“The Sory scheme does not have a separate budget allotment.
Basically, one can give a little from MPLAD and use it to reach convergence among all schemes.
But unfortunately, the MPLAD scheme has been frozen for two years.
So, there are no funds available.
But I still Trying to find convergence as far as possible, “said Amar.
