## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE FOR FOOD PROCESSING INDUSTRIES (SADHVI NIRANJAN JYOTI)

(a):   The Centrally Sponsored Scheme (CSS) - National Mission on Food Processing (NMFP) aimed  at  decentralization  of  implementation  of  the  schemes,  which led  to  substantial participation  of  State  Governments/UTs.

- (b):    Government  of  India  (GOI)  has  delinked  the  CSS-NMFP  from  Central  Government support  w.e.f. 1.4.2015.  State  Governments  including  Government  of  Andhra  Pradesh  may decide to continue (or not) NMFP scheme out of their increased State resources resulting from the  recommendations  of  the  14 th Finance  Commission.  Accordingly,  State  Government  of Andhra  Pradesh has announced  various incentives / financial assistance under  Food Processing Policy 2015-2020 to provide fillip to food processing sector in the State.

A statement indicating financial assistance sanctioned and released to the food processing units by the State  /  UT  Governments  including  Government  of  Andhra  Pradesh  under  the  CSSNMFP  Scheme  for  Technology  Up-gradation  /  Establishment  /  Modernisation  of  Food Processing Industries during last three years is at Annexure-I.

(d):   Statement indicating the state-wise employment generated on account of implementation of various schemes of CSS-NMFP is at Annexure-II.

(e):    Government of Andhra Pradesh had sanctioned 28 projects involving grants-in-aid of Rs. 62.52 crore under various schemes of CSS-NMFP. The year-wise breakup of the projects sanctioned by Govt. of Andhra Pradesh under various schemes of CSS-NMFP during 201213, 2013-14 & 2014-15 is as under:
