## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE FOR DRINKING WATER AND SANITATION (SHRI RAMESH CHANDAPPA JIGAJINAGI)

(a)to (c)The details of fund provided to States for implementation of National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP) in rural areas for the financial year 2015-16 is at Annexure .

There are instances where funds released were less than the allocation for the reasons  such  as'cut  imposed  as  per  guidelines  forinadmissible  expenditure  /  excess expenditure'or 'inadequate proposal from the State' under certain components of the programme with respect to the guidelines.

Under  Swachh  Bharat  Mission  (Gramin), Rs.  6362.96  crore were  provided  to States/UTs during 2015-16 and there is no case reported wherein funds were allocated but not released.
