## STATEMENT REFERRED TO IN REPLY TO PART (a) to (d) OF LOK SABHA STARRED QUESTION NO. 53 DUE FOR ANSWER ON 3 RD   FEBRUARY, 2026 ON 'FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO ODISHA'

(a) to  (d): Government  of  India  is  implementing  a  comprehensive  range  of  Central Sector  as  well  as  Centrally  Sponsored  Schemes  and  programmes  for  the  welfare  of farmers in the country, including Odisha. These schemes encompass entire spectrum of agriculture  including  credit,  insurance,  income  support,  infrastructure,  crops  including horticulture,  seeds,  mechanization,  marketing,  organic  and  natural  farming,  farmer collectives, irrigation, extension, procurement of crops from farmers at minimum support prices  and  digital  agriculture.  The  list  of  schemes  implemented  by  Department  of Agriculture  and  Farmers  Welfare  (DA&FW)  across  the  country,  including  Odisha,  is attached  as Annexure  I. The  details  of  financial  assistance  released  by  the  Union Government to the State of Odisha during the last three financial years and the current financial year are attached as Annexure II .   However, funds under most schemes are released  to the State Government,  and  district-wise  financial  allocations are not maintained centrally in all cases.

Further, under various schemes implemented by DA&FW, for Centrally Sponsored Schemes,  beneficiary  data  is  maintained  by  States  based  on  scheme  guidelines  and implementation  modalities.  The  details  of  beneficiaries  of  Jharsuguda  and  Bargarh Districts as reported by the Government of Odisha is attached as Annexure III .

Utilisation  Certificates  in  respect  of  funds  released  under  Centrally  Sponsored Schemes are required to  be submitted  by  the  State  Governments  in  accordance  with General  Financial  Rules  (GFR)  and  scheme  guidelines.  In  certain  cases,  delays  in submission of Utilisation Certificates occur due to factors such as late receipt of reports from implementing agencies, reconciliation of expenditure with district-level authorities, pending audits and procedural requirements.

The details of UCs for the Financial Year 2022-23 and 2023-24 from Odisha are at Annexure IV .  UCs of 2024-25 will be required while release of funds in Financial Year 2026-27.

The State has informed that during FY- 2023-24, Rs 129.2921 Cr was available as Central  Share  to  PDMC,  out  of  which  Rs  63.93  Cr  was  spent  in  FY-2023-24.  Inter component  transfer  of  Rs  37.704  Cr  was  done  to  other  State  Linked  Schemes  (SLS) components  of Pradhan  Mantri-  Rashtriya  Krishi Vikas  Yojana  (  PM-RKVY)  within  the umbrella scheme  as per  Guidelines. The spill over amount of Rs 27.6581 Cr was  spent during FY- 2024-25 under PDMC. Further, with regard to PKVY , the state has stated that Rs 30.88 lakh remained unutilized in FY 2023-24.

The Department regularly monitors the accounts of the budget it provides under different heads from time to time to ensure optimal utilization of funds as well as to achieve intended outcome or benefits or objectives under the scheme and programmes.
