The government has completed more than 2.82 crore houses under Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yojana-Gramin (PMAY-G) out of 4.12 crore allocated. The scheme targeted 2.95 crore homes from FY 2016–17 to FY 2023–24.
The Union Cabinet extended PMAY-G for five more years, adding a goal of 2 crore houses. This brings the total target to 4.95 crore homes across India. States and Union Territories have received allocations and approvals to implement the plan.
For FY 2025–26, officials set a target of 32.9 lakh houses, with 25.6 lakh already sanctioned. From FY 2020–21 to FY 2024–25, authorities sanctioned 216.73 lakh homes and completed 176.47 lakh. The programme shows consistent progress in rural housing development.
PMAY-G offers financial aid to houseless families and those living in kutcha homes. Beneficiaries receive pucca houses with piped water, LPG, and renewable energy. The scheme improves rural living, reduces poverty, and strengthens housing infrastructure across the country.
