PM Uday Mitra will go door to door to get the ownership rights of the property

The Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has appointed PM Uday Mitra to provide ownership rights to the property to the residents of 1731 unauthorised colonies of Delhi under Pradhan Mantri Yday Yojana.

These PM Uday Mitra will go door-to-door and assist in the entire process from submission of application form to receipt of conveyance deed.

• About 40 lakh people live in these unauthorised colonies of Delhi. With this scheme, not only those colonies will be able to develop in a better way, but the residents living here will also be able to get a loan from the bank after getting the ownership of their property.
• It is worth mentioning in this context that this scheme is about to be completed in four years, while even 20 thousand people have not been able to get the ownership rights of the property.
• The applicants under this scheme believe that the process of getting the ownership rights is very complicated. Due to which most of the applications get rejected.
• But now the persons designated as PM Mitra will go door-to-door and make people aware as well as help them in getting the ownership rights.
