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

- (a) to  (c):  Ministry  of  Housing  and  Urban  Affairs  (MoHUA)  has  been implementing Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana - Urban (PMAY-U) since 25.06.2015 with an aim to provide all weather pucca houses with basic  civic  amenities  to  eligible  urban  beneficiaries  across  the country.  The  scheme  is  implemented  through  four  verticals.  The implementation period of PMAY-U scheme, which was earlier up to 31.03.2022,  has  been  extended  up  to  31.12.2025  to  complete sanctioned  houses  without  changing  the  funding  pattern  and implementation methodology.

Further, based on the learnings from the experiences of 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 in next five years.

PMAY-U 2.0 is implemented through four verticals i.e., Beneficiary Led  Construction  (BLC),  Affordable  Housing  in  Partnership  (AHP), Affordable  Rental  Housing  (ARH)  and  Interest  Subsidy  Scheme (ISS).  The  scheme  guidelines  can  be  accessed  at  https://pmayurban.gov.in/uploads/guidelines/Operational-Guidelines-of-PMAY-U2.pdf

Based on the project proposal submitted by States/Union Territories  (UTs),  a  total  of  122.06  lakh  houses,  including  10.43 lakh under PMAY-U 2.0, have been sanctioned under the scheme by the  Ministry,  so  far.  Out  of  which,  113.85  lakh  houses  have  been grounded, 96.02 lakh are completed and 93.39 lakh are occupied by the  eligible  beneficiaries  across  the  country  as  on  24.11.2025.  A total of 5,997 houses in Karauli and 5,303 houses in Dholpur have been  sanctioned  under  PMAY-U  and  PMAY-U  2.0,  of  which  3,741 and  5,222  have  been  grounded  respectively.  Out  of  total  houses sanctioned, a total of 2,213 houses in Karauli and 4,150 in Dholpur districts have been completed and handed over to beneficiaries, so far.

Eligible  citizens  across  the  country  are  allowed  to  apply  through Unified Web Portal of PMAY-U 2.0 and register their demand with all details on the portal at https://pmay-urban.gov.in. Validation and selection/scrutiny of beneficiary is done by States/UTs/Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) as per the eligibility criteria of the  scheme guidelines.
