## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE FOR DRINKING WATER AND SANITATION (SHRI RAMESH CHANDAPPA JIGAJINAGI)

(a)& (b) The details of funds released by this Ministry under National Rural Drinking Water  Programme  (NRDWP)  for  the  last  three  years  and  the  current  year  are  at Annexure-I .  There  has  been  a  decrease  in  allocation  of  funds  to  the  States  during 2015-16  and  2016-17  due  to  enhanced  devolution  of  funds  to  the  States  where  the State share has been increased from 32% to 42 %. With this increased devolution of funds, States/UTsare required to meet the shortfall.

Similarly under Swach Bharat Mission (Grameen) (SBM- G),  State/UT-wise, Central share  released  during  last  3  years  and  current  year  (upto  01.08.2016)  under  Nirmal

Bharat Abhiyan (NBA) /Swachh Bharat Mission (Gramin) is at Annexure-1(a). The allocation (BE) for SBM(G) for 2016-17 is Rs. 9000 crore and additional funds have been sought in supplementary demand.

(c)  Rural  Water  Supply  is  a  State  subject  and  providing  sustainable  drinking  water supply to the rural people is a dynamic process. This Ministry assists the States/UTs financially and technically in order to supplement their efforts in rural drinking water sector.  As  per  information  provided  by  States/UTs  on    Integrated  Management Information System (IMIS) of the Ministry, there are 17,14,528 total rural habitations in  the  country.  Out  of  this;  13,09,334  rural  habitations  are  fully  covered  [getting  at least 40 litres per capita per day (lpcd) potable drinking water], 3,34,806 habitations are  partially  covered  (getting  less  than  40  lpcd)  and  70,388  habitations  are  quality affected (where  quality  of drinking  water  is affected with  at least  one  water contaminant like Arsenic, Fluoride, Iron, Nitrate, salinity).  Hence, there are still about 24% rural habitations  in the country where the population is getting unsafe drinking water or less than the required norms under  NRDWP.

As  regards  SBM-G,  State/UTs  -wise  number  of  households  without  toilets  as  on 1.10.2016 as per the information provided by the State on the Integrated Management Information System (IMIS) is at Annexure-II.

As  per  information  provided  by  State  of  Bihar  and  Maharashtra  on  Integrated Management  Information  System  (IMIS)  of  the  Ministry,  there  are  1,10,234  & 1,00,066 rural habitations in these States out of which; 64,347 & 87,968 habitationsare fully covered; 40,313 & 11,704 habitations  are partially covered and 5574 & 394 habitations are quality affected respectively.

(d) The Drinking Water sector is a State subject. This Ministry by organizing various workshops, exhibitions and field visits shares / showcases various technologies / best practices to officials of States for benefitting them in implementation of Rural Water Supply  Schemes.  In  addition  to  this,  the  Ministry  through  a  high  level  expert committee  suggest  various  innovative  technologies  relating  to  drinking  water  and sanitation sectors to the States for selection by them as per their requirement. Also, in collaboration  with  National  Remote  Sensing  Centre  (NRSC),  this  Ministry  had  got prepared  Hydro-Geo-Morphological  (HGM)  Maps  (Ground  Water  Prospect  Maps) and distributed to all the States. These maps can be effectively used to drill down to correct locations both for production wells as well as artificial ground water re-charge sites.
