ANSWER MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT (SHRI KAMLESH PASWAN) (a) & (b): Ministry of Rural Development (MoRD) is implementing a number of welfare schemes/programmes such as Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS), Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yojana-Gramin (PMAY-G), Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY), Deendayal Antyodaya Yojana - National Rural Livelihoods Mission (DAY-NRLM), Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Grameen Kaushalya Yojana (DDUGKY), Rural Self Employment Training Institutes(RSETIs), National Social Assistance Programme(NSAP) and Watershed Development Component of Pradhan Mantri Krishi Page 1 of 9Sinchayee Yojana (WDC-PMKSY). These schemes/programmes aim to address the challenges in rural areas of the country, alleviate poverty and to bring about overall improvement in the quality of life of the people in rural areas of the country by strengthening livelihood opportunities, providing minimum guaranteed employment, promoting self-employment, skilling of youths in various useful trades and entrepreneurship qualities, infrastructure development and provision of social assistance. State/Union Territory-wise funds allocated and utilized under MGNREGS, PMAY-G and NRLM during the last three years wherever maintained is at Annexure- I.

(d): Evaluation of schemes/programmes of MoRD is a continuous process and necessary corrective actions are taken based on the assessment of their implementation at ground level. Under MGNREGS, a third-party study in terms of increase in household income, poverty alleviation etc. sponsored by NITI Aayog in 2020 has been made. As per the study, MGNREGS found to be a powerful instrument for inclusive growth in rural India through its impact on social protection, livelihood security and democratic empowerment. It provides livelihood security for the poor through creation of durable assets, improved water security, soil conservation and higher land productivity. It has had a positive impact on the standard of living of households through increase in household income by improvements in production from agriculture and has led to major increases in wages of rural workers. Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and Women along with socially excluded communities benefit from and are included in MGNREGS plans which could be a significant indicator of poverty alleviation in rural areas. Similarly, an impact evaluation study of the DAY-NRLM was conducted during 2019–20 by the International Initiative for Impact Evaluation (3ie), with support from the World Bank. This large-scale study aimed to assess the effectiveness, outcomes, and delivery gaps in the implementation of the scheme. The evaluation covered 9 states-Bihar, West Bengal, Odisha, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, and Uttar Pradesh-and involved a sample of approximately 27,000 respondents and 5,000 Women’s Self-Help Groups (SHGs). Key findings from the evaluation include: Page 2 of 9i. Income Enhancement: Women in SHGs located in treatment areas recorded a 19% increase in income over the baseline, demonstrating the scheme's positive impact on livelihoods. ii. Improved Access to Formal Credit: A 20% decline in reliance on informal loans was observed, indicating greater financial inclusion and access to formal credit channels. iii. Savings Growth: A 28% increase in household savings was reported, reflecting enhanced financial resilience among SHG members. iv. Higher Workforce Participation: A 4% increase in secondary occupation participation was observed among women in treatment areas, suggesting improved economic engagement. In addition to this, as per the mandate of Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act, the Ministry has laid emphasis on the setting up of an institutional structure at the States/UTs level for facilitating social audits of all the Gram Panchayats at least twice a year. With the consistent efforts by Ministry, a total of 27 States and 1 UT have established Independent Social Audit Units. Similarly, PMAY-G guidelines mandate Social Audit to ensure achievement of public accountability in PMAY-G implementation. This is an ongoing process involving public vigilance and verification, and is to be conducted in every Gram Panchayat at least once in a year involving a mandatory review of all aspects. (e) & (f): MGNERGS is implemented on an end-to-end integrated transaction-based MIS platform called NREGASoft through which all aspects relating to planning, administrative and technical approval of the scheme, issue of job cards, acceptance of demand, issue of muster roll, measurement, approval of payment and finally payment to the beneficiary through a DBT-PFMS platform are monitored. Transparency and accountability are the prime focus of the scheme. Ministry of Rural Development has adopted a robust process for ensuring transparency and accountability in the implementation of the scheme across the States/UTs. Various monitoring and evaluation arrangements made to ensure the workers get timely wage payments under the Scheme include:- Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) system in wage payment, National Mobile Monitoring Service (NMMS) for capturing of attendance at worksites, Area Officer Monitoring Visit Application for field visit of officials, GIS based plan– Use of Space Technology, Software for Estimate Calculation for using Rural Rates for Employment (SECURE) software for online estimate generation etc. Page 3 of 9Similarly, PMAY-G is monitored very closely at all levels. There is a special emphasis on quality and timely completion of construction. The details of the monitoring mechanism adopted under PMAY-G include monitoring progress of construction through the geo-tagged, time and date-stamped photographs for each stage of construction, periodical visit of National-level Monitors and Area Officers, inspection of houses by the Project Management Unit (PMU) at the State level, community-based participatory monitoring system utilizing the services of the Self Help Group (SHG), 100% Aadhaar- Based Payments to beneficiaries through the AwaasSoft- PFMS platform electronically, monitoring progress of different parameters for implementing the scheme through the Performance Index Dashboard etc. Under PMAY-G, various technology-based solutions to maximize transparency and ensure sanctity in the process right from the identification to completion of the houses include: i. Awaas+ 2024 app- having features of assisted survey through pre-registered surveyors, housing technology selection, face authentication, Aadhar based e-KYC, data capture of household, conditions of existing house, time stamped, and geo tagged photo capture of existing house, proposed site of construction.
