nor even inform the local people about the projected program before starting implementation.
The common practice by the implementing body is to display a billboard that informs local
people about the program implementation (Siddiqui 2005). Recently the World Bank has
introduced participatory- budgeting in the lower tier of local governance. But, where 80% of
the populace at village level are illiterate, how much they understand about the budgetary
calculation and how they establish their voice for making decisions is a great question.
