Key Highlights

  • 300 square meters of land provided to poor families.

  • Beneficiaries include freed, nomadic, and semi-nomadic families.
  • Lease distribution starts on October 2 (Gandhi Jayanti).

The Indian government has been making continuous efforts to support the poor and homeless families in the country. One such initiative is the PM Awas Yojana, which aims to provide homes for the underprivileged. In line with this, various state governments are running their schemes to offer support to needy families. In Rajasthan, the Free Plot Scheme is being implemented to help homeless and nomadic families. On October 2, marking Gandhi Jayanti, the state government will begin distributing land leases under this scheme.

What is the Free Plot Scheme?

The Free Plot Scheme is a state-level initiative aimed at providing 300 square meters of land to poor families, particularly those from freed, nomadic, and semi-nomadic communities. The government is offering this land at extremely low rates to ensure these families can build permanent homes and lead more secure lives.

Cost of the Plot

The scheme offers plots at a nominal cost depending on the population of the village, based on the 1991 census:

  • In villages with a population below 1,000, the plot cost will be Rs 2 per square meter.
  • In villages with a population between 1,000 and 2,000, the rate will be Rs 5 per square meter.
  • In larger villages, the cost will be Rs 10 per square meter.

Who Will Benefit?

The Free Plot Scheme is designed for the freed, nomadic, and semi-nomadic families living in rural areas of Rajasthan. These communities often lack permanent residence and live in temporary camps, constantly moving from one place to another. With the scheme, they will finally have an opportunity to own land and build permanent homes.

Definition of Beneficiary Families

To be eligible for the scheme, the family unit is defined based on the age and marital status of its members:

  • If a family member is under 21 years of age and unmarried, they will be considered part of their parent’s family.
  • If a person is over 21 years of age and married, they will be considered a separate family, even if they live in the same household.

Documents Required for the Scheme

To apply for the Free Plot Scheme, eligible families will need to provide the following documents:

  • The Aadhaar card of the beneficiary
  • The income certificate of the family
  • Caste certificate
  • Ration card
  • Passport-sized photo
  • The mobile number of the beneficiary

Lease Distribution on October 2

On Gandhi Jayanti, Rajasthan Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma will distribute land leases to eligible families, officially launching the campaign. The government plans to provide leases to 34,000 families, offering them a new chance to establish permanent homes.

The identification of the eligible families is still ongoing. Currently, around 6 to 8 percent of Rajasthan’s population belongs to freed, nomadic, and semi-nomadic communities. These families often do not have proper identification documents, which limits their access to government benefits. To address this, the government has developed a process to issue caste identity certificates instead of traditional caste certificates, helping these communities access various welfare schemes.

CMV360 Says

The Free Plot Scheme is a significant step toward improving the living conditions of nomadic and homeless families in Rajasthan. By offering 300 square meters of land at minimal costs, the state government is ensuring that these communities can build permanent homes and achieve greater stability. The lease distribution on October 2 will mark the beginning of a new chapter for many families, as they take a step toward secure and stable housing.
