Road Connectivity Project for Left Wing Extremism Areas (RCPLWEA)

*Balance road length is less than the difference of sanctioned and completed length due to the reasons that some projects were completed with less than the sanctioned length due to reduction in road length, change in alignment, construction of part length by other agencies, etc.

The road length sanctioned under all  three  phases  of  the  said  yojana  and  their  work  progress report  in  each  District  of  Odisha  is  given  at Annexure. Details  of  projects  can  be  seen  at www.omms.nic-> progress monitoring->State MPR Abstract Report.

(c)     A sum of Rs.21,630.75 crore has been released as central share of programme fund as on 23rd  March  2022  and  an  expenditure  of  Rs.28,545.28  crore  (including  state  share)  has  been incurred towards implementation of the PMGSY in the State of Odisha.

(d)     No Sir. There is no paucity of funds under PMGSY.  As on 01.04.2021, the state had an unspent balance of Rs.1,368.88 crore (excluding Security Deposits). Rs.400 crore central funds were  released  to  the  state  during  the  financial  year  2021-22.  The  unspent  balances  as  on  23 March  2022  (including  state  share)  with  the  state  is  Rs.  653.15  crore.
