The concept note presents a well-structured and comprehensive framework for evaluating public health campaigns through data-driven methodologies. It effectively aligns with the objectives of India’s Digital Health Mission and the Sustainable Development Goals. The integration of open datasets and predictive analytics is particularly commendable and offers significant potential for generating policy-relevant insights. It would be useful to highlight how this project adds value beyond existing assessments — for instance, by integrating multiple open datasets with predictive analytics to generate actionable, policy-relevant insights. The data sources section could include additional repositories such as the Health Management Information System (HMIS), RCH portal, and Census data to provide stronger coverage and validation. Methodologically, the framework is strong but could benefit from including spatial analysis for regional clustering and clear mention of model validation techniques like cross-validation or AUC. The note may also emphasize ethical handling of public data and address issues related to data quality and completeness. Overall, the concept note is highly promising and provides a strong foundation for evidence-based public health evaluation.

Feedback on the Revised Concept Note

Dear Team,

Thank you for sharing the revised Concept Note on “Impact Analytics of National and State Public Health Campaigns in India through a Data-Driven Evaluation”. I appreciate the time and effort that has gone into this version. It is clear that a lot of thought has been put into strengthening the technical sections and expanding the analytical framework. Please find my detailed feedback below.

1. Overall Impression

The revised document is much stronger than the previous version. It is more detailed, more technically grounded, and presents a far clearer picture of the analytical direction of the project. The added depth around modeling, spatial analysis, and forecasting is a valuable improvement.

At the same time, the tone and style of the note now lean more towards an academic or research-oriented paper rather than a short concept note meant for decision-makers. This is not necessarily a problem, but the final use of the document may determine whether a simpler summary section is needed.

2. Structure and Clarity

The flow of the document has improved, and the sections are well arranged. However, the level of detail has increased so much that the opening part of the document may feel heavy for non-technical readers. If the note is expected to be read by government officials or administrative teams, it may help to add a one-page overview at the beginning that explains the project in plain language before the technical details begin.

3. Methodology Section

This is the strongest part of the revised note. The addition of formulas, modeling techniques, evaluation metrics, and spatial analysis gives the project a solid scientific foundation.

A few suggestions:

• Some of the mathematical explanations could be placed in an annexure to maintain readability.

• It may be helpful to briefly explain the practical purpose of each method. For example, how Moran’s I helps decision-makers identify clusters, or how Difference-in-Differences can show campaign impact.

• The use of PCA and weighting for the Composite Performance Index could be clarified, especially whether the weights will be campaign-specific or standard across all indicators.

4. Data Sources and Reproducibility

The expanded list of data sources is a welcome addition. Inclusion of HMIS, RCH and Census datasets makes the note more complete.

A few points that may need clarification:

• How data quality issues across states will be handled.

• Whether any ethical or institutional approvals will be needed for use of state-level datasets.

• What level of anonymization will be applied before data is shared on GitHub.

The idea of maintaining a repository for transparency is excellent, and it will be appreciated by researchers.

5. Expected Outputs

The new outputs give a fuller picture of what the project will deliver. The addition of dashboards, policy briefs, audio-visual materials, and a GitHub repository shows a shift toward wider dissemination, which is very useful.

A minor suggestion: It may help to identify which outputs are essential and which are optional, depending on time and resources.

6. Scope and Feasibility

The scope has expanded significantly, especially with the introduction of mathematical modeling, forecasting and spatial diagnostics. While this strengthens the note, it may also increase the workload. A short paragraph explaining the feasibility of completing all components within the suggested timeline would help manage expectations.

7. Tone and Target Audience

The revised version is technically much more advanced, but the tone is now more aligned with research institutions and academic reviewers. If the intended audience includes government departments, funding agencies or programme managers, you may want to prepare a short companion brief that summarises the key points in simpler language.

Summary of Suggestions

1. Add a short, non-technical summary at the beginning.

2. Consider shifting detailed formulas to an annexure.

3. Clarify data permissions, ethics and approval requirements.

4. Briefly explain why each analytical method is useful for policy.

5. Provide a short note on feasibility and timelines.

6. Prepare a simplified version for non-technical stakeholders if required.

Thanks

Garima:

The document titled "AI Compliance Declaration Form and Addendum" requires revision. In its current structure, attaching the declaration form to every individual recommendation risks creating unnecessary repetition in most cases. It would be preferable to simplify this process. My view is that we should treat the declaration as part of a statutory policy aligned with the Health Mission. At the time of joining, individuals may affirm their continual adherence to the AI Policy which eliminates the need for separate declarations on each occasion. There may be additional elements to consider as well. I have identified two comparable examples, from the Institute of Management Technology, Nagpur and Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi, which I am sharing for reference. Hence, this will remain ongoing work to be finalized at a later stage.

Regarding the Appointment Procedures you circulated, overall it is satisfactory. I propose that, following the initial stage of selection, candidates be informed of their provisional shortlisting or the corresponding outcome (separately, if less in volume or through common notification, if massive; which keeps the procedure scalable). Document verification may then be undertaken, and upon successful completion, the appointment order/letter may be issued as appropriate. The remainder seems in order.

And, thank you for sharing the revised concept note. I will review and include the relevant additions into the principal concept note, of which this version is accessible to all summary. I will share the updated draft for wide circulation, once prepared, in due course.

Best,
Tapomoy

Subject: Clarification Regarding the Concept Note and Project Timeline

Dear Sir 

Greetings.

I have gone through the detailed insight and the methodological framework mentioned in the concept note. The analytical components—especially the predictive modelling, data integration, statistical methods, and spatial analysis—are quite unfamiliar to me at this stage.

However, I am genuinely willing to learn and complete the project with proper guidance and support. As a BAMS graduate, I believe I would require additional time to understand and execute the technical components effectively. Considering the depth of the analysis, the expected duration of 1–1.5 months may not be sufficient for me, and I feel the project might require more than 2 months to complete with accuracy.

I would be grateful if this could be considered, and if guidance or mentorship could be provided during the analytical phases.

Thank you for your understanding.

Warm regards,
