(a)to(e) 'Land' and 'Colonization' are State subjects. Schemes related to housing  in  their  respective  areas  areimplemented  by  States/  Union Territories (UTs). However, Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) has  been  implementing  Pradhan  Mantri  Awas  Yojana - Urban

(PMAY-U)  since  June  25,  2015  to  provide  pucca  house  in  urban  areas across the country by providing Central Assistance to eligible beneficiaries of Economically Weaker Section (EWS), Low Income Group (LIG) and Middle Income Group (MIG) categories. Under PMAY-U, a total of  118.64  lakh  houses  have  been  sanctioned  by  the  Ministry,  which includes 98.76 lakh houses for EWS, 13.79 lakh for LIG and 6.08 lakh for MIG beneficiaries as on date.

Details of the number of houses sanctioned, under construction, and completed during each of the last three years is at Annexure-I. Details of houses sanctioned, grounded, completed, and occupied by beneficiaries State/UT  wise  is  at  Annexure-II.  States/  UTs  have  been  advised  to expedite  the  construction  of  sanctioned  houses  so  that  all  houses  are completed within the stipulated timeline.

Based  on  9  years  of  experience  and  learning  from  implementing PMAY-U,  MoHUA  has  revamped  the  scheme  and  launched  PMAY-U  2.0 'Housing for All' Mission with effect from 01.09.2024 for implementation in  urban  areas  across  the  country  to  construct,  purchase  and  rent  a house  by  1  crore  additional  eligible  beneficiaries  at  affordable  cost through four verticals i.e., Beneficiary Led Construction (BLC), Affordable Housing  in  Partnership  (AHP),  Affordable  Rental  Housing  (ARH)  and Interest  Subsidy  Scheme  (ISS).  As  on  date,  29  States/UTs  have  signed Memorandum  of  Agreement  (MoA)  to  implement  PMAY-U  2.0  as  per scheme guidelines.  The  operational  guidelines  of  the  PMAY-U  2.0  have been  launched  on  17.09.2024.
