Delayed spending by states may help govt save Rs 30,000 cr this FY

The Centre anticipates saving ₹30,000 crore in centrally sponsored schemes this fiscal year due to delayed state spending and improved monitoring. These savings may be allocated to other expenditures. Key flagship schemes under scrutiny include Ayushman Bharat and MGNREGS. Efforts to rationalise scheme numbers and funding shares between the Centre and states are ongoing.
