## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE FOR FOOD PROCESSING INDUSTRIES (SHRI PRAHLAD SINGH PATEL)

(a)  to  (c): Ministry of Food Processing Industries (MoFPI) has been implementing Central Sector  umbrella  scheme-Pradhan  Mantri  Kisan  SAMPADA  Yojana  (PMKSY)  for  overall growth and development of food processing sector of the country including in the state of Bihar. Under  component  schemes  of  PMKSY,  MoFPI  provides  mostly  credit  linked  financial assistance (capital subsidy) in the form of grants-in-aid to entrepreneurs for setting up of food processing / preservation infrastructure, which may include cold storages, to minimize postharvest losses. Ministry does not provide financial assistance to set up standalone cold storage. PMKSY is not region or state specific but demand driven and financial assistance is provided to the eligible applicants selected on the basis of Expression of Interest (EoI) issued from time to  time  and  there  is  no  state  wise/  district  wise  allocation  of  funds.  The  details  of  budget allocated and expenditure incurred under PMKSY during 2016-17 to 2021-22 is mentioned in Annexure-I . The details of infrastructure projects sanctioned so far under component Schemes of  PMKSY  in  the  state  of  Bihar  including  total  project  cost,  grant-in-aid  approved,  grant released and total capacity of Cold Storage/ CA/MA Storage/ Frozen Store in the project are placed at Annexure II .
