During its inaugural Cabinet session, the Modi 3.0 government unveiled plans to support the construction of 3 crore rural and urban households through the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY). The initiative, which commenced in 2015-16, has already facilitated the construction of 4.21 crore homes for underprivileged individuals.
The release added that all houses built under PMAY are equipped with essential amenities such as household toilets, LPG connection, electricity connection, functional household tap connection, etc., achieved through collaboration with other schemes from both central and state governments.
Nirmala Sitharaman remains the finance minister in Modi 3.0, with the BJP retaining significant infrastructure ministries like railways, highways, ports, and shipping. The top four ministries, including Rajnath Singh as defence minister, Amit Shah overseeing home affairs, and S Jaishankar as external affairs minister, see no changes. The aviation ministry is now with the NDA ally TDP, while the MSME ministry goes to Hindustani Awan Morcha.
