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

- (a) to  (d):  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 period has been extended up to 31.12.2025 to complete sanctioned houses without changing the funding pattern and implementation methodology. 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://pmay-urban.gov.in/uploads/guidelines/OperationalGuidelines-of-PMAY-U-2.pdf

PMAY-U & PMAY-U 2.0 are demand driven scheme. Selection of beneficiaries, under various verticals preferred by the beneficiaries, formulation  of  projects  and  execution  including  allotment  of  completed houses  to  the  eligible  beneficiaries  are  done  by  States/Union  Territories (UTs).  As  per  the  scheme  guidelines,  it  is  mandated  that  all  States/UTs must provide on-site infrastructure such as internal roads, pathways, water supply sewerage/ septage, drainage, external electrification etc. in PMAY-U &  PMAY-U  2.0  projects  from  their  own  resources  or  by  converging  with various  schemes.  Dwelling  units  under  projects  shall  have  water  supply, electricity,  kitchen  and  toilet  conforming  to  NBC/  State/  Local  Authority norms.

Based on the project proposal submitted by States/UTs, a total of 122.06 lakh houses including 10.43 lakh under PMAY-U 2.0, have been sanctioned since  inception  of  the  scheme  by  the  Ministry.  Out  of  which  113.85  lakh houses have been grounded and 96.02 lakh are completed/delivered to the beneficiaries across the country, as on 24.11.2025. The State/UT-wise and vertical wise details of houses sanctioned, completed and occupied are at Annexure.

Occupancy  of  completed  houses  is  an  important  concern  raised  with States/UTs  during  periodically  held  review  meetings.  The  reasons  of unoccupancy  includes  incomplete  basic  infrastructure  such  as  water, roads and electricity, migration or unwillingness to relocate from existing livelihoods and  social networks,  financial constraints in contributing beneficiary share, delays in documentation and allotment by implementing agencies.  The  States/UTs  are  advised  to  improve  occupancy  of  houses under PMAY-U by providing civic infrastructure and ensuring allotment to beneficiaries  on  priority.  The  Ministry  conducts  regular  review  meetings with States/UTs to complete the remaining houses and ensure occupancy within the stipulated timeframe.

(e): A  total  of  6,675  houses  have  been  sanctioned,  out  of  which  6,673 houses have been grounded and 6,200 houses are completed/delivered to the beneficiaries in the Mayiladuthurai Constituency.
