The State Government has prescribed process to select beneficiaries under Jawaharlal Nehru Urban Renewal Mission, Integrated Housing and Slum Development Programme, Rajiv Aawas Mission and Central Government’s new scheme ‘Housing for All-2002’. New orders have been issued replacing the old ones for selection of beneficiaries.
Commissioners of municipal corporations and Chief Municipal Officers of Nagar Palikas and Nagar Parishads have been asked to initiate process of survey, selection and identification of beneficiaries, allotment of houses etc. Directives have been given for complete survey and demarcation of boundaries of slums for selection of beneficiaries. Inter-departmental team will be formed for the survey.
It is has been directed to appoint officers and employees of prominent urban bodies as heads of the survey team. These teams, comprising slum residents, will conduct survey. Preliminary lists will be chalked out by giving a number to every house and resident.
Zonal officers will publish the lists and invite claims and objections within 15 days, which will be disposed of in next seven days.
Committee or an officer appointed for the purpose will chalk out final lists to be ratified by mayor-in-Council/president-in-Council. District collectors will finally approve the lists following verification. The lists will be published in slums, urban body offices and website.
Before determining eligibility of beneficiaries, a slum’s survey under Housing for All Scheme will be undertaken. A beneficiary must be residing in the slum at the time of survey. For proof of residence, documents like attested copies of patta, ration card, voter ID card, driving licence, Aadhar Card, electricity bill, bank passbook, urban body tax certificates, electoral roll, labourer’s identity card, name in BPl list, domestic women help’s ID card and ID card for handcart pullers along with affidavit will be acceptable.
Every family will have eligibility as separate beneficiary. If more than one married couple is residing in a shanty, each family will also be eligible as a beneficiary. Every beneficiary must be a domicile of Madhya Pradesh. He or she must not have a residential plot or house in any urban area. Families registered in the list of urban poor and low income group will be eligible under the scheme.
On being found running shops at the time of survey, they will be enlisted for hawkers’ corner/ petty shopping. The residents unwilling to be included in the scheme will be considered for shifting elsewhere. If a beneficiary does not reside in the locality after completion of the scheme, his or her name will be removed from the list and eligibility cancelled. In case of death of a beneficiary, next of his kin will be eligible for the house.
Temporary allotment orders will be issued through lottery to beneficiaries. Allotment orders will be issued to the beneficiaries who deposit amount of their share to concerning urban body within prescribed time-limit and lease deed registered in their names.
Under the lottery process, ground floor houses will be reserved for families headed by a disabled person/person over 60 years of age. Residents’ committee will be formed after taking possession.
