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.

So how can you help increase the sparrow population in your neighbourhood? It’s simple. Place bird feeders in any open space you find and stock it with grains like bajra, wheat and oats. Keep bird baths filled with fresh water, especially during the summer. If possible, provide nest boxes with easy access. And don’t be impatient. It can take up to a week for the hungry birds to start coming in!
