District Planning

Is the process of preparing an integrated plan for Local Government sector in a district taking into account the resources (natural, human and financial) available and covering the sectoral activities and schemes assigned to district level and below and those implemented through local Governments in a state.

The document that embodies this statement of resources and their allocation for various purposes is known as the district plan.

Three aspects of district plan. a. Plan of Rural local bodies (activities

assigned to them, national/state schemes, their own programmes.)
