Maharashtra Class 'A' Cities Performance Improvement Plan Reports
January 2012
The preparation of these Performance Improvement Plans (PIP) for water supply and sanitation have been led by the Municipal Councils with support from the PAS Project through teams from All India Institute of Local Self Government (AIILSG), Mumbai and the CEPT University, Ahmedabad.
The preparation of PIPs have been done in response to a request from the Government of Maharashtra. The two focus areas of ‘making cities Open Defecation Free’ and ‘moving towards 24x7 water supply’ were suggested by the Chief Secretary, Government of Maharashtra in an inception meeting, for starting the Government of India’s Service Level Benchmarking (SLB) process in Maharashtra. In addition to that, the inherent theme for PIPs is improving coverage and service levels for un-served poor (slum dwellers) and improving financial sustainability. This PIP exercise uses the set of indicators given by the Govt. of India’s Service Level Benchmark Initiative as a baseline to assess past performance and identify priorities.
