If provided by the financial institution, the Early Warning System Team writes a short summary describing the purported development objective of the project and project components. Review the complete project documentation for a detailed description.

As per Bank detail The SRSIP will provide incentives by way of grant funds to eight focus states, for progressive improvement of effective road safety. A dynamic ranking system, based on monthly and yearly performance, in road safety interventions, will be set in place for the states. The indicators for measuring performance will be at outcome levels for accident fatalities, as well as identified interventions covering institutional, accident risk mitigation, accident response, and awareness. Subject to specified metrics being achieved, MORTH would pass on ADB's financial assistance and funds from its budgetary sources as a grant to the states.

ACCOUNTABILITY MECHANISM OF ADB

The Accountability Mechanism is an independent complaint mechanism and fact-finding body for people who believe they are likely to be, or have been, adversely affected by an Asian Development Bank-financed project. If you submit a complaint to the Accountability Mechanism, they may investigate to assess whether the Asian Development Bank is following its own policies and procedures for preventing harm to people or the environment. You can learn more about the Accountability Mechanism and how to file a complaint at: http://www.adb.org/site/accountability-mechanism/main
