Org Chart

Sundargarh District (Schedule area)
Bonai Sub-division (T.S.P. Area)

     Sundargarh district is situated in the North-western part of Odisha. The district is surrounded by Ranchi district, capital of Jharkhand state in the north. Raigarh district of Chhatishgarh state in the West and North West, Sambalpur and Anugul district in South and Singhbhum district in east.

     The district has an area of 9712 Sq.Km. situated in the latitude between 21 degree North and 35 degree North and 22 degree, 32 degree North and 83 degree 32'’East and 84 degree 32'’East longitude.

The population of the district is:

ST: 798481
SC: 138157
General: 636979
Total: 1573617

    Sundargarh district has been declared as scheduled area and Bonai Sub-division is one of the Sub-divisions and declared T.S.P. area of the district.

Location:

    The Bonai Integrated Tribal Development Project was grounded during the year 1974 with its head quarters at Bonaigarh Sadar (Sub-Dvnl/ Block Hd.qr.) in the district of Sundargarh. It was converted into Integrated Tribal Development Agency in the year 1979 being registered under the Societies Registration Act vide Registration No.15055/ 1899 of 1978-79. The office stands quite adjacent to Sub-Collector's office, Tehsil Office, Sub-Treasury Office and M.I. Office.

Area:

    The area of this ITDA (3356.64 sq.Kms) is co-terminus with the Bonai Revenue Sub-division consisting of 4 blocks namely, Bonaigarh, Gurundia, Lahunipara and Koira all being in rural area.It lies between 84 O 30' E and 25 O 25' E longitude and beween 21 O 35' N and 22 O 5' N latitude respectively and is flanked by the Districts of Deogarh and Angul in the south and South-east, the District of Keonjhar in the east and Singhbhum Disrtrict of Jharkhand in the north, and the Sub-Divisions of Panposh and Sundargarh Sadar in the west.

Topography:

    The south-east portion is covered with forest-clad hills intersected by gargoes and passes in the narrow valleys of river Brahmani and its tributaries. The area is criss-crossed by many hill streams. The east and west of Brahmani valley are flanked by high ranges principal among which are Mankadnacha (3639 ft.), Chhelitoka (3308 ft.) and Bichakani (2964 ft). There is extensive iron ore deposits in Bichakani hill which has acquired importance on account of its yield of millions of tons of iron ore for use in Rourkela Steel Plant (under Panposh Sub-Division) situated hardly at a distance of 100 kms from the Barsuan quarries. The total forest area constitutes 51% to the total ITDA area. There is good vegetative growth throughout the forest area.

Natural Resources:

a) Soil: The soil of this ITDA comes under the red soil group. It is of laterite origin. In some areas, it is highly black cotton. In most of the area, the terrain is rocky.

b) Minerals: There is an extensive iron ore deposit in Bichakani hill.

c) Climate: The climate of the project area is very peculiar characterised by a very hot dry summer and very cold in winter. The monsoon breaks during middle part of June and continues till end of October.

d) Rainfall: The rainfall with an annual average of 1200 mm is fairly uniform in the area. About 85% of the annual rainfall is received during the monsoon months from June to September; July experiencing usually the highest rainfall. There are occasional showers from February to May.

e) Temperature: The nights become cooler from October and in November; there is a drop in temperature both at day and at night. December is the coldest month of the year with the mean daily maximum temperature covering around 30 O Centigrade and the mean daily minimum temperature fluctuates between 10 O to 12 O Centigrade. The mercury thread sometime due to cold wave reaches as low as 40 C or 50 C.

f) Demographic Profile:

Human Resources: As per census data 1991 the total population of the following:

(i) Sundargarh District:

ST: 798481
SC: 188157
General: 636979
Total: 1573617

(ii) ITDA Project Area (Rural):
ST: 163142
SC: 17536
General: 62510
Total: 243188

Main tribes:

    The various tribes inhabiting the area are Bhuyan, Munda, Kisan, Oraon, Ganda, Mundari, Kolha, Kharia, Bhumij, Ho etc. The Bhuyans (Both pori or hill bhuyans and plain Bhuyans) are said to be the original inhabitants of the area while Kolha, Kisan, Munda, Oraon etc. are the migrants. Among the Bhuyan tribe, Pouri or hill Bhuyans form the majority.

Labour Force:

    The working age group in the project area constitutes about 47 % of the total population of the Sub-division.

5. Allocation of business:

    The ITDA is usually implementing two schemes namely (1) Income Generating Schemes, (2) Infrastructure Development Scheme, for socio-economic and all round development of the tribals of this ITDA area as per Annual action plan of the year.

a) Income Generating Schemes: This scheme is designed as sectoral programmes to create or generate income of the tribals. The basic schemes are:
(a) Bankable I.G.Schemes
(b) Non Bankable I.G. Schemes

    Under Bankable I.G. schemes as per the IRD pattern read with SGSY style and with the approved unit cost, schemes were contemplated by the NABARD guidelines. Most of the schemes are Bullock finance, Vegetable cultivation, Diesel pump sets, Dug wells, Dairy unit, Poultry unit, Net and Boat and ISB (Industry service and Business) schemes. In this scheme, subsidy and loan is fifty percent each- financed by Financial Institution. In short, individual families were assisted. However, this scheme is now not operational as Group Finance as per SGSY guideline has taken its place.

    Similarly under Non-bankable schemes, Agriculture and Horticulture, Soil Conservation, Pisciculture, Minor Irrigation, Training and Animal husbandry are implemented. The schemes are fully subsidized with maximum of Rs.10,000/- per family.

b) Infrastructure Development Scheme: Under this item, all developmental works such as construction of School and Hostel building, repair of educational institutions, CD work, Drinking water wells, and electrification of tribal bastis etc. which are incidental to IG schemes are taken up.

6. Duties to be performed to achieve the mission:

a) Agriculture:

    Agriculture is the primary means of livelihood of the tribal people of this area. 78% of the total workers depend solely on agriculture. They consider it more stable, independent and regular than the allied activities. In view of uneconomic holdings and undulating nature of terrains, productivity is very low. It is a mode of living than an income-earning proposition. The agricultural income of the tribal is not that secure due to the fact that their techniques are elementary. Agriculture is exposed to the vagaries of nature and the modern method of protecting crops against nature's caprices and destruction by insects, pests and wild animals are not known to them. Due to geographical condition and traditional method of cultivation, the average yield is low. Second crop is unthinkable without assured irrigation facility. In the tribal villages, the house-holds live spread apart in hamlets rendering contacts by extension workers difficult.

    The area has limited irrigation facilities. Many small perennial streams however flow which can be harnessed for Khariff as well as Rabi crops. During the years, attempts have been made to tap rain water through Water harvesting Structures, Diversion weirs but much remains to be done in this regard.

    The main crops grown are paddy in the plain land and millets, Nizer on the slopes. Mustard, Castor, til, pulses, maize and other vegetables are grown in small patches close to village habitations. Despite of extension efforts over the past years, the standard of agriculture in the area has not progressed to the desired extent. Generally, long duration varieties of crops are grown in the hope of better yields. PODU (Shifting Cultivation) is still practiced in hill slopes. Very small patches are cropped during Rabi. Although there has been comparatively more use of fertilizer, yet the intake is negligible.

Steps taken are:

(i) Developing irrigation facilities like WHS, Diversion Weirs, Lift Points etc.;
(ii) Providing education and training facilities to tribal farmers;
(iii) Rain-water management sponsoring early maturing high yielding varieties;
(iv) Introducing new crops and varieties suited to adverse weather conditions with high return;
(v) Adopting correct agronomical practices;
(vi) Supply of agril. equipments, Sprinklers etc.

b) Horticulture:

     The area has got wide prospects for vegetable cultivation. It is regarded as most profitable which will bring very attractive income for the tribals. This apart another useful programme in which the tribals will be interested is backyard plantation. As it is, the tribals grow jack-fruit, mango, papaya etc. in their backyard and it has been observed that the trees are looked after more or less properly. The quality of the trees and manure used by them however are not of the requisite standard. If better quality of planting materials could be made available to them coupled with appropriate extension measures, the tribal house holds will be capable of producing adequate quantities of fruits which would augment their income to a great extent.

     To support this Endeavour ITDA has encouraged Tribal youth in 35 GP's to raise G.P. level nurseries in recent past. The main Horticultural activities for STs are:

(i) Vegetable cultivation
(ii) Mushroom cultivation
(iii) Raising of Veg. Seedlings
(iv) Nursery and grafting of fruit and trees
(v) Plantation (Fruit bearing)
(vi) Off season Veg. Cultivation
(vii) Supply of minikits to the tribals

c) Irrigation:

     Bonai ITDA area has limited irrigation facilities. Although the rainfall is adequate for a fairly good khariff crop, its erratic distribution often renders the crop risky. The land surface being undulating, most of the rain water is lost as run off. The strategy, therefore, should go for rain water management besides other agronomical and crop-husbandry practices. Irrigation projects like W.H.S., Diversion weirs, Lift Points etc. are given priority besides extending assistance for Dug-wells, Pump sets, sprinklers etc. There is scope for improving the potential already available from Kuradhi Medium Irrigation Project having ayacut area of 8170 acres distributed over 22 villages of Lahunipara and Koira Blocks.

d) Sericulture:

    Tassar silk-worm rearing is a traditional occupation of a section of the tribals of this area. These tribal rearers are not in a position to harvest more than one crop of cocoons in a year due to poor financial condition. To overcome this difficulty standing on the way of silk-worm rearing, co-operativization of tassar tribal rearers, supply of quality silk-worm eggs departmentally and through established co-op. societies etc. are given priority to ensure that the tribals take up 2 to 3 crops in a year. To increase their income, they are imparted training in reeling, spinning and weaving. Marketing of Tassar cocoons, yarn and the products are taken care of by the Tassar Marketing Co-Op. Societies. ITDA has also extended finance (Revolving Fund) for strengthening these Co-Op. Societies run by the Sericulture Deptt.

e) Financial Institution:

    In addition to the district central co-operative Banks & CARD Bank, there are a good number of commercial Banks with rural branches which contribute in development and growth of income of tribals of the ITDA area. The different Branches are as follows:

(i) SBI, Bonaigarh
(ii) SBI, Tikayatpali
(iii) SBI, Jarda
(iv) SBI, Gurundia
(v) SBI, Lahunipara
(vi) UBI, Ulsurei
(vii) UBI, Barsuan
(viii) UBI, Tensa
(ix) SBI, Koira
(x) CBI, Bimlagarh
(xi) B.O.I., Mhuldiha
(xii) P.N.B., Banki
(xiii) C.B.I., Fuljhar
(xiv) BAGB, Sarsara
(xv) BAGB, Khuntgaon
(xvi) BAGB, Birkera

The benefit extended by the Govt. is reaching to the tribals as and when required.

f) Training of Tribal:

    Self employment to the educated unemployed tribal youth through different trainings such as Skill Development through Electrician and Electronics training, Training in Driving , Training in Computer, Bamboo Craft training, Stone-carving training, Dress-making training are taken up in the area to disseminate the knowledge and ideas in the rural areas.

g) Rural Water Supply and Sanitation:

    Water supply and sanitation is one of most important item of the schemes implemented in ITDA Project area. This ITDA is taking up drinking water supply in project area as part of basic amenities to tribals. Also drinking water supply at almost all educational Institutions which cater to the needs of the educational institutions has been taken up.

h) Communication:

    Communication facilities are extremely inadequate in Bonai ITDA area and such inadequacy is linked up with various other bottlenecks which stand in the way of socio-economic development of the tribals. Hence, its improvement has been given high priority.

i) Tribal Women:

    The Scheduled Tribe women in Bonai ITDA area constitute nearly 50 % of the total tribal population. They are the most neglected section of the society. These tribal women are burdened with multifarious responsibilities. Apart from being engaged in domestic activities like rearing of children, cooking etc., they play a major role in economic activities like Agril. activities, collection of forest produce including firewood and in marketing their surplus produce. But, they are mostly underfed and suffer from malnutrition. In the economic sphere, they are not treated as equal to men and always receive fewer wages than their male counterparts for the same type of work.

    For offering better standard of living and to generate substantial income, plan has been prepared and special emphasis has been given for tribal women.

j) Education:

    For rapid development of tribals, it is required that they inculcate a sense of urgency and involvement in various plans and programs of Govt. Educational development can ensure bringing a sizeable population to the mainstream of national consciousness. It has always been stressed that there should be expansion of educational facilities in tribal areas both by Education Deptt. as well as by the ST & SC Dev. Deptt.. Besides the institutions run by the Education Deptt., High Schools, Ashram Schools, Residential Sevashrams, Sevashram are run by the ST & SC Dev. Deptt. The students are provided with reading and writing materials, clothing and stipend to meet the expenses of food. These provisions have attracted a large no. of tribal boys and girls. The educational institutions run by the ST & SC Dev. Deptt. are as follows:
