PBB means Programme-Based Budgeting while GIGO is the acronym you met when you started learning about programming or computers: Garbage In Garbage Out. PBB was supposed to help us manage public funds better and get our priorities right. I say was because we know from the audit reports that we didn't exactly make a big dent in the multi-billion rupee wastage. And because we still didn't realise that building another reservoir or sufficiently reducing leakages in our water system was a topmost priority. For five straight years.
In other words PBB will not make you any dumber than you already are and there is absolutely no need for bean-counters to raise it to the level of a God.
You can read the PBB manual used at our MOF if you haven't read some good fiction for a long time.
