Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana: How to apply for the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana? Learn how to build your own permanent home..

Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana: The Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY-G) is a major relief for poor and homeless families living in rural areas. This is a flagship scheme of the central government, aimed at providing permanent housing to those living in kutcha or dilapidated houses in villages. Under this scheme, every eligible family is provided with a house of at least 25 square meters with basic amenities, including a clean kitchen space.

The government identifies beneficiaries based on the Socio-Economic and Caste Census (SECC). This is followed by verification by the Gram Sabha. Upon approval, the funds are transferred directly to the beneficiary's Aadhaar-linked bank or post office account, ensuring transparency.

How to Apply for PMAY-G

If you want to avail the benefits of this scheme, follow the simple steps below:

First, visit the official PMAY-G website and log in.

Enter your name, mobile number, Aadhaar number, and other required information.

Upload your Aadhaar-use consent.

Search for beneficiaries by name, PMAY ID, or preference.
Start registration by clicking 'Select to Register'.

Fill in information about house ownership, family relationships, and other details.
Enter your bank account details. If you intend to take a loan, provide that information as well.
Enter your MNREGA job card number and Swachh Bharat Mission (SBM) number.
Final verification will be conducted by the relevant office.
Submit the application after verifying all documents.

Required Documents

Aadhaar card and a self-attested copy are required for the application. If the applicant is illiterate, a consent letter with a thumbprint must be submitted. Additionally, the MNREGA job card, bank account details, and SBM number are required. An affidavit must also be submitted, declaring that the applicant or their family does not already own a permanent home.

So, if you live in a rural area and do not yet have a permanent home, PMAY-G could be a golden opportunity for you.
