## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE FOR JAL SHAKTI

## (SHRI BISHWESWAR TUDU)

(a)  and  (b) Water  resources  projects  are  planned,  funded,  executed,  and  maintained  by  the  State Governments themselves as per their own resources and priorities. Role of Government of India is limited to providing  technical  support  and,  in  some  cases,  partial  financial  assistance  under  the  existing  schemes implemented by the Ministry of Jal Shakti.  However, major & medium irrigation and multi-purpose projects located on inter-state rivers, as well as flood control projects, are appraised for techno-economic viability in Central Water Commission (CWC) under this Ministry. After appraisal, the viable projects are put up for acceptance  before  the  Advisory  Committee  on  Irrigation,  Flood  Control  &  Multipurpose  Projects  of Ministry of Jal Shakti (Advisory Committee).

During 2018-19 to 2020-21, total 57 nos. of projects have been accepted by the Advisory Committee, as per details at Annexure-I .

(c) This  Ministry  is  providing  financial  assistance  to  dams  and  water  resources  projects  under  Pradhan Mantri  Krishi  Sinchayee  Yojana  (PMKSY).  PMKSY  is  an  umbrella  scheme,  consisting  of  two  major components, namely, Accelerated Irrigation Benefits Programme (AIBP), and Har Khet Ko Pani (HKKP) implemented by Ministry of Jal Shakti. HKKP, in turn, consists of four sub-components, 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 component. In addition,  PMKSY  also  consists  of  two  components  -  (i)  Per  Drop  More  Crop  (PDMC)  component implemented by Department of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare & (ii) Watershed Development component (WDC) implemented by Department of Land Resources (DoLR).

Apart from the above, since August, 2019, Government of India in partnership with States, is implementing Jal Jeevan Mission (JJM) after subsuming the then National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP), for successful implementation of drinking water projects in rural areas.

Quantum of funds sanctioned toward central assistance (CA) under each of the above categories during last three years, particularly for Gujarat, are tabulated below.
