Mukhyamantri Grihsthal Kray Sahayata Yojana 2026 - Rs. 1 Lakh to Buy Land for House in Bihar

Bihar government's Mukhyamantri Grihsthal Kray Sahayata Yojana 2026 is accepting applications from landless families who want to buy their own land to build a house. The scheme, earlier known as Mukhyamantri Vaas Sthal Kray Sahayata Yojana, was renamed and relaunched with a higher support amount. Under this scheme, landless SC, ST, and OBC families of rural Bihar get a one-time support of Rs. 1,00,000 to purchase at least 3 dismis (about 48 gaj) of land for building their own house.

The scheme is run by the Rural Development Department of Bihar. It was launched by Former Chief Minister Nitish Kumar in 2018, and the official notification for the current version was issued on 20 November 2024. The support amount was raised from Rs. 60,000 to Rs. 1,00,000 so that more landless families can get their own land and become eligible for house construction under Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Gramin.

Mukhyamantri Grihsthal Kray Sahayata Yojana Details

Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Gramin (PMAY-G) gives financial support of Rs. 1,20,000 to rural families for building a new house. But many families from the SC, ST, and OBC categories do not have their own land, so they cannot get the benefit of PMAY-G. The government has a list of such landless families from the Socio-Economic Caste Census (SECC) 2011 data. Under this scheme, these families get money to buy land, and after that they can apply for PMAY-G support to build their house.

This scheme also gives priority to families displaced under the Jal-Jeevan-Hariyali Abhiyan. Families who are landless and have not received land from any other government scheme can apply for this support. The purchased land is registered in the name of a woman member of the family, or a male member if there is no woman in the family.
