The Jaipur Development Authority (JDA) is all set to allot 1,396 houses for economic weaker section (EWS), lower income group (LIG) and middle income group (MIG) categories in November.
The houses have been constructed by private developers under Mukhyamantri Awas Yojna and will be allotted on affordable housing rates fixed by the state government.
Maximum numbers of houses have been developed in zone-14. Rest of the houses are in zones 7, 9, 10, 11 and 12, an official said.
“In the financial year 2017-2018, JDA’s target was to construct 20,000 houses for EWS and LIG sections. The civic body, so far, has issued lease deeds to 12,790 house owners falling under these categories,” a JDA official said.
In two-and-a-half years, JDA has issued 35,300 lease deeds. Out of them, 11,000 EWS and LIG houses were developed in JDA schemes. While the remaining houses were earmarked in private colonies.
