Amount of Rs. 35,000 crore shown under Demand for Grants No. 40, titled \u2018Transfers to States\u2019 ; use of this Demand for Grants has several administrative advantages<\/p>\n

The use of the Demand titled \u2018Transfers to States\u2019 in no way implies that expenditure cannot be incurred by the Centre<\/span><\/h2>\n

DELHI MAY 10, 2021:<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is with reference to the media report in \u2018The Print\u2019 entitled \u201cThe reality of Modi Government\u2019s vaccine funding: Rs. 35,000 crore for States, zero for Centre.\u201d<\/p>\n

It is factually incorrect to state that there is no provision for expenditure on COVID-19 vaccination by the Central Government.\u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0The\u00a0amount of Rs. 35,000 crore has been shown under the Demand for Grants No. 40, titled \u2018Transfers to States\u2019<\/strong>.\u00a0 Vaccines have actually been, and are being, procured by and paid for by the Centre through this head of account. \u00a0The use of this Demand for Grants has several administrative advantages.<\/strong>\u00a0Firstly, because expenditure on vaccine is one-off expenditure outside the normal Centrally Sponsored Schemes of the Health Ministry<\/strong>, separate funding ensures easy monitoring and management of these funds.\u00a0\u00a0Also, this grant is exempted from the quarterly expenditure control restrictions applicable to other demands.<\/strong>\u00a0This helps to ensure that there is no hindrance in the vaccination programme. The amount provided under this head for vaccinations is actually operated by the Ministry of Health. Vaccines are passed on to the States as grants in kind and the actual administration of vaccines is being done by States. Further, there is enough administrative flexibility to change the nature of the Scheme between grants in kind and other forms of grants.<\/p>\n

Therefore, as pointed out in the report itself, for ensuring adequate availability of funding for vaccination, the \u201cbudget classification does not really matter\u201d.\u00a0The use of the Demand titled \u2018Transfers to States\u2019 in no way implies that expenditure cannot be incurred by the Centre<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
