## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE FOR JAL SHAKTI

## ( SHRI RAJ BHUSHAN CHOUDHARY )

(a) to (e) Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojna (PMKSY) is an umbrella scheme, consisting of two major components  being  implemented  by  the  Department  of  Water  Resources,  River  Development  &  Ganga Rejuvenation,  Ministry  of  Jal  Shakti,  namely,  Accelerated  Irrigation  Benefit  Programme  (AIBP),  and  Har Khet Ko Pani (HKKP). HKKP, in turn, consists of four sub-components: (i) Command Area Development & Water  Management  (CAD&WM);  (ii)  Surface  Minor  Irrigation  (SMI);  (iii)  Repair,  Renovation  and Restoration  (RRR)  of  Water  Bodies;  and  (iv)  Ground  Water  (GW)  Development.   In  2016,  with  the launching of revised AIBP format, CAD&WM sub-component of HKKP has been taken up for pari passu implementation with AIBP.

Further, in December, 2021, implementation of PMKSY for the period 2021-22 to 2025-26 has been approved by Government of India. However, approval of Ground Water component under PMKSY-HKKP has  provisionally  been  accorded  till  2021-22  only  for  committed  liabilities,  which  has  been  extended subsequently till completion of ongoing works. Also, Per Drop More Crop component, which was earlier a component of PMKSY, is now being implemented separately by Department of Agriculture and Farmer's Welfare (DoA&FW) under Rashtriya Krishi Vikash Yojna (RKVY). In addition, Watershed Development Component (WDC) is being implemented by Department of Land Resources (DoLR).

AIBP  component  focuses  on  completion  of  major  and  medium  and  Extension,  Renovation  and Modernisation (ERM) projects for creation of new irrigation potential/restoration of irrigation potential in the

country. CAD&WM is dedicated to command area development for bridging gap between irrigation potential created and its utilization and improving on-farm water use efficiency to reduce wastage. HKKP-SMI and RRR  deal  with  minor  irrigation  projects  for  enhancement  of  physical  access  of  water  on  the  farm  and expansion  of  cultivable  area  under  assured  irrigation.  PDMC  deals  with     adoption  of  precision-irrigation such as Drip and sprinkler and other water saving technologies. WDC works toward integrated development of  rainfed  areas  towards  soil  and  water  conservation,  regeneration  of  ground  water,  arresting  runoff  and promoting  extension  activities  relating  to  water  harvesting,  water  management  and  crop  alignment  for farmers etc.

Further, a special package has been taken up for financial assistance by Government of India in July, 2018 for completion of 83 surface minor irrigation (SMI) projects and 8 major / medium irrigation (MMI) projects in drought prone districts in Vidarbha and Marathwada and rest of Maharashtra in phases.

State wise details of central assistance released for different components of PMKSY in the last five years and current year are placed at Annexure-I.

Further,  central  assistance  of  Rs.  2,371.13  crore  has  been  provided  to  Maharashtra  under  special  package during 2019-20 to 2024-25 till November, 2024.

The district-wise details of projects in Maharashtra under PMKSY-AIBP and Maharashtra Package are placed at Annexure-II.

For effective implementation of the projects, progress of the projects is monitored at the highest level in this Ministry. Secretary, Department of Water Resources, River Development & Ganga Rejuvenation, Ministry of Jal Shakti takes project-wise periodic reviews of the physical and financial progress  of  the  projects  and  actions  to  be  taken  by  the  various  State  Governments  are  finalized  for  early resolution of issues. Issues and bottlenecks under the projects are also flagged over the Project Monitoring Group (PMG) portal and resolved in PMG meetings under Secretary (Coordination), Cabinet Secretariat.
