HKKP,  in  turn, consists of four sub-components, being Command Area Development & 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  Watershed  Development component  (WDC)  which  is  being  implemented  by  Department  of  Land  Resources,  Ministry  of  Rural Development. CAD&WM is being implemented pari-passu with AIBP under PMKSY.

During 2016-17 to 2023-24, till date, Rs. 766.31 crore has been released as central assistance under the scheme, and irrigation potential of 1.8 lakh hectare has been created during  2016-2023  under  these  projects.  Further,  under  SMI  component  of  PMKSY-HKKP,  258  schemes have  been  completed,  under  which  irrigation  potential  of  64.65  thousand  hectares  has  been  created,  and central  assistance  of  Rs.  987.69  crore  till  date.  In  addition,  under  RRR  of  water  bodies  component  of PMKSY-HKKP, 24 water bodies have been rejuvenated with additional irrigation potential creation of 33 thousand hectares. Total central assistance provided is Rs. 37.70 crore till date.

Apart  from  the  above,  under  PMKSY-PDMC,  356.09  thousand  hectare  area  have  been  brought under  micro  irrigation  in  Madhya  Pradesh  with  central  assistance  of  Rs.  776.12  crore  during  2016-17  to 2023-24 (till  date).
