taking up schemes adopting a project approach was introduced. This gives scope to get wide range
of schemes with varied objectives and physical targets which put together will help the all round
development of the targeted groups.

Board for consideration. After vetting by State Planning Board, it will be forwarded to Scheduled Caste
Development Department for placing before State Level/ Special Working Group for consideration.

Special Central Assistance to Special Component Plan (SCA to SCP)

4.248 The Special Central Assistance to Special Component Plan is provided by Government of
India to States for undertaking mainly economic development programmes for Scheduled Castes.
It is not on a schematic pattern. It will help to fill the gaps which the flows from the Central, State
and Local body plans are not in a position to fill. Out of the total funds received under SCA to SCP,
75 per cent of the fund will be distributed to the District Collectors on the basis of Scheduled Caste
population in the districts. The balance 25 per cent will be kept with the Director, Scheduled Caste
Development. Activities that can be taken up under SCA are to assist Scheduled Caste families
for taking up viable income generating activities, through a mix of institutional finance and subsidy.
The families may be provided assistance under SCA in a manner similar to those admissible under
NRLM/ Swarnjayanthi Gram Swarozgar Yojana. The Outlay and Expenditure details of SCA to SCP
from 2010-11 to 2014-15 (as on 31.10.2014) are given in Appendix 4.102
