Basava Vasti Yojana: Objectives

The Basava Vasti Yojana is popularly known as the RGRHCL (Rajiv Gandhi Rural Housing Corporation Limited) scheme. This scheme has noble objectives and aims of helping homeless people. Under the RGRHCL scheme, houses are provided at affordable cost to people, especially those who cannot afford to purchase a house owing to their financial situation. The Government of Karnataka had created the Rajiv Gandhi Rural Housing Corporation Limited (RGRHCL) with the aim of carrying out housing construction across the state.

Launched in 2021, this was exclusively engineered to provide homes to the homeless but the scope of the scheme has considerably widened, to provide shelter that can have life-altering impact on people. During the Budget 2020-21, Chief Minister of Karnataka, B. S. Yediyurappa, allocated a budget of Rs 2500 crores for the development of 2 lakh homes in the state.

The specifics of the Basavavasati are to cater to homeless people throughout the state, irrespective of where they come from, urban or rural. This scheme was initiated by the state government of Karnataka and is being actively implemented and executed with the aid of the Department of Housing, Karnataka. The aim is to provide shelter to the beneficiaries in Karnataka. The applicants of the RGRHCL scheme need to go through the details of the procedure and the application process, to ensure their optimal chance of being included in the programme.

Basava Vasathi Yojana is the Karnataka government’s programme, aimed at providing affordable houses to economically weaker section people. Through the basava yojana scheme, the underprivileged people, who are not able to afford a house due to their financial conditions, can construct their own dwellings if they own land. The government provides construction material to construct a pucca house. The entire basava housing scheme intends to improve the living standard of people.

Basava Housing Scheme: Latest update

Update on July 16, 2021

Recently, the Karnataka government announced the construction of nine lakh houses over the next two years, out of which five lakh units will be constructed under state housing schemes including the Basava Vasati Scheme. In addition to this, around Rs 6,200 crores will be released for these state housing projects. These funds will be released in a phase-by-phase manner. This would further brighten the prospects for those beneficiaries who are still awaiting their subsidy from the government offices.

Update on June 21, 2021

It seems the affordable housing programme in Karnataka is a long way from completion. The major reason for this, is the lack of proper land documentation by the state government. While the land has been identified, the land documents such as title and title deed are not available for several instances. Also, the process is being delayed by slow application submission. According to government data, of the 1.6 lakh applicants, only 15,758 applications have been submitted to the banks for housing loans, due to lack of documentation.

****

The Karnataka state government is planning to construct around 1.69 lakh houses under various housing schemes including the Basava Housing Scheme 2021. Around 69,000 houses will be constructed in Mysuru, Chikkamagalur and Raichur districts while another 1.2 lakh homes will be constructed across the state by the Rajiv Gandhi Housing Corporation at the expense of Rs 10,000 crores.

Issues with Basava Vasati Yojana

Though the Basava Vasati Yojana was established to provide permanent shelters to the poor, there were several issues that cropped up after its implementation. Even after the beneficiaries of the Basava Vasati Yojana had built their houses, many of them failed to get their instalments in the first month. There were no officers to inspect and oversee the process of implementation of the housing or resolve the issues of the beneficiaries. One of the primary issues was the locking of houses under this scheme. The locking system locked the houses if the beneficiaries did not begin constructing their houses after six months from the date of their allocation. 

Budget allocation for Basava Vasati Yojana

The Karnataka government decided in 2020 to construct at least 20 houses in each panchayat limit. The state government will construct 1.69 lakh houses in Panchayat limits under the Ambedkar and Basava Vasati schemes. The government has allocated Rs 200 crore for developing 64 lakh sites. The land for the same has been identified for the purpose. The state government has decided to build 69,000 houses in Raichur, Mysuru and Chikkamagalur. Rajiv Gandhi Housing Corporation has now approved building 1.2 lakh houses at Rs 10,100 crore.
