The Rajasthan Housing Board (RHB) has launched five new affordable housing schemes across Bundi, Baran, Barmer, Dholpur, and Udaipur, adding 667 residential units to its pipeline. The announcement was made by Urban Development and Housing Minister Jhabar Singh Kharra, reinforcing the state government’s focus on affordable housing for lower- and middle-income families.

These units are priced between ₹7.60 lakh and ₹12.45 lakh, depending on the city and category, making them accessible to a wider section of society. Applications for these schemes are open through the RHB’s official portal, with the allotments set to be finalized through a transparent lottery system. The deadline for submission ensures that only genuine applicants participate, reducing scope for delays or disputes.

The RHB emphasized that timely construction and transparent implementation are top priorities. The new schemes are expected to provide relief to first-time homebuyers and families living in rental housing. They also support Rajasthan’s broader housing policy, which aims to reduce shortages and provide affordable options in both urban and semi-urban areas.

By focusing on inclusivity and affordability, the projects will not only improve living conditions for beneficiaries but also stimulate local construction activity, creating employment opportunities. Analysts note that such housing drives can play a crucial role in urban development by addressing both social needs and economic growth. These projects highlight the government’s commitment to ensuring access to housing as a fundamental component of development.
