Updated: May 17, 2025 | GLOBALFAMILY
The Prime Minister Awas Yojana-Gramin (PMAY-G) survey in Muzaffarpur has officially concluded, with a remarkable addition of over 4.20 lakh new beneficiaries to the list. This marks a significant step in the rural housing initiative aimed at providing pucca houses to the economically weaker sections in India.
Key Highlights
-
Survey Concludes Across All Blocks
The survey, which began earlier this year, concluded on Thursday, May 15, after two deadline extensions. Data from all blocks is being compiled and forwarded to the District Rural Development Agency (DRDA). -
Next Step: Verification and Report Submission
Starting Friday, 2% of the total entries will undergo verification at the DDC (Deputy Development Commissioner) level. After this, a comprehensive report will be sent to the Rural Development Department in Patna. -
Housing Targets to Be Set Soon
Once approved, the department will set district-wise targets, and housing construction is expected to be completed within three months for selected beneficiaries.
Survey Scope and Beneficiary Statistics
According to official reports, around 4.20 lakh beneficiaries have been added across all blocks in Muzaffarpur. However, only those who fall under the target quota set by the department will receive housing in the first phase. Others will remain on the waiting list for the next round of allotments.
Notable Trends:
-
Paroo Block recorded the highest number of entries, with over 40,000 beneficiaries surveyed.
-
Other blocks, including Kurhani, also saw significant numbers.
Self-Survey Option Gained Popularity
For the first time, a self-survey option was made available to potential beneficiaries through the Awas Plus mobile app. This tech-enabled option allowed users to submit their details directly. Approximately 50,000 people opted for this digital method to register themselves under the scheme.
