An amount of Rs. 245.88 crore (including both Central and State share) is lying unspent with the States/UT Governments under Swarna Jayanti Shahari Rozgar Yojana (SJSRY) since its inception. The details of unspent funds, State-wise, is given in the Annexure. This unspent balance is due to huge amount of funds transferred from the old urban poverty alleviation schemes, as opening balance for SJSRY. Non-utilization of funds due to lack of flexibility in the scheme guidelines, component wise release/monitoring of funds, non-cooperation of banks under self-employment component, etc.
The States/Union Territory Governments are instructed from time to time to make vigorous efforts to maximize the achievements with reference to the utilization of the available funds and to also contribute and utilize the matching State share and to timely furnish the requisite utilization certificates and Quarterly Progress Reports so that allocated funds are fully released/utilized. The State/ Union Territory Governments are persuaded from time to time for effective implementation of the scheme and close monitoring is done at the Central level through periodical review meetings/field visits and Quarterly Progress Reports.
This information was given by Minister of State (I/C) in the Ministry of Urban Employment & Poverty Alleviation, Kumari Selja in her written reply to the question of Shri G.M. Siddeswara in the Lok Sabha, today.
