AbstractNational Tuberculosis Programme National Tuberculosis Control Programme introduced in Goa since 1963 and implemented as a 100 per cent centrally sponsored scheme. The state had not spent Rs.66.34 lakh received as grant during 1996-97 to 2000-01. The targets prescribed were unrealistic and not based on survey/prevalence of disease. About 70 beds in T B Hospital, Margao were utilised against 160 bed strength available during 1996-2001. The percentage of T B patients discontinuing regular treatment was extremely high and the expenditure of Rs. 3.82 crore (approx.) on these patients was infructuous. Evaluation of the programme was not carried out to ensure effective implementation. National Programme for Control of Blindness The National Programme for Control of Blindness (NPCB) was introduced in Goa in 1981, as a 100 per cent centrally sponsored scheme. The targets prescribed were not realistic and based on assessment/survey during 1996- 2001. The programme did not cover a population of 1.63 lakh due to shortage of staff. NPCB training was not given to the ophthalmic staff during 1996- 2001. Evaluation of the programme was not carried out to ensure effective implementation.
