## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT (SHRI KAMLESH PASWAN)

- (a): 'Rural Roads' is a State subject and Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) is a one-time special intervention to provide rural connectivity,  by  way  of  a  single  all-weather  road,  to  the  eligible unconnected  habitations  in  the  core  network.  As  per  PMGSY guidelines  works  under  PMGSY  are  executed  through  the  State Governments.

The allocation/release of funds to the States for implementation of PMGSY is done on the basis of the proposal received from the State and depends, inter-alia, on works in hand, execution capacity of the State  and  unspent  funds  available  with  it.    The  details  of  funds released, and expenditure incurred by the State of Telangana during the last five years is as under:
