- (b) the total number of sanctioned mega food parks that are either non-operational or have faced delays in becoming operational in Tamil Nadu along with the reasons therefor; and (c)  whether the Government has taken necessary steps to overcome these delays, if so, the details thereof and if not, the reasons therefor?

## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE FOR FOOD PROCESSING INDUSTRIES (SHRI RAVNEET SINGH)

- a) Under Mega Food Park scheme, the Ministry has approved 41 Mega Food Parks (MFPs) in the country. Out of this 25 MFPs are operational. State-wise details of these MFPs including their status of implementation are in Annexure.
- b) Ministry has sanctioned one Mega Food Park project to Implementing Agency (IA) namely Tamil  Nadu  State  Agricultural  Marketing  Board  (TNSAMB)  at  Tirunelveli  district,  Tamil Nadu, which is an on-going project. The operationalization of this Mega Food Park project is delayed  mainly  due  to  the  delay  in  leasing  of  plots  to  food  processing  units  and  their operationalization by the IA as per the scheme guidelines.
- c) The responsibility of execution, ownership and management of MFPs vests with the Special Purpose  Vehicle  (SPV)  /  Implementing  Agency  (IA).  Ministry  is  regularly  monitoring  the projects  through  the  Programme  Management  Agencies  (PMAs)  and  also  reviewing  the progress of projects by conducting review meetings at the level of Senior Officers and Hon'ble Minister, FPI to facilitate early implementation of projects. The Ministry tries to guide and coordinate with concerned agencies in case of any issues brought to notice of the Ministry by implementing agencies.
