## THE MINISTER OF STATE FOR WATER RESOURCES, RIVER DEVELOPMENT AND GANGA REJUVENATION (DR. SANJEEV KUMAR BALYAN)

(a) The  Ministry  provides  technical  guidance  to  State  Governments  through  Central Water Commission (CWC) and Ganga Flood Control Commission (GFCC) in formulation of flood  management projects.  During  XII  Plan,  a  total  of  632  projects  for  Rs.58594.59  crore were received for techno-economic appraisal out of which 305 projects at an estimated cost of Rs.13262.78  crore  were  cleared  by  the  appraisal  agencies.  During  XII  Plan,  State  of Karnataka, 8 projects have been received for techno-economic appraisal, out of which 7 have been cleared and one has been returned. As on date, no project is pending for appraisal. The State-wise status is given at Annex-1.

(b) & (c)   The subject of flood management being under purview of the States, the schemes for flood control are formulated and implemented by concerned States as per their priority. The Union Government supplements the efforts of the States by providing technical guidance and  also  promotional  financial  assistance  for  management  of  floods  in  critical  areas.  The examination & appraisal of the projects depends on timely compliance by State Governments on observations of appraisal agencies.
