Strong Emphasis on PM-Awas Yojana Hike in Lok Sabha

During the Zero Hour in Lok Sabha, NCP-SP member Nilesh Lanke called for increasing the housing scheme PM-Awas Yojana disbursal to Rs 4 lakh. Addressing inadequate current provisions, Lanke emphasized the need for adjustments due to inflation and shrinking incomes in rural areas.

A significant demand was raised in Lok Sabha to enhance the disbursal amount under the PM-Awas Yojana housing scheme from Rs 1.6 lakh to Rs 4 lakh.

NCP-SP member Nilesh Lanke highlighted the inadequacy of the current disbursements during the Zero Hour, arguing that they were insufficient for constructing a house, particularly in regions like Ahmednagar, Maharashtra.

Lanke pointed out the necessity for revisions in the PM-Awas scheme, considering the rising inflation and decreasing rural incomes, and noted the breakdown of the current financial aid offered to beneficiaries.
