Thereafter, the position of these districts in terms of backwardness” was evaluated against the two sets of socio-economic and basic amenities indicators. 90 Minority Concentration Districts in the State of Haryana Mewat and Sirsa District were identified and selected.
To focus the attention of government programmes and schemes on these districts, the following has been advised to the Central Ministries/Departments to prepare their plans in a manner that these districts get the required attention and resources:-
