The Government of India time and again comes up with schemes/plans to help its citizens. One such Yojna or scheme is that of E-Awas. Everyone understands the importance of owning a home or having a roof over one’s head. We know that employees of the central government have to move from one place to the other to serve the needs of the country. This is why the government in many ways ensures its support to its workers by offering them the E-Awas housing Yojana. E-Awas eligibility criteria differ from state to state, and also on the income of the employee, therefore E-Awas Mumbai follows its own criteria of housing unit selections. GPRA NIC in Mumbai features its own set of rules, to know more – read further.

What is E- Awas?
The Government of India came up with the Yojana – General Pool Residential Accommodation (GRPA) to provide its employee’s affordable homes. Only central government employees are eligible for this scheme. The provisions of how these residential houses will be allotted are laid down in the Allotment of Government Residential Rules, 1963. The Union Housing minister allocated houses through an online portal – E-Sampada. This is available in Delhi and 31 stations outside of Delhi, which includes Chennai, Chandigarh, Kolkata, Mumbai etc.
E-Awas is an electronic tool that the Government uses so as to ensure a fair, secure, and corruption-free method of house allotment to the central government employees. At present, there are more than 65000 housing units. The online portal of E-Awas Mumbai takes care of allotting central government quarters in Mumbai.
