## ANSWER

MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) OF THE MINISTRY OF STATISTICS AND PROGRAMME IMPLEMENTATION; MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) OF THE MINISTRY OF PLANNING AND MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF CULTURE

## (RAO INDERJIT SINGH)

- (a) The Aspirational Districts Programme aims at rapid transformation of relatively under-developed districts. Districts are monitored monthly across sectors such as Health and Nutrition, Education, Basic Infrastructure, Agriculture & Water Resources and Financial Inclusion & Skill Development. Aspirational districts have shown improvement since inception of the programme. The  Aspirational districts'  performance  is  monitored  on  the  basis  of  progress  made  on  these indicators  which  is  available  in  the  public  domain  on  the  Champions  of  Change  Dashboard (http://championsofchange.gov.in/site/coc-home/).
- (b) Under the Aspirational Districts Programme, districts undertake various developmental projects to address  critical  gaps  using  the  financial  grants  they  win  through  the  programme's  delta  ranking method. The details of funds sanctioned and utilized under ADP by all the Aspirational Districts

over the last five years are provided in Annexure, including Kerala. Only Wayanad district is part of ADP in Kerala, with an amount sanctioned of Rs. 18.6 Cr and an amount utilized of Rs. 9.75 Cr.

- (c) and  (d)  There  have  been  two  independent  assessments  of  the  functioning  and  impact  of  the Aspirational Districts Programme (ADP).
- (i) UNDP made a comprehensive appraisal of this programme
- (ii) Institute for Competitiveness Assessment (a team of expert led by Prof. Michael Porter of Harvard Business school) made a detailed assessment of the programme

The UNDP report titled 'Aspirational Districts Programme: An Appraisal,' submitted in December 2020,  confirmed  that  significant  progress  has  been  made  in  various  aspects  such  as  sector-wise growth, better governance through convergence, and accelerated development through competitive federalism.  This  progress  has  been  driven  by  factors  including  strong  leadership,  real-time monitoring, data-driven decision-making, and capacity building.

Additionally, the Institute for Competitiveness highlighted that nearly all districts in the ADP have shown improvement on key development parameters compared to the baseline, with the programme successfully  advancing  social  impact  and  justice  by  targeting  the  benefits  towards  the  most disadvantaged areas. The delta ranking system has played a crucial role in fostering a competitive and  dynamic  culture,  which  has  motivated  several  low-performing  districts  to  enhance  their standings over the past three years.

- (e) At present there is no proposal to add more districts under the Aspirational Districts Programme.
