Funds  to  states  under  various  programmes  are allocated as per the annual plan approved by the empowered committee.  The allocations of funds made to states under various programmes are adequate to meet the targets. MGNREGA is  a  demand  driven  programme,  hence,  no  allocation  of  funds  is  made.  The  detail  of  fund allocated under different programmes in the State of Tamil Nadu are given at Annexure - I. No district-wise ex-ante allocation is made by the Central Government.
