rural development and poverty alleviation programmes are implemented on a decentralised basis, keeping in view the large geographical areas, the administrative requirements and the need to involve grassroots-level officials and the community in the implementation of the programmes. at the central level the ministry of rural areas & employment has been implementing these programmes. the ministry is responsible for the release of central share of funds, policy formulation, overall guidance, monitoring and evaluation of the programmes. at the state level prl secretary, rural development and the commissioner of rural development are overall incharge for implementation of the rural development programmes. at the district level, the programmes are implemented through the drdas (district rural development agencies). the governing body of drda includes members of parliament (mps), members of legislative assemblies (mlas), district level officials of development departments, bankers, ngo's and representatives of weaker sections of the society. the district collector used to be (but not always at present) the chairman of the governing board. the governing body at the district level provides guidance and directions to drda. the body in drda responsible for actual implementation is headed by an additional district collector.
