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 to provide all weather pucca houses with basic civic
amenities to eligible urban beneficiaries across the country. 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).
PMAY-U & PMAY-U 2.0 are demand driven schemes and as per the Scheme Guidelines, selection of
beneficiaries under different verticals through suitable means, formulation & execution of projects
including allotment of completed houses are done by States/UTs. The allotment as well as occupancy of
the houses sanctioned under different verticals under the scheme are done through transparent processes
to ensure that all houses under PMAY-U are completed and occupied by the intended and eligible
beneficiaries only.
Based on the project proposal submitted by States/UTs, a total of 122.28 lakh houses including 10.66
lakh under PMAY-U 2.0 have been sanctioned by the Ministry, so far. Out of which, 114.84 lakh houses
have been grounded and 97.02 lakh are completed/delivered to the beneficiaries across the country,
including Andhra Pradesh as on 22.01.2026.
Further, a total of 19.48 lakh houses have been sanctioned under PMAY-U & PMAY-U 2.0 for the State
of Andhra Pradesh, out of which 18.34 lakh houses have been grounded and 11.24 lakh houses have
completed so far.
District-wise details of houses sanctioned, completed and occupied in Andhra Pradesh are at Annexure.
Occupancy of AHP houses in Andhra Pradesh remains a major concern due to lack of civic infrastructure.
State has been requested to expedite the occupancy of AHP houses at the earliest.
The Ministry conducts regular review with the States/UTs on progress of the scheme including timely
completion and allotment of all sanctioned houses within stipulated timeline.
