Vasai's Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Faces Delays, Low Completion Rate

Imagine a special government program called PMAY that helps poor people build their own houses.

In a place called Vasai, the government approved over a thousand houses to be built this year.

They give money, like a gift, to help pay for building the houses.

However, only a small number of these houses are actually finished.

Many people are having trouble finishing their homes because the cost of materials like bricks and cement has gone up a lot.

The money the government gives is not enough anymore, so people have to spend their own savings.

Also, sometimes the money doesn't come on time, which makes building even harder.

People are worried if they will get their houses before the deadline, which is in a couple of years.

They hope the government will give more money to help them finish their dream homes.
