The budget demand proposal, sent to the Finance Ministry on behalf of the Ministry, has been emphasized only on the housing scheme for everyone. According to ministry sources, proposed proposal for allocation of about 20 thousand crore rupees for the housing mission for all under Prime Minister's Housing Scheme in the financial year 2018-19 has been made.
It may be mentioned that in the current financial year 2017-18, the Finance Ministry had allocated Rs. 6200 crores for this scheme. According to sources, in the initial round of discussions on budgetary allocation, the finance ministry had given a proposal to allocate 11 thousand crore rupees in this item, but the Ministry of Housing and Urban Development has built 12 million cheap houses by 2022 under this scheme. Referring to the goal of doing so, he has refused to compromise on budget allocation for this scheme.
The ministry has argued that considering the high priority of Prime Minister Narendra Modi for providing home to all homeless families in the country, the Finance Ministry should allocate an amount of at least Rs. 17 thousand crore in the budget for this scheme. The housing and urban development ministry will not be satisfied on the allocation of lesser amount.
he Ministry has recently decided to organize international competition to complete the campaign to build a cheap and sustainable home for speeding up the Prime Minister's housing scheme. An official of the Ministry said that "Global Housing Construction Technology Challan" will be organized in the coming March for the selection of world's leading companies in the construction sector, which will meet the criteria for completing this scheme.
The Ministry of International Affairs, Bloomberg has created a 'Knowledge Partner' for organizing the competition. Companies participating in a one-month long competition will have to make the models of cheap and durable house with the best technology in the shortest possible time. Successful companies will be given the task of making cheap accommodation in different areas under this scheme.
Earlier, for the Smart City project, Bloomberg also organized a 'Global Challenge' as a knowledge partner. Under the Pradhanmantri Awas Yojana, only 2.91 lakh houses have been created so far in the 'Sabkay Ko Ghar' campaign launched four years ago. According to official figures, the Ministry has released Rs. 11899 crore to the states under the scheme from the financial year 2014-15 to 2017-18.
However, after the slow pace of construction of houses in the scheme, the construction of houses has increased in the last two years. In the year 2014-15, there were only 2506 households in the country. After this, it increased to 18706, in 2016-17, 66985 in 2016-17 and 203094 homes in 2017-18.
