PM Awas Yojana in J&K: Changing Lives in Bhaderwah
Bhaderwah in Jammu and Kashmir is benefiting from the government’s big housing program. The Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) aims to provide affordable housing for everyone, and in Bhaderwah, this is becoming a reality. Building 679 houses this year shows the government’s commitment to uplift poor families and improve rural infrastructure and welfare.
Focusing on Poor and Tribal Families
The scheme focuses on families living in unsafe and unhygienic places, especially those from poor and tribal backgrounds. PMAY makes sure these families get permanent, solid homes with proper facilities, improving their health, safety, and dignity.
Progress and Statistics
In 2023-24, 718 beneficiaries in Bhaderwah were identified for PMAY support. Out of these, 679 houses have already been completed. This achievement meets the targets and promises ongoing work to cover all eligible beneficiaries soon.
How Houses Are Built under PMAY
The government uses a clear step-by-step process to make sure houses are built and given on time. From finding beneficiaries to finishing the houses, every stage is carefully managed. Teams work with local officials to solve challenges, especially in hilly areas like Bhaderwah, ensuring timely delivery of quality homes.
Personal Stories: Impact on Residents
“Earlier, I faced many problems living in a falling-down mud house with my children and family, especially during storms and rain. But with the government’s help, I now have a new house under PMAY. I thank Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the district administration for giving us a solid home,” said Shahdi Lal, a 66-year-old daily wage labourer from Bhaderwah.
Shahdi Lal’s story shows how PMAY is a lifeline for families who couldn’t afford safe housing. The new, sturdy home protects his family from bad weather and improves their overall quality of life. Stories like this show the wide benefits of this key rural housing scheme for at-risk people in Jammu and Kashmir.
Bhaderwah’s progress under PMAY shows how good governance and focused welfare programs can bring lasting improvements at the local level. For more details, you can visit the official PMAY website: https://pmaymis.gov.in.
