## ANSWER THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF HOUSING AND URBAN AFFAIRS (SHRI TOKHAN SAHU)

- (a) to  (e):  Ministry  of  Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) is implementing Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana - Urban (PMAY-U) since June 25, 2015 to provide pucca house with basic amenities to eligible urban beneficiaries. PMAY-U has been implemented in all the statutory towns as  per  Census  2011  and  towns  notified  subsequently  along  with Metropolitan cities and smaller towns including Notified Planning/Development area under the jurisdiction of an Industrial Development Authority/Special Area Development Authority/Urban Development  Authority  or  any  such  Authority  under  State  legislation which is entrusted with the functions of urban planning and regulations. The  towns  and  Development  Authority  areas  are  included  under  the scheme  by  the  Ministry  based  on  request  sent  by  the  respective States/Union Territories (UTs). PMAY-U houses have been sanctioned in 4,895 Cities/Urban Local Bodies (ULBs)/ development authorities/notified areas/cantonment  boards  including  all  Metropolitan  Cities  across  the country. State/UT-wise number of cities/towns/Development Authorities areas is at Annexure.

Further, based  on  the learning from the experiences  of 9 years implementation  of  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 support  1  crore  additional  eligible  beneficiaries  through  four  verticals i.e., Beneficiary Led Construction (BLC), Affordable Housing in Partnership (AHP), Affordable Rental Housing (ARH) and Interest Subsidy Scheme  (ISS). The Cities/Towns and areas falling under Notified Planning Areas, Notified Planning/Development area under the jurisdiction of Industrial Development Authority/Special Area Development Authority/Urban Development Authority or any such Authority,  where  PMAY-U  is  implemented  will  continue  to  be  covered under  PMAY-U  2.0.  New  cities/ULBs  notified  by  States  are  included  in the list based on request sent by States/UTs.
