West Bengal’s housing scheme to be more flexible than PMAY
To counter PMAY, West Bengal government plans a rural housing scheme granting Rs 1.2 lakh in three tranches. It aims to cover those ineligible for the central scheme, including two-wheeler owners and partially concrete house owners, while fast-tracking applications for elderly citizens, women-headed households, and disaster-affected people. Launch expected by December-end for 12 lakh citizens.
