A Major Boost for Tribal Communities in Bihar

If you belong to a tribal community in Bihar and live in a temporary or kutcha house, there’s good news for you. From 2025, the PM Jan Man Yojana will be implemented in Bihar. Under this scheme, financially weaker tribal families will receive ₹2 lakh to construct a permanent house.

The government’s aim is to provide housing security, improve living conditions, and support the socio-economic development of tribal communities in the state.

Objectives of the Scheme

The primary goals of PM Jan Man Yojana 2025 are:

  • Provide permanent housing to tribal families living in kutcha houses

Key Benefits of PM Jan Man Yojana 2025

  • Coverage for All Recognized Tribal Families: The scheme applies to all officially recognized tribal families in Bihar.
  • Financial Assistance of ₹2 Lakh: Each beneficiary family will receive ₹2,00,000 to build a permanent house.
