Subject: Publication of BPL list (Guideline -3)

Ref: This Department No. 76/JS(DG)/007/SGSY/20-M-6/2005 dated 2nd April, 2007 and No 079/JS(DG)/2007/ SGSY/20-M-6/2005 datd 4th April, 2007

Sir / Madam,

In continuation of this department's guidelines quoted under reference I am directed to state hereunder the procedures to be adopted for identifying actual beneficiaries, who will come under the purview of different programmes targeted towards the B.P.L families. It has been decided in consultation with the Food and Supplies Department, Government of West Bengal that the cut off score for ascertaining the BPL families will be 33. In tea garden areas, the cut-off score will be 37 and in closed Tea gardens, all worker families will be treated as BPL families. It has further been decided that in respect of those Mouzas which have been totally washed away due to erosion of river the cut off marks for determining the BPL families of those areas will be reviewed after receiving relevant information from the districts.

2. In respect of IAY, the list of eligible families will be generated by running pre-defined queries (Total Score≤33 and P2=1). The permanent wait list for IAY beneficiaries will be generated from this list of eligible families after consideration of the Gram Sansad as per the following guidelines. The list will be taken up for consideration family-wise starting from the lowest score. Those whose names appear in the list but the Gram Sansad considers that the family is not eligible because (i) it has already received benefit under IAY/ PMGY (GA)/ SGRY (IBS) for construction of new house, (ii) there is factual mistake in the scores under one or more categories which will make the family ineligible (iii) the condition of the family has changed for the better, (iv) the family has left the area permanently etc., those should be clearly mentioned and a list of such persons showing the reasons for not considering their case for each family to be separately prepared & sent to the Gram Panchayat.
