- (c) & (d): The details of road works constructed under the Scheme since 2014, State/UTwise  are  as  per  Annexure-I. The  Government  of  India  has  taken  a  decision  to  accelerate execution of PMGSY in all States by providing connectivity to eligible habitations as per the Core Network of PMGSY by March, 2019.
- (e): During the current year, the States have been allocated a total length of 61,000 km for completion as per the details given in Annexure-II.
- (f): Some of the States have reported certain difficulties in implementation of the Scheme viz.  inadequate  execution  and  contracting  capacity;  limited  working  season;  difficult  terrain particularly in Hill States; scarcity of the construction materials; adverse climatic situation, etc. The  Ministry  of  Rural  Development  has  taken  a  number  of  initiatives  to  meet  the  above challenges faced by the States; like engagement of Central Public Sector Undertakings (CPSUs) in  some  States  to  augment  execution  capacity,  contractor's  Outreach  Programmes  in  States  to attract the Contractors in the implementation of the Programme. Further, in order to encourage

locally available materials and use of green technologies, guidelines were issued by the Ministry, wherein the State  Governments are required to propose minimum 15% of total length of annual proposals under New technologies such as Cement stabilization, Lime stabilization, Cold mix, Waste  plastics,  Cell  filled  concrete,  Paneled  cement  concrete  pavement,  Fly  ash  etc.  The Ministry  has  also  been  constantly  reviewing  the  progress  of  the  programme  in  the  State. Provision  of  solutions  to  problems  and  handholding  and  assistance  to  States  especially  in technical matters is being done by the Ministry and National Rural Infrastructure Development Agency (NRIDA).
