Smart Gujarat Hackathon 2017
Challenge Statement

Name of the Department: Tribal Development Department

Challenge Title ( Must be one liner)	:	Convergence of various Government schemes
Challenge Description with context (At least one Paragraph)	:	Different departments of the State and Central Government undertake many developmental as well as welfare activities. These departments normally work in isolation, if convergence of schemes can be achieved these schemes can be complementary to each other for achieving a common objective.
What Exact Problem is being Solved?	:	Different departments of the State and Central Government undertake many developmental as well as welfare activities. Example: WASMO provides 90% financial assistance for water projects in a village, remaining 10% should be contribution from the beneficiary village. In some cases, where the villagers are not able to bear 10% contribution, some other department can make provision to sponsor 10% contribution on behalf of that particular village and thus, two different departments of the Government can achieve the object through convergence by being complementary to each other.
Users	:	Various Government authorities
Expected Outcomes	:	A digital solution which can help various Government Departments to identify the scope of convergence for common objectives.
Impact	:	· Through convergence of schemes better results can be achieved for developmental activities. · Efforts of different Government departments can be complementary to each other.
