As required under Article 243 ZD in Part IX A of the Constitution the AP DPC Act 2005 provides for constitution of District Planning Committees (DPC) in every district for under taking decentralized planning. The DPCs are required to consolidate the plans prepared by the Panchayats and Municipalities in the district, and, on this basis, to formulate a draft development plan for the district as a whole. Each DPC has the authority to take decisions regarding matters of common interest between the Panchayats and the Municipalities, including spatial planning, sharing of water and other physical and natural resources, as also the integrated development of infrastructure and environmental conservation in the districts concerned.
Statistics play a vital role in planning. Therefore both the local bodies as well as DPC should give high priority to creation & maintenance of database. Therefore there is a need for the DPC to arrange for collection and computerization of habitation wise information on Social Economic and gender statistics. The DPC has to integrate the data and develop District Level Indicators.
The sources of data are Census figures, BPL survey and other censuses conducted by the Department of Animal Husbandry, Department of Planning, Education and Health Departments. Much of this data has to be compiled on a village wise basis.
After collection and compilation of village level data, the DPC need to develop District Level Indicators on various parameters. The following guidelines are issued on collection and maintenance of database in the district.
Each Gram Panchayat should consolidate, maintain and own village level data, on the following para meters
- Demographic status of villagers, including population, births, deaths, morbidity, migration, marriages etc.
- Educational status of the villagers
- Land utilisation statistics
- Data on livestock and poultry
- Number of market outlets
- Employment status of the villagers
- Total number of households,
- Number of households below poverty line,
- Data on morbidity and disability,
- Number of literate persons,
- Information on Assets available in the village viz. number of factories, business establishments, bridges, declared forest area, orchards, roads etc.

- Whether the G.P is connected by Pucca road with Mandal
- Whether villages are electrified
- o. Distance from nearest agricultural marketing centers
- p. Number of commercial banks/rural Banks/co-op Bank
- The village level data compilation shall commence immediately and the same will be firmed up after validation from the concerned source agencies
- The village level registers should be developed and maintained through compilation of village level statistics to have a continuous flow of data
- The Gram Panchayat will take the basic responsibility of maintaining proper registers at their level
- The Chief Planning Officer (CPO) of the district is made responsible to ensure statistical quality and standard by providing necessary training to G.P. staff. The CPO shall also prescribe simple formats for collection of panchayat level data.
- The DPC shall conduct regular review and monitoring of the data contents, data collection and all the related aspects.
- With regard to upward movement of village level data for aggregation and computerization, there is no need to move all village level data upward at various levels like Panchayat, Mandal, District etc. Only those data will be moved upward which are required for planning at different levels.
The DPC shall develop database at district level based on available data from various sources collected by different Panchayats.
The DPC has to assess current level of development, monitor the trends and identify target areas and groups requiring special attention.
