Implementing Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana – Urban (PMAY-U) to provide pucca house with basic amenities in the country

(a) ‘Land’ and ‘Colonization’ are State subjects. Therefore, schemes related to housing for their citizens are implemented by States/Union Territories (UTs). However, Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs supplements the efforts of States/UTs by providing Central assistance under Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana- Urban (PMAY-U) since 25.06.2015 to provide pucca houses with basic civic amenities to all eligible urban beneficiaries across the country. The details of the PMAY-U are as follows:

• The scheme is implemented through four verticals i.e. Beneficiary-Led Construction (BLC), Affordable Housing in Partnership (AHP), In-Situ Slum Redevelopment (ISSR) and Credit Linked Subsidy Scheme (CLSS).
• The Mission covers the entire urban area consisting of Statutory Towns, Notified Planning Areas, Development areas falling under the jurisdiction of Special Area Development Authorities, Industrial Development Authorities or any such authority under State legislation which is entrusted with the functions of urban planning & regulations.
• All houses under PMAY-U have basic amenities like toilet, water supply, electricity and kitchen.
• The Mission promotes women empowerment by providing the ownership of houses in name of female member or in joint name.
• Preference is also given to differently-abled persons, senior citizens, Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Other Backward Classes, Minority, single women, transgender and other weaker & vulnerable sections of the society.
• A comprehensive and Robust MIS System is in place that helps all stakeholders to seamlessly manage information pertaining to physical and financial progress including storing various records through digitisation such as Survey, Project information, Beneficiary details, fund utilisation etc. All houses under BLC/ AHP/ ISSR are geo-tagged to track actual progress on ground.
• MoHUA has set up a Technology Sub-Mission (TSM) under PMAY-U to facilitate adoption of modern, innovative and green technologies and building materials for faster and quality construction of houses.

Operation guidelines of PMAY-U is available at https://pmay- urban.gov.in/uploads/guidelines/62381c744c188-Updated-guidelines- of-PMAY-U.pdf

(b)&(c): PMAY-U is a demand driven scheme and Government of India has not fixed any target for construction of houses under the scheme. Based on the demand for housing in the urban areas, States/UTs prepare project proposals and after approval of State Level Sanctioning and Monitoring Committee (SLSMC), these are submitted to the Ministry for sanctioning of admissible Central Assistance by Central Sanctioning and Monitoring Committee (CSMC). Based on the project proposals submitted by the State of Maharashtra, 13.64 lakh houses have been sanctioned under PMAY- U as on 15.07.2024. Of the sanctioned houses, 11.16 lakh houses have been grounded for construction; of which 8.55 lakh are completed/ delivered to beneficiaries. During the last five years 7,87,148 lakh houses have been sanctioned. The district wise details of houses sanctioned, grounded and completed/delivered to the beneficiaries in Maharashtra during the last five years is at Annexure.
