Abstract

This study aimed to estimate the gap in terms of targeting the beneficiaries, coverage, access, and coordination-related issues. The gap or leakage ratios were estimated based on those socio-economic criteria. Besides, the study focused on identifying the needs of the beneficiaries and the required resources at the government end in order to fulfil those gaps. Despite having different types of SSNPs, this study emphasises three specific programmes aligned with the life cycle of a human being. Those are primary education stipend programmes (PESP), old age allowance (OAA), and widow allowance (WA). Three different programmes at three stages of human life: childhood, adulthood, and elderhood complement the entire life cycle. The OAA, WA, and PESP have beneficiaries of around 2.22 crore (MoF, 2022).
