Who Can Apply for the Free Plot Scheme?
The Chief Minister Rural Housing Scheme is open only to the residents of Haryana. To qualify, applicants must belong to the economically weaker sections (EWS), live in kutcha houses, or come from socially backward classes. Additionally, the applicant should not have received a plot under any other government scheme.
Here are the key eligibility criteria for the scheme:
- Only BPL (Below Poverty Line) families from both rural and urban areas of Haryana can apply.
- The applicant’s annual income should not exceed Rs 1.80 lakhs.
- The applicant must have a family identity card and their mobile number must be linked to their PPP (Parivar Pehchan Patra).
Expansion of Chief Minister Rural Housing Scheme
The Haryana government has expanded the scope of the Chief Minister Rural Housing Scheme for the period 2024-2027. This extension aims to provide residential plots to more eligible BPL families, with an estimated budget of Rs 2,950.86 crore.
Under the Mukhyamantri Gramin Awas Yojana Extension (MMGAY-E), the government is offering two plot sizes:
- 50 square yard plots in Mahagram Panchayats.
- 100 square yard plots in General Panchayats.
Financial Assistance for House Construction
Once beneficiaries are allocated a plot, they can also secure a loan of up to Rs 6 lakh from the bank to build their house. This feature ensures that those who receive a plot can easily manage the financial burden of constructing a home.

To apply for this scheme, certain documents and requirements are essential:
- Family Identity Card: A family ID card is mandatory for registration.
