## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF HOUSING AND URBAN AFFAIRS (SHRI TOKHAN SAHU)

(a)  to  (d):  As  per  the  provisions  of  Article  243W  of  the  Constitution,  in conjunction with the Seventh and Twelfth Schedules, matters relating to urban development fall within the purview of States/Urban Local Bodies (ULBs). However, Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) provides programmatic support to the States/Union Territories (UTs) in their urban development  agenda  through  its  various  flagship  Missions/Programmes viz.  Atal  Mission  for  Rejuvenation  &  Urban  Transformation  2.0  (AMRUT 2.0), Smart Cities Mission (SCM), Swachh Bharat Mission-Urban 2.0 (SBMU 2.0), Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana - Urban 2.0 (PMAY-U 2.0), Deendayal Antyodaya Yojana - National Urban Livelihoods Mission (DAY-NULM), Prime Minister Street Vendor's AtmaNirbhar Nidhi (PMSVANidhi), Urban Transport, etc.

Through these Missions/Schemes, the Central Government approves the State Plans and provides the Central Assistance (CA) to the States. The projects are selected, designed, approved and executed by the States/UTs and the cities. The State Governments release funds to the cities/districts. AMRUT: The Mission was launched on 25 June 2015 in selected 500 cities (485 cities including 15 merged cities) and towns across the country. The Mission focuses on development of basic infrastructure, in the selected cities and towns, in the sectors of water supply; sewerage and septage management; storm water drainage; green spaces and parks; and nonmotorized  urban  transport.   AMRUT 2.0 was launched in the year 2021 in

all  ULBs/  cities,  enabling  the  cities  to  become  'self-reliant'  and  'water secure'. Providing universal coverage of sewerage and septage management  in  500  AMRUT  cities  is  one  of  the  major  focus  areas  of AMRUT 2.0.

Funds under AMRUT and AMRUT 2.0 are allocated/released/ sanctioned to States/UTs  and  not  Constituency/District/ULBs  wise.  The  States/  UTs further release funds to the ULBs/ parastatal agencies as per the progress of projects.

Under  the  Mission,  States/  UTs  are  empowered  to  select,  appraise, prioritise and implement projects. Under AMRUT, Madhya Pradesh State has  taken  up  17  projects  worth  ₹856.25  crore  in  Gwalior  Lok  Sabha Constituency (Gwalior and Shivpuri Districts), which have been completed. As  per  the  information  updated  by  the  State  on  AMRUT  portal  an expenditure of ₹802.99 crore has been incurred.

Under AMRUT 2.0, the State has taken up 49 projects worth ₹1,493.80 crore in Gwalior Lok Sabha Constituency of which 38 projects have been awarded. As per the information updated by the State on AMRUT 2.0 portal an expenditure of ₹113.53 crore has been incurred on these projects so far.

The Mission guidelines have specific provisions for formation of State High Powered Steering Committee (SHPSC) headed by the Chief Secretary of the State, to monitor and supervise the implementation of the scheme at the State/ UT level. State Level Technical Committee (SLTC) headed by the  Secretary,  Urban  Development  &  Housing  Department  provides technical support to the SHPSC in monitoring and supervising the scheme at the State level. Further, an Apex Committee constituted under the ambit of Mission guidelines reviews and monitors the Mission periodically. For assessment and monitoring of work done under AMRUT in the States/ UTs, there  is  a  provision  of  Independent  Review  and  Monitoring  Agencies (IRMAs). Also, in  order  to  fast-track  the  implementation  of  AMRUT,  the progress  is  periodically  reviewed  &  monitored  through  regular  video conferences/  webinars/  workshops/  site-visits  etc.  by  MoHUA  with  the States/ UTs & their ULBs. There is a dedicated AMRUT 2.0 online portal for tracking the progress and monitoring of projects provided by the States/

UTs.

SCM:  Under  SCM,  Central  financial  assistance  of Rs.  490  Cr  has  been released  for  Gwalior  smart  city  and  the  same  has  been  utilised  by  the city. The Mission has come to end on 31.03.2025.

As apprised by the Smart Cities, the delay in completion of some projects can  be  attributed  to  varying  reasons  including,  inter  alia,  legal  issues, delay in obtaining clearances from different departments, land acquisition, construction in hilly areas, challenges in vendor and resource availability in small & medium cities.

SBM-U:  Under  the  mission,  the  Central  financial  assistance  as  Central Share (CS) funds are allocated to the States/UTs for the entire Mission period and not on yearly basis.

Under SBM-U, CS funds are released to the States/UTs on the basis of demand  made  by  States/UTs  in  the  form  of  complete  proposals  duly approved by State Level Technical Committee (SLTC) which are further transmitted to ULBs by the concerned State/UT as per the State Action Plan. Hence, details of district-wise or constituencies-wise project are not maintained at Ministry level.

It is the State/UT and their ULBs who have to implement the projects and action plans on ground through sustained efforts and day to day monitoring of status in their respective urban areas of jurisdiction.

Regular  interaction  is  made  by  MoHUA  throughout  the  year  with  the concerned  Principal  Secretaries/  Secretaries/  Mission  Directors  of  the States/UTs  to  review  the  financial  progress  of  the  States.  Weekly expenditure details of the States/UTs are regularly shared with the Mission Directors of States/UTs to emphasize on meeting their targeted expenditure. Field visits by Central team are also being done to support ground implementation. Technical handholding advisories/guidelines have been disseminated with States/ULBs and are being followed up through regular capacity building programmes. Model Request for Proposals (RFPs) and  Model  Concession  Agreements  (MCAs)  have  been  prepared  and notified  for  ready  use  in  procurement  by  ULBs.  The  details  of  funds allocated and released to State of Madhya Pradesh are as below:

PMAY-U: 'Land' and 'Colonization' are State subjects. Therefore, schemes related  to  housing  for  their  citizens  are  implemented  by  States/UTs. However,  MoHUA  supplements  the  efforts  of  States/UTs,  by  providing Central Assistance for pucca houses to eligible urban beneficiaries across the country under PMAY-U since 25.06.2015.

Based on the learnings from the experiences of implementation of PMAYU, MoHUA has revamped the scheme and launched PMAY-U 2.0 'Housing for All' Mission with effect from 01.09.2024 for implementation in urban areas  across  the  country  to  construct,  purchase  and  rent  a  house  by eligible beneficiaries at affordable cost, for one crore additional eligible beneficiaries  through  four  verticals  i.e.,  Beneficiary  Led  Construction (BLC), Affordable Housing in Partnership (AHP), Affordable Rental Housing (ARH)  and  Interest  Subsidy  Scheme  (ISS).  PMAY-U  2.0  guidelines  and Unified Web-portal for submitting the online applications can be accessed through https://pmay-urban.gov.in.
