The permissible carryover of unspent balance would be 10% of the Central allocation.
Any excess over the permissible limit of carryover will be adjusted in the second installment. The central assistance to the designated Nodal Agency Agriculture department will be released as per the approved mechanism of the Ministry of Finance. The Nodal Agency Department should ensure that the Central Assistance released under the Scheme is utilized in accordance with the approved State and District Plans. Since the amounts of the second and final installment of the allocation will depend upon the progress of utilization of funds by the states the state should ensure that the funds released are utilized promptly properly and progress reports are sent to the DAC at the earliest. Non-utilization of central assistance will hinder the further release of funds.
The performance of the states will be reflected in the Performance Budget document of this Ministry.
The Department of Agriculture and Cooperation may effect changes in the scheme guidelines other than those affecting the financing pattern as the scheme evolves whenever such changes are considered necessary. Depending upon the state’s needs a state may choose to use its entire allocated RKVY funds under the Stream-I only.
