Arunachal State Rural Livelihoods Mission

What Arunachal State Rural Livelihoods Mission does

Arunachal State Rural Livelihoods Mission (ArSRLM) is an autonomous society registered under the Society Registration Act of 1860 and operating under the aegis of the Government of Arunachal Pradesh. It functions as the designated nodal agency for implementing the DAY-NRLM (Deendayal Antyodaya Yojana – National Rural Livelihoods Mission) and Aajeevika schemes within the state, targeting the "Poorest of the Poor" (PoP) rural households. The mission reaches 143,235 households across 27 districts, 128 blocks, 6,204 Gram Panchayats, and 6,568 villages, mobilizing beneficiaries into a four-tier institutional structure of 14,405 Self Help Groups (SHGs), 2,032 Panchayat Livelihood Funds (PLFs), and 91 Community Livelihood Funds (CLFs).

The mission's service portfolio spans 11 programs covering poverty alleviation (DAY-NRLM), skills and wage employment (DDU-GKY), women's agricultural empowerment (MKSP), rural entrepreneurship (SVEP), vocational training (RSETI), capacity building (UNNATI, IBCB), financial inclusion, social inclusion (SISD), and farm/non-farm livelihood interventions. These programs are supported by 5 digital platforms—the NRLM-MIS Portal, SHG Bank Loan Portal, CBO Trans, Digital Library, and Grievance Redressal Portal—used for monitoring, credit linkage, and reporting rather than as proprietary technology products. Implementation is decentralized through 8 District Mission Management Units (DMMUs) and Block Mission Management Units (BMMUs) across the state.

ArSRLM does not operate a commercial revenue model. It is funded entirely through government budget allocations from the Government of Arunachal Pradesh and central NRLM/Aajeevika scheme disbursements, which it channels to community institutions and beneficiary households as Revolving Fund (Rs. 28.65 Cr disbursed), Community Investment Fund (Rs. 127.99 Cr), Vulnerability Reduction Fund (Rs. 28.65 Cr), and Vulnerability Fund (Rs. 3.82 Cr). Governance is provided by a Governing Body chaired by the Chief Minister of Arunachal Pradesh and an Executive Committee chaired by the Chief Secretary, with day-to-day operations led by the CEO-cum-State Mission Director and supported by 23 staff at state level plus block-level personnel.
