation Department should Convergence with SPWD also MGNREGA should constructthe Jhora Training Works.

What kind of development activities do you carry out as a whole community? Source Development Work, construction of MICs and Water Harvesting Tank,

improvement in dairy goatery piggery and poultry farming, cardamom re-plantation

Best practices / Success stories:

To provide pucca house to the poor people Department has been providing various housingscheme such as Mukhia Mantri AwasYojana,Rural Housing Scheme, Model VillageScheme,Indira AwasYojana,House Up gradation Scheme and GCI Sheet ,which is pioneersteps as we compare with other State.

Problems Causes

The number of Kutcha Houseis still 96 household.

Due to lack of land some of them are unable to construct the PuccaHouse.Some of them are Kutiadar of land lords, so that they are unable toconstruct the Pucca House.Some of them are really needy (poor) who are not able to construct thePucca House by their own efforts.

SolutionsTo make Kutcha House Free State, department should provide MMAY,IAY,Model Houseand House Up gradation Scheme to those who are really needy.To make a Poverty Free State by 2013, State Government should provide Land BankScheme to the Sukumbasi people. To prepare the beneficiary list of local Landless peoplePanchayat, Gram planning Forum and Land Revenue Department should play an importantrole.To make a programme success Land lord (Land owner) should provide Pucca DwellingHouse to Kutiadar for a time being while allotting the land through Land Bank Scheme.

Problems Causes

There are 25 left out householdwho have not constructed the safetoilet.

Some people haven’t constructed the toilets even theyreceived the financial support due to ignorance and lackof knowledge.

Some of them are newly constructed houses. Some of them are non local household who are not

eligible for construction of toilet under Total SanitationCampaign.

Blockage of Jhora and landslideproblem

Due to disposal of garbage into the Jhora and kholsa causesblockage of jhora and causes land slide when the sewage wateraccumulated at a single point.

SolutionsTo sustain the honor of ‘Nirmal Rajya Puraskar’ each and every individual should construct the toiletto make Sikkim: Open Defecation Free State. The concern Authority like RM&DD (BAC) andimplementing agency (Panchayat) should provide the financial support to construct the toilet throughTotal Sanitation Campaign.

To control the dispose of garbage into the jhora and kholsa, RM&DD should construct the garbagetank at village level and provide collection system to dispose at Bharikhola, Jorethang.

To make Sikkim a proper sanitize State, awareness programme should be organized by Health andFamily Welfare Department and BAC jointly in a yearly basis.

Best practices / Success stories:

During the last decades of 19th Century people had problem in transportation, information andcommunication, now villages are connected by road and footpath. To communicate theinformation due to availability mobile network it becomes simpler and easier.

Problems Causes

Kutcha road problemDue to Kutcha road transportation charge andtaxi fare is high.

Current status of virtual connectivity infrastructure

A) Virtual connectivity (mobile network)

Step 2: Figure out best practices, success stories, important problems and their causes

Village Development Action Plan – Barfung Zarrong GPU

93Rural Management and Development Department, Government of Sikkim

Footpath problemThe demand for construction of CC Footpath isnot considered by MGNREGA as compare withprevious days.

Problem of bridgeSome bridges are in bad condition due to oldand weak.

Land slide problemDue to improper drainage system landslideoccurs in the GPU.

SolutionsTo reduce the problem of transportation PWD and RM&DD should pitch and repair thekutcha road immediately.To control the problem of land slide, due to sewage, jhora and drainage, Jhora should bemaintain and constructed by SPWD and Irrigation and Flood Control Department.To connect one village to another village, CC Footpath should be constructed throughMGNREGA.

To connect the one village to another village, old and bad conditioned bridges should berepaired and construct by BAC and Road and bridges Department.
