The Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) has recently released a new list. Under this scheme, you can check if your name is included and, if so, receive financial assistance of INR 1,20,000. Let’s delve into the details of the scheme, the benefits it offers, and how you can check your status and apply.
Overview of PM Awas Yojana
Launched on June 25, 2015, by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana aims to provide affordable housing to the economically weaker sections and labor class families. The central government has been providing financial assistance since 2015 to help people build their own houses, benefiting families without homes in both rural and urban areas.
The objective of PMAY is to ensure that every family living below the poverty line has their own house and does not have to rent. The target set by Prime Minister Modi for his tenure is to build three crore houses. This scheme aids homeless people in urban and rural areas, helping them secure a stable and permanent residence.
Financial Assistance Under PM Awas Yojana
Beneficiaries of the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana receive financial assistance of INR 1,20,000. This amount is disbursed in three easy installments directly into the beneficiary’s bank account. Additionally, beneficiaries are provided with an extra INR 12,000 to construct a toilet in their home.
For those residing in hilly areas, the assistance amount is increased to INR 1,30,000. This ensures that people living in challenging terrains also benefit adequately from the scheme.
