GROW programme envisioned inclusive economic development in Bihar. The programme aimed to assist the Government of Bihar (GoB) in attracting private sector investments, effectively steer revenue collection, utilise and strengthen growth transmission benefitting women, scheduled castes (SCs) and minorities.
As a Technical Support Unit (TSU), we assisted GoB to improve the investment climate for private sector growth, boost revenue collection and strengthen public financial management to make development more effective and revamp technical education in the state to create jobs, particularly for women, Scheduled Castes (SCs) and minorities. This was done through integrated interventions including supporting the GoB in designing and implementing reforms leading to greater private sector driven economic growth; strengthened Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) sector and improved growth transmission via increased revenue mobilisation; effective utilisation of resources; and more effective development programming, particularly for women, poorest and the most vulnerable.
