In order to achieve the target of “Housing for All” in rural areas, the Ministry of Rural Development is implementing Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yojana- Gramin (PMAY-G) with effect from 1^st April, 2016 to provide assistance to construct 2.95 crore pucca houses with basic amenities. The initial timeline for PMAY-G was 2022, which has now been extended to March, 2024. Out of the overall target of 2.95 crore houses, a target of 2.92 crore houses had been allocated to States/Union Territories UTs), out of which, 2.49 crore houses have been sanctioned to beneficiaries by various States/UTs and 2.10 crore houses have been completed as on 07.12.2022.

The targets under PMAY-G are set annually on the basis of availability of eligible beneficiaries, achievements of targets allocated during the preceding years, discussions held with States/UTs during Annual Action Plan and proposal of the State/UT. After allocation of annual targets, further distribution of targets among beneficiaries in various districts/blocks/villages is done by the States/UTs on the basis of eligible number of beneficiaries in the Permanent Wait List (PWL)/finalized Awaas+ list.

Under the PMAY-G, there is a grievance redressal mechanism set up at different levels of administration viz., Gram Panchayat, Block, District and the State. An official of the State Government is to be designated at each level to ensure disposal of grievances to the satisfaction of the complainant. The official who is designated at each level is responsible for disposing off the grievance / complaint within a period of 15 days from the date of receipt of the grievance / complaint.

The cases of irregularities reported by the Hon’ble Members of Parliament, Members of State Assembly and general public are taken up with the State Government for comments and for taking necessary action.

There is also a procedure of lodging of complaints on the Centralized Public Grievance Redress and Monitoring System (CPGRAMS) portal (pgportal.gov.in) by the public. The complaints received in the Ministry of Rural Development through CPGRAMS or otherwise are forwarded to the respective State Governments/ Union Territory (Union Territory) Administrations for redressal of the grievance.

Since inception of PMAY-G i.e. 01.04.2016 till 08.12.2022, a total of 1,451 complaints relating to irregularities in implementation of PMAY-G have been received in the Ministry of Rural Development on CPGRAMS.
