Housing for All by 2024: The core vision is to ensure that every urban household, particularly the economically weaker sections, has access to affordable, quality housing by the year 2024.
Sustainable and Inclusive Development: The scheme emphasizes creating houses that are environmentally sustainable and accessible, ensuring inclusive growth in cities.
Use of Modern Technologies: The government promotes the use of eco-friendly and efficient construction technologies to build homes quickly while maintaining quality.
Focus on Women: Under PMAY, priority is given to women applicants, and ownership of the house is often mandated to be in the name of the woman of the household, promoting gender empowerment.
