MINISTER OF DRINKING WATER AND SANITATION (SHRI JAIRAM RAMESH) (a) to (f)A statement is laid on the Table of the House, Statement referred to in the reply to part (a) to (f) of Lok Sabha Starred Question No.59 admitted for reply on 15.03.2012. (a) (d) & (e) A statement showing the details of State-wise allocation, release and expenditure of funds under National Rural Drinking Water Programme during the last three years and the current year is attached. Few States have been unable to spend the amount in some years fully on account of reasons such as delays in procurement processes, taking up multi-village schemes that require 2-3 years for completion, imposition of model code of conduct due to declaration of election, time for preparatory activities, delayed release of funds to implementing authorities, fag end releases by the Central Government, etc. (b) As per data reported by the States, on the Integrated Management Information System (IMIS) of the Ministry as on 8.3.2012, there are 16,64,186 rural habitations in the country. Out of this 12,37,408 habitations are fully covered with provision of safe and adequate drinking water supply, 3,19,929 habitations, are partially covered and 1,06,849 habitations are quality affected. During 2012-13, the States have targeted to cover 1,15,379 slipped back habitations and 29,790 quality affected habitations. Against this, up to 8.3.2012, 72,318 slipped back habitations and 14,043 quality affected habitations have been covered with safe and adequate drinking water. (c) & (f) Various mechanisms have been put in place to monitor the utilization of funds, the progress of implementation and assess the achievements of the National Rural Drinking Water Programme. The State Governments are required to prepare an Annual Action Plan to implement various components and activities of the NRDWP. They have to mark the targeted habitations and provide details of works, schemes and activities in the on-line IMIS. Coverage and progress data is also to be entered in the on-line IMIS. 19 formats have been developed for monitoring all aspects of implementation of the programme. Further, Senior Officers/ Area Officers/Technical Officers tour the States to assess the implementation of the Programme. The Ministry also conducts meetings of the Secretaries in charge of rural water supply, regional review meetings, video-conferencing, etc. through which implementation of NRDWP is monitored. Assessment of achievements is done through periodic evaluations of the programme by the Ministry, the Planning Commission, Ministry of Rural Development etc.

MINISTER OF DRINKING WATER AND SANITATION (SHRI JAIRAM RAMESH) (a) & (b): No Sir. However the status of coverage of rural habitations in terms of drinking water supply and coverage of rural households as per project objectives for sanitation is reported by the States on the online Integrated Management Information System (IM1S). The status is continuously updated by the States. The status of coverage of rural habitations with drinking water supply and rural households with individual household latrines ((IHHL) is at Annexure I &II. (c) & (d): The Ministry of Drinking Water & Sanitation administers through the States the centrally sponsored schemes, viz . National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP) and Total Sanitation Campaign (TSC). NRDWP is for providing financial and technical assistance to the States to supplement their efforts to provide drinking water to the rural areas and TSC is to facilitate States to ensure sanitation facilities in rural areas with the main objective of eradicating the practice of open defecation and ensuring clean environment. The State Governments are vested with powers to plan, execute and implement drinking water supply schemes under NRDWP. Rural Water Supply Schemes are approved by the State Level Scheme Sanctioning Committee. For optimum use of funds and monitoring of implementation of the programme, the State Governments are required to prepare Annual Action Plans to implement various components and activities of the NRDWP. They have to mark the targeted habitations and provide details of works, schemes and activities in the on-line IMIS. Coverage and progress data is also to be entered in the on-line TMIS. 19 formats have been developed for monitoring all aspects of implementation of the programme. Further, Senior Officers/Area Officers/Technical Officers tour the State to assess the implementation of the Programme. The Ministry also conducts meetings of the State Secretaries in charge of rural water supply, regional review meetings, video-conferencing, etc. through which implementation of NRDWP is monitored. In case of sanitation, it has a comprehensive system of monitoring the implementation of the TSC through periodical progress reports, Performance Review Committee meetings, Area Officer`s Scheme, National Level Monitors, District Level Monitoring and Vigilance and Monitoring Committees at the State/ District Level. Besides, the States have been advised to adopt a five-pronged strategy consisting of (i) creation of awareness about the schemes, (ii) transparency, (iii) People`s participation, (iv) accountability/ social audit and (v) strict vigilance and monitoring at all levels. (e): During the discussion of the Annual Action Plans of the States and subsequent finalization, yearly targets for coverage of habitations including tribal concentrated rural habitations are set. (f): A State-wise statement giving the details of allocation, release and utilization of NRDWP funds by the States in the last three years and the current year is at Annexure III. The targets and achievements made during the last three years and current year are at Annexure IV.

CENTRAL ASSISTANCE UNDER TSC 29th March, 2012 LSQ 2559 DR KILLI KRUPA RANI Will the Minister of DRINKING WATER AND SANITATION be pleased to state:- (a) the number of habitations/villages covered under Total Sanitation Campaign (TSC) in various States of the country, State-wise; (b) whether the Central assistance provided by the Government under TSC is insufficient in view of rising prices of construction material; (c) if so, the details thereof; and (d) the measures taken by the Government to increase Central assistance under TSC? MINISTER OF DRINKING WATER AND SANITATION (SHRI JAIRAM RAMESH) (a): Government of India administers Total Sanitation Campaign (TSC), a comprehensive programme started in the year 1999 to facilitate States to ensure sanitation facilities in rural areas with the main objective of eradicating the practice of open defecation and ensuring clean environment. TSC is a demand driven project based programme taking district as a unit covering total rural population of the districts not having sanitation facilities including all the habitations/villages. TSC, at present, is being implemented in 607 rural districts of the country. The details regarding number of habitations/villages covered under Total Sanitation Campaign (TSC) in various States is not maintained by the Ministry. State wise number of district projects sanctioned in the country is at Annexure. (b)to(d): Government reviews the incentive amount paid to BPL households under TSC from time to time to sufficiently motivate the BPL households to create and use sanitation facilities. The incentive amount to a Below Poverty Line (BPL) household for construction and usage of Individual Household Latrine (IHHL) is Rs.3200.00 (Rs.3700.00 for difficult and hilly areas). The Central share out of this is Rs.2200.00 (Rs.2700.00 in case of hilly and difficult areas) effective from 1st June 2011. The program is a demand driven one and the people are expected to generate the resources for construction of the toilet when they develop a felt need for the same. Past experience of subsidizing the construction of the toilets shows that while large number of toilets was constructed, this did not impact reduction of open defecation to the commensurate level by the assisted households.

COVERAGE UNDER NRDWP 9th August, 2012 LSQ 311

SHRI PURNMASI RAM Will the Minister of DRINKING WATER AND SANITATION be pleased to state:- (a) the aims and objectives of National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP);

(b) whether the Government has achieved these aims and objectives and if so, the details thereof;

(c) if not, the reasons therefor;

(d) the details of the target set and achieved by the Government under NRDWP during Bharat Nirman Phase-I;

(e) whether the Government has ascertained the drawbacks in achieving the targets and if so, the details thereof

including the steps taken to achieve the targets;

(f) whether the Government has formulated any programme to provide piped water supply to every household in rural areas; and

(g) if so, the details thereof and the number of households provided piped water supply,State-wise? MINISTER OF DRINKING WATER AND SANITATION (SHRI JAIRAM RAMESH) (a) to (c): The aim and objective of National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP), is to provide every rural person with adequate safe water for drinking, cooking and other basic domestic needs on a sustainable basis with a minimum water quality standard which should be conveniently accessible at all times in all situations. Achieving this aim and objective is a continuous process. (d): During Bharat Nirman Phase I, as on 1.4.2005, it was envisaged to cover 55,067 uncovered, 3,31,604 slipped back and 2,16,968 quality affected habitations with adequate water supply. Against this as reported by the States on the Integrated Management Information System (IMIS) of this Ministry, during the Bharat Nirman Phase I from 2005-06 to 2008-09, 54,440 uncovered, 3,58,362 slipped back/partially covered and 50,168 quality affected habitations had been covered. Further, during Bharat Nirman Phase II period from 2009-10 upto 31.3.2012, a further 753 uncovered, 327,631 partially covered and 81,962 quality affected habitations have been reported covered. Newly identified slipped-back/ partially covered habitations have also been covered in this period. All identified uncovered habitations have now been reported as covered. (e): The reasons for not fully achieving the targets of coverage of quality affected habitations include high capital costs of large multi-village schemes to bring water from distant safe sources, time taken for planning, designing, sanctioning, procuring, execution and commissioning of such schemes, slipping back of habitations to partially covered status due to drying up of drinking water sources; lowering of ground water table; drinking water sources becoming contaminated due to natural and man-made causes; water supply systems outliving their life; systems working below rated capacities; poor operation and management of systems; increase in population and emergence of new habitations, procurement issues, etc. In order to achieve the target under NRDWP, the State Governments are vested with powers to plan, execute and implement drinking water supply schemes. The Central Government provides financial and technical assistance to the States to supplement their efforts to provide drinking water to the rural areas. They have to adopt improved Operation & Maintenance methods for better working of the rural water supply schemes and to control the leakages. Further, a separate Water Quality Monitoring & Surveillance Component with 3% of NRDWP allocation has been created to improve water quality testing. States have been given flexibility to cover water quality habitations from the funds provided under coverage, etc. The Government of India has given priority for coverage of Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribe concentrated habitations. There is a robust web-based monitoring mechanism at the central level to monitor the implementation of water supply schemes in the States. (f): Under the NRDWP during the 12th Five Year Plan period, it is proposed to lay emphasis on piped water supply in the rural habitations.

(a) the total funds earmarked for sanitation during each of the last three years and the current year;

(b) the total funds allocated, released and utilized and the total number of toilets constructed under the Total Sanitation Campaign (TSC) during each of the last three years and the current year, State-wise;

(c) whether the Government has taken note of the Census 2011 results that reveal that far lesser households are having toilets than that were claimed to be built by the States under TSC during the last decade;

(d) if so, the details thereof and the reasons therefor;

(e) the reaction of the Government thereto;

(f) whether the Government has increased/proposes to increase the per-toilet assistance to the beneficiaries under TSC; and

(g) if so, the details thereof alongwith the major changes made therein? MINISTER OF DRINKING WATER AND SANITATION (SHRI JAIRAM RAMESH) (a): The total funds provided under the annual budget of the Government of India for rural sanitation during each of the last three years and the current year is as under: Year Funds (Rupees in Crore) 2009-10 1200 2010-11 1580 2011-12 1500 2012-13 3500 (b): Total Sanitation Campaign (TSC), renamed as Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan (NBA), is a demand driven project based programme. Therefore, there are no annual allocations made to the States. The total funds released to the States as per their eligibility and utilization reported by the States through the online data monitoring system maintained by the Ministry during each of the last three years and the current year till July 2012 is at Annexure-I. State wise details of Individual Household Latrine (IHHL) reported to be constructed under NBA during each of the last three years and the current year, till July 2012, as per progress reported by the States is at Annexure-II. (c)to(e): In terms of Census 2011 report on availability and type of latrine facilities 2001-2011, a total of 31.7 percent of rural households have latrine in 2011, as against 21.9 percent in 2001. Out of the total project objectives of 12.57 crore Individual Household Latrines (IHHLs), 13,75,234 school toilet units, 5,34,931 Anganwadi toilets and 33,684 Community Sanitary Complexes (CSC) identified under the then TSC (now Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan (NBA)) for all the 607 rural district projects, 8.39 crore IHHLs, 11,90,229 school toilet units, 3,97,291 Anganwadi toilets and 22,978 CSCs have been completed till 2011 as per information provided by the States through online monitoring system maintained by the Ministry. While the above census figures reflect latrines of rural households at the time of conducting census in 2011, the NBA figures reflect the total number of IHHLs reported constructed against the specified project objectives during the period of programme implementation from April 1999 to December 2011. These do not take into account the increase in number of households because of rise in population or division of households. Toilets constructed but dysfunctional due to natural calamities, ill maintenance or other reasons may also account for these figures.

(f)&(g): The incentive provided to Below Poverty Line (BPL) household under NBA for construction and usage of Individual Household Latrine (IHHL) in recognition of its achievement was Rs.3200.00 (Rs.3700.00 for difficult and hilly areas) consisting of Central share of Rs.2200.00 (Rs.2700.00 in case of hilly and difficult areas) and State Share of Rs.1000.00. The provisions have since been changed with effect from 1.4.2012. The incentive amount to Below Poverty Line (BPL) households and identified categories of Above Poverty Line (APL) households for construction of one unit of IHHL is Rs.4600.00 (Rs.5100.00 for difficult and hilly areas). The central share out of this shall be Rs.3200.00 (Rs.3700.00 in case of hilly and difficult areas) and State Government share shall be Rs.1400.00. In addition, expenditure on unskilled labour (up to 20 person days) and skilled labour (up to 6 person days under material component) for construction of IHHL under NBA is also admissible under Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) subject to total value not exceeding Rs.4500 per IHHL Annexure-I Statement referred in part (b) of the reply to Lok Sabha Un-starred Question No. 400 due for reply on 09.08.2012 Funds released to the States and utilization reported during each of the last three years and the current year (Rupees in lakh)

KRUPARANI KILLI SHRI PREM DAS SAI Will the Minister of DRINKING WATER AND SANITATION be pleased to state:-

(c) whether there is a huge amount lying unspent with the State Governments under NBA;

(d) to (e): NBA is operated in a project mode wherein funds are released to the project districts through State Water and Sanitation Missions based on their eligibility as per the expenditure reported.

A part of the 1st installment of funds have been withheld till the states achieve progress in utilizing the available funds. The details of the States and the amount withheld are at Annexure I. As regards NBA, the State wise details of funds not released as first installment due to non-submission of requisite documents as per NBA guidelines including the Utilisation Certificate for releases made during previous year is at Annexure II.

MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) IN THE MINISTRY OF DRINKING WATER AND SANITATION (SHRI BHARATSINH SOLANKI) (a) to (c): A statement is laid on the Table of the House. Statement referred to in part (a) to (c) of Lok Sabha Starred Question No. 13 due for reply on 22.11.2012 (a) Yes, Madam. (b) As reported by the States/UTs on the online Integrated Management Information System (IMIS) of the Ministry of Drinking Water and Sanitation, as on 01.04.2012, there were 1,04,160 habitations with one or more of their drinking water sources contaminated with excess arsenic, fluoride, iron, salinity or nitrate, which are yet to be provided with safe drinking water. The State/UT-wise and contaminant-wise details of these habitations and population affected are at Annexure. (c) Rural water supply is a State subject. This Ministry supplements the efforts of the States by providing them with technical and financial assistance under the centrally sponsored National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP) for providing safe and adequate drinking water facilities in rural areas of the country. A budgetary allocation of Rs.10,500 crore has been made for the NRDWP in 2012-13. Up to 67 per cent of the NRDWP funds allocated to States on 50:50 Centre : State sharing basis (90:10 for North-East States and Jammu & Kashmir) can be utilized for tackling water quality problems in rural areas of the country. Further, 5% of NRDWP funds are earmarked and allocated on 50:50 Centre : State sharing basis (90:10 for North East States and Jammu & Kashmir) to those States facing problems of chemical contamination in drinking water or with Japanese Encephalitis or Acute Encephalitis Syndrome affected high priority districts. Technical assistance is provided to States through sharing information on technologies for treatment of contaminated water in Conferences, Exhibitions, meetings, Handbooks and visit of Technical officers. The Ministry has advised the States on adopting a two-pronged strategy viz., in the short-term to adopt in-situ treatment technologies for removal of specific contaminants and as a long term sustainable solution to provide safe drinking water from alternate safe surface/ groundwater sources. In addition to this, Government of India provides 3 per cent NRDWP funds on 100 per cent central assistance basis to States for water quality monitoring and surveillance, which inter alia include taking up works relating to setting up of new or up-gradation of district/ sub-district water quality testing laboratories, providing chemicals and consumables to laboratories, hiring of trained manpower for the laboratories and providing field test kits/ refills for testing of drinking water quality to Gram Panchayats. Further up to 10 per cent of NRDWP funds allocated to States could be utilized for sustainability of drinking water sources through artificial recharge of ground water and other methods, which inter alia may also dilute the level of contamination in aquifers.

The objective of NBA is to achieve sustainable behavior change with provision of sanitary facilities in entire communities in a phased, saturation mode with “Nirmal Grams’ as outcomes. The new strategy is to transform rural India into ‘Nirmal Bharat’ by adopting community saturation approach. The provision of incentive for individual household latrine units has been widened to cover all APL households who are SC/ST, small and marginal farmer, landless labourer with households, physically challenged and women headed households along-with all BPL households. Financial incentive for construction of toilets has been raised for all eligible beneficiaries to Rs. 4600 under NBA. In addition upto Rs. 4500 is permitted to be booked under Mahatma Gandhi NREGA for construction of the toilet and a beneficiary contribution of Rs.900/- taking the total unit cost of toilet to Rs.10,000/-. Conjoint approach with the

scheme of National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP) has been adopted to address the issue of availability of water in the Gram Panchayats for sustaining sanitation facilities created. Funds for capacity building of all stakeholders including Panchayati Raj Institutions(PRIs) and field level implementers have been earmarked under the revised strategy. Convergence with other State Departments like Health, Women & Child Development and Panchayati Raj is being focused upon. Provision has been made for incentivizing Accredited Social Health Activists(ASHAs) & Anganwadi workers for promoting sanitation. Self Help Groups, Women’s Groups & NGOs of repute are to be encouraged by states to participate in sanitation promotion. There is now a provision of social audit and active people’s participation in the implementation process of NBA through Gram Sabhas. The component of Solid and Liquid Waste Management (SLWM) has been prioritized by developing a roster of options and focussed funding. Total funds released and utilized during the last three years and the current year; State-wise is at Annexure-II (d) Presently NBA is being implemented in 607 rural districts of the country. (e) Government intends to cover all remaining rural districts during the next two years under the Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan(NBA) .

(e) Under the NRDWP, the State Governments are vested with powers to plan, execute, implement and operate drinking water supply schemes. States are required to prepare annual Action Plans to implement schemes, works and activities under the Programme to cover partially covered and quality affected habitations on priority and also mark the targeted habitations in the online IMIS. The Ministry monitors the proper utilization of funds by reviewing the programme through monthly reports entered on-line by States on IMIS in terms of coverage of habitations, completion of schemes and activities. Meetings of the State Secretaries in charge of rural water supply, regional review meetings, video conferencing etc. are conducted periodically to urge States to expedite utilization of funds and achievement of targets.

The expenditure under the programme is also audited every year. (f) Under the National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP), the Government of India provides financial and technical assistance to States to supplement their efforts to provide adequate safe drinking water to the rural population. A budgetary allocation of Rs. 10,500 crores has been provided for NRDWP in 2012-13. Under NRDWP, priority has to be given to cover partially covered and quality affected habitations with safe drinking water. 5% of NRDWP allocation is earmarked and allocated to those States facing problems of chemical contamination in drinking water or with Japanese Encephalitis and Acute Encephalitis Syndrome affected high priority districts.

There is shortfall in construction of toilets for APL households and Anganwadi toilets with achievement of 55.96% and 46.35% respectively. (c) Earlier there was no incentive for APLs for construction of Individual household latrines. Also unit cost of Anganwadi toilet was low. (d) To accelerate the progress of sanitation in rural areas, Government of India has designed a paradigm shift in TSC that is now called the Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan (NBA), in the XIIth Five Year Plan. The objective of NBA is to achieve sustainable behavior change with provision of sanitary facilities in entire communities in a phased, saturation mode with “Nirmal Grams’ as outcomes. The new strategy is to transform rural India into ‘Nirmal Bharat’ by adopting community saturation approach. The provision of incentive for individual household latrine units has been widened to cover all APL households who are SC/ST, small and marginal farmer, landless labourer with households, physically challenged and women headed households along-with all BPL households. Financial incentive for construction of toilets has been raised for all eligible beneficiaries from Rs. 3200/- to Rs. 4600/- under NBA. In addition upto Rs. 4500 is permitted under Mahatma Gandhi NREGA and a beneficiary contribution of Rs.900/-, taking the total cost of construction of a toilet to Rs.10,000/-. Unit cost of Anganwadi toilet has been increased from Rs. 5000/- to Rs.8000/-(Rs. 10000/- for Hilly and difficult areas) w.e.f. 1-4-2010.

KAMLA DEVI PATLE Will the Minister of DRINKING WATER AND SANITATION be pleased to state:- (a) the targets fixed for construction of toilets including Chhattisgarh during each of the last three years and the details of success achieved during the above period state-wise; (b) whether the Government has achieved the target of constructing one toilet in each of family in the country;

(c) if so, the details thereof and if not, the reasons therefor; (d) whether the Government has instructed the State Governments to achieve the target of constructing one toilet in each of family in the State in a stipulated timeframe; (e) if so, the details thereof and the steps taken by the Government in this regard; and (f) the percentage of people in rural areas of the country who use toilets, including Chhattisgarh State-wise? MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) IN THE MINISTRY OF DRINKING WATER AND SANITATION (SHRI BHARATSINH SOLANKI) (a): Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan(NBA) is demand driven programme, hence no state-wise annual targets are fixed for construction of toilets. The State-wise achievements including Chhattisgarh in construction of Individual household latrines during the last three years is at Annexure-I (b): No Madam, As per NBA objectives there were 12,57,26,727 rural households without toilets of which, till date 89417419(71.12%) toilets have been reported to be constructed as reported by States on the Online Monitoring System maintained by the Ministry. (c): Sanitation is a state subject. As per the Constitution 73rd Amendment Act, 1992, Sanitation is included in the 11th Schedule. Accordingly, States and Gram Panchayats have a pivotal role in the implementation of Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan (NBA). Reasons for relatively unsatisfactory performance of states lagging behind include: i.) Lack of priority for rural sanitation, ii.) Inadequate capacity building at grass roots iii) Lack of proper awareness generation. (d)&(e): NBA goal is to achieve 100% access to sanitation for all rural households by 2022. To accelerate the progress of sanitation in rural areas, Government of India has designed a paradigm shift in Total Sanitation Campaign (TSC) which is now called the Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan (NBA), in the XIIth Five Year Plan. The objective of NBA is to achieve sustainable behavior change with provision of sanitary facilities in entire communities in a phased, saturation mode with “Nirmal Grams’ as outcomes. The new strategy is to transform rural India into ‘Nirmal Bharat’ by adopting community saturation approach. NBA goal is to achieve 100% access to sanitation for all rural households by 2022. The provision of incentive for individual household latrine units has been widened to cover all APL households who are SC/ST, small and marginal farmer, landless labourer with homestead, physically challenged and women headed households along-with all BPL households. Financial incentive for construction of toilets has been raised for all eligible beneficiaries to Rs. 4600 under NBA. In addition upto Rs. 4500 to be booked under Mahatma Gandhi NREGA for construction of the toilet is permitted and a beneficiary contribution of Rs. 900, taking the total unit cost of toilet to Rs. 10000/-. Conjoint approach with the scheme of National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP) has been adopted to address the issue of availability of water in the Gram Panchayats for sustaining sanitation facilities created. Funds for capacity building of all stakeholders including Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs) and field level implementers have been earmarked under the revised strategy. Convergence with other State Departments like Health, Women & Child Development and Panchayati Raj is being focused upon. Provision has been made for incentivizing Accredited Social Health Activists (ASHAs) & Anganwadi workers for promoting sanitation. Self Help Groups, Women’s Groups & NGOs of repute are to be encouraged by states to participate in sanitation promotion. The component of Solid and Liquid Waste Management (SLWM) has been prioritized by developing a roster of options and focussed funding. The Government has increased the allocation under NBA from Rs.1500 crore in the year 2011-12, the last year of the XI Five Year Plan to Rs.3500 crore as Budget Estimate during the year 2012-13, the first year of the XII Five Year Plan

(b) Yes Madam, Government of India before sanctioning of district projects, provides Rs. 10 lakh for Start-up activities including conducting baseline survey in rural areas for preparation of district projects under Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan(NBA)/Total Sanitation Campaign (TSC). (c) In the last three years, no assistance has been provided for baseline survey. (d)&(e) Yes Madam, Programme Evaluation Office of Planning Commission has undertaken an Evaluation Study of Total Sanitation Campaign(TSC). It is under progress. (f) To accelerate the progress of sanitation in rural areas, Government of India has designed a paradigm shift in Total Sanitation Campaign(TSC) which is now called the Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan (NBA), in the XIIth Five Year Plan. The objective of NBA is to achieve sustainable behavior change with provision of sanitary facilities in entire communities in a phased, saturation mode with “Nirmal Grams’ as outcomes. The new strategy is to transform rural India into ‘Nirmal Bharat’ by adopting community saturation approach. NBA goal is to achieve 100% access to sanitation for all rural households by 2022. The provision of incentive for individual household latrine units has been widened to cover all APL households who belong to SCs, STs, small and marginal farmers, landless labourers with homesteads, physically challenged and women headed households along-with all BPL households. Financial incentive for construction of toilets has been raised for all eligible beneficiaries to Rs. 4600 under NBA. In addition upto Rs. 4500 to be booked under Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme for construction of the toilet is permitted and a beneficiary contribution of Rs. 900, taking the total unit cost of toilet to Rs. 10000/-. Conjoint approach with the scheme of National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP) has been adopted to address the issue of availability of water in the Gram Panchayats for sustaining sanitation facilities created. Funds for capacity building of all stakeholders including Panchayati Raj Institutions(PRIs) and field level implementers have been earmarked under the revised strategy. Convergence with other State Departments like Health, Women & Child Development and Panchayati Raj is being focused upon. Provision has been made for incentivizing Accredited Social Health Activists(ASHAs) and Anganwadi workers for promoting sanitation. Self Help Groups, Women’s Groups and Non Government Organisations of repute are to be encouraged by States to participate in sanitation promotion. The component of Solid and Liquid Waste Management (SLWM) has also been prioritized through focussed funding. Allocation for the NBA has been increased from Rs. 1500 crore in 2011-12(Revised Estimate to Rs 3500 crore in 2012-13(Budget Estimate) an increase of 133.33%.

MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) IN THE MINISTRY OF DRINKING WATER AND SANITATION (SHRI BHARATSINH SOLANKI) (a)&(b): The Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan(NBA) guidelines specifically provide under para 5.4.4 that construction of bucket latrines is not permitted in the rural areas and the existing bucket latrines, if any, should be converted to sanitary latrines. Govt. of India has been urging the States, including Uttar Pradesh (UP) and Uttarakhand for conversion of all dry latrines into sanitary latrines. Steps to increase construction of sanitary latrines include the increase in incentive amount under NBA, widening of eligible beneficiaries to include identified APL categories of households and convergence with Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) for additional funds for toilet construction. (c): The details of funds released and spent on Total Sanitation Campaign (TSC)/NBA including construction of toilets during the last three years and the current year, State-wise is at Annexure-1 (d)&(e): To accelerate the progress of sanitation in rural areas of country, including in UP and Uttarakhand, Government of India has designed a paradigm shift in Total Sanitation Campaign(TSC) which is now called the Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan (NBA), in the XIIth Five Year Plan. The objective of NBA is to achieve sustainable behavior change with provision of sanitary facilities in entire communities in a phased, saturation mode with “Nirmal Grams’ as outcomes. The new strategy is to transform rural India into ‘Nirmal Bharat’ by adopting community saturation approach. The provision of incentive for individual household latrine units has been widened to cover all APL households who belong to SCs, STs, small and marginal farmers, landless labourers with homesteads, physically challenged and women headed households along-with all BPL households. Financial incentive for construction of toilets has been raised for all eligible beneficiaries to Rs. 4600 under NBA. In addition upto Rs. 4500 to be booked under Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme for construction of the toilet is permitted and a beneficiary contribution of Rs. 900, taking the total unit cost of toilet to Rs. 10000/-. Conjoint approach with the scheme of National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP) has been adopted to address the issue of availability of water in the Gram Panchayats for sustaining sanitation facilities created and to meet the requirement of pour flush toilets as well.

It should review and monitor programme implementation so that the objectives of the district annual action plans may be achieved leading to sustainable Nirmal Gram Panchayats.

Block Resource Centres (BRC) are to be formed to provide guidance, support and monitor water supply and sanitation status in GPs. Block Panchayat is the ideal unit for providing support to a GP or a group of Gram Panchayats.

Village Water and Sanitation Committee are to be constituted as a sub-committee of Gram Panchayat in Gram Panchayats, for providing support in terms of motivation, mobilization, implementation and supervision of the programme. The VWSC should play a crucial role in the comprehensive and saturation approach to Nirmal Grams. DEMAND AND SUPPLY OF WATER 20th December, 2012 LSQ *387 SHRI SURENDRA SINGH NAGAR SHRI JITENDER SINGH


(a) the details of the present requirement and supply of drinking water per capita per day in each State in the country, State-wise;

(b) whether all the habitations in the country are getting drinking water as per their requirement; (c) if so, the details thereof and if not, the reasons therefor; and (d) the steps taken by the Government to ensure availability of requisite quantity of drinking water in the country?

MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) IN THE MINISTRY OF DRINKING WATER AND SANITATION (SHRI BHARATSINH SOLANKI) (a) to (d) A Statement is laid on the table of the House. Statement referred to in reply to parts (a) to (d) of Lok Sabha Starred Question No 387 to be answered on 20.12.2012. (a) to (d) : In the National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP) guidelines at present, the norm for providing drinking water supply in rural areas is 40 litres per capita per day (lpcd) for humans that is required to meet the needs of drinking, cooking, bathing, washing utensils and ablution, based on basic minimum need. An additional 30 litres per capita per day is to be provided for livestock in Desert Development Programme areas. State Governments have also been given the flexibility to fix their own higher norm based on water availability, demand and capital cost involved. Under the NRDWP, supply of the minimum required quantity of safe drinking water is monitored in terms of coverage of rural habitations. Habitations where drinking water supply systems provide atleast 40 lpcd or more to the entire population are considered fully covered, habitations where the water supply systems provide less than 40 lpcd to the population are partially covered, while habitations where at least one drinking water source is affected with chemical contamination are considered quality affected. As per the data provided by the States on the Integrated Management Information System (IMIS) of the Ministry, as on 1.4.2012, out of the 16,66,075 rural habitations in the country, 12,31,411 habitations are fully covered, 3,30,504 habitations are partially covered and 1,04,160 habitations are quality affected. State-wise details are at Annexure. The reasons for all the habitations not getting drinking water as per their minimum requirement include slipping back of fully covered habitations to partially covered status due to drying up of drinking water sources; lowering of ground water table; non-availability of sustainable drinking water sources close to habitations; drinking water sources becoming contaminated due to natural and man-made causes; water supply systems outliving their life; systems working below rated capacities; poor operation and management of systems; increase in population; emergence of new habitations and procurement issues delaying drinking water supply schemes. Drinking water supply is a State subject. However, under the National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP), the Ministry of Drinking Water and Sanitation provides financial and technical assistance to States to supplement their efforts to provide adequate safe drinking water through schemes like piped water supply schemes and handpumps to the rural population. A budgetary allocation of Rs. 10,500 crores has been provided for NRDWP in 2012-13 compared to Rs. 8,500 crore in 2011-12, i.e. an increase of about 24%. Under NRDWP, the States are to give priority to cover partially covered habitations with adequate safe drinking water in their Annual Action Plan. States have targeted to cover 1,15,139 partially covered habitations in 2012-13 under NRDWP. Annexure

last three years and the current year, State-wise? MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) IN THE MINISTRY OF DRINKING WATER & SANITATION (SHRI BHARATSINH SOLANKI) (a): Yes, Madam. The States have reported the names of rural habitations, including Scheduled Tribe (ST) concentrated habitations which are either partially covered or have quality problems with respect to drinking water supply, on the Integrated Management Information System (IMIS) of the Ministry. Under Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan(NBA) formerly known as Total Sanitation Campaign(TSC), totally 607 district projects have been sanctioned so far, including for 147 ST concentrated districts, that lack full coverage of sanitation facilities. (b): The details of the status of coverage of ST concentrated habitations with respect to drinking water supply, State-wise, as on 15.12.2012 is at Annexure I. The details of target and coverage of ST concentrated habitations under the National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP) during the last three years and the current year as on 15.12.2012, State wise is at Annexure II. Since NBA is a demand driven programme, no State-wise targets are fixed. However State-wise achievements made in the 147 ST concentrated districts during the last three years and the current year are at Annexure-III. (c): Under the NRDWP, 10% of the National allocation is earmarked for the Tribal Sub Plan (TSP) for expenditure in ST concentrated habitations. The budget under TSP for 2012-13 is Rs. 1050 crore. Under NRDWP, States are also required to provide drinking water facilities to all rural habitations including small and remote habitations irrespective of population size thereby enabling coverage of more ST concentrated habitations. States have to prepare Annual Action Plan in which targeting of coverage of ST concentrated habitations with drinking water supply is prioritized. As regards NBA, incentive for construction of individual households latrines is being provided to all ST households.

(d): The NBA guidelines specifically provide under para 5.4.4 that construction of bucket latrines is not permitted in the rural areas and the existing bucket latrines, if any, should be converted to sanitary latrines. Government of India has been urging the States, including Maharashtra for conversion of all dry latrines into sanitary latrines. Steps to increase construction of sanitary latrines include the increase in incentive amount under NBA, widening of eligible categories of beneficiaries to include identified APL households and convergence with Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) for additional funds for toilet construction. (e): The funds allocated and utilized under NRDWP by various States, including Maharashtra, in the last three years and the current year is at Annexure IV.

Ordinarily such complexes are constructed only when there is lack of space in the village for construction of household toilets and the community owns up the responsibility of their operation and maintenance. The ultimate aim is to ensure construction of maximum Individual household latrines(IHHLs) and construction of community complexes will be restricted to only when IHHLs cannot be constructed, for whatever reason. The maintenance of such complexes is very essential for which Gram Panchayat should own the ultimate responsibility. User families may be asked to contribute a reasonable monthly user charge for cleaning & maintenance. Such complexes be made at public places, markets, etc. where large scale congregation of people takes place. Suitable maintenance guidelines may be adopted by the community to ensure proper maintenance of the complex. Maximum unit cost prescribed for a community sanitary complex is up to Rs.2 lakh. Sharing pattern amongst Central Government, State Government and the community is in the ratio of 60:30:10. The community contribution, however, can be made by the Panchayat out of its own resources, from grants of the Thirteenth Finance Commission or from any other fund of the State duly permitted by it. Till date 25171 Community Sanitary Complexes have been constructed against objective of 33684.
