DPEP - Project Implementation Plan Uttar Pradesh (DPEP - III)

Abstract

From Background: In Uttar Pradesh, Basic Education Project supported by the World Bank is being implemented in 12 out of 83 districts. Another 15 districts were added for coverage under DPEP during the last year. Due to further subdivision of district boundaries the project is currently being implemented in 35 districts (17 BEP and 18 DPEP). While the UPBEP (UP Basic Education Project) is under implementation for the past six years, DPEP districts are in the third year of implementation. The total number of districts being 83 in the state, a large number of districts are still outside the purview of DPEP. Fcur more districts Bahraich, Shrawasti, Barabanki, and Rampur have been added for coverage under DPEP-II. The project for DPEP-ll expansion districts were prepared in accordance with the policies, guidelines and procedures prescribed under DPEP guidelines and Programme Manual.
