(b) &(c) The funds for Maintenance & Repair (M&R) for NHs provided by the Ministry of Finance to this Ministry
are of the order of about 40% of the actual requirement as per the Ministry’s stipulated norms. Accordingly, it is not

on the basis of length of NH network and the condition of the NHs. The funds are released state/project wise and not
National Highway (NH) wise. However, the details of funds allocated and expenditure incurred for M&R of NHs in the
state of Madhya Pradesh during the last three years and the current year are as under:
