AbstractThe National Programme for Control of Blindness (NPCB) was launched by the Government of India in 1976. NPCB is introduced in the State of Goa in 1981 as a 100 percent centrally sponsored scheme. The targets prescribed were not realistic and based on assessment/ survey during 1996-2001. The performance audit also revealed that the unspent grant of Rs.6.16 lakh was not refunded or adjusted from the release of grants. NPCB programme did not cover population of 1.63 lakh out of 11.69 population of Goa State due to shortage of staff. Mobile unit was not functioning during 1996-97 to 2000-2001 depriving door treatment to the needy and poor. NPCB training was not given to the ophthalmic staff during 1996-97 to 2000-01. Further evaluation of the programme was not carried out to ensure effective implementation.
