MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT (SADHVI NIRANJAN JYOTI)

- (a): To achieve 'Housing for All' in rural areas, the Ministry of Rural Development is implementing Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yojana- Gramin (PMAY-G)  w.e.f.  1 st April  2016.  The  target  is  to  construct  2.95  crore pucca houses with basic amenities by March 2024. As on 13.12.2023, a  target  of  2.95  crore  houses  has  been  allocated  to  States/UTs,  of which,   more  than  2.94  crore  houses  have  been  sanctioned  to  the

beneficiaries  by  the  States/UTs  and  2.51  crore  houses  have  been completed. As on date 13.12.2023, the total fund released in the State of Rajasthan is Rs. 12,667.02 crore under PMAY-G since inception and the  pending  liability  for  FY  2023-24  is  Rs.  40.47  crore.  The  State  of Rajasthan  has  been  requested  to  submit  a  complete  proposal  for release of funds. Further, as on 13.12.2023, the number of the houses targeted,  sanctioned,  completed  and  fund  utilized  in  the  State  of Rajasthan  District  wise  is  attached  as  per  Annxeure  I.  The  Central Assistance under PMAY-G  is released directly to the State/UT considering the State/UT as a unit.

- (b)  &  (c):  The  National  Housing  Bank  (NHB)  has  been  identified  by the  Ministry of Rural Development (MoRD), as a Central Nodal Agency (CNA)  for  implementation  of  the  Rural  Housing  Interest  Subsidy Scheme (RHISS) in Rural Areas. The NHB is implementing the Scheme through eligible Primary Lending Institutions (PLIs), which have signed MOUs with NHB, as per the Scheme Guidelines issued by the MoRD. RHISS is applicable for home loans sanctioned and disbursed post 1906-2017. The full details of the RHISS scheme are available in public domain on NHB's website, and can be accessed through the following link-

https://nhb.org.in/government-scheme/rural-housing-interest-subsidy-scheme/

As  per  the  data  available  on  the  RHISS  portal  of  NHB  as  on  13-122023,  2790  claims  of  subsidy  amount  of  Rs.  3.63  crore  are  pending with NHB at various stages. The oldest claim which was uploaded on 16-12-2022 on the RHISS portal is pending due to non-compliance of the PLIs viz.: receipt of additional information/ clarification/ compliances/uploading of geo-referenced time and date stamped photographs and captured on AwaasSoft through AwaasApp in RHISS Mobile App and submitting Claim Application Form (CAF) after getting it signed and stamped by the authorized signatory on the RHISS portal.

There is an  unspent  balance  of  Rs.  27.44  crore   available  with  NHB  under RHISS as on 12.12.2023.
