## ANSWER THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF HOUSING AND URBAN AFFAIRS (SHRI TOKHAN SAHU)

- (a) to  (c)  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. 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), Pradhan  Mantri  Awas  Yojana  -  Urban  2.0  (PMAY-U  2.0),  Swachh  Bharat Mission - Urban 2.0 (SBM - U 2.0), Urban Transport (UT), 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.

Further,  metro  rail  projects  are  highly  cost  intensive,  which  undergo  a thorough appraisal process in  the  Ministry  and  examination  at  different levels  in  Central  Government.  The  approval  of  such  proposals  depends upon  the  feasibility  of  the  project  and  availability  of  the  resources. Therefore, no time limit can be specified for the sanction of the projects.

Details of proposals received from Government of Maharashtra, approved and pending in this regard under AMRUT 2.0, Urban Transport, PMAY-U and SBM-U are as given below:

AMRUT 2.0: This mission was launched in the year 2021 in all Urban Local Bodies (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.  Under  the  Mission,  States/  UTs  are  empowered  to  select  appraise, propose and implement projects. Under AMRUT 2.0, MoHUA has approved 275 projects  worth  ₹29,999.68  crore,  which  include  116  water  supply projects  worth  ₹15,814.93  crore,  46  sewerage/septage  management projects worth ₹12,510.96 crore, 25 green sp aces & park project worth ₹189.12 crore and 88 water body rejuvenation projects worth ₹1,484.67 crore. No proposal of Maharashtra State for projects under AMRUT 2.0 is pending at present.
