The meeting reviewed the overall status of sanctioned, completed and under-construction houses under both schemes. Detailed discussions were held on accelerating the pace of construction, timely geo-tagging of completed houses, updating beneficiary details on the PMAY-U portal and ensuring prompt release of benefits to eligible beneficiaries.
The Chair directed all concerned officers to maintain accurate and updated records for effective monitoring and seamless implementation.
The progress of organizing Loan Melas for eligible beneficiaries was also reviewed. The CPO emphasized the need to create greater awareness about the Interest Subsidy Scheme (ISS) so that eligible beneficiaries can avail themselves of its benefits. He further instructed the concerned departments to take appropriate action in respect of non-starter beneficiaries and expedite the completion of non-starter Beneficiary-Led Construction (BLC) houses.
The meeting also reviewed the status of geo-tagging under PMAY-U 2.0, identification of projects under the Affordable Housing in Partnership (AHP) component and the preparation of District and Urban Local Body (ULB)-wise action plans for completion of all PMAY-U houses within the extended mission period.
Reviewing the implementation of PMAY-Gramin, the Chair assessed the status of completed and under-construction houses, pending cases and convergence with MGNREGA/VB-GRAM-G to ensure timely completion of rural housing units. He directed the concerned officers to identify bottlenecks delaying construction and resolve all pending cases on priority.
The progress of Capex works being executed under the housing sector was also reviewed. The officers were instructed to ensure quality execution of works, strict adherence to timelines and regular field monitoring for timely completion of all approved projects.
Emphasizing the objective of providing safe, secure and dignified housing to every eligible family, the Chair called upon all implementing agencies to work in close coordination, strengthen monitoring mechanisms and ensure that all pending houses are completed within the stipulated timeframe.
