## ANSWER

## MINISTER FOR WOMEN AND CHILD DEVELOPMENT (SHRIMATI SMRITI ZUBIN IRANI)

(a)       Under Pradhan Mantri Matru Vandana Yojana (PMMVY), maternity benefits amounting to  Rs.226.93  crores  (including  Central  and  State  share)  have  been  paid  to  more  than  5.69 lakhs eligible beneficiaries since inception of the scheme and till 25.01.2022 in Chhattisgarh.

(b)  & (c)       The funds are released to the States/UTs on the basis of indicative targets and utilisation  of  released  funds.  Further,  the  funds  under  PMMVY  are  released  State/UT-wise. Thus, the Government does not maintain district-wise amount of funds released and utilization under PMMVY. However, District-wise and Year-wise, number of beneficiaries enrolled since inception  of  the  scheme  and  till  25.01.2022  in  respect  of  Chhattisgarh  is  annexed. The  yearwise  details  of  funds  released  under  PMMVY  to  the  State  Government  of  Chhattisgarh  and Utilization reported by the State Government of Chhattisgarh are as under:

| Year                       |   Funds Released (Rupees in Crores) |   Utilization Reported* (Rupees in Crores) |
|----------------------------|-------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------|
| 2017-18                    |                               43.83 |                                       7.69 |
| 2018-19                    |                               20.26 |                                      49.96 |
| 2019-20                    |                               52.93 |                                      82.26 |
| 2020-21                    |                                9.66 |                                      58.86 |
| 2021-22 (As on 25.01.2022) |                               38.66 |                                      32.34 |

*  This  includes  both  Centre  and State share inclusive of maternity benefit and Administrative Expenditure.

(d)         Disbursement  of  maternity  benefits  of  ₹5,000/-  to  the  eligible  beneficiaries  under Pradhan  Mantri  Matru  Vandana  Yojana  (PMMVY)  continued  even  during  the  outbreak  of COVID-19 pandemic.  The  eligible  beneficiary  received  cash  incentive  amounting  to  ₹5,000/directly  to  their  Bank/Post  Office  Account  linked  to  her  Aadhaar  Number  in  Direct  Benefit Transfer (DBT) mode in three installments.
