## ANSWER

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

(a)  The details of roads constructed under the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) during the last three years and current year, State/ UT-wise, including in Odisha are given at Annexure-I.

(b)  The criteria for road construction targets are set annually in consultation with the States, keeping  in  view  the  balance  works  left  with  the  States,  capacity  of  the  State  Executing Agencies and anticipated sanction of projects during the year.

(c) to (d) Maintenance of roads constructed under the programme is the responsibility of the State Governments and all road works are covered by initial five year maintenance contract to be  entered  into  along  with  the  construction  contract,  with  the  same  contractor,  as  per  the Standard Bidding Document. Maintenance funds are to be provided by the State Government. Maintenance of roads beyond 5 years is also to be done by the State Government.

Since  2016-17,  financial  incentives  are  being  given  to  top  performing  States,  which  show higher achievement in the year on the basis of set parameters. These funds are to be used by the States  for  renewal  of  roads  after  5  year  Defect  Liability  Period  (DLP).  The current parameters for determining the best performing States for grant of financial incentives under PMGSY, which are applicable since 2020-21 are as under:-

- (i) Achievement of Target Length during the year.
- (ii) Achievement of Target Habitations during the year.
- (iii) Length constructed using New Technology during the year.
- (iv) Expenditure on maintenance of roads within Defect Liability Period (DLP)
- (v) Road Length renewed during the year post DLP.
- (vi) Quality of maintenance works as brought out by National Quality Monitor Inspections.

The details of financial incentive released to States during the last 4 financial years and the current year are given at Annexure-II. (e)    As a measure of enhancing the focus on maintenance of roads during the defect liability period  (five  years  from  the  date  of  completion  of  road)  and  streamlining  the  delivery  of routine  maintenance  of  PMGSY  roads  on  the  basis  of  performance  based  maintenance contract, eMARG has been implemented in all the states. eMARG is an online platform, used by all the states, that monitors maintenance of PMGSY works for five years since the date of completion (i.e. under Defect Liability Period -DLP) eMARG is currently getting utilized across 27 states and 2 UTs by 1,254 (97%) PIUs. 11,466 (89%) contractors have been onboarded on eMARG. Out of 42957 roads under DLP, 93% have been registered on eMARG. Since FY 2019-20, payment of 4,27,810 bills amounting to a  total  of  Rs.  970  crore has  been  made  to  contractors  through  eMARG.  Out  of  which,  Rs.

444.00 crore has been paid during FY 2021-22.
