In line with the larger goal of providing ‘housing for all’ the Andhra Pradesh state government undertook the task of setting up Jagananna colonies across the state. Under the YSR Jagananna housing scheme, the government plans to construct nearly 18000 colonies to provide housing for 30.3 lakh beneficiaries from low-income groups. The plots have been returned by women beneficiaries for a plethora of reasons.
In a major initiative to pump in energy into the then sluggish economy, the Andhrapradesh state government kickstarted the construction of houses for the poor under the YSR Jagananna scheme in June of 2021. At a cost of almost Rs 50000 crore, the project was to progress in a phased manner with a target of 15.8 lakh houses set to be constructed in 8798 colonies across 13 states in the first phase by the end of 2022. The aim of the project is to ensure that all the poor in the state have housing by the end of 2023. In addition to extending support to the beneficiaries in completing the housing units, the state government is also making arrangements for the construction of dedicated roads, sanitary drains, ample drinking water, electricity, parks and open auditoriums in all the colonies. The idea is to not only create housing colonies but equip them in such a manner that they may be considered as villages in and of themselves. The state government has expedited the construction of houses and has so far incurred an expenditure of Rs 6,345 crore on construction of houses, excluding the TIDCOS expenditure under the PMAY scheme.
The project however has seen its fair share of hurdles since its inception. One such instance was when some plots allotted for the construction of houses for the poor under the scheme, were being sold off by intermediaries. However, this matter has since been resolved. Recently, nearly 50000 women beneficiaries in the state returned their house plots to their respective district administration and have asked for better sites than what was allotted to them. Those who returned the plots said that they plot which had been allotted to them were either located too close to burial grounds or were too far from their present habitations. The Chief Minister of the state, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has directed officials to provide alternate sites to the affected beneficiaries. This task has been entrusted with the respective district collectors. The emphasis on 100% satisfaction among the beneficiaries is a driving force behind the swift resolution of such matters and the project is set to reach fruition by the ned of 2023.
