SPARROW has been introduced as an online performance appraisal system for all government functionaries in Arunachal Pradesh. This system aims to bring transparency and efficiency to the performance appraisal process. The primary department responsible for implementing SPARROW is the Administrative Reforms Department.
Currently, SPARROW is being used for all APCS and AP Secretariat staff where some have enrolled and started to file their appraisal online, as well as other government departments are expected to come on board soon. This online system promises a speedy and transparent appraisal process for all government officials.
As of now, 51 departments have submitted their APAR forms, while 13 departments were yet to do so. Also, reminder letters have been issued to 13 departments as well as the National Informatics Center (NIC) has been instructed to integrate the APAR form into the SPARROW portal.
The SPARROW project is a positive and welcome step towards digitisation and efficiency in the administrative sector of Arunachal Pradesh, aimed to bring transparency and expedite the annual performance appraisal process.
Calling citizens to share their views on SPARROW and ways to witness its seamless integration into all government departments.

Like every living creature, sparrows are important for preserving our natural ecosystem. Back in 1960, following China’s Great Sparrow Campaign, China suffered its worst famine. The Communists hadn’t realised that sparrows don’t just eat crops, but also insects. Following their elimination, China’s locust population soared and destroyed crops. Grain production in most rural areas collapsed, triggering a famine. Millions of people starved to death.
