NEW DEUil; KISHAN SINGH SANGWAN, April "19, 1999 Chainnlln, Chaitra 29, 1921 (Salaz) Standing Committee on Urban & Rural Development. (v) CHAPTER I REPOlU This Report of the Committee on Urban &t Rural Development (1998-99) deals with the action taken by the Government on the recommendations contained in their First Report on Demands for Grants for the year (1998-99) of the Ministry of Urban Affairs &: Employment (Department of Urban Development) which was presented to Lok Sabha on 7th July, 1998. 2. Action taken notes have been received from the Government in respect of all the 22 recommendations which have been categorised as follows: (i) Recommendations/Observations which have been accepted by the Government: Para Nos. 2.7, 2.8, 2.10, 3.13, 3.14, 3.16, 3.22, 3.23, 3.28, 3.29, 3.30, 3.33, 3.47, 3.55, 4.13, 4.21, 5.3 and 6.6 (ii) Recommendations/Observations which the Committee do not desire to pursue: -Nil- (iii) Recommendations/Observations in respect of which replies of the Government have not been accepted by the Committee: Para Nos. 2.9 and 3.15 (iv) Recommendations/Observations in respect of which final replies of the Government are still awaited: Para Nos. 3.39 and 4.14 • 3. The Committee require that final replies in respect of the recommendations for which only interim replies have been given by the Goftl'lllftent should be fumiehecl to Committee within three months of the preeentation of the Report. 2 4. The Committee will now deal with action taken by the Government on some of these recommendations in the succeeding paragraphs. A. Budgetary allocation for 9th Plan Recommendation (Para 2.8) 5. The Committee had recommended: "It is observed from the broad analysis of the budgetary allocation that the tentative outlay of Rs. 2300 crore for 9th Plan as agreed to by the Planning Commission against the proposed outlay of Rs. 11795 crore is very much on the lower side. The Committee note with concern the observation of the Officials of the Department during their evidence before them that the targets sets during 9th Plan would have to be reduced keeping in view the lesser allocation of funds by the Planning Commission. Further disturbing is the fact that the Government would not be able to take up new programmes/schemes which they have planned for the 9th Plan. The whole exercise of planning for urban sector would be futile without sufficient funds. The Committee would, therefore, like to recommend that keeping in view the broad activities of the Department sufficient funds should be provided." 6. The Government in their reply have stated as follows: "Planning Commission has been apprised of the above observation of the Parliamentary Standing Committee. It was brought to the notice of Planning Commission that the tentative outlay of Rs. 2300 crore allotted to the Ministry for the Department of Urban Development for the 9th Plan is inadequate to meet the priorities and targets set under different schemes of the Urban Development for 9th Pian. It was also mentioned that New Housing Policy known as "National Housing at Habitat Policy 1998" through the National Agenda declared Housing for All as a priority area lays greater focus on the housing needs of citizens in general and that of the poor and• the deprived in particular. New National Housing and Habitat Policy-l998 sets a target of construction of 2 million houses every year with emphasis on the poor and deprived. We have requested. the Planning Commission to enhance the 9th Plan outlay for thia Ministry". 3 7. While noting the reply of the Government that Planning Commiuion have been requested to enhance the 9th Plan outlay of the Ministry, the Committee would like, to be apprised of the response of the Planning Commiuion in this regard. B. Underutilisation of funds allotted for different schemes/programmes Recommendation (Para 2.9) 8. The following is the recommendation of the Committee: "The Committee further note with concern the variation between BE, RE and actuals during 1997-98. The outlay for Rs. 529.00 crore which was reduced at RE stage to Rs. 510.00 crore even that could not be fully utilised by the Department. While recommending for higher outlay during 9th Plan, they would like that the Government should ensure the proper execution and implementation of the projects/ schemes undertaken by the Department so that the resources allocated are utilised fully." 9. The Ministry in their Action Taken Reply have stated: liThe divisional Heads in the Deptt. of Urban Development have been advised to take appropriate steps to erbure full utilisation of the funds allotted to them. They have also been requested to take appropriate steps to overcome the constraints faced in utilisation of resources and implementation of scheme." 10. The Committee are not inclined to accept the reply furnished by the Government that Divisional Heads had been advised to take appropriate steps to ensure full utilisation of the funds allocated to them. The Committee would like to be apprised of this specific steps taken or proposed to be taken not only by the Divisional Heads but by the Department as a whole. C. Enhanced allocation during IX Plan for IDSMT Recommendation (Para 3.13) 11. In the recommendation it has been stated as below: "The Committee note that the main objective of the IDSMT scheme is to develop selected regional growth centres with in&astructure and service fadlities so as to enable such towns 4 to emerge as regional centres of economic growth and employment opportunities and arrest migration from rural areas and small towns to large Il\d metropolitan cities.

During the late '80s and the '90s, a flurry of sadhu activism coincided with the dramatic rise of a previously insignificant political party, the Bhartiya JanataParty (BJP). As a conservative Hindu nationalist party, the BJP allied with many sadhus, came to power at the center and in many states, breaking the monopoly that the relatively secular Congress party had held for more than four decades.
