Under AMRUT, States/ Union Territories (UTs) have been empowered to select, appraise, propose and implement  projects. A State Level Technical Committee (SLTC) headed by the Secretary, Urban Development &  Housing  Department  provides  technical  support  to  the  State  High Powered Steering Committee (SHPSC) headed by the Chief Secretary of the State, to approve, monitor and supervise the implementation of the scheme at the State/ UT level.

To fast-track the completion of  pending  projects  under  AMRUT Mission,  progress  is  monitored  through  dedicated  AMRUT  portal.  The progress is periodically reviewed and monitored by the Ministry of Housing & Urban Affairs (MoHUA) with the States/ UTs & their Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) through regular video conferences, webinars, workshops etc. Further,  to  ensure  timely  completion  of  projects,  officials  from  Ministry  of Housing and Urban Affairs and Project Monitoring Unit (AMRUT) visit States/ Union  Territories  (UTs)  to  check/  verify  the  status  of  implementation  of projects.

As per the available report from the State Government, in this project delay was due to non-availability of land during stipulated time period.
