it is all about how Project Planning in India has been started. after going through the slides, one can be able to understand the project planning scenario after 1947 and even will be able to know different constraints and existing projects in India.
2. BRIEF ABOUT PROJECT
• Lets take an example of construction of a Building-
There are two phases in the construction of a building.
• 1st phase, there was no building prior to two years (where two years
assumed as construction schedule of the building)
• Now 2nd phase, after two years there is a residential building with all
the facilities and services
3. Contd…
• So the 1st phase was ‘Planning’ where planning for construction of
Building was done
• 2nd phase was the construction activities and the final completion of the
building
Thus from the above example, a project can be defined as
“All activities prior to completion of construction work shall be
combined and termed as Project”
4. Project planning after year-1947
• From 1947 to 2017, the Indian economy was premised on the concept of planning. This was carried
through the Five-Year Plans, developed, executed, and monitored by the Policy Commission (1951
- 2014) and the NITI Aayog (2014 - 2017).
• Jawaharlal Nehru, the 1st Prime Minister of India as the ex-officio Chairman, the commission has a
nominated Deputy Chairman, who holds the rank of a Cabinet Minister.
• Montek Singh Ahluwalia is the last Deputy Chairman of the Commission (resigned on 26 May
2014).
• The Eleventh Plan completed its term in March 2012 and the Twelfth Plan is currently underway.
• Prior to the Fourth Plan, the allocation of state resources was based on schematic patterns rather
than a transparent and objective mechanism, which led to the adoption of the Gadgil formula in
1969.
• The new government led by Narendra Modi, elected in 2014, has announced the dissolution of the
Planning Commission, and its replacement by a think tank called the NITI Aayog(an acronym for
National Institution for Transforming India)
6. Five year plan period
• From 1947-2017, Indian
economy was premised on the
concept of ‘Planning’
• This was carried through
the Five-Year Plans, developed,
executed, and monitored by
the Policy Commission (1951 -
2014) and the NITI Aayog (2014
- 2017).

7. 1st Five Year Plan
Launch
• Presented by Indian Prime Minister, Jawaharlal
Nehru
• Launched in 1951 & focused in development of
Primary sector
Budget
• The total budget was Rs. 2069 crores
• It was later rise by Rs. 2378 crores
Growth
• The growth rate was 2.1% GDP growth
annually
• The Net Domestic Product was went
up by from 3.6% to 15%
Investment sectors
Irrigation & energy (27.2%)
Agriculture & community (17.4%)
Transport & communication (24%)
Industry (8.4%)
Social service (16.64%)
Land rehabilitation (4.1%)
Service sector (2.5%)
8. • The total budget allocated in 2nd plan was Rs. 48 billion
• The 2nd plan focused on “Public Sector” & “rapid Industrialisation”
• The plan followed “Mahalanobis Model” which was an economic
development model developed by Indian Statistician Prasanta Chandra
Mahalanobis in 1953
• The plan attempted the optimal allocation of investment between
productive sector in order to maximise long run economy growth
• The target growth rate was 4.5% and actual growth was 4.27%
9. Developments under 2nd plan
In 1957 a talent search
and scholarship
program was begun to
find talented young
students to train for
work in nuclear power.
The Tata Institute of
Fundamental Research
and Atomic Energy
Commission (AEC)
was established as
research institutes.
Coal production was
increased. More
railway lines were
added in the north
east.
Hydroelectric power
projects and five steel
plants at Bhilai,
Durgapur, and
Rourkela were
established with the
help of Russia, Britain
and West Germany
respectively.

in Project Planning in India faced
by the government.

12. EXISTING PROJECTS IN
INDIA
There are no. of projects in India
which are currently being
progressed by government and
many NGO’s.
Neemuch Solar Power Plant, Madhya Pradesh
Yamuna Expressway, New Delhi
Solar Park, Gujrat
Gift City, Gujrat
Mumbai’s Eastern Freeway
Petrochemical Complex, Dahej
Narmada Canal Solar Project
Khasi Hill Community REDD+Project
13. Neemuch Solar Power Plant, Madhya
Pradesh
• Located at Diken in Neemuch
district of Madhya Pradesh
(MP), it is Asia’s largest solar
power plant. This 151 (DC)-
megawatt solar photovoltaic
power project by Wels pun
Energy, India’s largest private
solar project developers, is set
up on an 800-acre site. The
plant will address the power
needs of 6.24 lakh homes in MP
on completion.
14. Yamuna Expressway, Delhi
• The expressway which connects
New Delhi with Agra is India’s
longest motorway. This 165
kilometre, six-lane expressway was
opened in 2012 and has
dramatically reduced the travel time
between the two cities; it now takes
only a little over two hours to get
from Delhi to the Taj-Mahal. The
project was featured in the list of
world’s top 100 innovative
infrastructure projects, prepared by
KPMG.
15. Narmada Canal Solar Project
Gujarat’s canal-top solar project covers a 5.5 km section of the Narmada canal
with a photovoltaic grid. This 10 MW solar project is one of its kind in the
world. Located at Chandrasan village near Mehsana, the plant is designed to
generate 1.6 million units of electricity per year along with preventing water
from evaporation. The project will eliminate the need of land solar projects and
is expected to save two billion litres of water annually. Megha Engineering and
Infrastructure Limited will build the plant and maintain it for 25 years.
16. Khasi Hill Community REDD+Project
The Khasi Hill REDD+ Project is India’s first community based REDD+ programme
and will protect and restore 27,000 ha of cloud forest. The co-ordinator is
Community Forestry International.
The Khasi Hills Community REDD+ Project is situated in the East Khasi Hills
District of Meghalaya, India. It engages ten indigenous Khasi governments (hima)
with 62 villages. The area was chosen on the grounds of established Khasi
traditions of forest conservation and legal right for natural resource management.
17. Conclusion
• So through this Presentation, we have came across the various Five
Year Plan in India after Independence. Here we have came to know
about how Project Planning is taking place in the development of India.
The government is taking numbers of project for the benefit of the
country as well as to the citizen of India and in future more projects will
take place.
