## ANSWER THE MINISTER OF STATE (IC) OF THE MINISTRY OF AYUSH (SHRI PRATAPRAO JADHAV)

(a)  Under  the  Centrally  Sponsored  Scheme  of  National  Ayush  Mission  (NAM),  as  per  the proposals  received  from  the  State/UT  Governments  including  Andhra  Pradesh  through  State Annual Action Plan (SAAPs), Ministry of Ayush has approved 11274 Ayush dispensaries to be upgraded as Ayushman Arogya Mandir (Ayush) as per Annexure .

(b)  &  (c)  Under  NAM,  as  per  the  proposals  submitted  by  the  State  Government  of  Andhra Pradesh  through  SAAPs,  02  Integrated  Ayush  Hospitals  (IAHs)  have  been  supported  in  the districts of Vishakhapatnam &Kakinada and an amount of Rs. 309.43 lakhs &Rs. 814.25 lakhs respectively have been approved for the same. Further, as reported by the State Government of Andhra Pradesh 80% of the work has been completed at IAH Kakinada and 30% of the work has been completed for  IAH Vishakhapatnam. However, as implementation of the Scheme comes under  the  purview  of  respective  State  Government,  no  specific  timeline  has  been  fixed  by Government of India for completion of the above said integrated Ayush hospitals.

(d)  &  (e)  Under  NAM,  as  per  the  proposals  received  from  the  State  Government  of  Andhra Pradesh  through  SAAPs,  110  Ayush  dispensaries  have  been  supported  for  infrastructural upgradation  in  different  districts  and  consolidated  grant-in-aid  of  Rs.  496.84  lakhs  has  been approved for the same. However, under NAM, there is no provision of district-wise release of grant.
