Shri Venkaiah Naidu welcomes
convergence of Smart City,AMRUT and Housing Missions
Within two months of the
launch of the Housing for All (Urban) Mission, 15 States have signed Memorandum
of Agreement (MoA) with the Ministry of Housing & Urban Poverty Alleviation
committing themselves to implement six mandatory reforms essential for making a
success of the housing mission in urban areas. 305 cities and towns also have
been identified in nine of these states for beginning construction of houses
for the urban poor.
By signing the MoA, the
States have taken up the responsibility of implementing the six reforms which
include:
1.Doing away with the requirement of
separate Non Agricultural Permission (NAP) in case land falls in the
residential zone earmarked in the Master Plan of city or town;
2.Preparing or amending Master Plans
earmarking land for Affordable Housing;
3.Putting in place a single-window-time
bound clearance system for layout approvals and building permissions;
4.Doing away with approvals below certain
built up area/ plot size in respect of Economically Weaker Sections and Low
Income Groups;
5. Legislating or amending existing rent
laws on the lines of the Model Tenancy Act circulated by the Ministry of HUPA ;
and
6. To provide additional Floor Area Ratio
(FAR)/Floor Space Index/Transferable Development Rights (TDR) and relax density
norms , for slum redevelopment and low cost housing.
States that have agreed to
implement the above reforms include : Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Chattisgarh,
Gujarat, Jammu & Kashmir, Jharkhand, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, Manipur,
Mizoram, Nagaland, Odisha, Rajasthan, Telangana and Uttarakhand.
305 cities and towns in nine
of these states have been identified for building houses for urban poor. These
include –Chattisgarh (36 cities/towns), Gujarat (30), Jammu & Kashmir (19),
Jharkhand (15), Kerala (15), Madhya Pradesh (74), Odisha (42), Rajasthan (40)
and Telangana (34).
Under the Housing for All
initiative of the Central Government, names as ‘Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana and
launched by the Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi on June 25 this year’, 2
crore houses are targeted to be built for the poor in urban areas by the year
2022, coinciding with the 75 year of Independence.
Under this urban housing
mission, central government will provide an assistance in the range of Rs.1.00
lakh to Rs.2.30 lakh per house under different components of the Scheme
including In-situ redevelopment of slums using land as resource, Credit linked
Subsidy Scheme, Affordable Housing in Partnership and Beneficiary led
individual construction/improvement.
With the announcement of
lists under Smart City Mission, AMRUT and Housing for All, there has been a
clear convergence of implementation of the three schemes. The 9 states that
have identified 305 cities for housing for urban poor, also account for 26
smart cities and 136 AMRUT cities. Of these, smart city mission, AMRUT and
Housing Missions will be implemented in 25 smart city aspirants enabling
convergence of schemes and resources of State and Central governments. In 136
AMRUT cities, housing projects will also be undertaken.
In case of Telangana, both
the smart city aspirants of Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporations and
Warangal, AMRUT and Housing missions will be implemented. Similarly, in other
AMRUT cities of Adilabad,Karimnagar, Khammam, Mahaboobabad, Miryalaguda,
Nalgonada, Nizamabad and Suryapet, Housing for All mission will be implemented
resulting in convergence.
Minister of Urban Development
and Housing & Urban Poverty Alleviation Shri M.Venkaiah Naidu has welcomed
this convergence. He said : “This convergence of urban schemes helps in better
utilization of resources resulting in visible improvement in urban areas. I am
glad that state governments are resorting to convergence based approach as
intended by the central government.”
