Both schemes provide subsidies and loans to help people build or buy homes. PMAY aims to ensure that every person in the country has a home at an affordable cost.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently released Rs 32 crore in the first installment to PMAY-G beneficiaries from Ranchi, Jharkhand. This event also saw the approval of 1,13,400 new houses to be built across Jharkhand for the poor and needy. The Prime Minister was originally scheduled to visit Jamshedpur for the event, but due to bad weather, the program was held in Ranchi.
