Road and highway ,power and irrigation of Madhya Pradesh

Road:

MP’s performance in utilization of PMGSY funds during XI Plan has been

widely appreciated but adequate funds were not provided on the pretext of

PMGSY guidelines. State has been able to provided road connectivity to all

villages as per the guidelines in short period as compare to other states. To meet the goal of providing connectivity to all villages irrespective of population state needs huge resources  for which Centre should consider of lowering the population criterion for providing connectivity to targeted villages under PMGSY during XII Plan, for

states like Madhya Pradesh which has lower population density (dispersed

population) and high proportion of tribal population.

energy,:- Energy sector plays an important role in the development of agriculture,

industry and social sectors. Bulk of the state’s budget outlay during XI Plan was

dominated by energy sector and at the same time there still exists a big gap

between generation and demand. All out efforts are

being made to implement the regulatory reforms besides dedicated effort to

separate the feeder distribution for different category of consumers such as user

for agricultural purposes, domestic and commercial at a very high cost. In case of thermal power generation, to maintain optimum level of production,

the issues related to rationalization of coal supply and its movement, adequacy

of coal availability and making available the annual contracted quantity of coal

needs to be resolved at the earliest. e Constituted GoM for the purpose should

resolve these constraints relating to the establishment of Thermal Plants by

allocating pit head coal blocks in their proximity to reduce the cost of

movement.

Poverty:-

State welcomes the initiative taken by the Central government to conduct a

fresh survey “Socio-economic Census in Rural Areas 2011” to study the present

socio-economic status of all section of society. The poverty

estimates should not only consider monthly per capita expenditure (inclusive of

expenditure on education, health etc.) but also basic requirements for leading

healthy life with optimum productivity and the deprivation from various

facilities and services should also be factored in.

Highway-

The National highways in Madhya Pradesh are in extremely poor condition. NHAI has thoroughly neglected the

maintenance of national highways for the last few years. State urges the

Ministry of Road Transport to ask NHAI to maintain these national highways

Properly. State can take up the programme for rehabilitation and reconstruction of

these national highways in case of de-notification takes place.    Longest, smallest, total length… data included.
