Abstract
This article critically evaluates the effectiveness of recent state-led housing schemes in rural India, with a special focus on the Pradhan Mantri Awaas Yojana (Gramin) programme in one particular district in Punjab. Based on a close examination of official reports and ethnographic research, the article makes recommendations for future policies and programmes for housing the poor in rural India. Importantly, it identifies significant synergies with other government schemes that seek to support the rural poor.
