Majhe Ghar Yojana is a housing regularization scheme launched by Goa government to give legal ownership rights to thousands of families living in houses built on government or community land. The scheme protects old Goan homes from demolition and helps residents get ownership at fair rates based on the year of construction.
Latest update (2026): The scheme is still accepting applications across Goa. Forms are available from Deputy Collector, Mamlatdar and district offices, and the revenue department has released fresh notifications and application forms during 2026. Around 50,000 people had already taken forms in the early phase and the number keeps growing as more talukas come under coverage.
This scheme gives legal cover to old houses and regularizes up to 400 sqm on government or community land at simple, fixed rates based on year of construction. For now, application is offline only. Forms are collected and submitted at the issuing office, and the goaonline.gov.in portal carries the scheme details and download documents.
