Several proposals regarding to the amendments in the affordable housing policy has been proposed by urban development and housing (UDH) department for motivating the developers to come forward for constructing affordable housing for EWS and LIG on both private and government land. And to achieve the target of constructing 10 lakh houses till 2018 under Housing For All mission, the state government will now focus on providing free land for affordable housing projects on public-private partnership (PPP) mode.

“We have proposed to give priority to this model due to cold response from developers to construct EWS/LIG houses on private land. Though the final decision will be taken only after receiving approval from the cabinet,” a UDH official said.
