Projects under BRGF Programme

Backward Regions Grant Fund (BRGF) Programme is being implemented in 272 identified backward districts of the country. As per the BRGF Guidelines, the Annual Action Plans prepared by the Panchayats and Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) are consolidated into the District Plans by the District Planning Committees. The Ministry of Panchayati Raj releases funds for the district to the States on the basis of such District Plans duly forwarded by the concerned State Governments. As reported by the States, these funds are utilised for developmental works like construction of Anganwadi centres, Panchayat Ghars, roads, culverts, bridges, community halls, water supply etc.
