The Odisha government\u2019s Pucca Ghar Yojana (Mining) is aimed at providing permanent homes to eligible households living in kutcha houses in areas affected by mining activities. The scheme seeks to convert all eligible kutcha houses in the identified mining-affected blocks into pucca homes.The scheme covers 36 blocks across nine mineral-bearing districts – Angul, Dhenkanal, Jajpur, Jharsuguda, Keonjhar, Koraput, Mayurbhanj, Rayagada and Sundargarh.The government plans to cover eligible kutcha households in these areas on a saturation basis, meaning the objective is to cover all households that meet the scheme’s eligibility conditions.<\/p>\n

The scheme is meant for households living in kutcha houses in the identified mining-affected blocks. However, a household will not qualify if it has already been sanctioned a house under an earlier rural housing scheme or if it already lives in a pucca house.For the scheme, a kutcha house is one whose walls or roof are made from non-durable materials such as unburnt bricks, bamboo, mud, grass, reeds, thatch or loosely packed stones.A pucca house, on the other hand, must have a foundation, walls and roof made from permanent materials and should be capable of withstanding normal wear and tear and climatic conditions. The expected life of the structure should be at least 30 years.<\/p>\n
