will decide in the order of obtained score under technical evaluation. The department may initially
allocate lesser target and number of centers and based on performance may further allocate target and
centers. Maximum Two Centers will be allocated for a particular district for a particular training partner
under one department.

However, CEO, BSDM or the secretary/principal secretary of the concerned department may relax or
make stringent or may modify the above procedure of target allocation/district/number of centers either

• The rationalization of district/s allocation, number of training centers and target allocation for a training
partner, shall be decided by the concerned department based on placement LoIs and marks obtained in
technical evaluation.
• In future the department may choose to allocate target in additional centers, sectors, job roles depending

roles.
