## ANSWER MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT (DR. CHANDRA SEKHAR PEMMASANI)

(a):  Lakhpati  Didi  initiative  is  an  outcome  of  Deendayal  Antyodaya Yojana-National Rural Livelihoods Mission (DAY-NRLM), a Centrally Sponsored Scheme being implemented by Ministry in partnership of States and UTs (except Chandigarh and Delhi), with the objective to improve  the  livelihoods  of  poor  rural  households  in  country,  and organise  rural  households  into  Self-Help  Groups  (SHGs)  for  their social and financial inclusion.

A  Lakhpati  Didi  is  a  Self-Help  Group  Member,  whose  annual household income is at least Rs. 1,00,000 (Rupees One Lakh) with an average  monthly  income  of  at  least  Rs.  10,000  (Rupees  Ten Thousand)  sustained  for  at  least  4  agricultural  seasons  and/or business  cycles.  State  wise  details  of  Lakhpati  didi  are  given  at Anenxure-I. District wise details may be seen from https://lakhpatididi.gov.in/.

(b)&(c): The  Government  has  approved  'Namo  Drone  Didi'  as Central Sector Scheme for providing drones to the Women Self Help Groups  (SHGs)  with  an  outlay  of  Rs.  1261  Crores.    As  per  the information provided by the Department of Fertilizers, Lead Fertilizer Companies  (LFCs)  have  distributed  1094  drones  to  drone  didis  of SHGs in 2023-24 using their internal resources. Out of these 1094 drones distributed, 500 drones have been distributed under the Namo Drone  Didi  Scheme.  All  these  SHG  members  have  been  provided training  at  the  Remote  Pilot  Organisations  (RPTOs)  authorised  by DGCA. The State-wise and district-wise details of drones distributed & SHG members trained as drone pilots are given at Annexure-II.

Agricultural  Development  and  Rural  Transformation  Centre (ADRTC),  Bangalore  have  carried  out  a  study  on  economics  and business viability of drone operations on these 500 drones provided by LFCs under Namo Drone Didi scheme. The study indicates that the SHGs  earlier  were  primarily  engaged  in  agriculture  and  allied activities and the drones provided to them has expanded their niche to modern agricultural practices through drone technology, enhancing their efficiency and productivity. Overall, the adoption of drones has diversified SHG activities, improved agricultural practices,  and  increased  income  opportunities  for  women  in  rural communities.

The specific findings of the study concerning the western including the State of Maharashtra are as under:

- I. farmers have shown willingness to use drone services at an average of Rs.379 per acre.
- II. 99% farmers expressed that they would recommend drone services to other farmers.
- III. 82% farmers felt the rental charges were comparatively cheap. 18% found the costs affordable.
- IV. 97% reported water saving, 87% reported savings in labour cost, 74% reported savings in pesticide, 77% reported savings in Fertilizer use 48% reported saving of Diesel.

(d) & (e): Deendayal  Antyodaya  Yojana-National  Rural  Livelihoods Mission  (DAY-NRLM)  focuses  on  strengthening  non-farm  specific livelihoods by empowering the women and their family members to promote/strengthen their units by Start-up Village Entrepreneurship Programme (SVEP) umbrella, a sub-component of NRLM.

Under  DAY-NRLM,  initiatives  such  as  SVEP,  One  Stop  Facility, Micro Enterprise Development, cluster and incubator components are implemented to promote rural enterprises. These programmes also provide  technical  and  entrepreneurial  skill  and  to  rural  women  in emerging  non-farm  sectors  like  solar  panel  installation,  LED  bulb assembling, and similar activities so that women continue as drivers of a Viksit Bharat.

Start-up  Village  Entrepreneurship  Programme  (SVEP)  is  a  subscheme under Deendayal Antyodaya Yojana-National Rural Livelihoods  Mission  (DAY-NRLM)  aims  at  promoting  women-led entrepreneurship and livelihood diversification in rural areas. SVEP is a demand-based programme, which supports Self-Help Groups (SHGs) and their family members in setting up small enterprises in the nonfarm sector.  There is no State wise allocation of projects. States have to submit proposals through supplementary Annual Action Plans (AAP).  Once  approved, a  Detailed Project Reports  (DPR) has to  be prepared for the block. The block is the unit of implementation. The funds allocation for each block depends on the number of enterprises to be supported as per the DPR. As of February 2026, a total of 4.17 lakh enterprises have been supported under SVEP, State wise details are given at Annexure-III and  in Bulandshahr  district, 21,256 enterprises have been supported.
