Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) is set to change housing in Karnataka with a goal to deliver 1,80,253 houses by December 2026. This big plan, supported by the Karnataka government and the Slum Development Board, aims to provide affordable homes to many. If you want to know how PMAY is moving forward in Karnataka and how the government is helping with beneficiaries’ contributions, this article covers all the key details.
PMAY Housing Targets in Karnataka by 2026
Housing Minister Zameer Ahmad Khan recently shared in the Legislative Assembly that the construction of 1,80,253 houses under PMAY will be finished by December 2026. This project is being carried out by the Karnataka Slum Development Board and is a big step towards providing affordable housing to slum dwellers and poor sections in the state.
One of the main challenges during the project was the non-payment of the beneficiaries’ share, which delayed progress. To fix this, the government decided to cover the beneficiaries’ contribution itself. After bringing this issue to the Chief Minister’s attention, ₹500 crore was released to support the scheme. This move has helped clear financial hurdles and speed up the housing construction process.
Phased Allotment and Construction Progress
In the first phase, 36,789 houses have already been allotted to beneficiaries. Preparations are now underway to allot 40,345 houses in the second phase. The Chief Minister has directed that all work be completed by 2026, and steps are being taken to make sure this happens on time. This phased approach helps in steady progress and good management of resources.
Additional Housing Projects for Poor Families
Besides the PMAY houses, another 47,870 houses are being built for poor families under the Rajiv Gandhi Housing Corporation. This project also faced similar problems due to non-payment of beneficiaries’ contributions. After raising the issue with the Chief Minister, approval was given in principle for the government to cover these costs as well. A proposal for this support will soon be presented to the Cabinet for approval, making sure poor families get the housing help they need.
