receipts of the state government. The actual total capital receipts which stood at Rs.
5142.11 crores during 2017-18 is estimated to fall to Rs.3135.86 crores in 2018-19. This
fall in capital receipts is largely on account of less receipts from the internal debt. During
2019-20 (B.E) the anticipated capital receipts is peg at Rs. 4430.88 crores. Table No. 2.3
2.4.1 Under Public debt, the internal debt of the State government accounts for more than 99 per

expenditure in 2018-19 (R.E) is expected to fall to 42.69 per cent in 2019-20 (B.E). This
estimated fall in percentage spent on Salary & Wages despite an increase in absolute
amount spent on Salary & Wages is due to the higher growth of Revenue expenditure. As a
percentage of total expenditure on consolidated fund, Salary and Wages accounts for
31.22 per cent in 2018-19 (R.E) and 30.02 per cent in 2019-20 (B.E). Table No. 2.6

2.8.2 Capital Expenditure on Public Debt. Under Capital expenditure, the biggest challenges
that arise is the annual expenditure on repayment of Public Debt which is estimated to
increased from Rs.2866.19 crores in 2018-19 (R.E) to Rs.3986.99 crores in 2019-20 (B.E).

expenditure has increase from 60.63 per cent in 2018-19 (R.E) to 74.57 per cent in 2019-
20 (B.E). This management of Public Debt has assumed an alarming proportion as it has
consumed more than 60 per cent of Capital expenditure since 2012-13 thereby leaving
the remaining for distribution between physical development of the State and Loan and
Advances (Albeit, Loan and Advances accounting for less than one per cent of Capital
expenditure). Table No. 2.7
Department/Service wise Allocation of Fund.

Consolidated Fund. The next three Department/Services with the largest amount of
allocation in percentage are, Pension and Other Retirement bene its 11.14 per cent
followed by School Education 9.38 per cent, Civil Police 7.74 per cent. Table No. 2.8
Fiscal Position of the State.
2.10.1 Fiscal de icit is primarily monitored as a proportion of the GSDP therefore declining Fiscal
de icit may be an outcome of either an increase in nominal GSDP or a decline in absolute
Fiscal de icit or both. Since 2013-14, the State has managed to keep its iscal de icit within
the target of 3 per cent of GSDP set by Nagaland Fiscal responsibility and Budget
Management Act except 2018-19.With the GSDP estimated to increase from Rs.27283
crores in 2018-19 (Q.E) to Rs.30508 crores in 2019-20 (A.E) and the corresponding Fiscal
de icit estimated to fall from Rs.1333.36 crores to Rs.850.23 crores. The Fiscal de icit as a
percentage of GSDP is set to fall from a peak of 4.89 per cent in 2018-19 (R.E) to 2.79 per
cent in 2019-20 (B.E). This fall in iscal de icit can be attributed to both the case of
increased in GSDP and fall in absolute amount of Fiscal de icit. Given this, the State is again
set to achieve the Fiscal de icit target of 3 per cent of GSDP set by NFR&BM (Amendment)
Act 2011. Table No. 2.9

CHAPTER-3
AGRICULTURE & ALLIED

3.1 AGRICULTURE
3.1.1 Agriculture has traditionally been the mainstay of livelihood of the people of Nagaland
with more than 60 per cent of the population of the State engaged in Agricultural Activities
in one way or other ways. The topography of the State being hilly terrain, traditional
Jhum/Shifting cultivation remains the common practice of cultivation wherein mixed
cropping of cereals, pulses, oilseeds, vegetables, spices and condiments etc. are taken up.
3.1.2 During 2018-19 the overall food grain production in the State increased by 1.53 per cent
and in 2019-20 the production is expected to increase substantially, the assessment of
which is underway and is expected to be completed by March 2020. The substantial
progress in production and productivity of food grains has been achieved by interventions
of the State Plan during the recent years and also ongoing centrally funded lagship
programmes of Government of India such as NFSM, RKVY, NMSA, MOVCD-NER etc. The
envisioned Organic Farming Programme under MOVCD-NER, which is in the conversion
period, is expected to boost the organic production of high value crops such as ginger,
turmeric, rajma (Kholar), large cardamom, king chilli, soybean, kiwi, passion fruit, tree
tomato etc. With the implementation of Farm Mechanization programmes, the farm
power availability has increased from 0.397 kW to 0.497 kW during the last ive years.
Share of Agriculture and Allied in the Gross State Value Added (GSVA)
3.1.3 Agriculture and Allied sector is one of the major contributors to the GSDP and is the
largest employer of the workforce in the State with 45.47 per cent of the working
population engaged in the Agriculture activities (Census 2011).
3.1.4 Although Agriculture sector still remains as one of the largest contributors to the
economy of the State, the share of Agriculture and Allied sector in the Gross State Value
Added (GSVA) which was 30.94 per cent in 2011-12 has steadily decline to 27.40 per cent
in 2017-18 (P). During 2019-20 advance estimates of GSVA, the share of Agriculture and
Allied sector is estimated to decline further to 25.21 per cent. This decline simply portrays
the shifting of the economy from Agriculture towards the other sector of the economy.
During 2019-20, Agriculture and Allied sector is estimated to grow at 4.64 per cent as
against 1.55 per cent growth achieved in 2018-19.

Under NABARD funding (Negotiated Loan), the Government has sanction an amount of
Rs. 100.00 Lakhs during 2019-20 for implementation of 3 (three) numbers of projects in
Dimapur, Kohima and Mokokchung districts. The proposals includes construction of
water harvesting pond, water body using LDPE lined pond and creation of water farms
and water bodies by conserving monsoon run-off using LDPE lined ponds.
3.7.4 Minor Irrigation Census
Govt. of Nagaland has successfully completed ive (5) MI Census with the reference year
th
1986-87, 1993-94, 2000-01, 2006-07 and 2013-14. The 6 M.I. Census with reference
year of 2017-18 is carried out along with Census of Water bodies.
3.7.5 National Hydrology Project (NHP)
National Hydrology Project (NHP) is a Central Sector Scheme of 8 years duration starting
from 2016-17 onwards with an objective to modernize the data, information and
knowledge support for water resources management, planning and operation. Under
NHP, Two National Competitive Bid (e-tendering) has been successfully loated for
Construction of State Data Centre at Kohima and Construction of Hydrology Convention
Centre at Dimapur.
3.7.6 National Water Conservation Mission
Ministry of Jal Shakti has proposed a Centrally Sponsored Scheme namely “National Water
Conservation Mission-JAL JEEVAN MISSION-HAR GHAR VARSHA JAL “JJM-HGVJ” for
taking up suitable interventions for water conservation and water harvesting. Under this
scheme, the Department of Water Resources, GoN has prepared a DPR amounting to
Rs.292.65 crores envisaging to take-up 2500 units of water retention structures having a
storage capacity of 10 Lakhs litres per unit covering every village and rural township of the
State. The Project will be spread over 5 years starting from 2019-20 onwards upto 2023-24
and the phasing will be made according to the demand of the intervention required. On
completion of this project, 25 Lakhs CUM of water reserves will be developed which can be
planned and utilized by different stake holders for allocation in different sector.
3.8 SOIL AND WATER CONSERVATION
3.8.1 INTEGRATED WATERSHED MANAGEMENT PROJECT (IWMP)
The aim of the Model IWMP is to lessen the soil erosion and maintain ecological balance
without disturbing the natural resources. The duration of the project is 3(three) years' time.
This model project will wound up during the year 2019-20 and new IWM projects will be
initiated from 2020-21 in each district. At present there are 11 projects in each district and
1(one) project at Research and Training Centre Sechü / Zubza under Kohima District.
3.8.2 ESTABLISHMENT OF STATE SOIL TESTING LABORATORY BUILDINGS AND
EQUIPMENT AT KOHIMA, NAGALAND
The objectives of soil testing are (a) to assess the nutrient status/fertility status of soil, (b)
to determine the amount of fertilizer needed to supplement the nutrient content in soil, (c)

39
NAGALAND ECONOMIC SURVEY 2019 - 2020

to evaluate the nutrient status of soils of an area with the object of having an estimate of
fertilizer requirement of the area, and (d) to compare fertility levels of two or more areas.
Towards this objective, The Govt. of Nagaland has therefore proposed for establishment of
Soil testing laboratory building at Kohima under NEC scheme. This laboratory is
envisioned for installation with the state of the art equipment so as to enable systematic
collection of soil samples and analysis thereby generating the test reports through soil
health cards. The laboratory once established will be equipped with the most compatible
instruments to analyze both macro and micro nutrients. It is envisioned that the
laboratory will cater to the need of farmers and stakeholders with concrete and reliable
information on soil health and its management for economic production.
3.8.3 INTEGRATED CATCHMENT AREA TREATMENT (FLOOD MANAGEMENT
PROGRAMME)
The presence of extensive hilly terrain in the State coupled with high rainfall during the
monsoon makes the region prone to heavy runoff and soil erosion. In addition, the
extensive practices of jhum cultivation in the hill slopes also contribute extensively to soil
erosion. The ultimate consequence is the turbulent velocity of runoff and soil erosion
resulting in the destruction of prime agricultural and forest lands. The focus of Soil and
Water Conservation therefore is to tackle these problems effectively through Integrated
Catchment Area Treatment. The programme is not only a lood control measure but also to
restore the fragile ecology of the watershed.
3.8.4 NATIONAL MISSION FOR SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE (NMSA)
National Mission for Sustainable Agriculture (NMSA) aims at promoting location speci ic
improved agronomic practices through soil health management, enhanced water use
ef iciency, judicious use of chemicals, crop diversi ication, progressive adoption of crop-
livestock farming systems and integrated approaches like crop-sericulture, agro-forestry,
ish farming, etc.
3.8.5 Under NMSA, Govt. of Nagaland through the department of Soil and Water Conservation is
implementing Soil Health Management (SHM) & Soil Health Card Scheme (SHCS) since
September 2019. During 2019-20, Pilot project for Model Villages Programme of Soil
Health Card Scheme (SHCS) is underway wherein the Ministry has approved 74 villages
from all the 74 blocks of the state. The project aims to provide soil health card to each and
every farmer of the selected villages. The target set for the said project is 27, 304 soil
samples, 3,042 demonstrations and 74 farmer/krishi mela.

3.9 COOPERATION
3.9.1 Cooperative society is a form of organization based on joint ownership and democratic
leadership. It is formed to protect the interest of weaker sections. It is a voluntary
association of persons, whose motive is the welfare of the members.
3.9.2 A three (3) tier system of cooperative societies exists in Nagaland viz., State level, District
level and Primary level cooperatives, registered under the Nagaland Cooperative Societies
Act 2017. At present, there are 7(seven) cooperative societies at state level, 3(three)
district level cooperative societies and 8299 primary level cooperative societies.

Nagaland State Mineral Development Corporation (NSMDC Ltd)

4.2.7 The Government of Nagaland desires to exploit the rich mineral to enhance the economic
status of the State and to uplift the rural people where rich mineral deposits are available.
With this objective, Nagaland State Mineral Development Corporation Limited (NSMDC),
fully owned by the State Government was set up by the Government of Nagaland and
incorporated in May, 1981 under Companies Act, 1956 with the main objectives of
i. Initiating commercial exploitation of limestone, coal and other mineral deposits
ii. Promoting, establishing and developing economic activities in mines and mineral
based industries.
4.2.8 In line with the State Government's policy, NSMDC is slowly shifting its activities from
being a production organization to become a promoter, facilitator and consultancy
organization. NSMDC will continue to facilitate private investors and private companies
for establishment of mineral based industries in the State by identifying economically
viable mineral deposits and develop infrastructures and also provide necessary services.
4.2.9 Presently, the two units of Decorative and Dimensional Stone Plants are operational under
NSMDC Ltd, one at Chumukedima and the other at Wazeho both set up under NEC

CHAPTER-5
INFRASTRUCTURE SECTOR

5.1 POWER AND ELECTRICITY

5.1.1
Power or Electricity is one of the most important blessings that science has given to
mankind as it is one of the core infrastructures to accelerate economic development of a
region. It has also become a part of modern life and the demand for energy overtime has
increased immensely. It has, therefore, grown at a rate faster than other forms of energy.
Power sector makes a direct and signi icant contribution to the economy in terms of
revenue generation, employment opportunities and enhances the quality of life.
STATE POWER ALLOCATION
5.1.2
The State meets its power requirement through 24 MW of self-generation and about
155MW of power allocation from various Central sector generation projects of NHPC,
NEEPCO, NTPC & OTPC. The present peak power demand is of the order of 165 MW and
100 MW during off peak period. The availability of power apparently projects as surplus.
However, since most of the generation projects in the North Eastern Region are Hydro in
nature, the state faces shortage of power during low hydro generation condition where
the state have to opt for purchase of Power through IEX and other bilateral arrangements
to meets its demand.
STATE OWNED POWER GENERATION
5.1.3
Generation of power is considered as the source and life line of survival of any power
utility. Though the state is endowed with numerous hydro potential sites, many are yet to
be exploited due to lack of adequate funding to develop the sites. So far the projects which
have been successfully commissioned and in operation are:
1. 24 MW Likimro HEP in Kiphire District.
2. 1 MW Lang HEP in Noklak.
3. 1 MW Tehok HEP in Mon District.
4. 0.54 MW Duilumroi MHP in Peren District.
The total energy generation by these projects during 2019-2020 (upto Dec. 2019) is 65.08
MU. The Government of Nagaland is also actively moving forward for installation of Solar
power plants with the National Solar Parks and Rooftop Solar installations in the State
with the target to achieve 61MW by 2022.
DISTRIBUTION
5.1.4
Achievements with respect to Distribution and revenue branch are detailed below:
Ø Construction of the Transmission line from Ganeshnagar to Jalukie and 5MVA, 33/11kV
Sub-Station at Jalukie was completed and commissioned in 2017. And the 66kV (Charged

49
NAGALAND ECONOMIC SURVEY 2019 - 2020

at 33kV) Transmission line from Jalukie to Peren and 5MVA, 33/11 kV substation at Peren
th
has been completed and successfully charged on 12 Feb. 2019.
Ø Construction of 5MVA, 33/11kV Sub-Station at IG Stadium, Kohima has been completed
and successfully charged on 25th June 2019.
Ø Construction of 132kV transmission line from Wokha to Doyang along NH-61 was taken
up to facilitate 132kV line to the newly constructed 10MVA, 132/33kV Sub-Station at
Philimi, Zunheboto near Doyang along NH-61, through DoNER under NLCPR fund. The
construction of line has been completed and successfully test charged.
Ø Under the lagship program of Deen Dayal Upadhya Gram Jyoti Yojna/Saubhaya, cent
percent electri ication of all un-electri ied villages and household was achieved. This is a
landmark achievement for the State along with the other States of the Country.
Ø With communitization, the concept of Single Point Metering (SPM) has been adopted. SPM
involves metering of Village/Khel/Locality at a single point. SPM's are managed by Boards
which is the Urban Electricity Management Board (UEMB) in urban areas and Village
Electricity Management Board (VEMB) in rural areas. More than 95% of villages are under
the ambit of communitization. The communitization model has proved dif icult to be
adopted in the urban areas mainly due to constrains involving electrically isolating a
speci ic area so as to be metered through a SPM as well as mix of local authorities. The
division-wise details of SPM are as in the table below:

and vulnerable sections of the people.
Good health in a state can be justi ied by the infant mortality rate the percentage of births
through trained personnel that also impacts maternal health. Removal of biases against
women as well as the girl child is critical and this is captured by the sex ratio (female per
male) as well as girl-boy mortality ratio.
With the increase in the population, habitations and emergence of new diseases due to the
changing lifestyle, climate changes etc, the health needs of the people have also been
increased and these in turn have led to an increase in the demand for health facilities,
manpower and services, the department is striving to improve the health scenario of the
state.
