sagginyou,

There is a DoPT circular to all government department and Ministries (all PA's), to make specific budgetary provisions based on The Second Administrative Reforms Commission recommendation that Government earmark 1% of the funds for all flagship programs towards Updating Records, Improving Infrastructure, Creating Manuals and Establishing Public Record Offices.

The total amount will definitely come to the figure that you mentioned (5000 to 10000 crores) over a period of 2 or 3 years.

Please see this thread:
