ANSWER
MINISTER OF STATE FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE AND EMPOWERMENT

(SHRI A. NARAYANASWAMY)

(a): The centrally sponsored scheme of Pradhan Mantri Adarsh Gram Yojana(PMAGY) is being implemented since 2009-10 for integrated development of Scheduled Castes(SCs) majority villages. Since 2018-19, the scheme implementation guidelines were comprehensively revised. During 2021-22, this scheme has been merged with two other existing schemes of this Department to be known as Pradhan Mantri Anusuchit Jaati Abhyuday Yojana(PM-AJAY), for which an amount of Rs.1800.00 er. has been allocated for the financial year 2021-22.

The principal objective of the 'Adarsh Gram' component of the merged scheme of PM-AJAY is integrated development of SC majority villages:

1. Primarily through convergent implementation of the relevant Central and State Schemes; and,

2. To take up identified activities, which do not get covered under the existing Central and State Government Schemes, through 'Gap-filling' funds provided as Central Assistance to the extent of Rs.20.00 lakh per village.

The scheme was started on pilot basis wherein 1000 such villages were selected. In 2014-15, the scheme was further expanded to 1500 more villages. Since 2018-19, 19080 villages have been selected so far under the scheme. Till 2017-18, all such villages having more than 50% SC population were eligible for selection under the scheme. Since 2018-19 onwards, villages having total population 500 or more with more than 50% SC population are eligible for selection under the scheme at present.

(b): In Odisha, a total of 175 villages were selected in 2014-15 out of which 169 were found eligible. Since 2018-19, 946 villages have been selected of which 904 have been found eligible till date.

(c): Till date 2487 villages have so far been declared as 'Adarsh Gram' on achieving the desired parameters, out of which 83 villages are from Odisha.

(d): The funds released by the Department to the State Government of Odisha and utilized by them during each of the last three years and the current year are as under:
