Panchayati Raj Institution Accounts Monitoring Software (PriaSoft) empowers the administrators to monitor the fund receipt, availability, and expenditure at all levels of three-tier administrative set up of Rural Panchayati Raj Institutions(PRI). It generates a number of reports and has an in-built decision support system to analyze any of the account heads. The software is designed so as to allow addition of new account heads at the State level as and when required.
The Web-based version of Priasoft (http://ori.nic.in/priasoft) has been successfully implemented by Deptt. of Panchayati Raj, Govt. of Orissa, covering 30 DRDAs, 314 Blocks and 6234 Gram Panchayats. The software has been installed at NIC-Orissa State Unit Server. The data entry / updation is being done, by PRIs, from remote places over the Internet (District, Block and Gram Panchayats). The features related to the elected representatives and assets created by respective Rural Local Bodies (RLBs) are also being added for better management. This is the first time Rural Local bodies have joined e-governance initiatives in such a large number and effective manner.
