Looking to own a home in Pune? Well, you’re in luck! The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) has some exciting news for you. They are gearing up to construct a whopping 4,173 affordable houses in six different locations across the city. These locations include Dhanori, Hadapsar, Baner, Kondhwa, Balewadi, and Vadgaon Khurd.
The best part? Registration for this housing scheme has already kicked off, giving economically weaker sections (EWS) a chance to finally own a home at a price they can afford. In the first phase of the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY), PMC successfully built and distributed 2,918 houses in areas like Vadgaon Budruk, Kharadi, and Hadapsar. These homes were allocated through a transparent lottery system, making the dream of owning a home a reality for many Puneites.
The success of the first phase led Prime Minister Narendra Modi to launch ‘Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana 2.0’ in September 2024. However, due to delays caused by the model code of conduct during the recent Maharashtra assembly elections, the registration process in Pune was put on hold. But now that the elections are over, PMC is back in action, inviting citizens to apply online for the affordable housing scheme.
City Engineer Prashant Waghmare is optimistic about the second phase of PMAY. He mentioned that since these houses are being built on PMC-owned land, there is no additional land cost, making them even more affordable for citizens. With an estimated investment of ₹300 crore, the construction of these houses is expected to make a significant impact and help fulfill the housing dreams of many in need.
So, if you’re interested in owning a home in Pune, head over to the official PMC website for more details and to register for this fantastic opportunity. Don’t miss out on your chance to finally have a place to call your own in the bustling city of Pune!
