Works being implemented entirely through Gram Panchayats. No case was found of works being handed over to contractors. This is a major achievement, as many other states continue to fall back on contracting systems. Use of labour-displacing machinery was negligible.

Careful verification of the muster rolls at the worksites uncovered few irregularities. This was due to increased awareness among villagers as well as administrative efficiency.
