ANSWER THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF URBAN DEVELOPMENT (RAO INDERJIT SINGH)

- (a) &  (c)      Yes,  Madam.  The  Government  had  launched  the  Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT) for assisting the States and Union Territories (UTs) in development of  basic  urban  infrastructure  in  500  cities.    Under  the  Mission the  Ministry  approves  the  State  Annual  Action  Plan  (SAAP)  of the States/UTs and releases the Central Assistance for implementation  of  the  same.    The  SAAP  of  the  States/UTs  for 2015-16  and  2016-17  has  already  been  approved.  The  funds released to the States are in the Annexure.

To  ensure  effective  utilization  of  funds  released  under  the Mission,  the  Ministry  has  communicated  the  entire  Mission period  allocation  to  the  States/UTs.  This  will  enable  them  to plan in advance, identify projects in priority sectors, ensure land availability  and  take  preparatory  action  to  take  the  projects forward expeditiously. Besides this, the States are fully empowered  regarding  preparation,  appraisal  and  approval  of Detailed Project Reports (DPRs) and their implementation. Further, the funds have been made fully fungible and States can use them as per actual progress of different projects.

- (d)         No, Madam.
- (e) Water supply is a priority component under the AMRUT. An objective of the Mission is universal coverage of water supply in all Mission cities. There is no special package for the purpose.
