## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT (SADHVI NIRANJAN JYOTI)

(a)  &  (b)  Yes,  Sir.  Under  Deendayal  Antyodaya  Yojana-  National  Rural  Livelihoods  Mission (DAY-NRLM),  earlier  the  households  included  in  the  Below  Poverty  Line  (BPL)  list  were considered the target group. Subsequently, from 2014-15 onwards, the criteria has been changed. All  households  with  at  least  one  deprivation,  as  per  the  Socio  Economic  and  Caste  Census (SECC) 2011 database, are included in the DAY-NRLM target group. In addition, all households identified  through  the  process  of  Participatory  Identification  of  Poor  (PIP)  and  vetted  by  the Gram Sabha can also be covered under the Programme.

(c) & (d) The Ministry of Rural Development is implementing Deendayal Antyodaya Yojana National Rural Livelihoods Mission (DAY-NRLM) across the country in a mission mode with the  objective  of  organizing  the  rural  poor  women  into  Self  Help  Groups  (SHGs),  and continuously  nurturing  and  supporting  them  to  take  up  economic  activities  till  they  attain appreciable increase in income over a period of time to improve their quality of life and come out of abject poverty.

DAY-NRLM also has a sub-scheme namely Start-up Village Entrepreneurship Programme  (SVEP)  to  promote  entrepreneurship  at  village  level.  The  block  is  the  unit  of implementation of SVEP. The objective of the scheme is to help the rural poor (SHGs) to setup  enterprises  at  the  village  level  in  non-agricultural  sectors.  Besides  providing  start-up capital, a cadre of Community Resource Persons-Enterprise Promotion (CRP-EP) is set up to provide business support services to the enterprises.

Mahila Kisan Sashaktikaran Pariyojana (MKSP), which is another sub-scheme of DAYNRLM, aims at meeting the specific needs of women farmers to enable them to achieve socioeconomic  empowerment.  The  primary  objective  of  the  MKSP  is  to  empower  women  in agriculture by making systematic investments to enhance their participation and productivity, as also create and sustain their agriculture-based livelihoods. The scheme also supports development of a pool of Community Resource Persons to enable the community institutions to manage their activities.

During the last three years i.e 2018-2021 (up to January, 2021), 2,63,52,365 Households have  been  mobilized  under  DAY-NRLM  and  14,57,213  Self  Help  Groups  (SHGs)  have  been promoted. Additionally, in the last three years 1.02 Crore SHGs have been disbursed 1,913.84 Lakh Crore of credit through Banks. Further, under SVEP 1,13,159 enterprises have been formed during the last three years. Under MKSP, more than 38 lakh Mahila Kisans have been supported. Overall, more than 1.10 Crore Mahila Kisans have been supported under the Mission.The Statewise details of the beneficiaries under NRLM during the last three years including Maharashtra are provided at Annexure .
