RDD Odisha Schedule of Rates
About Rural Development Department, Government of Odisha
RDD Odisha scope covers rural roads (PMGSY-state share implemented through OSRRA — Odisha State Rural Roads Authority), rural civic infrastructure, panchayat building works, plus inputs to rural water-supply (in coordination with PHEO). PMGSY rural roads use MoRD Standard Data Book (already covered as part of morth publisher) for rate analysis with Odisha-specific lead/lift adjustments. Non-PMGSY rural roads (state-funded district roads, panchayat connectivity) use Works Dept SOR 2022 (already covered as odisha publisher). The PMGSY-III Programme Guidelines on rd.odisha.gov.in describe scope and methodology but aren't a rate document.
