## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT (DR. CHANDRA SEKHAR PEMMASANI)

- (a) & (b):  The Ministry of Rural Development is implementing the Pradhan MantriAwaasYojana-  Gramin  (PMAY-G)  w.e.f.  1st  April  2016  to  provide assistance  to  eligible  rural  households  for  the  construction  of Pucca houses with basic amenities to achieve the objective of "Housing For All" in  rural  areas.  Under  the  PMAY-G,  the  initial  target  was  construction  of 2.95 crore houses during FY 2016-17 to 2023-24. The Government of India has approved the proposal for implementation of the scheme for 5 more years during FY  2024-25  to  2028-29  to  provide assistance  for the construction  of 2 crore additional  houses  as  per  the  existing unit assistance.  Under  the  PMAY-G,  the  beneficiaries  are  identified  from  the Socio-Economic  Caste  Census  (SECC)  2011  based  Permanent  Wait  List (PWL) and finalisedAwaas+ (2018) survey lists (after updation). A target of 3.33  crore  houses  have  been  allocated  to  the  States/Union  Territories (UTs), against which they have given house sanctions to more than 3.21 crore  beneficiaries  and  2.67  crore  houses  have  been  completed  as  of 28.11.2024.  The  existing  SECC  2011  PWL  and  Awaas+  2018  list  for  the State  of  Gujarat  is  already  saturated  by  allocation  of  target  of  9,02,354 houses  under  the  PMAY-G  by  this  Ministry.  The  Ministry  allocates  the target to the States/UTs and the further distribution of targets is done by

the  State/UT  themselves.  The  targets  fixed,  houses  sanctioned  and completed under PMAY-G in the State of Gujarat and particularly in Dahod, Panchmahal  and  Mahisagar  districts  of  Gujarat  State,  as  of  28.11.2024, are given in Annexure.

The  Ministry  of  Housing  and  Urban  Affairs  (MoHUA)  has  been implementing  the  Pradhan  MantriAwasYojana  -  Urban  (PMAY-U)  since June  25,  2015,  with  the  aim  of  providing  all-weather  pucca  houses equipped  with  basic  amenities  to  all  eligible  urban  beneficiaries.  The scheme is implemented through four verticals: Beneficiary Led Construction (BLC), Affordable Housing in Partnership (AHP), In-Situ Slum Redevelopment (ISSR), and the Credit Linked Subsidy Scheme (CLSS), as per  the  eligibility  criteria  outlined  in  the  scheme  guidelines.  Based  on project  proposals  received  from  the  States/UTs,  a  total  of  118.64  lakh houses have been  sanctioned  by  the  Ministry,  out  of  which  114.22  lakh have been grounded and more than 88.22 lakh are completed/delivered to the beneficiaries as on 25.11.2024. The remaining houses are at different stages of construction. A total of ₹1.99 lakh crore of Central Assistance has been sanctioned, ₹1.66 lakh crore released, and utilization certificate of  about  ₹1.56  lakh  crore  has  been  received  under  the  scheme,  so  far. PMAY-U scheme is demand based scheme hence targets are not assigned and houses approved, grounded for construction & completed/delivered in the state of Gujarat and particularly in Dahod, Panchmahal and Mahisagar districts of Gujarat State are given in Annexure.

(c): The PMAY-G has been approved for implementation till March, 2029 to provide assistance to additional 2 crore houses for achieving 'Housing for All'  in  rural  areas,  and  this  includes  the  saturation  of  the  existing beneficiary lists of the scheme  by  covering  the  remaining  eligible households. The Awaas+ 2024 Mobile App has already been launched on 17.09.2024  for  conducting  survey  by  the  States/UTs  as  per  modified exclusion  criteria  to  identify  additional  eligible  households  under  the PMAYG.

PMAY-U:  The  Mission  Period  was  up  to  31.03.2022  which  has  been extended  up  to  31.12.2024  only  to  complete  all  the  sanctioned  houses without changing funding pattern and implementation methodology of the scheme. CLSS vertical has not been extended beyond 31.03.2022.
