SUPPLEMENTARY WORKING PAPER- 5

CENTRAL SECTOR SCHEMES ON SOCIAL PROTECTION

1. INTRODUCTION
The working paper is a preliminary assessment of the social protection framework in Urban India.
The assessment is limited to understanding the evolution of some of the urban related schemes and
to document the presently operational schemes in India. An extensive compilation of existing schemes
of social protection (both urban specific and those for both rural and urban areas) has been done.
The schemes have been classified into the type of assistance that they provide as well as target
groups that they address. The presently operational schemes in India with respect to social protection
has been discussed as part of this working paper.

2. EVOLUTION OF SCHEMES FOR URBAN POOR

The urban poverty alleviation programmes in India started with an EIUS programme that focused on
basic services programme and in situ rehabilitation (Table 1). Many more schemes and programmes
came into force since then with similar such components including ILCS and NSDP. The first
programme to include issues such as land tenure and asset creation and management was ISHDP and
later BSUP. The first programme to more comprehensively address the issue was RAY that included
integration of real estate markets and institutional capacity building. The PMAY launched in 2014
includes the non-poor population in urban areas as well which makes it more inclusive and also
circumvents definitional as well as identification errors in estimating urban poor.

Social Protection Programmes in Urban India

3. TYPE OF SCHEMES BY SECTOR

The number of urban specific and total schemes operational in India by sector is shown in Figure 1.
The highest number of schemes are for livelihood and skill development in both overall and urban
categories. New initiatives like the smart cities mission have many projects that address the aspect
of livelihood development. The urban specific programmes with respect to women and children are
very few. There are no programmes for specially abled, homeless or for disaster risk reduction. There
are however, several schemes where urban specific criteria have been given for identification of
beneficiaries in the schemes that are implemented in both urban and rural areas. These relate to
nutrition programmes and education sector programmes.

4. TYPES OF SOCIAL PROTECTION MECHANISMS

Unconditional cash transfers include several types

Poverty-targeted cash transfers for poor people or households are based on their needs or a means
test. The main objective of such a program is to lift the household to some level of locally defined

 SUPPLEMENTARY WORKING PAPER- 5

minimum standard of living (minimum income or nationally defined poverty line). Usually, they
provide regular and predictable transfers. Common variants include guaranteed minimum income
programs, last-resort programs, targeted transfers for needy families, and so on.

Cash transfers for families with children and for families taking care of orphans or vulnerable children
aim to alleviate the cost of raising a child, rather than targeting poverty reduction. Family allowances
can take various forms, such as universal transfers for all children under a fixed age, child benefits
to specific groups of children, birth grants or demographically motivated incentives for multiple
births, and so on.

Public-private charity, such as zakat, uses private funds that are gathered by public institutions and
distributed to the individuals or households in need. Emergency support is given in cash (one time or
occasional) to individuals affected by emergencies or a shock caused by weather conditions, fire or
flooding, food crisis, human-caused crisis, economic downturn, or other.

The final example is non-contributory funeral grants and burial allowances where families may
receive a transfer, for example, to cover losses of income or extra costs associated with the death
of a family member.

Conditional cash transfers are periodic monetary benefits given to poor households or other
beneficiaries who comply with specific requirements. Program conditions are usually intended to
encourage investments in human capital, such as school attendance, immunizations, health check-
ups, nutrition clinics, and so on. Education conditional cash transfers are different from stipends in
that such transfers generally target families at high risk of dropout from schools (typically poor).

Social pensions (non-contributory) include (a) old-age social pensions or benefits paid to the elderly
from tax financed (rather than contribution-financed) sources; (b) disability social pensions or
benefits paid to support either a person with disability or a household with such a member; (c) war
veterans’ benefits paid in cash to war veterans, disabled veterans, and so on. Veterans’ benefits also
include support for education and other social services for veterans’ households as well as
survivorship pensions for families.

School feeding involves in-kind food transfers that provide meals or snacks for children at school to
encourage enrolment and attendance. They are also provided as take-home rations.

Public works provide income support in cash wages or food, in exchange for work. These programs
typically provide short-term employment at low wages for unskilled and semiskilled workers on
labour-intensive projects such as road construction and maintenance, irrigation infrastructure,
reforestation, and soil conservation. Public works programs are generally seen as a means of providing
income support to the poor in critical times, rather than as a way to get the unemployed back into
the labor market. In the latter case, they should be classified under active labor market programs.

 SUPPLEMENTARY WORKING PAPER- 5

Fee waivers and targeted subsidies include (a) housing and utility allowances and discounts to help
households meet the costs of housing and utilities; (b) health waivers and reduced medical fees
targeted to vulnerable groups to relieve them of the need to pay full or partial costs for health
services, such as government-subsidized health insurance premiums; (c) education fee waivers meant
to assist households in meeting the costs of schooling; (d) utility and electricity subsidies for those
who cannot afford full payments, given as rebates to their bills or write-offs of debt to utilities; and
(e) agricultural inputs subsidies.

Other social assistance includes (a) scholarships and school stipends meant to help households meet
the costs of schooling; (b) social care services, such as free or subsidized public care for the elderly
or disabled, family counselling, and child protection services; (c) other cash programs, including
merit-based benefits and benefits for families of prisoners.

5. TYPE OF SCHEMES BY ASSISTANCE MECHANISM

The social assistance mechanism under consideration include Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT);
Unconditional Cash Transfer (UCT); Unconditional in kind Transfer (UKT); Fee Waiver (FW); Social
Assistance (SA); School Feeding (SF); Public Works (PW); and Others (O). The CCTs can be seen to be
more for women and for poor and BPL families (Figure 2). The UKT schemes are more concentrated
for children, women and livelihood and skill development. The UCTs are more for children’s
education and homeless children. There are many schemes that are classified as others because they
do not have a specific type of assistance. Apart from this, there are many schemes that give multiple
types of social assistances simultaneously (Table 3). Sectors that have more than one type of
assistance include livelihood and skill development, poverty reduction, women and children. The
programmes and schemes are structured as multiple assistances to help improve/strengthen the
benefit delivery and address vulnerabilities in multiple mechanisms. Table 5 gives the scheme wise
categorisation of schemes by type of assistance.
