## STATEMENT IN REPLY TO PART (a) TO (f) OF LOK SABHA STARRED QUESTION NO. *183 TO BE ANSWERED ON 15.03.2022

(a) to (c) In order to achieve the target of 'Housing for All' in rural areas, the Ministry of Rural Development is implementing Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yojana- Gramin (PMAY-G) with effect from 1 st April 2016 to provide assistance to eligible rural households with an overall target to construct 2.95 crore pucca houses with basic amenities by March, 2024.

During  the  period  of  Covid-19  pandemic  induced  nation-wide  lockdown,  all  construction activities  including  construction  of  houses  under  PMAY-G  were  also  affected.   In  addition  to this, the main challenges in implementation of PMAY-G include the delay in release of Central & State Share from State Treasury to State Nodal Account of PMAY-G, cases of unwillingness of  beneficiaries,  permanent  migration,  disputed  succession  of  deceased  beneficiaries,  delay  in allotment of land to landless beneficiaries by the States/UTs and at times General/Assembly/Panchayat elections, unavailability of building materials.

Under  PMAY-G,  minimum  60%  of  targets  are  earmarked  for  Scheduled  Castes  (SCs)/ Scheduled  Tribes  (STs)  beneficiaries.  Further,  as  far  as  possible,  15%  of  the  total  funds  are earmarked  for  Minorities  at  the  National  level  for  households  to  be  covered  as  per  Socio Economic Caste Census (SECC) 2011 as verified by the Gram Sabhas. The allocation of targets for  Minorities  among  the  States/UTs  is  on  the  basis  of  the  proportionate  rural  population  of Minorities in the respective State/UT as per Census 2011 data.

The  cumulative  number  of  houses  sanctioned  and  completed  for  SCs,  STs,  Minorities  under PMAY-G is given in Annexure-I.

(d)  to  (f)  The  beneficiaries  under  PMAY-G  are  identified  based  on  the  housing  deprivation parameters  prescribed  under  Socio  Economic  Caste  Census  (SECC)  2011  and  after  due verification  by  the  Gram  Sabha  and  completion  of  Appellate  Process,  Gram  Panchayat-wise Permanent Wait List (PWL) is prepared which is a transparent process. In addition, monitoring is done through the meetings of DISHA committees by the Honourable Members of Parliament, Area Officers & National Level Monitors including regular review  at various levels and  social audit of the scheme.

The  State/UT  wise  details  of  unspent  balance  available  in  the  State  Nodal  Accounts  (SNAs) under PMAY-G as on 10 th March, 2022 is given in Annexure-II.

The   Ministry  is  ensuring  timely  release  of  Central  Share  of  funds  to  States/UTs  as  per provisions  of  the Framework  For  Implementation  (FFI) of  PMAY-G  and  guidelines  of  the Ministry of Finance.

The details  of  Central  Share  of  funds  released  to  the  State  Government  of  Maharashtra  under PMAY-G during last  three  years  and  the  current  year  and  the  number  of  houses  constructed under PMAY-G in State of Maharashtra and Union Territory of Andaman & Nicobar Islands is given in Annexure-III .

The target date of completion of the scheme is March 2024.
