The government has allowed the construction of 16,488 houses in urban areas under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY). The Union Housing and Urban Affairs (HUA) Ministry decided at a meeting of the Central Sanctioning and Monitoring Committee (CSMC), attended by officials from 4 states and UTs. The houses are recommended to be built under Beneficiary-Led Construction (BLC) and Affordable Housing in Partnership (AHP) verticals of PMAY-U.
“The sanctions have been supplied to States/UTs, and they should be fast in finishing all the projects in the given time,” HUA Secretary Durga Shanker Mishra said. “After this, the total number of houses under PMAY-U will be 113.06 lakh, of which 85.65 lakh are in construction, and over 51 lakh are built and delivered to the beneficiaries,” the ministry told.
