About This Scheme

The "Mukhyamantri Gramin Awas Yojana" was introduced by the Rural Development Department, Bihar, to address the housing needs of beneficiaries belonging to Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, and Extremely Backward Classes whose cluster housing, built under previous schemes before January 1996, has deteriorated. As these families are ineligible for the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana due to prior benefits, this scheme provides financial assistance in three installments directly to the beneficiaries' accounts for reconstructing their homes.
