INTRODUCTION Housing is one of the basic requirements for the survival of human beings. Ownership of a house provides significant economic security and social status for a citizen in the society. The identity and social recognition associated with ownership of a house provides an individual with immense confidence to get involved into many social activities. Stable, affordable and accessible housing is directly and indirectly linked to human wellbeing. One can easily understand the socio-economic status of a family just by watching physical attributes of their housing. Good housing and its surroundings indicate the standard of living of the family, it provides facilities for education, recreation and many other facets of life. A person deprived of this basic need faces all odds of life and remains discriminated and marginalized in the society. Housing contributes significantly towards the configuration of cultured human existence. Around one third of the human populations in urban as well as rural areas in the country are deprived of adequate housing facilities. Out of the estimated 200 million families in India, approximately 65 to 70 million families do not have adequate 177 P a g e

2 housing facilities. They are not able to procure a house for want of financial resources. The situation of the Scheduled Tribes, Scheduled Castes and the other socially and economically backward class families is worst affected by poor housing conditions. Hence, fulfilling the need for rural housing and tackling housing shortage particularly for the poorest is an important task to be undertaken as part of the poverty alleviation efforts of the government. The Indira Awaas Yojana (renamed as Pradhan Manrti Grameen Awas Yojana on 20 th November 2016) centrally sponsored scheme of Ministry of Rural Employment, Government of India is one of the most important poverty alleviation programme in the country which play a vital role in the upliftment of the living standard of poor people in rural areas. This scheme is being implemented in all the districts of the state through Rural Development Department, Karnataka on 75:25 cost sharing basis between Centre ands State respectively since from January The main objective of the scheme is to provide a finance aid to the members of scheduled castes/ scheduled tribes freed, bonded labourers and also to other non scheduled castes/ scheduled tribes rural poor below the poverty line for the construction of their dwelling units by providing a lump sum amount as financial assistance. Shelter is a basic need for all human being. A roof over the head endows a shelter less person, with an essential asset and improves his physical and mental well being. Hence, fulfilling the need for rural housing and tackling housing shortage particularly for the poorest is an important task to be undertaken as part of the poverty alleviation efforts of the government. The Indira Awaas Yojana (IAY) is a flag ship scheme of the Ministry of Rural Development to provide houses to below the poverty line (BPL) families in the rural areas. It has been in operation since in During the financial year , Rs crore were allocated against which Rs crore were released to the States/UT s for construction of lakh houses under IAY. During , the state will get 87,816 houses under the Indira Awaas Yojana.(IAY) the centrally sponsored scheme, the Karnataka state spent over Rs crore. II. BACKGROUND OF INDIRA AWAAS YOJANA The genesis of the Indira Awaas Yojana can be traced back to the programmes of rural employment which began in the early 1980s; construction of houses was one of the major activities under the national rural employment programme (NREP) which began in There was however, no uniform policy for rural housing in the states. For instance, some states permitted only part of the construction cost to be borne from NREP/RLEGP funds and the balance was to be met by beneficiaries from their savings or loans obtained by them. On the other hand, others permitted the entire expenditure to be borne from NREP/RLEGP funds. Further, while some states allowed construction of only new dwellings, others permitted renovation of existing houses of beneficiaries, as per announcement made by the Government of India in June Apart of the RLEGP was earmarked from the construction of houses for SCs/STs and freed bonded labourers. As a result, Indira Awaas Yojana was launched during as a sub-scheme of RLEGP. Indira Awaas Yojana (IAY) therefore, continued as a sub-scheme of Jawahar Rozgar Yojana (JRY). Since its launching in April 1989, 62 percent of the total JRY funds were allocated for implementation of IAY from the year The scope of IAY was extended to cover below the poverty line non scheduled castes/schemed tribes families in the rural areas simultaneously; the allocation of funds for implementing the scheme was raised from 6 percent to 10 percent of 178 P a g e

3 the total resources available under JRY at the national level, subject to the condition that, the benefits to non- Scheduled Castes/Scheduled Tribe poors should not exceed 4 percent of the total JRY allocations. IAY was delinked from JRY and made an independent scheme with effect from 1 st January III. FUNDING IAY Funding for IAY is shared between the central and state governments in a ratio of 75:25. However, in the case of North Eastern States and Sikkim it is in the ratio of 90:10.A minimum of 60% of total IAY allocation should be utilized for construction or up-gradation of dwellings of SC/ST households. 40% for Non-scheduled castes/scheduled tribes below poverty line rural households. 3% of funds are reserved for the disable persons living in below the poverty line in rural areas. The scheme has been allocated approximately Rs.35,450 crore as of allocations from the Seventh to the Eleventh Plan periods, a total of 27 years. Increasingly larger amounts have been committed to IAY over the years, especially since the Eighth Plan period ( ). From an allocation of Rs. 759 crore in the Seventh Plan ( ), the outlay jumped nearly 400 percent to Rs. 3,773 crore in the Eighth Plan. With the National Housing and Habitat Policy in 1998, which had the goal of providing shelter for all, the allocation for IAY increased nearly three-fold to Rs. 9,734 crore in the Ninth Plan period, and to Rs. 15,495 crore in the Tenth Plan period ( ). The planning commission has allocated raise Rs crore for the rural housing in 12 th Five Year Plan period. Since , a number of initiatives have been taken to improve the Rural Housing (RH) Programmes by making provision for up gradation of unserviceable katcha houses and by providing them credit with subsidy for certain sections of the poor communities. Emphasis has also been laid on the use of cost effective, disaster resistant and friendly environment technologies in rural housing. Objectives of the Study The main objectives of the study are- 1.
