Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Chandigarh

Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana, Urban (PMAY) is an initiative launched by the Government of India under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. As per this scheme, affordable housing will be provided to the urban poor between 2015-2022, with the help of financial assistance provided by the central government. The target groups are Economically Weaker Sections and Low-Income Groups.

The government has been trying to make housing more affordable over the years. However, 2016 and 2017 was one of the most successful years with the implementation of PMAY and CLSS. The government, last year, was focusing on building more houses for Economically Weaker Sections (EWS) and Lower Income Groups (LIG). The government had also introduced the Credit Linked Subsidy Scheme (CLSS) to help middle-class individuals purchase housing.

Since the beginning of the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (Urban), the government has provided over 30 lakh housing to the people in order to accomplish the initiative of ‘Housing for all by 2022’. This has allowed the lower income groups and economically weaker sections afford housing and this scheme is expected to enable more individuals to do so in the near future.
