Lesson
Like other state electricity boards, ASEB experienced difficulties in obtaining state government budgetary support, which badly constrained its operations. Since Assam's financial condition is particularly serious, addressing financial issues upfront is key to successful reform. Investments under the multitranche finance facility (MFF) will include institutional development, ensuring a sustainable reform program.

Lesson
ASEB, with the support of the Government of Assam (GOA), took advance action to acquire land and clear other statutory hurdles, which eased implementation. In earlier ADB-assisted power sector projects, land acquisition and resettlement issues generally caused delays. Although ASEB was initially not fully conversant with ADB procedures, timely support from ADB and willingness of ASEB staff to adopt these practices helped implement the project. ASEB and GOA fully supported the project and retained key project management unit (PMU) staff.
