Assam: PMAY transforms lives in Dibrugarh, beneficiaries thank govt​

Dibrugarh beneficiaries share stories of moving from kuccha to pucca houses under PMAY, thanking PM Modi and CM Himanta Biswa Sarma for dignified living.

"Since PM Modi has provided us with a home, we are living comfortably with our family. - PMAY beneficiary"

Dibrugarh, April 2

The Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana, a flagship scheme of the Modi government to meet the housing needs of lakhs of underprivileged citizens, is bringing positive changes in the lives of many families in rural and urban areas.​

The scheme has achieved remarkable results in Assam's Dibrugarh district, with many beneficiaries receiving houses and now living a dignified, respectable life.​

A couple of beneficiaries like Bhola Das, Dino Mandal, and Shyamal Das shared their stories of transformation under the Central scheme, narrating their upward journey from makeshift (kuccha) residences to pucca houses.​

One of the beneficiaries recounted that they previously lived in temporary (kutcha) houses and faced significant hardships, particularly during the rainy season.​

Sharing the daily travails, he narrated, "Water would leak into their homes, making it difficult to sleep through the night. The children, too, faced considerable difficulties."​

All of them expressed gratitude to PM Modi and CM Himanta Biswa Sarma for the financial assistance received under PMAY, which enabled them to construct permanent homes.

Today, having benefited from this scheme, they are living a safe and comfortable life with their families.​

Another beneficiary, thanking the government, stated that this scheme has given them the opportunity to live with dignity. They built their own home and have now been living in improved conditions for the past two years.​

He noted that, while there were significant difficulties with accommodation in the past, the acquisition of a permanent house has now ensured that all their basic needs are met. ​

He also extended gratitude to the Assam CM, under whose leadership the scheme is being effectively implemented across the state.​

Another beneficiary, looking joyous, remarked, "We have witnessed with our own eyes how the dream of moving from a temporary house to a permanent one becomes a reality."​

Recalling the hardships of staying in kuccha houses, he stated, "Since PM Modi has provided us with a home, we are living comfortably with our family."

Wonderful to read! My own chacha in a village in UP got a house under PMAY. The difference it has made to their lives, especially for my bua and the kids, is immeasurable. No more worrying about the monsoon rains. More power to such schemes.

Good work, but the article only shows one side. What about the delays and corruption in some areas? In my district, many eligible people are still waiting for years after applying. The scheme is great, but implementation needs to be uniform and transparent across all states.

As someone who has worked with housing NGOs, the psychological impact of moving from a kuccha to a pucca house is profound. Children can study properly, families have privacy, and health improves. This is foundational development.

Assam has seen a lot of positive changes in infrastructure lately. CM Sarma seems to be pushing hard on development projects. If the benefits are reaching the people on the ground like this, it's a very good sign for the entire North-East.

"Living with dignity" – that phrase says it all. It's not just about bricks and cement. It's about self-respect. Hope every family in need gets this basic right fulfilled soon. 🙏
