## 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  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  (ISSR)  and  Credit Linked Subsidy Scheme (CLSS). As on 03.03.2025, a total of 118.64 lakh houses have been sanctioned under the scheme since inception, out of which  112.46 lakh have been  grounded, of which  90.60 lakh are completed. The remaining houses are at different stages of construction.

PMAY-U adopts a demand driven approach and there is no fixed target. States/Union Territories (UTs) assess the requirement through their Urban Local Bodies (ULBs)/Implementing Agencies in their respective jurisdictions,  select  the  beneficiaries  based  on  eligibility  criteria  and implement housing projects. Based on the demand survey and selection of beneficiaries,  the  project  proposals  are  prepared  and  approved  by  the State  Level  Sanctioning  and  Monitoring  Committee  (SLSMC)  headed  by the Chief Secretary of States/UTs for further consideration of release of Central  Assistance  by  Central  Sanctioning  and  Monitoring  Committee (CSMC).

Based on project proposals submitted by the State Governments of Uttar Pradesh  under  PMAY-U,  as  on  03.03.2025,  a  total  of  17,76,823  houses have been sanctioned by the Ministry, out of which 16,82,567 houses have been completed. Further, 10,750 houses have been sanctioned in Bahraich  Parliamentary  Constituency  of  Uttar  Pradesh,  out  of  which 10,653  houses  have  been  grounded  and  9,933  are  completed.  The remaining  houses  are  at  different  stages  of  construction.  City-wise Construction  Progress  in  Bahraich  Parliament  Constituency  of  Uttar Pradesh under PMAY-U is at Annexure.

The scheme period, which was earlier up to 31.03.2022, has further been extended  up  to  31.12.2025  to  complete  sanctioned  houses  without changing  the  funding  pattern  and  implementation  methodology.  The Ministry  conducts  regular  review  meetings  with  States/UTs  to  complete the remaining houses within the stipulated timeframe.

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  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). Moreover, in-principle approval of 6.77 lakh houses have been provided to 30 States/UTs which have signed Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) to implement PMAY-U 2.0 for eligible beneficiaries.
