Hundreds of people could lose their jobs, if the Finance Ministry has its way in scrapping 120 central sector schemes in the coming 11th Five Year Plan.
In order to prevent spillover of these schemes into the 11th Plan, the Finance Ministry has proposed a budgetary allocation of Rs 50 crore for the Department of Expenditure, which would be used in relocation of manpower and meeting the establishment expenditure, till the schemes are wound up, sources said.
The move is aimed at ensuring that no funds are made available for schemes scheduled to close down at the end of the 10th Plan.
