## ANSWER

MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) OF THE MINISTRY OF STATISTICS AND PROGRAMME IMPLEMENTATION AND MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT  CHARGE) OF  THE  MINISTRY  OF  PLANNING (RAO INDERJIT SINGH)

- (a): As per the latest information received from State Governments, State-wise Per  Capita  Net  State  Domestic  Product (NSDP) at current and constant (2011-12) prices for 2015-16 to 201718 are given in Annexure.

(b):  The Per Capita Net Value Added (NVA) for rural and urban area is estimated only for the Base-Year of National Account, and is given below:

| Per Capita Net Value Added (NVA) (in Rs.)   | Per Capita Net Value Added (NVA) (in Rs.)   | Per Capita Net Value Added (NVA) (in Rs.)   |
|---------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------|
| Year                                        | Rural                                       | Urban                                       |
| 2011-12                                     | 40,925                                      | 98,435                                      |

(c):  Government  is  focusing  on  inclusive  growth  as  reflected  in  its commitment of Sabka Saath,  Sabka Vikas. Various steps have been taken to address the rural urban disparity. 'Gaon, Gareeb aur Kisan' has been at the centre of government policies. Under the Pradhan Mantri Kisan Pension Yojana, small and marginal farmers will get a minimum fixed pension of Rs 3,000 per month on attaining the age of 60  years.  The  Government  has  launched  the  Pradhan  Mantri  Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana (PM-Kisan) with the objective of supplementing  the  financial  needs  of  farmers  in  procuring  various inputs to ensure proper crop health and appropriate yields, commensurate with the anticipated farm income. The Government is also  providing  boost  to  the  farmers'  income  through  Minimum Support  Price  (MSPs).  The  'Scheme  of  Fund  for  Upgradation  and Regeneration of Traditional Industries' (SFURTI) aims to set up more Common Facility Centers (CFCs) to facilitate cluster based development of Bamboo, Honey and Khadi. The Government is also encouraging  private  entrepreneurs  in  agriculture  and  also  focusing on  agricultural  infrastructure.  The  zero-budget  farming,  as  a  model for  farmers  is  being  considered  and  would  help  in  doubling  the farmers' income.  The Government will enable the creation of 10,000 new  Farmer  Producer  Organisations  (FPOs)  by  2022  to  ensure economies  of  scale  for  farmers  access  to  inputs  and  markets. Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana - Gramin (PMAY-G) aims to achieve the objective of 'Housing for All' by 2022. The Government's rural road scheme  has  brought  about  socio-economic  improvements.  Under phase three of PM Gram Sadak Yojana, 1.25 lakh kms of road is to be built in the next five years.
