The economically disadvantaged, urban migrants, and working poor are the target demographic for the program, which aims to provide affordable rental housing for them.

The J&K government has taken a significant step towards its goal of providing reasonably priced housing to migrant workers with the handing over of these flats. The apartments will help to improve the quality of life for migrant workers while also providing a much-needed boost to the economy of the region.
