## ANSWER THE MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) OF THE MINISTRY OF HOUSING AND URBAN AFFAIRS

(SHRI HARDEEP SINGH PURI)

- (a): The Government of India is aware of the increasing urbanisation and  existence  of  slum  settlements  across  the  country.  'Land' and  'Colonisation'  are  State  subjects  and  therefore  it  is  the responsibility of the State/ Union Territory (UT) Governments to implement schemes for urban and slum development. However, in  order  to  proactively  address  the  housing  requirement  of eligible urban households including slum dwellers, the Government of India through the Ministry of Housing and Urban

Affairs (MoHUA) had launched the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Urban (PMAY-U) Mission on June 25, 2015 to assist States/ UTs both financially and technically. PMAY (U) envisages to provide all  weather  pucca  houses  with  basic  civic  infrastructures  like water, sanitation, sewerage, road, electricity etc. to all eligible urban  households  including  slum  dwellers.    The  'In-situ'  Slum Redevelopment (ISSR) component under PMAY-U Mission mandates use of land as a resource for providing houses to slum dwellers across the country. This approach aims to leverage the locked  potential  of  land  under  slums  to  provide  houses  to  the eligible  slum  dwellers  by  bringing  them  into  the  formal  urban settlement.

- (b): The MoHUA regularly monitors and reviews the overall progress component, undertaken  under  PMAY-U  Mission  through  an  Inter-Ministerial Committee  viz.  Central  Sanctioning  and  Monitoring  Committee (CSMC)  constituted  under  the  Chairpersonship  of  Secretary,
- of the projects, including those under ISSR Ministry of Housing & Urban Affairs.
- (c):  The  details  of  houses  constructed  during  the  last  three  years and  number  of  houses  allotted  to  the  people  of  SC,  ST  and minority community, State-wise and year-wise are at Annexure.
