Chairperson’s Message
From Hindi Heartland Despite very successful and relatively peaceful Panchayat elections during the year, elections to municipalities were postponed in Uttar Pradesh (U.P). Fabricating reasons for such postponement of constitutional obligations may be a cover for fear of failure at the hustling by the ruling regime. It is in this milieu of present day UP that mission-oriented voluntary development organizations have to survive, as well as pursue their commitment against all odds. SSK has been spearheading such a movement of voluntary action in UP for the past sixteen years. As Bihar emerges into a new dawn of hope and development, UP sinks further into chaos, indiscipline, and malgovernance. The challenge for SSK, therefore, is to find a new niche for its contributions in reforming governance in the institutions of the state in UP. As recent deliberations around NREGA indicated, there is also a growing dynamic of confrontation between the central government and the state government in UP. Playing one or the other may not be prudent in terms of developing sustainable impact on governance. While SSK may derive credibility from its grassroots interventions, the present political context in UP makes policy advocacy almost a futile exercise.
So, where is SSK best positioned to have an impact in the coming year? It appears that the existing network of civil society engaged in governance may need to be expanded to include people’s representatives from Panchayats and municipalities. A new coalition for reforming governance in UP is essential at this juncture.
SSK may also consider becoming, more consciously, a champion of these approaches in the Hindi heartland; it may become the hub for future interventions in the Hindi ‘belt’? For the past sixteen years, SSK like many other voluntary organizations of its type, have been largely dependent on grants for its programmes. As is now clear, flexible grant-based funding is rapidly declining. SSK needs to figure out new ways of packaging its interventions in order to mobilize new resources for its future work. And this search for new resources has to be based on the value of autonomy of thought and actions! This is a big challenge, and all of us associated with SSK need to find creative ways of addressing it. May I take this opportunity to thank Ashok Singh (founder director of SSK) and all his colleagues, as well as my own on its Governing Board, for an excellent year in going to scale. Rajesh Tandon June 2006
For Sahbhagi, the year that has gone by has been a year full of
activities concerned with local self-governance. But unlike previous years this year,
intense intervention was made in the field of urban local self-governance. Although,
we were hesitant to take up this new endeavour initially. But now after vigorous
efforts of three years we are confident enough to further intensify our intervention in
this field.
Director’s Message
This year important activities like urban Pre-Election Voters Awareness Campaign and
the Sanitation Campaign along with various other activities clubbed together helped us
to upscale our urban programme.
SSK has also been working on strengthening Panchayati Raj Institutions and has made
abundant efforts in this direction till date. The time has come when our efforts should
now contribute in distinctive ways to facilitate socio-economic changes in the lives of
the underprivileged and the deprived. Right to Information, National Rural
Employment Guarantee Act and Sarva Shiksha Abhiyan are some commendable
opportunities before the Civil Society Organizations to bring about the desired changes
in the lives of the marginalized and the new paths for us to tread upon.
SSK has also accomplished the solemn endeavour for capacity building and sharing of
knowledge by organizing participatory training programmes that has strengthened our
relations with the civil society organizations. We have also sensitized and established
deeper relations with Academia, Media and the Government.
For all these achievements I would like to thank our board members for their constant
guidance and support which has time and again provided us with new insights and
vigor to move ahead. I also extend my sincere thanks to our resource providers and
last but not the least to all our team members.

Chapter 1 About Sahbhagi Shikshan Kendra
Origin Sahbhagi Shikshan Kendra (SSK) a center for Participatory Learning was established in 1990 at Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh). The Kendra's emergence was counter to the developmental perspective of the Hindi-speaking belt of India. Large numbers of Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) were working for the upliftment of the marginalized/deprived and weaker sections of the society, but the institutional capacity for effectively managing their projects and programmes was inadequate, and thus were depended on other well-established organizations for financial and non-financial support. Lack of professional inputs, competency, and aptitude curbed the development process. SSK was thus established to provide systematic programme management support to the CSOs working at the grassroots. Introduction Sahbhagi Shikshan Kendra (SSK) is non-profit, non-governmental organization, which functions as a support organization in the state of Uttar Pradesh. SSK is committed to strengthen the institutions of local self-governance by providing capacity building support to different actors of civil society. The mission of SSK is to build and strengthen capacity of civil socapproach where people are placed at the centerPartnership and mutual sharing of ideas and infoare its core values.
SSK strive for building and strengthening capacities of CSOs through people centric approach placing people at the centre of all developmental initiatives. Partnership and reciprocal sharing of information with the target groups is the nucleus of our values.
SSK works with grassroots organizations that strive for social change. We provide Capacity Building support to our partners through organizing training Programmes, workshops, and intensive support in their programmes. To harmonize/supplement our effo

Chapter 3 Pre Election Voters Awareness Campaign (PEVAC)
An initiative for strengthening Local Self-Governance PEVAC the acronym stands for Pre Election Voters Awareness Campaign. It is a process with a series of activities involved at different levels with the involvement of different stakeholders at various levels. The PEVAC is essentially apolitical in nature and seeks to Create an enabling and conducive environment for a free, fair, and smooth
election process. Encourage voters to make the best use of their “rights of franchise” To enable voters to cast their ballots properly To enhance voter information on all aspects of elections, enabling voting
with appropriate discernment To encourage participation of women and members of SC/ST communities,
both as voters and as candidates To facilitate free and fair elections To generate awareness on responsible electoral behavior, thereby checking
participation of dummy candidates. Rural PEVAC To strengthen Rural Local Self-Governance process
Democratic decentralization was rechristened as Panchayati Raj for promotion of local initiative and community ownership in the field of development. The shift from community development to Panchayati Raj was a shift from silent revolution to most revolutionary stage in administration and development.
In the purview of above concept a massive Voters awareness campaign was launched focusing on elections of PRI in Uttar Pradesh due in August 2005. The learning during the first phase i.e. year 2000-05 was very much instrumental in the beginning of what is now known as Pre- Election Voters awareness campaign (PEVAC). The election of PRIs in UP was not just another election but was a beginning of a march towards an end, which perhaps ensures a self-reliant, self-dependent and prosperous life for the people at the grassroots. The campaign, which began at intensive level with partner organizations turned into an Education Movement spreading over entire state. A strong CSO platform of 324 organizations covered 48 districts in state intensively. Objectives Rural PEVAC To strengthen Panchayat level democratic process of election through local
leadership. To conduct Panchayat elections based on the core developmental issues.
To influence democratic process at national/ state level by creating better examples of Panchayat elections.
The campaign started with the formal inauguration programme at state level on July 29th, 2005 organized at SSK, Lucknow followed by series of district level inauguration events organized with an objective to provide momentum for the huge task ahead. The campaign initially was taken up in 13 districts spread to 52 districts of UP by the time state went for Panchayat polls. This was materialized through collaborations made at different levels with the CSOs working in rural areas of the state. Besides, dissemination of PEVAC messages was ensured throughout the state by broadcasting PEVAC radio jingles.
Implementation Strategy
Networking was the nucleolus of the campaign. Building alliance with the like-minded organizations, Government machinery and the media for efficient execution of the programme was the strategy adopted for effective implementation of the campaign. Various strategically collaborations were made with the agencies working on the issue so as to avoid duplication of efforts/ interventions directed towards the democratic awareness.
The interventions planned for PEVAC-2005 was divided into five phases: -
Phase Focus Activities First Environment

Besides SSK and its network partners, UPVAN and other regional networks of the state came forward in support of the campaign. CSOs, working on the local level in different districts of the state were also contacted and motivated for contributing in the campaign. Strategically the intervention area was divided into two types- intensive and extensive, so as to facilitate the wider coverage within the available resources. On one hand the intervention in the extensive areas was limited to disseminate awareness messages whereas various planned activities and community level events were carried out in the intensive Gram Panchayats.
A strong platform was built with programmatic networks like CASA, PACS and CRS and educational support was provided to them during the campaign.

URBAN PEVAC
To strengthen Urban Local Self Governance
Elections are one of the major pillars of democracy. This is the only process through which citizens can exercise their right to select their representatives in the democratic functioning of the country. India, which is the largest democracy of the world conducting free and fair elections, is a challenge, so when coming from national level to local level this challenges increases several times. When we talk in context of Urban Local bodies it is found that in urban area participation and involvement of community in local bodies go on decreasing and this directly affects the process of local bodies’ election. Due to this fact the right candidates do not take part in election process, which ultimately results in an insufficient and incapable local urban body. Keeping this and several other facts in mind it was felt that there is immense need to make contestant and electorates more responsible towards these elections. Urban Pre Election Voters Awarim

Chapter 10 Key Learnings and Observations
Working with youths in different districts was good experience they become one of the fastest source of information dissemination, and sensitizing various stakeholders at different levels (i.e. Peoples from academia, government officials and communities).
While working in urban areas it was found that the condition was different from rural areas and there is need to incorporate livelihood issues, which are the biggest concern of the people.
Accountability and Transparency at government level is missing and there is need to work on this concern intensively.
Some time multiple activities were done together and which resulted in inefficient result from some activities, linking them together was missing to achieve on aim of good governance.
Right to Information comes up as an effective tool for social audit and
citizen monitoring. Festive environment was seen during election process particularly during
nominations, candidates came with huge mass with all beating of drums and raising slogans.
Immense enthusiasm and excitement was seen amongst women folk, women candidates.
Women candidates took initiative and did all campaigning, they came out with confidence and declared their manifestos.
Cordial and harmonious environment for elections was built in intensive gram Panchayats.
Government officers at district and state level legitimized and certified the campaign activities.
Media had strong inclination towards Panchayat elections; separate columns were published on the issue in leading daily newspapers.
Non-availability of new voter list at block was cause of great problem to candidates during nomination process.
State of confusion was seen at the level of block and districts officials regarding election process.
Lack of uniform guideline was seen at block level regarding elections. Irregular practices were seen during counting process
Chapter 11 The Way Forward
To continue the activities of PEVAC like sensitization of various stakeholders for ensuring their participation for making free and fare environment for election and to make community sensitize towards local issues and ensuring their involvement in choosing the right candidate
To continue with the process of collecting right information and to disseminate it to various stake holders
To organize such platform where different contestant for election can come at one place and can share their priorities after election.
To do capacity buildings of Elective representatives and municipal officials
Focus on town planning (with respect to schemes like UIDSSMT and IHSDP)
Advocacy and Liasoning with government officials for urban poor so that they can avail the facilities provided by government to them.
Joint collaboration workshop with various stakeholders at state level (i.e RCUES, SUDA, Directorate ULBs etc)
To make special strategies for involving peoples from academia in joint research on urban issue and with media for disseminating the information at state and national level.
To develop a model ward in every URC for extensive intervention. With the numbers of Panchayati Raj Institutions and the elected
representatives (especially members, GP) of the local bodies in the state, issues like regular intervention on the capacity building of these newly elected representatives is a challenge for Government as well as civil society. The ways and means for addressing the needs to fulfill this area, in collaboration with Government, needs to be prioritized in the state.
Though lot of efforts have been pooled in to ensure effective linkages among the three tiers of the PRIs, but with little success, the reason at large lies in the still to be formalized DPCs. Appropriate advocacy strategy will be formulated in this regard.
While working for the masses, once again it has been established that livelihood is the prime issue to work upon. While working on the issue of LSG thus, effective implementation of NREGA has been included on within our intervention strategy, which needs to be intensified.
Some more focus training catering to the need of district specially GOVT and media should be designed.
Capacity building of CSOs should more focus on program management and staff development besides organizational development.
Perspective building for CSOs on Gender, RTI, NREGA, should be conducted at meso and micro level. These issues will make crucial role in context of development in state.
Holistic Gram Panchayat Planning which is of immense importance today especially when we are going for ensuring the employment of rural poor through NREG
Under pressure of central government Right to Information act has been enacted in the state but interventions (especially with regard to knowledge about act to common man) are required in order to achieve the targeted objectives.
Future strategy for Uttar Pradesh regarding locations / partnerships / coverage etc. as per priorities assigned: While working in the state, coverage on the issue of local self Governance in the district of western region had been a important concern area for us. From this financial year onwards we intend to establish a DRC (to be either based in Bareilly or Badaun) along with two PRCs (Bareilly/ Badaun and Moradabad and a URC at Bareilly or Badaun.
The need for the interventions at this level has come out due to the involvement with regional networks, during the PEVAC. Keeping up the visibility gained by these networks during the massive campaign, is a big challenge in the post campaign phase, and CSOs acknowledge and foresee the role of SSK and PRIA in this regard. Thus besides in-depth intensive works at micro level, some planned interventions, and structural arrangements will be ensured at the regional level.
