## ANSWER THE MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) FOR YOUTH AFFAIRS & SPORTS (SHRI VIJAY GOEL)

(a) & (b) Sports is a State subject and promotion of sports and creation of sports infrastructure in the States is primarily the responsibility of the State  Government.  The  Central  Government  complements/supplements the efforts of the State Governments through various sports promotional schemes.

A Centrally Sponsored Scheme, namely, Panchayat Yuva Krida Aur Khel  Abhiyan  (PYKKA)  was  being  implemented  during  the  period  from

2008-09 to 2013-14. PYKKA Scheme was reviewed and renamed as Rajiv Gandhi  Khel  Abhiyan  (RGKA),  also  a  Centrally  Sponsored  Scheme  and was implemented during the period 2014-15 and 2015-16.

Under the PYKKA  Scheme,  inter-alia, funds were granted to States/UTs  for  development  and  maintenance  of  playgrounds  at  Village and  Block  Panchayats.  Under  Rajiv  Gandhi  Khel  Abhiyan  (RGKA),  there was  provision  for  creation  of  sports  infrastructure  at  block  level  and conduct of annual sports competitions.

A Scheme, namely, Urban Sports Infrastructure Scheme (USIS) was being  implemented  as  a  Central  Sector  Scheme  for  creation  of  Sports infrastructure  in  all  the  States/UTs  all  over  India  including  the  State  of Kerala during the period from 2010-11 to 2015-16.

A  new  Scheme  called  'Khelo  India  -  National  Programme  for Development of Sports' is being implemented by this Ministry as a Central Sector  Scheme  from  the  current  financial  year  2016-17.  This  Scheme, inter-alia, provides for creation of sports infrastructure facilities, namely, Synthetic Athletic Track, Synthetic Hockey Field, Synthetic Turf Football Ground,  Multipurpose  hall,  Swimming  pool,  etc.  This  scheme  is  also applicable all over India including Kerala.

All  these  schemes  are/were  demand-driven  schemes.  Proposals, as  and  when  received  from  States,  if  complete  in  all  respects  and technically feasible, are/were sanctioned subject to availability of funds. Funds are released to a State as and when the proposal for development of sports infrastructure is sanctioned to that State.

Details  of  playfields  developed  under  the  erstwhile  PYKKA  and sports infrastructure developed under the erstwhile RGKA and USIS and Khelo India during the year 2013-14, 2014-15, 2015-16 and 2016-17 are at

Annexure - I.

(c) & (d) A special package of Rs.200 crores for enhancement of sports facilities  in  the  State  of  Jammu  &  Kashmir  was  announced  by  Hon'ble Prime Minister in November, 2015. The package includes construction/renovation  of  the  sports  infrastructure  in  the  state.  This programme is under implementation. There is no proposal in this Ministry to  offer  any  special  package  to  any  other  State  including  Kerala  at present.
