The Bihar government has cleared plans for more than 1.1 million residential units, marking a large‑scale push to expand affordable housing in the state.
The state administration of Bihar announced the approval of over 1.1 million new housing units, a move described as a "housing revolution" aimed at tackling the chronic shortage of affordable homes.
Officials said the approval will be implemented through existing state housing schemes, with construction slated to begin across multiple districts. The scale of the project is expected to benefit millions of low‑ and middle‑income families seeking secure shelter.
The government has indicated that the rollout will be coordinated with local bodies and private partners to ensure timely delivery, though detailed timelines and funding allocations have not been disclosed.
