Budget 2024: New housing scheme to be introduced for middle class
Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on Thursday presented the 5th and last budget of the Modi government 2.0. One of the key takeaways of Budget 2024 is the consistency in the extension of housing scheme benefits for the rural population and the middle class. “Two crore more houses will be taken up in the next 5 years to meet the requirement arising from an increase in the number of families,” she said. On housing for the middle class, the FM said, “Our government will launch a scheme to help deserving section from the middle class living in rented houses or slums or chawls and unauthorised colonies to buy or build their own houses.” Additionally, the FM said that through rooftop solarisation, one crore households will be enabled to obtain upto 300 units of free electricity every month. “This scheme follows the resolve of honourable Prime Minister on the historic day of consecration of Shri Ram Mandir in Ayodhya,” Sitharaman said.
