Capacity to shelter animals improved from 25% to 61%
Coastal population protected by embankment improved from 37% to 50%
Roads to MPCS improved from 25% to 44%
Roads to villages improved from 45% to 90%
 
Andhra Pradesh

slide30. Deviations- Financial (Phase-I) Reasons
Quantum shift in technological aspects under EWDS.Technology Option based on latest integrated multi technology.
Estimates prepared in both States based on Standard Schedule of Rates for Civil Works prevalent during 2008-09, while most of works were awarded during 2012-2015. Rates of labour and materials revised several times between 2009 to 2016.
Minimum wages of skilled and unskilled workers as revised.
In AP, the awarded cost increased due to higher premium bids due to inflation, change in type of foundation based on soil condition, raising of plinth levels of MPCSs resulting in an extra expenditure. Plans of MPCS works revised in Additional Financing causing extra expenditure. Bids were received with high premium ranging from 3.96% to 29% causing financial implication
Shelter level equipment of Rs.31.60 cr and training to operationalize MPCSs was not provided in the sanctioned outlay; considered essential for MPCS.
Strict implementation of Environment & Social Management Framework (ESMF) as per World Bank requirement imposed financial burden on contractors. 30<br>
