Why this is here and not above
myScheme publishes no budget figure for any scheme. This one comes from the Union
Budget Expenditure Profile and is joined by name, so it is shown apart from the
checks and never counted in them. A scheme’s launch date, likewise, exists in
its gazette notification whether or not the portal repeats it. The checks
above ask only whether this portal tells a citizen, which is a different
and narrower question.
