Abstract

<jats:p>This paper presents a policy framework for affordable housing, emphasizing increased access and government involvement. It outlines strategies such as optimizing land use through higher Floor Area Ratios, resolving land titling issues, and utilizing government-held lands for housing projects. The paper discusses removing procedural obstacles, supporting subsidies for low-income households, and the need for coordinated urban and transport planning. Evaluating initiatives like Housing for All by 2022 and Rajiv Awas Yojana, the study critiques existing policies for their limited impact on the broader population and calls for fundamental changes. By advocating for a holistic approach, the paper aims to enhance access to affordable housing and promote effective government participation in policy implementation.</jats:p>
