Lucknow: The Uttar Pradesh Housing Development Council is giving fresh momentum to the dream of home ownership for thousands of poor and needy families across the state. Under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY), affordable, safe and dignified housing is being provided in several districts, including Lucknow, helping families move from makeshift shelters to permanent homes.
Over the past months, the pace of construction and allotment of residential units for low-income households has gained significant traction. Families with an annual income of less than ₹3 lakh are being prioritised under affordable housing schemes. Multi-storey apartment blocks have been developed and handed over to eligible beneficiaries, many of whom previously lived in slums, rented rooms or temporary dwellings.
Officials said that basic civic amenities such as drinking water, electricity, internal roads and sanitation facilities have been ensured in these housing complexes. The initiative aims not only to provide houses but also to enhance the overall quality of life of economically weaker sections.
So far, 72 poor families have been allotted flats under the scheme in the latest phase. The implementation is being carried out in coordination with the Lucknow Development Authority, Housing Development Council, Municipal Corporation and PWD.
Authorities added that houses are being offered at subsidised rates with easy instalment facilities, reducing the financial burden on beneficiaries. The transition from kutcha houses to pucca homes is helping improve social security, health conditions and a sense of dignity among residents.
With the expanding rollout of PMAY projects in urban and semi-urban pockets, the long-cherished aspiration of owning a permanent home is gradually becoming a reality for thousands of families in Uttar Pradesh.
The Uttar Pradesh Housing and Development Council (UPAVP) has opened registrations for G+3 residential flats under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana – Urban (PMAY-U) in several districts of the state, including Lucknow, Moradabad, Etawah, and Bahraich.
