Overview & About

State housing scheme for homeless and kutcha house families in Jharkhand providing 3-room pucca houses.

Abua Awas Yojana (Abua means 'our' in tribal languages of Jharkhand) provides 3-room pucca houses to all homeless families and those living in kutcha/dilapidated houses in Jharkhand.
