Gaps and inconsistencies in the source
Source arithmetic error: Year 3 "Total CCD Cost" is stated as 55, but its components (Salary 48 + Administration 5 + Travel 3) sum to 56. The Total column states 291, but the component rows (253+25+14) sum to 292. Every other year and the grand total of ₹2,000 lakh reconcile exactly.

Navigation error: this same page is linked from the main menu under two different labels — "Special Central Assistance" and "Pilot Dairy Development Project". This page contains no dairy-related content at all — which is why the /schemes/dairy page below has nothing to show.
