The Odisha government expects to send the comprehensive document for the 12th Plan (2012-17) to the Centre by the end of June this year.

Ahead of submission of the document to the Centre, the department of planning & coordination has urged all administrative departments to submit their respective reports for compilation of the 12th Plan, listing their priorities and thrust areas, by May 31.

“We will be submitting the 12th Plan document to the Government of India by June-end. In this respect, we have asked all departments to furnish write-ups, detailing their major achievements during the 11th Plan (2007-12), review of existing schemes and major objectives and thrust areas for the 12th Plan,” said a senior official of department of planning & coordination.

The departments have been asked to give a brief account of major schemes with projected outlays and physical targets for the 12th Plan. Moreover, they have also been instructed to list out new schemes, if any, to be launched during this period with projected outlays and physical targets.

In addition to this, the departments are to mention about any special intervention conceived for the 12th Plan for furthering the economic growth, reduction of poverty, removal of regional imbalances, infrastructure development and social welfare.

The Annual Plan size for the state was pegged at Rs 17,250 crore after a recent meeting between Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik and deputy chairman of Planning Commission Montek Singh Ahluwalia.

Among the projects to be included under the 12th Plan include the Rs 10,000-crore capacity expansion plan proposed by state owned Odisha Power Generation Corporation (OPGC). The power generation utility aimed to add two 660 MW units to its 420 MW power station at Banharpalli near Jharsuguda. The expansion project is slated to be commissioned by 2016-17. The Manoharpur and dip side of Manoharpur coal blocks allocated to OPGC were to meet the coal requirement of the expansion plan.

Besides, the projects to be taken up under the Petroleum, Chemical and Petrochemical Investment Region (PCPIR) to be set up on 284.15 sq km (70,214 acres) of land spread over Jagatsinghpur and Kendrapara districts are likely to be included under 12th Plan. The PCPIR hub is expected to attract investments to the tune of Rs 2.74 lakh crore. Indian Oil Corporation Ltd (IOCL), the anchor tenant for the PCPIR hub, is building a 15 million tonne per annum (mtpa) refinery at an investment of Rs 55,000 crore.

The state government has also pitched for inclusion of National Waterway (NW)-5 taken up at a cost of Rs 4,210 crore under the 12th Plan. The inland water transport project is planned along the east coast canal and Brahmani-Kharsua river system.

The NW-5 will provide an alternative mode of transportation from coal mines and other industries of Odisha to Paradip, Dhamara and Haldia ports. The project was declared the NW-5 by the Government of India on November 25, 2008.
