Gajapati District is one of the most backward remote
tribal districts in the country. The development process
in the district is further hampered by the strong Maoist
movement. As a result, the basic governance and delivery
mechanism has suffered a lot leading to further
deterioration in the situation. The district is caught
in the vicious cycle of lack of development and Maoist
problem. Presently, the funds are being pumped in a
large manner into the district, but unless the basic
issue of delivery mechanism is addressed, the long term
development of the district will remain a dream under
these circumstances, it is observed that the
OTELP-Odisha Tribal Empowerment Livelihood Programme -
has evolved a model of governance which is working well
in the district, especially in the remote affected areas
where the traditional administrative machinery has
failed. |
