Housing Problems in Rural Uttar Pradesh

Social Sciences

Uttar Pradesh with more than three-quarters of its population living in rural areas must trigger the question of housing condition in the villages. While the Government has over the years focussed immensely on availability of housing for all in both rural and urban areas, what still remains largely conspicuously missing is the decent standard of basic housing amenities like water, electricity and sanitation. The problem becomes even more grave in case of a state as diverse and vast as Uttar Pradesh and therefore it becomes all the more important to solve these problems. The importance of these basic housing amenities lies in the fact that they form the key towards a holistic, all-round development of the state.
