## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF HOUSING AND URBAN AFFAIRS

(SHRI KAUSHAL KISHORE)

- (a) & (b): Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) is implementing  Pradhan  Mantri  Awas  Yojana  -  Urban  (PMAY-U)  since 25.06.2015 to provide pucca house with basic amenities to all eligible urban  beneficiaries  across  the  country.  The  scheme  is  implemented through four verticals i.e., Beneficiary Led Construction (BLC), Affordable Housing  in  Partnership (AHP), In-Situ  Slum  Redevelopment
- (g) State/UT-wise?

(ISSR)  and  Credit  Linked  Subsidy  Scheme  (CLSS)  based  on  eligibility criteria as per scheme guidelines. Against the validated demand of 1.12 crore houses, as on 31.03.2022, 122.69 lakh houses were sanctioned, out of which more than 1.07 crore have been grounded and 68.02 lakh have  been  completed/delivered  to  the  beneficiaries.  The  State-wise for construction, completed/delivered along with Central Assistance are at details of total number of houses sanctioned, grounded Annexure.

- (c)  & (d): PMAY-U is implemented with the vision of 'Housing for All'. The scheme adopts a demand driven approach wherein States/Union Territories (UTs) have been empowered to recommend the projects to MoHUA  for  the  beneficiaries  identified  by  them  through  a  demand survey based on eligibility criteria, as mentioned below:
- (i)  Not  owning  pucca  house  in  his/her  name  or  any  other  family member's name, anywhere in India.
- (ii)  Belonging  to  Economically  Weaker  Section  (EWS)  with  annual household income of upto ₹3 lakh.
- (iii) Ownership of land to avail benefit under BLC component of the Mission.

Selection of beneficiaries is done by the States/UTs/Urban Local Bodies (ULBs)  based  on  the  above  criteria  only,  irrespective  of  name  of beneficiary  listed  in  SECC-2011  or  otherwise.  The  PMAY-U  proposals are approved by the State Level Sanctioning and Monitoring Committee (SLSMC)  headed  by  the  Chief  Secretary  of  States/UTs  for  further and sanctioning of Central Assistance by Central Sanctioning Monitoring Committee (CSMC).

- (e) &  (f): For transparent selection of beneficiaries, scrutiny of beneficiaries is done at multiple levels in the States/UTs for approval. Selection of beneficiaries under BLC/ISSR vertical is done at the initial stage of project formulation. Under the AHP vertical, the beneficiaries are shortlisted through a transparent allotment process by the implementing agencies after start of construction work at site. However,  during  the  project  period,  if  any  beneficiary  under  AHP vertical is unable to pay their own contribution or found ineligible, other eligible beneficiaries from the waiting list prepared by the implementing  agencies  at  the  time  of  allotment,  are  considered  for allotment  of  AHP  houses.  From  time  to  time,  addition/deletion  of beneficiaries, if requested by States/UTs in already sanctioned projects, are done with the prior approval of respective SLSMC.

Any  instance of irregularity/complaint/representation regarding the implementation of PMAY-U including those of ineligible applicants are addressed  through  suitable  grievance  redressal  system  available  at both  State/UT  and  City  level  as  per  existing  rules  and  regulations. Moreover,  a  Centralised  Public  Grievance  Redress  and  Monitoring System  (CPGRAMS)  is  also  available  to  the  citizens  to  lodge  their grievances to the public authorities on any subject related to service delivery  including  PMAY-U  for  redressal.  Further,  MoHUA  has  also developed  a  Public  Grievances  Redress  and  Monitoring  System  for registering any form of complaints regarding implementation of PMAY-U and its speedy disposal.

(g):  No,  Sir.  As  per  the  scheme  guidelines,  Central  Assistance  under different  verticals  are  released  to  the  States/UTs  in  3  instalments  of 40%,  40%  and  20%  based  on  compliances  submitted  by  the  State/UT. Further, the disbursement of instalments (Central Assistance and State Share, if applicable) to beneficiaries by States/UTs varies from State to State  depending  upon  the  physical  &  financial  progress  of  projects/ houses.
