## ANSWER THE MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF HOUSING & URBAN POVERTY ALLEVIATION (SHRI BABUL SUPRIYO)

****

- (a): The Registrar General, India (RGI) has stated that they conduct decennial  Population  Census  in  two  phases  viz.  Houselisting  and Housing Census and Population Enumeration, wherein data are collected  on  all  households/persons  including  slum  dwellers  and  the data on amenities available to various types of households including slum  households  are  collected  in  the  Housing  Census.    RGI  has, therefore,  stated  that  percentage  slum  population  without  any  basic amenities is not available from Census.
- (b): Government  of  India  has  taken  following  measures  to  provide housing along with basic facilities/amenities to the slum dwellers:-
-  Government implemented the Jawaharlal  Nehru  National  Urban Renewal  Mission  (JNNURM)  for  assisting  State  Governments  in providing housing and basic services to urban poor/ slum dwellers in 65  select  cities  including  Metros  under  the  Sub  Mission  Basic Services to the Urban Poor (BSUP) and in other cities and towns, under  the  Integrated  Housing  and  Slum  Development  Programme (IHSDP).    Mission  duration  was  7  years  from  2005-06  which  has been extended upto March, 2017 for completion of projects sanctioned upto March, 2012.
-  Government  also  implemented  Rajiv  Awas  Yojana  (RAY)  for providing houses along with basic civic and social infrastructure for slum  dwellers  and  urban  poor.    Rajiv  Awas  Yojana  has  been discontinued and liabilities against 183 ongoing RAY projects have been  subsumed  in  Pradhan  Mantri  Awas  Yojana-Housing  for  All (Urban) Mission.
-  The Government of India has launched the Pradhan Mantri Awas
- Yojana-Housing for All (Urban) Mission on 25.6.2015 with the aim to provide assistance to States/UTs in addressing the housing

requirement of the slum dwellers and urban poor with the housing shortage estimated at 2 crore; exact scope will, however, emerge after demand  assessment by all States/Cities. The Mission envisages houses essentially with toilet facilities and other requisite infrastructure particularly power supply, water supply and drainage/sanitation.

(c): Details of funds released and construction of houses completed during  each  of  the  last  three  years  and  current  year  under  JNNURM and  RAY  is  at  Annexure-1.    Details  of  Economically  Weaker  Section (EWS) houses sanctioned under Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana-Housing for All (Urban) Mission is Annexure-2.

(d): Land  and  colonisation  are  State  subjects  and  the  States/UTs prioritise and frame suitable plans to make cities slum free.  They may seek  central  assistance  under  Pradhan  Mantri  Awas  Yojana-Housing for All (Urban) Mission which envision housing for all by 2022.
