The central government is implementing various schemes aimed at assisting financially disadvantaged individuals. One such initiative is the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana, which provides support for low-income families to construct their homes. Registrations for the PM Awas Yojana have commenced, and an app has been introduced to facilitate easy registration. Let’s explore who is eligible to apply for the PM Awas Yojana and the registration process involved.
About Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana
The Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY-G) is a government initiative in India designed to offer permanent housing solutions to the impoverished and homeless in rural regions.

AwaasPlus New App Launched
Previously, applicants had to submit their applications offline for the PM Awas Yojana. However, with the recent updates, online applications are now possible. The government has launched a new app to simplify this process. You can download AwaasPlus 2024 on your mobile device. This app connects users directly to the Pradhan Mantri Gramin Awas Yojana from the comfort of their homes. Registration on the app is straightforward, requiring an Aadhaar number and face authentication for the survey.
This app offers numerous advantages beyond just registration. Beneficiaries will be authenticated using their Aadhaar number, and they can also monitor the status of their application. Additionally, the app supports multiple languages, not just Hindi.
To apply, start by downloading the AwaasPlus App from the Play Store. Next, enter your Aadhaar number and complete the face authentication process. Once that’s done, the registration form will appear. Make sure to scan and submit the required documents. For your convenience, have all necessary documents ready, including your Aadhaar card, PAN card, voter ID, caste certificate, income certificate, and address proof.
