Provision of housing Units
Construction of houses and associated infrastructure
The Ministry implements housing projects targeting families earning an income of up to Rs 30,000 through the NHDC Ltd, its implementing agency.
The type of housing unit has been reviewed to accommodate at least 2 bedrooms, 1 kitchen, 1 living room, 1 toilet and 1 bathroom.
Social and recreational amenities are provided within the housing estates, where required, so as to better integrate the residents within these housing estates.
The housing units are sold to beneficiaries by the NHDC Ltd, with subsidy from the Government as follows:
