Abstract: The purpose of this study, titled ― Central Assistance to North Eastern States: A Comparative Analysis, is to assess the impact of change in recommendations of the Fourteenth Finance Commission and Union Budget 2015-16 on the North Eastern States of India. The study mainly focuses on the revised pattern of Central Assistance that is allotted to the NE States for the period 2015-16 (first year of the FFC term) as compared to 2014-15 (final year of the TFC term). In this project, the components of Central Assistance that we seek to look into are Block Grants, Grants-in-Aid and (prospective) data on Centrally Sponsored Schemes (CSS). Through this analysis, we have made an attempt to address the various claims regarding the adverse impact of the changed pattern of financial assistance.
