Rahul Gandhi to Inaugurate Rural Housing Scheme in Chhattisgarh:
In preparation for the upcoming Chhattisgarh assembly elections later this year, Rahul Gandhi, a Congress leader, is set to launch the Mukhyamantri Gramin Awas Nyay Yojna (MGANY) in Bilaspur district.
The objective of this scheme is to offer financial support to individuals and families living in makeshift or poorly constructed houses in rural areas.
At the ‘Awas Nyay Sammelan’ gathering, Rahul Gandhi and Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel will disburse the initial installment of Rs 25,000 to each of the 1,30,000 beneficiaries to aid in the construction of their homes.
The event is scheduled to take place at around 2 p.m. in Parsada (Sakri) village under the Takhatpur development block in Bilaspur district. Among the beneficiaries, 1 lakh individuals are listed on the permanent wait list (PWL) under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojna (PMAY- rural) but have yet to receive the benefits of the Central scheme.
During this event, an amount of Rs 5 crore will be allocated to the bank accounts of 500 beneficiaries as part of the Mukhyamantri Nirman Shramik Awas Sahayata Yojana (MNSASY), which was initiated earlier this year in May. Under MNSASY, registered construction workers with the Chhattisgarh Building and Other Construction Workers Welfare Board receive Rs 1 lakh in assistance for house construction.
Furthermore, Rahul Gandhi and Bhupesh Baghel will officially launch and lay the cornerstone for various development and construction initiatives totaling Rs 524.33 crore in the Bilaspur district. Additionally, they will distribute appointment letters to 2,594 recently hired teachers.
The MGANY scheme aims to provide financial aid to homeless families that were excluded from the survey list of the Socio-Economic Caste Census 2011 (SECC-2011). A socio-economic survey conducted in 2023, under the direction of the Chief Minister, identified 10,76,545 families as homeless or residing in kutcha houses.

Consequently, Baghel announced the launch of a rural housing scheme in July, which will provide Rs 1.30 lakh in assistance to each beneficiary in remote areas and Rs 1.20 lakh in plain areas for house construction. The scheme also aims to benefit 6,99,439 eligible beneficiaries under Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojna (PMAY- rural) who are on the permanent waitlist and have not yet received PMAY benefits due to the Central government’s non-allocation of targets.
