The basic object of the programme is to minimise the adverse effect of drought and control desertification through rejuvenation of natural resource base of the identified desert areas. The programme strives to achieve ecological balance in
the long run. The programme also aims at promoting overall economic development and improving the socio-economic conditions of the resource poor and disadvantaged sections inhabiting the programme areas.

The NSAP will include, for the time being, three benefits as its components, viz.,
(i) National Old Age Pension Scheme (NOAPS)
(ii) National Family Benefit Scheme (NFBS)
(iii) National Maternity Benefit Scheme (NMBS).
NSAP is a social assistance programme for poor households and represents a
significant step towards the fulfillment of the Directive Principles in Articles 41
and 42 of the Constitution recognizing the concurrent responsibility of the Central
and State governments in the matter.
The NSAP is a Centrally Sponsored Programme under which 100 per cent Central
assistance is extended to the States/UTs to provide the benefits in accordance with
the norms, guidelines and conditions laid down by the Central Government
The Barefoot Economist
http://business.in.com/article/person-of-the-year-09/the-barefoot-economist/8222/1
Jean Drèze (born 1959) is a Indian development Economist of Belgian origin. His co-authors include Nobel laureate in economics Amartya Sen, with whom he has written on famine, and Nicholas Stern, with whom he has written on policy reform when market prices are distorted. He is currently an honorary Professor at the Delhi School of Economics, and Senior Professor at the G. B. Pant Social Science Institute, Allahabad. He is a former member of the National Advisory Council of India.
And on the National Advisory Council, a body of experts meant to ensure the UPA government’s agenda was being met, Dreze the activist seems to have married Dreze the academic. His interests matched the Left supported governments and Dreze was asked to write the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act, which says the government has to provide manual labour work, at minimum wages, to anyone who asks for it within two weeks. Dreze had written the NREGA for the Rajasthan government, as a relief measure for the drought.
