## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF ROAD TRANSPORT AND HIGHWAYS (SHRI NITIN JAIRAM GADKARI)

(a) & (b) The work of preparation of Detailed Project Report (DPR) for Kalaburagi bypass has been foreclosed. However, Ministry has already constructed a ring road bypassing Gulbarga city and cutting across three NHs, namely NH-150E, NH-150 & NH-50. Public Works Department  (PWD),  Government  of  Karnataka  had  submitted  a proposal to this Ministry for construction of bypass road (Outer ring road) to Gulbarga city during September, 2018. The proposal was returned to the Government of Karnataka in October, 2018. State Government of Karnataka had also requested to declare the green field alignment of the outer ring road around Gulbarga as National Highway. Ministry keeps on receiving proposals from various State Governments/Union Territories (UTs), etc., including from the State of  Karnataka  for  declaration  /  up-gradation  of  State  roads  as

National Highways (NHs). Ministry considers declaration of some of the State roads as NHs from time to time based on the requirements of connectivity, inter-se priority and availability of funds.

The details of bypass/ring roads approved under Bharatmala Pariyojana Phase-I in the year 2017 are annexed.

- (c) The  funds  allocated  to  the  State  of  Karnataka  including Kalaburagi  district  for  development  and  maintenance  of  National Highways (NH) during the last three years and current year is Rs. 29425  crore  out  of  which  about  Rs.  24427  crore  have  been released/incurred so far.

The Ministry also allocates funds to State Governments / Union Territories for development and maintenance of State Roads under the  Central  Road  &  Infrastructure  Fund  (CRIF)  and  Economic Importance & Interstate Connectivity (EI&ISC) Schemes as per the provisions of the Central Road and Infrastructure Fund (CRIF) Act, 2000 as amended by the Finance Act, 2019. The funds accrued/allocated to the State of Karnataka under these schemes is Rs.  1915  crore,  out  of  which  about  Rs.  1728  crore  has  been released/incurred.
