With this additional step, the state aims to make Maharashtra the first state free of homeless people, said Maharashtra deputy chief minister Devendra Fadnavis.
“Under the PMAY, a target of completing 10.5 lakh homes was set for Maharashtra, which used to be the first to complete projects. However, later it lost its ranking with respect to project completion, owing to reasons like encroachment and non-availability of plots. The Maharashtra government has framed a new policy that regularizes encroachments and makes land available,” he said.
