The mission of the Rajasthan Urban Housing and Habitat Policy (RUHHP - 06) is:
- To provide shelter to all the sections of the population
- To ensure sustainable development of human settlements
- To ensure a better quality of life for the population
- To adopt a multisectoral approach and involve and use the potential of all levels of stakeholders.
The RUHHP-06 is broadly in consonance with latest National Housing and Habitat Policy-2005 (Ist draft has been issued). The document goes on to highlight the present urban and rural situation in Rajasthan, the increasing population density in the urban areas because of migration of people from rural to urban areas and the housing issues arising because of this increased density of population in urban areas.Read More
The policy thus focuses on balanced development, promotion of in situ-urbanisation, vertical construction and the use of sustainable development models.
