## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF EDUCATION (SHRI JAYANT CHAUDHARY)

(a) to (e):   Education is a subject in the Concurrent list of the Constitution and most of the schools come under jurisdiction of concerned States and UTs. State and UT Governments are the  appropriate  Governments and have the responsibility to provide infrastructure in schools including construction/establishment of new schools/additional classrooms/science & mathematics laboratories/toilets and drinking water facilities.

Department of School Education & Literacy is implementing the Scheme of Samagra Shiksha Scheme which supports creation of infrastructure facilities including construction/establishment of new  schools/additional classrooms/science &  mathematics laboratories/toilets  and drinking water facilities for students in Government and Government aided  schools.  In  this  regard,  Annual  Work  Plan  and  Budget  (AWP&B)  is  prepared  by  the States and UTs based on their requirements and priorities and guidelines issued by the Ministry of Education at the beginning of every year. These plans are then appraised/approved by PAB in  consultation  with  the States  and  UTs  as  per  the  programmatic  and  financial  norms  of  the Scheme  and  availability  of  budgetary  resources.  Under  the  scheme,  lump  sum  funds  are released to the States instead of component-wise, for implementing various interventions of the Samagra Shiksha. Funds are released to the States in 4 instalments on the basis of proposal for release and other relevant documents received from the States. As per the norms, 4 th instalment during  a  Financial  Year  is  released  to  the  States/UTs  only  after  submission  of  Audited Utilization Certificate in respect of grant released in previous Financial Year.

The details of Physical and Financial status for the last five years (2021-22 to 2025-26) relating  to  the  construction/establishment  of  new  schools/additional  classrooms/science  & mathematics laboratories/toilets and drinking water facilities for all States/UTs-wise including district-wise data in Andhra Pradesh are at Annexure-I and Annexure - II respectively.
