The scheme was launched in 2015 by the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi. The scheme is implemented by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs.<\/p>\n<p>The objective of PMAY-U is to provide affordable housing to all urban poor by 2022. The scheme provides financial assistance to eligible beneficiaries to construct or purchase a house. The assistance is provided in the form of a subsidy. The subsidy amount is determined on the basis of the size of the house and the income of the beneficiary.<\/p>\n<p>The scheme is open to all urban poor who are not covered under any other housing scheme. The beneficiaries are selected through a transparent process. The scheme is being implemented in all states and union territories of India.<\/p>\n<p>The scheme has been successful in providing housing to a large number of urban poor. As of March 2022, the scheme has sanctioned loans to over 1 crore beneficiaries and disbursed over Rs. 1 lakh crore. The scheme has also helped in creating employment opportunities in the construction sector.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because they are not schemes aimed at providing housing to the urban poor in Mizoram.<\/p>\n<p>a) Pradhan Mantri Gramin Awaas Yojana (PMAY-G) is a scheme aimed at providing housing to the <div class=\"telegram-channel-container\">\r\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/pscnotes2025\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"telegram-channel-button\">\r\n            <span class=\"telegram-icon\">\r\n                <svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 496 512\">\r\n                    <path fill=\"white\" d=\"M248,8C111,8,0,119,0,256s111,248,248,248s248-111,248-248S385,8,248,8z M362,177L320,367c-3,14-10,18-20,14l-56-41l-27,26 c-3,3-5,5-10,5l4-63L323,196c5-5-1-7-8-3l-98,62l-42-13c-9-3-10-9,2-14l162-63C351,160,365,164,362,177z\"\/>\r\n                <\/svg>\r\n            <\/span>\r\n            Join Our Telegram Channel\r\n        <\/a>\r\n    <\/div> rural poor in India.<\/p>\n<p>c) Rajiv Awas Yojana (RAY) was a scheme aimed at providing housing to the urban poor in India.
