## ANSWER THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE (SHRI TOKHAN SAHU)

- (a) to  (f):  As  per  the  provisions  of  Article  243W  of  the  Constitution,  in conjunction with the Seventh and Twelfth Schedules, matters relating to urban development fall within the purview of States/Urban Local Bodies (ULBs). However, Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) provides programmatic support to the States/Union Territories (UTs) in their urban development agenda through its various flagship Missions/Programmes viz. Atal Mission for Rejuvenation & Urban Transformation 2.0 (AMRUT 2.0), Swachh Bharat Mission - Urban 2.0 (SBM - U 2.0), Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana - Urban 2.0 (PMAY-U 2.0), Urban Transport (UT), PM-eBus Sewa Scheme, etc.

Through these Missions/Schemes, the Central Government approves the State Plans and provides the Central Assistance (CA) to the States. The projects are selected, designed, approved and executed by the States/UTs and the cities. The State Governments release funds to the cities/districts.

AMRUT: This Mission  was  launched  in  the  year  2015  in  selected  500 cities (now 485 cities including 15 merged cities) and towns across the country. It was focused on development of basic infrastructure in urban areas, in the sectors of water supply, sewerage and septage management,  parks  and  green  spaces,  storm  water  drainage,  etc. AMRUT  2.0  has  been  launched  in  the  year  2021  in  all  ULBs/cities, enabling the cities to become 'self-reliant' and 'water secure'. Providing universal coverage of sewerage and septage management in 500 AMRUT cities  is  one  of  the  major  focus  areas  of  AMRUT  2.0. Rejuvenation  of Water Bodies and Parks and Green spaces are other components of the Mission.  Under  the  Mission,  States/  UTs  are  empowered  to  select, appraise, propose and implement projects.

Under  AMRUT,  the  State  of  Haryana  has  grounded  33  projects  worth Parliamentary crore have been physically

₹533.49 crore in Hisar and Sonipat Lok Sabha Constituencies of which works worth ₹517.40 completed.

The  Mission  guidelines  have  provisions  for  formation  of  State  High Powered Steering Committee (SHPSC) headed by the Chief Secretary of the State, to monitor and supervise the implementation of the scheme at the State/ UT level. State Level Technical Committee (SLTC) headed by the  Secretary,  Urban  Development  &  Housing  Department  provides technical support to the SHPSC in monitoring and supervising the scheme at  the  State  level.  Further,  an  Apex  Committee  constituted  under  the ambit of Mission guidelines reviews and monitor the Mission periodically. For assessment and monitoring of work done under AMRUT 2.0 in the States/ UTs, there is a provision of Independent Review and Monitoring Agencies (IRMAs). Funds are released to the States/ UTs upon satisfactory compliance of IRMA reports. Also, in order to fast-track the implementation of AMRUT 2.0, the progress is periodically reviewed and monitored through regular video conferences/ webinars/ workshops/ sitevisits etc. by MoHUA with the States/ UTs and ULBs. There is a dedicated AMRUT  2.0  online  portal  for  tracking  the  progress  and  project-wise outcomes.

PMAY-U: Land' and 'Colonization' are State subjects. Therefore, schemes related  to  housing  for  their  citizens  are  implemented  by  States/UTs. However, MoHUA supplements the efforts of States/UTs, by providing CA for pucca houses to eligible urban beneficiaries across the country under PMAY-U since 25.06.2015.

Based on the learnings from the experiences of implementation of PMAYU, MoHUA has revamped the scheme and launched PMAY-U 2.0 'Housing for All' Mission with effect from 01.09.2024 for implementation in urban areas  across  the  country  to  construct,  purchase  and  rent  a  house  by eligible beneficiaries at affordable cost, for one crore additional eligible beneficiaries  through  four  verticals  i.e.,  Beneficiary  Led  Construction (BLC), Affordable Housing  in Partnership (AHP), Affordable Rental Housing (ARH) and Interest Subsidy Scheme (ISS). PMAY-U 2.0 guidelines and  Unified  Web-portal  for  submitting  the  online  applications  can  be accessed through https://pmay-urban.gov.in.
