Restructuring of Twenty Point Programme
The TPP, in its present form, was last restructured in 1986. The need for further restructuring of TPP 86 is being felt constantly due to launching of several new schemes/programmes by the Central Government on the bases of new initiatives while some others are in the nature of replacement/modification of earlier schemes. Also some of the existing programmes are required to be deleted as they have lost their relevance in the present scenario or achieved the desired objectives. An exercise for restructuring of TPP is in progress in consultation with Central Nodal Ministeries and State/UT Administration.
