💨 Abstract

The Jharkhand government has initiated the construction of pucca houses for thousands of beneficiaries under the 'Abua Awas Yojana', including Karmela Linda who previously lived in a leaking mud house. The scheme aims to provide houses to the poor and homeless within the next five years, offering more facilities than the Center-sponsored houses. The state government generated applications for the houses during an outreach program, with over 30 lakh applications received.
