( b) Sanitation is a State subject. SBM(G) being a Centrally Sponsored Scheme, is implemented by  the  State  and  UT  Governments  within  their  areas.  Since  SBM(G)  is  a  demand  driven scheme, funds are allocated to the States and UTs in a consolidated manner at the beginning of each financial year based on the projected demands by the States/UTs as submitted in their Annual Implementation Plan (AIP) and budget available at Centre during the financial year. Subsequently, funds are released to the States/UTs for overall implementation of the SBM(G) programme, based on their eligibility as per extant guidelines of Department of Expenditure and the scheme guidelines. Component-wise funds are not released to the States & UTs under SBM(G). Also, further distribution of funds to the districts is done by the respective State/UT at their level as per their needs-based assessment & planning. The details of the funds released and utilised  by  the  State  of  Andhra  Pradesh  under  SBM(G) in  the  last  eleven  years  are  as follows:

( e) Parliamentary constituency-wise details are not maintained under SBM(G)

Apart from budgetary allocations from Department of Drinking Water & Sanitation (DDWS) and the corresponding State share, remaining funds are to be dovetailed from the 15th Finance Commission grants to Rural Local Bodies, Mahatma Gandhi National Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS), Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) funds and revenue generation models etc. that may be explored by States/UTs. As per the SBM (G) Phase II Operational Guidelines, States/UTs have been advised to conduct periodical evaluation studies of the SBM(G) programme. Parliamentary Constituency-wise details of such studies have not been shared by the State.
