## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF RURAL DEVELOPMENT (DR. CHANDRA SEKHAR PEMMASANI)

(a): In  order  to  achieve  the  target  of  'Housing  for  All'  in  rural areas,  the  Ministry  of  Rural  Development  is  implementing  Pradhan MantriAwaasYojana-  Gramin  (PMAY-G)  with  effect  from  1st  April, 2016  to  construct  4.95  crore  houses  with  basic  amenities by providing  assistance  to  eligible  rural  households  by  March  2029. The Union Cabinet has also approved the proposal for 'Implementation of the Pradhan MantriAwaasYojanaGramin (PMAY-G)  during  FY  2024-25  to  2028-29'  for  the  construction  of additional 2 crore rural houses. As on 28.11.2025, a total target of 4.14 crore has been allocated to the States/UTs, out of which 3.86 crore  houses  have  been  sanctioned  and  2.91  crore  houses  have been completed. The number of beneficiaries belonging to Scheduled Castes (SCs), Scheduled Tribes (STs), women and other

marginalized  groups  under  Pradhan  MantriAwasYojana(PMAY-G)  in

Karnataka, district-wise are available at below links on AwaasSoft:

https://rhreporting.nic.in/netiay/SocialProgressReport/Ownershipdeta ilsofhousessanctionedreport.aspx https://rhreporting.nic.in/netiay/SocialProgressReport/Categorywiseh ousescompletedreport.aspx

Further, the number of households in the Awaas+ 2018 list under Pradhan MantriAwaasYojana - Gramin (PMAY-G) in Karnataka, district-wise as on 27.11.2025 is provided at Annexure I.

- (b): Under  PMAY-G,  the  scheme  aims  to  provide  benefit  to  the most vulnerable eligible beneficiaries based on housing deprivation parameters and exclusion criteria prescribed under Socio Economic Caste Census (SECC) 2011. Further, a minimum of 60% of the target allocated  to  each  State/UT  is  earmarked  for  Scheduled  Caste (SC)/Scheduled  Tribes  (ST)  households  subject  to  availability  of eligible beneficiaries in the Permanent  Wait List (PWL). The earmarking defines only the minimum limit that should be achieved and if  the  States/UTs  so  desire,  they  may  add  to  the  target  under these categories to ensure saturation. Further, the Ministry allocates  the  targets  to  the  State/UT  as  a  whole  and  Districtwise/Block-wise/Gram  Panchayat  wise  targets  are  fixed  by  the State.

Further, under Pradhan MantriJanjatiAdivasiNyayaMahaAbhiyan (PM-JANMAN) of Ministry of Tribal  Affairs,  the  provision  of  pucca  house  to  the  Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Groups (PVTG) households is one of the interventions being implemented by the Ministry of Rural Development. The target is to provide financial assistance to 4.90 lakh  eligible  PVTG  beneficiaries  in  convergence  with  PMAY-G  for the  construction  of  pucca  houses  with  basic  amenities.  As  on 28.11.2025, a total of 4.71 lakh houses have been sanctioned and 2.40 lakh houses have been completed.

- (c): The identification of  beneficiaries under PMAY-G is based on the housing deprivation parameters and exclusion criteria prescribed under Socio Economic Caste Census (SECC) 2011. These criteria  were  applied  on  SECC  2011  database  and  a  system generated priority list of households from the  database  was deliberated upon in Gram Sabha meetings. After due verification by

the  Gram  Sabhas  and  completion  of  appellate  process,  Gram panchayat-wise Permanent Wait List (PWL) was prepared. Thereafter,  Awaas+  2018  survey  was  conducted  during  January 2018 to March 2019 to identify those beneficiaries who, though are eligible  for  inclusion  in  PWL,  but  claimed  to  be  left  out  from  the SECC  2011.  In  this  exercise,  the  States/UTs  uploaded  details  of additional  households,  which  were  also  subjected  to  Gram  Sabha verification and Appellate Process.

Further, it is also informed that the Union Cabinet has approved the extension of  PMAY-G for 5 more years (FY 2024-25 to 2028-29) to provide  assistance  for  the  construction  of  2  crore  additional  rural houses.  In  accordance  with  the  approval  of  the  Union  Cabinet,   a new  survey  is also being conducted  for  the identification of additional  eligible  households  by  the  States/  UTs,  including  the State of Karnataka, using eKYC face-based authentication through the Awaas+ 2024 mobile app and with modified exclusion parameters.

- (d): The  Ministry  is  taking  the  following  steps  to  ensure  timely completion and delivery of houses under PMAY-G in rural areas of Karnataka:
1. Regular review of progress at the level of Ministry.
2. Launch  of PMAY-G  analytic Dashboard  for monitoring and supervision of the scheme.
3.  Timely  allocation  of  targets  to  the  States/UTs  and  release  of adequate funds.
4. Regular follow ups with the State to ensure release of central and state share of funds and provision of land to landless beneficiaries in rural areas.
5.  Awards  to  the  best  performing  States/UTs,  Districts  based  on performance index dashboard, thereby creating healthy competition and motivation among the States/UTs for achieving the set targets.
