It has generally been the practice to review and revise the items & norms of
assistance from State Disaster Response Fund (SDRF) and National Disaster Response
Fund (NDRF) after the award of successive Finance Commissions are accepted by the
Government. Government of India reviews/revises the norms of financial assistance from
SDRF/NDRF from time to time. Latest revision of items & norms from SDRF/NDRF has
been recently made on 28th November, 2013. There is no imminent proposal to modify the
guidelines of SDRF and NDRF in case of drought period exceeding 90 days.
