The total amount for the programme is a whopping Rs 2.11 lakh crore, out of which a significant Rs 1.35 lakh crore is via recap bonds.

There was little difference in the treatment outcomes of those taking high-dose methadone or burprenorphine, with heroin addiction treatment success rates ranging from 72.7 percent for those in the methadone group to 20 percent for those patients on a low-dose of methadone.
