Beneficiary Correlation on NLIST Services in Colleges of Assam

A NationwideAssessment

Abstract

This study aims to analyse the implementation of the NLIST project in the state of Assam through beneficiary relationship analysis and compare it with the national status. Factor analysis of beneficiary relationships and their impact is crucial for measuring project efficiency. For this purpose, statistical correlation techniques are used to measure the factors affecting project beneficiaries. The correlation coefficient for the state of Assam is measured, and the degree of correlation is compared with the national status to examine the project’s performance. The correlation coefficient is used to measure the degree of correlation between beneficiaries and registered member institutes from tabulated data collected from the INFLIBNET website (https://nlist.inflibnet.ac.in/). The correlation coefficients at the state and national levels demonstrate a positive and robust relationship. However, the degree of correlation within Assam is slightly lower than the national average, meaning that the effectiveness of project implementation at Assam is lower than that of national performance. The assessment of beneficiaries underscores the significant impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their growth in Assam. There is a need to improve service quality, accessibility, proper feedback mechanisms, collaboration with stakeholders and the availability of multidisciplinary resources.
