It is everyone's dream to have their own house. However, due to rising inflation and lack of money, this dream of many people is not transformed into reality. There are still many people in India who do not have a roof to live under. For such people, the central government had started the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana. Under this scheme, the poor are given government assistance of Rs 2.5 lakh, so that they can build their own house.

Now the central government has made a big change in this scheme. Till now one had to apply offline for PM Awas Yojana. Now you will be able to apply for it online as well. The central government has launched a mobile app to simplify the application process for PM Awas Yojana so that you can apply under Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana sitting at home.

Which app will be used for the application?

The central government has launched the 'Awas Plus 2024' app for the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana. You can download this app from the Play Store and can also apply for PM Awas. Apart from this, every small and big information about the scheme can be easily obtained through the mobile app. From the list of beneficiaries to all the information about applying is available in this mobile app.

What is the whole process?

After applying through the mobile app, it will be verified by the officials. If you are not eligible, then you will be stopped here. If everything is found correct in the verification, then the process of e-KYC will be started. After its completion, your application will be accepted. You will get this information on your mobile app itself. That is, after the completion of the process, the name of the applicant will be included in the list of beneficiaries of PM Awas Yojana.

The scope of the scheme has increased

Till now only those people could apply under the PM Awas Yojana, whose monthly income is Rs 10 thousand. Apart from this, those people who have fridge, bike and mobile were also not included in the scheme. However, this is not the case now. The government has increased the scope of the scheme. Families whose monthly income is Rs 15000 will be eligible for PM Awas.
