## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE FOR JAL SHAKTI

## ( SHRI RAJ BHUSHAN CHOUDHARY )

(a) to (c) Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojana (PMKSY) was launched during the year 2015-16, with the aim to enhance physical access of water on farm and expand cultivable area under assured irrigation, improve on-farm water use efficiency, introduce sustainable water conservation practices, etc. Accelerated  Irrigation  Benefits  Programme  (AIBP)  and  Har  Khet  Ko  Pani  (HKKP)  are  two  major components of PMKSY being implemented by Ministry of Jal Shakti.

Nineteen (19) major and medium irrigation projects have been taken up for funding under PMKSYAIBP  and  fourteen  (14)  clusters  comprising  1731  Surface  Minor  Irrigation  (SMI)  projects  have  been included under PMKSY-HKKP after approval of implementation of PMKSY for the period of 2021-26.

Details of these projects, including projects of Rajasthan are placed as Annexure.

Government plans to achieve 'Har Khet Ko Pani' through expansion and completion of irrigation projects  under  the  Pradhan  Mantri  Krishi  Sinchayee  Yojana,  including  components  like  Accelerated Irrigation Benefit Programme and Har Khet Ko Pani. Micro-irrigation such as drip and sprinkler systems is  being  promoted  under  'Per  Drop  More  Crop'  to  enhance  water-use  efficiency.  Modernisation  of irrigation  systems,  including  SCADA-based  canal  operations  and  underground  pipelines,  are  being promoted to improve irrigation efficiency. Watershed development and repair, renovation and restoration of water bodies are being implemented to ensure sustainable irrigation in the long term.

In  addition,  a  pilot  scheme  viz.  Modernisation  of  Command  Area  Development  and  Water Management (MCAD) has been launched with aim to modernize irrigation water supply network with robust backend infrastructure for micro-irrigation by farmers from established source to the Farm gate with  underground  pressurized  piped  irrigation.  This  will  increase  water  use  efficiency  and  agriculture productivity.
