E-green Watch Outcome:
The Supreme Court in T. N. Godavarman case, had clearly directed on 2nd July 2009 that an independent system for concurrent monitoring and evaluation of the works implemented in the states utilizing the funds available will be evolved and implemented to ensure effective and proper utilization of funds. In compliance of these directions, the MoEF & CC, New Delhi has developed a portal called “e-Green Watch” which is an integrated and online system working in a completely transparent, reliable, and accountable way. The e-Green Watch portal aims to facilitate the automation of various processes involved in monitoring and evaluation of various projects being undertaken by the State CAMPA. It empowers all the administrators to monitor the progress made under various projects that are being carried out using the CAMPA funds.
During the year, regular trainings and hands on practice sessions were conducted for the Divisional Forest Officers and the technical personnel engaged for the management of information and data on the e-Green Watch portal
