Aiming at reducing India’s dependence on monsoon and improving farm productivity, the government has decided to amalgamate all ongoing irrigation schemes under various departments and ministries under the Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojana (PMKSY) to be directly monitored by the Centre. The Cabinet has decided to allocate Rs 50,000 crore under the scheme for the next five years. All prepared programmes under the scheme will be supervised and monitored at the national level by an inter-ministerial National Steering Committee under the chairmanship of the Prime Minister along with Union Ministers concerned. All structures created under the schemes will be geo-tagged. A National Executive Committee will be constituted under the Chairmanship of the Vice-Chairman, NITI Aayog, to oversee issues such as programme implementation, allocation of resources, inter-ministerial coordination, monitoring and performance assessment, and administrative issues. The scheme aims at bringing ministries, departments, agencies, research and financial institutions involved in the creation, recycling, potential recycling of water under a common platform so that a comprehensive and holistic view of the entire “water cycle” is taken into account and proper water budgeting is done for all sectors. The block or the district level will make the plans and send them to the state for approval.
Currently, 142 million hectares are used for cultivation, of which only 45% farmland is under irrigation. The spending this year is expected to bring an additional 6 lakh hectares under irrigation, while 5 lakh hectares will benefit from drip irrigation. That apart, 1,300 watershed projects have been marked for completion.
