| Summary: | Monitoring and evaluation (M&E) are
important performance management tools. They help in
ascertaining whether the policies and programs are meeting
the objectives. They can provide useful feedback information
for taking corrective actions in the design of policies and
programs. They are also the basis for accountability in the
use of program funds. The monitoring and evaluation of the
rural water supply programs in India is being done mainly
through periodic physical and financial progress reports,
visits of area officers and other government officials, and
evaluation studies and sample surveys conducted from time to
time. The main purpose of the monitoring and evaluation
activities is to find out whether programs are being
implemented as per their objectives, and to identify
bottlenecks, if any, in the implementation of the programs. |
