Simple economic principles tell us that
investment begets investment and wealth creates wealth.
Investment of money alone, however, is seldom enough to
trigger this virtuous cycle, time, effort and substantial
planning are also critical elements. This working paper
captures the story of transformation of Manipur’s
electricity distribution sector which has laid the
foundation for a slow but sure transformation of a state
that has seen more than its share of troubled times. This
paper is about a World Bank-supported Government of
Manipur’s initiative to improve and institutionalize
efficient commercial, Operation and Maintenance (O&M),
project-related systems and processes, institutional
strengthening and creation of a robust review and monitoring
mechanism for the electricity distribution sector. The
result is that Manipur is, gradually but steadily, moving
forward on the road to socioeconomic development. |
