This policy will be an improvised, practical and a better version of the Centre's "Housing for All by 2022". Maharashtra is nearly 50% urbanized and the state's urban needs are different compared to that of the rest of the country. The proposal will be brought before the cabinet soon for approval.

But remember that this policy will have self certification that the beneficiary does not own a house anywhere in the country.

Yes, even i heard that if the declaration provided by the beneficiary is proved false, there is also provision for punishment.

@Shantanu,
Apart from that the amount of contribution by beneficiary to get a house under the scheme would be lower compared to the Centre's policy. Even, those beneficiary would give subsidy on the home loan interest by the government.

Yes, even i read this read in the morning that Maharashtra Govt. will soon bring a "Housing for All" policy aimed for people living in urban areas to serve to the growing need for housing in the state.
