## ANSWER

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

(a) Under Shyama Prasad Mukherji Rurban Mission, the State of Maharashtra has been allocated twenty (20) clusters located in ten (10) districts. There is no Rurban cluster in the Washim Yavatmal Parliamentary Constituency.  There is one Rurban cluster in the Parbhani Parliamentary  Constituency,  viz.,  Ashti  Cluster,  District  Jalna.    The  details  of  the  projects approved in Detailed Project Reports (DPRs), district-wise, are annexed Annexure-1 .

(b) Under  the  Mission,  there is  no  provision  for  State-wise  or  district-wise allocation of funds.   However, the funds are being released to States/UTs based on fulfillment of certain conditions as stipulated in the Framework of Implementation (FOI) of the Mission and the advisories issued by the Ministry from time to time.  The details of total funds released to the State of Maharashtra till 31.03.2022 are as follows:

| Critical Gap Funds (CGF)                                      | 84.400                                                        | 56.267                                                        | 56.267                                                        | 140.667                                                       |
| Administrative Funds (Total Fund Approved = 2% of CGF)        | 7.000                                                         | 3.480                                                         | 0.000                                                         | 7.000                                                         |

(c)    The details of the works completed, ongoing and yet to start as on 31.03.2022 clusterwise are as per Annexure-1. The details of financial progress cluster-wise for Rurban clusters in Maharashtra as on 31.03.2022 are placed at Annexure-2 .

(d)    As per the Framework of Implementation, all the cluster development activities were to be completed within three years from the time of approval of the clusters. However, cluster development involves a complex design, integrated planning with involvement of various line departments  at  State,  District,  Block  and  Gram  Panchayat  level  functionaries.  This  type  of integrated  planning  was  a  relatively  new  approach  for  all  stakeholders.  Therefore,  initial Mission activities including cluster selection, Integrated Cluster Action Plan (ICAP) preparation, Detailed Project Reports (DPRs) preparation, institutionalization, capacity building  and  subsequent  on-ground  execution  of  projects  took  longer  than  anticipated. Planning for cluster also involves quasi-judicial processes like public hearings, planning areas notification, spatial planning, and service-level benchmarking, enforcement etc.  Projects were delayed  because  of  revision  of  DPRs  based  on  the  changing  perception  of  the  need  by  the District Level Empowered Committee (DLEC).
