## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE FOR JAL SHAKTI ( SHRI BISHWESWAR TUDU )

(a) Centrally sponsored scheme Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana (PMKSY) was launched during the year  2015-16,  with  an  aim  to  enhance  physical  access  of  water  on  farm  and  expand  cultivable  area  under assured irrigation,  improve  on-farm  water  use  efficiency,  introduce  sustainable  water  conservation  practices, etc.

PMKSY is an umbrella scheme, consisting, inter alia, of two major components being implemented by the Ministry of Jal Shakti, namely, Accelerated Irrigation Benefit Programme (AIBP), and Har Khet Ko Pani (HKKP).  HKKP,  in  turn, consists  of  four  sub-components:  Command  Area  Development  &  Water Management  (CAD&WM),  Surface  Minor  Irrigation  (SMI),  Repair,  Renovation  and  Restoration  (RRR)  of Water  Bodies,  and  Ground  Water  (GW)  Development.  However,  GW  Development  component  was provisionally approved till March, 2022 only.

In  addition,  PMKSY  has  Watershed  Development  (WD)  component  which  is  implemented  by Department of Land Resources. Further, during the period 2015-22, Per Drop More Crop (PDMC) component was also being implemented under PMKSY by the Department of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare.

(b) The details of works carried out under the four sub-components of Har Khet Ko Pani (HKKP) of PMKSY, namely, Command Area Development and Water Management (CAD&WM), Surface Minor Irrigation (SMI), Repair, Renovation and Restoration (RRR) of Water Bodies, and Ground Water (GW) Development in various States  of  the  country,  including  Rajasthan,  during  the  last  two  years  and  the  current  year  are  given  at Annexure-I.

- (c)  and  (d) The  scheme of PMKSY, except Ground Water and Per Drop More Crop components, has been approved by Government of India for the period 2021-22 to 2025-26, with the following targets:
- i.  AIBP  including  CAD&WM: Completion  of  60  ongoing  AIBP,  85  ongoing  CAD&WM  major/  medium projects, and inclusion of more projects for funding under AIBP. In addition, funding of two National projects, namely  Lakhwar  and  Renuka  projects,  has  also  been  approved.  Creation  of  13.88  lakh  hectare  irrigation potential under AIBP and 30.23 lakh cultivable command area coverage under CAD&WM has been envisaged during 2021-22 to 2025-26.
- ii.  PMKSY-HKKP: Creation of 3.7 lakh hectare of irrigation potential, and taking up new projects to create 0.8 lakh hectare of irrigation potential for coverage through surface minor irrigation and repair, renovation and restoration of water bodies, has been approved for the period 2021-22 to 2025-26. In addition, implementation of ground water component has been provisionally approved for 2021-22 only. Targeted benefits under ground water component was 82,290 hectare irrigation.
- iii. PMKSY-WD: Completion of sanctioned projects covering 49.5 lakh hectare rainfed/ degraded lands under watershed development component of PMKSY, along with 2.5 lakh hectare additional area to be brought under protective irrigation, has been approved for implementation during 2021-22 to 2025-26.
