This dashboard encapsulates the following schemes:

1.   Livestock Health and Disease Control Program (LHDCP)

2.   National Livestock Mission (NLM)

3.   Animal Husbandry Infrastructure Development Fund (AHIDF)

4.   National Program for Dairy Development Fund (NPDD)

5.   Rashtriya Gokul Mission (RGM)

6.   Supporting Dairy Co-operatives and Farmer Producer Organizations (SDCFPO)

7.   Dairy Processing & Infrastructure Development Fund (DIDF)

Equipped with the ability to track the status of indi-vidual scheme components, both at a pan-India, as well as state level, the Minister’s Dashboard enables the scheme owners to make policy interventions and improve decision-making basis the dynamic data that is captured and periodically refreshed on it. Further, it offers a visual snapshot of the details of various schemes, state performances, achievements and gaps, and other associated data on a single dashboard.
