Lesson
With strong justification and available financing in place, government-proposed adjustments to output components during implementation can help ensure a project's continued alignment with evolving government strategies. This can also deliver more outputs that contribute directly to achieving the project's outcome and generate greater social and economic benefits. In this case, following the government's new policy on poverty reduction, the provincial and county governments proposed to resurface all the 1,200 km roads connecting lower-level village roads.

Actively engaging key government agencies can provide the much-needed oversight and intervention to facilitate the timely and effective resolution of design and implementation issues emerging from project implementation, especially those that ADB will have extremely limited control over. The borrower and executing agencies coordinated with security forces to grant consultants’ permission to enter army-controlled areas, ensure their security and safety, and arrange basic facilities for them. Such facilitation minimized delay in preparatory work.

Lesson
India's policy on land acquisition needs an amendment in cases where sufficient land for improvement is not voluntarily available. This would allow for permission te be granted outside the scope of the policy, as necessary. As of 2022, the Prime Minister’s Rural Roads Program (PMGSY)is being implemented with no land acquisition. Where land is required, only voluntary-based possession is allowed. If sufficient land cannot be pooled on a voluntary basis, a geometric design is used as a compromise. However, these locations may become accident black spots.
