General

 

The Committee observed that the budgetallocated for the 12 months period is being spent in the final quarter of thefinancial year and within 3 months for TV and 6 months for Radio campaigns. TheCommittee also felt that instead of campaign during shorter period, it shouldbe staggered throughout the year for better results. The CommunicationDepartment informed that the activities for production of TVCs and selection ofvendor were taken up in the beginning of the financial year, however, theprocess has taken time. The department assured that the campaign activitieswill be commenced in time during the next financial year and that the campaignswould be planned in such a way for spreading them out throughout the financialyear.

The meeting concluded with vote of thanks tothe Chair.
