## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF HOUSING & URBAN POVERTY ALLEVIATION (SHRI BABUL SUPRIYO)

****

(a) & (b): Under JNNURM, a total of 1512 projects with a total project cost of  Rs.  32,815.00  crore  involving  Central  share  of  Rs.  17,495.75  crore  for construction of  12,50,741 houses have been approved.  Till now, construction of  9,99,132  houses  have  been  completed  of  which  7,91,480  houses  are occupied by the beneficiaries. State-wise details of physical progress are at Annexure-I. The Government has extended the JNNURM Mission period upto 31.03.2017 for completing on-going work only on the projects sanctioned upto 31.03.2012.

Under RAY, a total of 183 projects with a total project cost of Rs. 7,721.45 crore involving Central share of Rs. 3,605.96 crore for construction of  1,41,848 houses have been approved.  Till now, construction of 15,381 houses have been completed of which 4,874 houses have been occupied by the beneficiaries.  State-wise  details  are  at  Annexure-II.  The  Government  has discontinued Rajiv Awas Yojana (RAY) and subsumed in Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (Urban) the liabilities created under the 183 RAY projects where work had started on ground.

There has been delay in completing some projects under these schemes due to  reluctance  of  slum  dwellers  to  shift  temporarily  in  case  of  in-situ development  of  project  and  non-availability  of  encumbrance  free  land, resulting in cost overruns.

- (c)  Allotment of houses constructed under these schemes is the responsibility of the State/UT Governments concerned. Some of the houses built under these schemes are lying vacant due to reluctance of slum dwellers to shift, lack of/incomplete basic infrastructure and livelihood sources etc.

(d): The Government has discontinued Rajiv Awas Yojana (RAY) and subsumed in Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (Urban) the liabilities created under the 183 RAY projects where work had started on ground.

(e)    The Ministry, however, reviews of the status of ongoing projects under these schemes on the basis of Quarterly and Monthly Progress Reports, in the meetings of Central Sanctioning and Monitoring Committee (CSMC) and review meetings at the level of Secretary (HUPA). Through these reviews, State/UT governments have been advised to complete the ongoing projects as early as possible within the extended period of JNNURM i.e. by 31.03.2017, submit plan of  action  for  completion of ongoing projects, plan for 100% occupancy and submit the project completion certificates. The Ministry regularly corresponds with the concerned State Governments/UTs in this regard.
