The Centre plans to provide more funds for construction of houses in rural areas as part of its ambitious programme to provide shelter for all in the next few years and to bundle this with amenities such as cheap power, water and construction labour.
Around 30 million houses are planned under the prime minister’s Housing for All scheme in rural areas, each a minimum size of 250 sq ft. It will subsume the existing Indira Awas Yojana (IAY) and the per-unit subsidy for construction will be also raised. At present under IAY, the money allotted for building one house is Rs 70,000 in the plains and Rs 75,000 for hilly and difficult areas, found to be substantially inadequate.
Officials said the unit allocation might even be doubled. “The matter is being looked at by the finance ministry. We’re hopeful that the funds to be given to each homeless family for construction of a house in rural areas would be adequate,” a senior official said. He said a cabinet note on this was due for clearance
