What happened: Odisha’s PMJANMAN status, PVTG data mapping, and multi-department convergence

The Ministry of Tribal Affairs reported that it monitored interventions under **Pradhan Mantri Janjati Adivasi Nyaya Maha AbhiyaN (PMJANMAN)** across implementing states, including Odisha. The release provides Odisha’s state/district-wise benefit status for PMJANMAN (as of **30.06.2026**) and progress on other Ministry schemes through separate annexures.

The release also explains how the Ministry assessed progress using periodic reviews, field-level monitoring, and reports from the concerned State Governments and implementing agencies. The statement links programme implementation to improvements in availability of basic amenities and livelihood opportunities for **Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTGs)** in Odisha.

A key operational activity reported for Odisha is habitation-level data collection using the **PM Gati Shakti** mobile application. The exercise was used to estimate PVTG population and infrastructure gaps for PVTG populations residing in villages/habitations covered under PMJANMAN.
