TO BE ANSWERED ON 18.12.2015

(a) to (e): The Integrated Action Plan (IAP) for Selected Tribal and Backward Districts was in operation

from 2010-11 to 2012-13. From 2013-14, assistance was provided to 88 districts under the scheme

“Additional Central Assistance (ACA) for Left Wing Extremism (LWE) Affected Districts” including the 82

IAP districts. During the period 2012-13 to 2014-15, an amount of Rs. 5219 crore was released against which

the States have reported an expenditure of Rs. 6110 crore (including spillover from previous years). The

State-wise details of funds released and utilized and the physical targets set and achieved during each of the

last three years is at Annexure I & II. The works taken up by the State Governments under the programme

included village roads, drinking water facilities and sanitation, school buildings/school infrastructure,

anganwadi centres etc. There is no allocation for this programme in Budget 2015-16.

The utilization of funds was being monitored very closely at different levels. The State Level

Committee headed by Chief Secretary / Development Commissioner of each State was entrusted with the

responsibility of monitoring at the State level. Besides statutory audit at the district level, the districts have

maintained the block wise inventory of assets created under the programme. Information on physical and

financial progress was also posted on the MIS developed for the scheme to ensure transparency. At the Central

Level, erstwhile Planning Commission / NITI Aayog took periodical reviews with the State Governments to

ensure that assets / infrastructure created under the programme were actually utilized.

IAP

†3224. SHRIMATI KAMLA DEVI PAATLE:


(a) the number of districts in Chhattisgarh identified as Left Wing Extremism affected districts andincluded under the Integrated Action Plan (IAP);

(b) whether the Government proposes to include newly formed districts of Chhattisgarh; if so, the detailsthereof;

(c) whether the Government has received a proposal from the Government of Chhattisgarh to increasethe allocation for each district included under IAP from Rs. 30 crore to 50 crore annually; and

(d) if so, the details thereof and the reaction of the Government thereto?

ANSWER



(a) to (d) The programme Integrated Action Plan (IAP) for Selected Tribal and Backward Districts was

continued from 2013-14 as Additional Central Assistance (ACA) for Left Wing Extremism (LWE)

affected districts. The programme covered 88 districts including 14 districts of Chhattisgarh namely

Balrampur, Bastar, Bijapur, Dantewada, Gariaband, Jashpur, Kanker, Kawardha, Kondagaon, Koriya,

Narayanpur, Rajnandgaon, Sukma and Surguja till 2014-15.

From 2015-16, the programme ACA for LWE affected districts has become a part of the devolution

to the States consequent upon the recommendations of the Fourteenth Finance Commission and no

allocation has been made for it in budget 2015-16. The higher tax devolution will give the States greater

autonomy to design and finance schemes suited to local needs and aspirations, including requirements to

bridge the developmental deficit gap in backward regions.

PRIVATE FUNDING FOR R&D

3233. SHRI BHAGWANTH KHUBA

Will the Minister of PLANNING be pleased to State:

(a) Whether the NITI Aayog penal moots, private funding for research and development activities in

various areas;

(b) If so, the details thereof; and

(c) The reaction of the Government as well a Corporate Sector in this regard?

ANSWER



(a) & (b): Yes, Madam. The Expert Committee on Innovation and Entrepreneurship under the Chairmanship

of Prof. Tarun Khanna, Director, South Asia Institute, Harvard University, USA has submitted its

report in October, 2015. One of the recommendations of the Expert Committee is as under:

“1% of corporate profit could be directed towards research labs in universities and/ or industry-

university collaborative research. The government could provide some tax benefits against this.

Monitoring of this rule should focus not only on the absolute amount channelled into universities, but

also on the efficiency of spending, that is, it needs to be output-rather than input-oriented. The idea

here is that universities become the breeding ground for new technology/ ideas that can be used by the

corporate sector. Firms would implicitly be outsourcing R&D - financing development of products/

services that can be bought by them. In that sense, this financing would be perceived as absolutely core

and fundamental to a firm’s operations, rather than as a CSR-related activity. Though the actual

development of R&D may take some time, beginning the involvement of the corporate sector in the

financing of universities could be achieved relatively quickly”.

(c) A Mission High Level Committee (MHLC) of Atal Innovation Mission (AIM) has been constituted to

consider the recommendations of the Expert Committee. NITI Aayog has not received any response

from the corporate sector.

STATES AUTONOMY ON EXPENDITURE OF FUNDS

3237. SHRI Y.S. AVINASH REDDY:


(a) whether, there is much ambiguity on the expenditure of funds being made on the

implementation of Centrally sponsored schemes and if so , the details thereof;

(b) whether the State Governments have requested for their autonomy on the expenditure of funds

released by the Union Government for the implementation of the Centrally sponsored schemes and if

so, the details thereof; and

(c) the response of the Union Government to this proposal?

ANSWER

MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) FOR MINISTRY OF PLANNING ANDMINISTER OF STATE FOR DEFENCE


(a) to (c): No Madam, there is no ambiguity on the expenditure of funds being made on the

implementation of Centrally sponsored schemes. 14th Finance Commission has recommended an increase of

10% in State’s share of net proceeds of Union taxes and duties. This increase from 32% to 42% underpins the

laudable objective of giving the States’ more financial autonomy. So, the increased devolution would

undoubtedly increase the quantum of untied funds available to the States which could be utilized by the States

for various schemes / programmes. The combined central transfers to the State from devolution of taxes and

CSS in 2015-16 is about 29.6% more over 2014-15 revised estimate. The detailed break-up is as follows:

formulate a relevant policy and to generate resources for the SDGs funds?

ANSWER



(a) In September, 2015, the United Nations adopted the document titled Transforming our world: the 2030

Agenda for Sustainable Development adopting a new set of 17 global Sustainable Development Goals for the

next 15 years, i.e. up to 2030. These SDGs are containing 169 targets. Moreover, these are universal goals and

targets which involve the entire world, developed and developing countries (including India) alike.

Women Empowerment, Child Development, Water and Sanitation, Modern Energy and Decent Work,

Resilent Infrastructure, Sustainable cities, Sustainable Consumption and Production, combat climate change,

Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources, Protect ecosystems, reverse land

degradation and halt biodiversity loss, Promote peaceful and inclusive societies, provide access to justice for

all.

The Government of India has been implementing a number of Central Sector / Centrally Sponsored

Development Schemes throughout the country for the benefit of the people at the grass root level. Every year,

sufficient funds are allocated under the Union Budget to run these schemes. These schemes like Pradhan

Mantri Jan-Dhan Yojana (PMJDY), Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme

(MGNREGA), National Rural Livelihoods Mission (NRLM), National Urban Livelihoods Mission (NULM),

Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM), Rajiv Awas Yojana (RAY), Indira Awas

Yojana (IAY), National Health Mission (NHM), Sarva Shiksha Abyhiyan (SSA), Mid-Day Meal Scheme

(MDMS), Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS), Rajiv Gandhi National Drinking Water Mission

(RGNDWM), National Social Assistance Programme (NSAP), Swachh Bharat Mission etc. are addressing

most of the targets identified by the UN under the SDGs.

(c) (d) and (e) -

The Implementing Ministries of the Union Government have been collecting data on regular basis on

the CS/CSS schemes with regard to their targets and achievements. The MIS data of the Implementing

Ministries will help in mapping the SDGs. However, as the SDGs have been intimated by the UN to the

participating countries like India very recently, Government of India has initiated work to map the different

CSS schemes that are co-relating the SDGs and to identify the indicators for the targets under the SDGs.
