## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATISTICS & PROGRAMME IMPLEMENTATION [SHRI D.V. SADANANDA GOWDA]

(a):  Government through the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation  monitors  on-going  central  sector infrastructure projects  costing  Rs.  150  crores  and  above  on  time  and  cost overruns through its online computerized monitoring system (OCMS)

on the basis of information provided by the project implementation agencies. As on 31 st  December 2016, 1186 projects costing Rs. 150 crores and above were on the monitor of this ministry.  State-wise number of central sector projects along with cumulative expenditure  for  the  last  three  years  are  at  Annexure.    Funds  for these projects are not allocated State/UT wise.

(b):  The  responsibility  of  actual  implementation  of  these  projects lies with the nodal Administrative Ministries / project implementation agencies. As soon as the project is approved by the competent  authority,  concerned  project  implementing  agencies/ Administrative  Ministries  furnish  the  basic  information  including completion  schedules  on  the  OCMS  of  this  Ministry.  The  detail  of ongoing projects along with their completion schedules is available in the Flash Report for the month of December 2016 at www.cspm.gov.in/publication.

(c)  to  (e)  :  Of  these  1186  projects,  94  projects  are  delayed  and showing cost overruns. The detail of these projects is available in Annexure - VII of the Flash Report for the month of December 2016 at www.cspm.gov.in/publication. The reasons for delay are projectspecific. However, as reported by the project implementing agencies,  the  main  reasons  for  delay  in  timely  completion  of  the projects  are  law  and  order  problems,  delay  in  land  acquisition, geological conditions, delay in environment and forest clearances, rehabilitation and resettlement issues, local body  / municipal permissions, utility shifting, contractual issues, etc. These reasons at  times  also  result  in  non-utilisation  of  funds  allocation  in  full  in respect of some of the projects.

The major steps undertaken to ensure timely completion of projects include: rigorous project appraisal; on line computerized monitoring system  (OCMS)  for better monitoring; setting up of standing committees  in  the  Ministries  for  fixation  of  responsibilities;  and setting  up  of  Central  Sector  Project  Coordination  Committees

(CSPCCs) in states under Chief Secretaries for removal of bottlenecks and for facilitating and speedy implementation of major projects.
