Out of the 613 allocated PMKKs, 462 centres had been established covering Bundelkhand, Assam and Maharashtra. The State-wise number of allocated PMKKs is given at Annexure I.

As on date, 56 PMKKs have been de-allocated in 19 States including four PMKKs in Chitrakoot, Jalaun, Jhansi and Lalitpur districts of Bundelkhand and 7 PMKKs in Mumbai, Mumbai Suburban, Raigarh, Ratnagiri, Sindhudurg, Mumbai North West (PC) and Mumbai North East (PC) in State of Maharashtra due to non-compliance to the timeline to establish the centres as per PMKK Guidelines.
