11 women in Uttar Pradesh's Maharajganj district accused of misusing PMAY scheme, taking Rs 40,000 installment and running away with lovers.

11 women in Uttar Pradesh's Maharajganj district have been accused of misusing the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) scheme by taking the first installment amount of Rs 40,000 and running away with their lovers, leaving their husbands behind. These incidents have sparked controversy and led the department to halt the next installment payment for these individuals, after similar incidents occurred last year. The PMAY scheme aims to assist poor and middle-class families in building permanent homes, providing financial assistance and subsidies up to Rs 2.5 lakh based on the family's income.
