Critical Issues & Challenges
Improper selection of land parcels for AH projects: High prices and lack of availability of
land within city limits is discouraging developer driven projects. Also, lack of
employment opportunities in the vicinity discourages people from staying in these
units.
Lengthy statutory clearance &
approval processes: It takes over
2 years to obtain all the 20-30
required approvals through
multiple authorities which
increase the gestation period
and project cost.
Shortcomings in development
norms, planning* & project
design: such as Incongruence
between the affordable housing
policies of Central and State
governments creating hurdles in
availing the benefits, insufficient
action in providing social and
external connectivity infrastructure by the concerned authority etc.
Challenges in Beneficiary selection: Lack of a beneficiary database to facilitate AH developers to identify their target customers.
Capacity constraints such as Inadequate capacity of implementing agencies and lack of mainstreaming
of low cost technologies to achieve economies of scale.
Lack of participation of large organised real estate players due to low profit margins and high
sensitivities to changes in input cost, project delays etc.
High cost of construction finance due to lack of suitable credit enhancing financial products for
developers as well as lack of a suitable mechanism or funds for maintenance.

AFFORDABLE HOUSING IN INDIA
According to the GoI, Affordable housing (AH) refers to any housing that meets some form of affordability criterion, which could be income level of the family, size of the dwelling unit or affordability in terms of EMI size or ratio of house price to annual income.
Significance
The cities of India are under immense pressure and struggling to accommodate the ever-growing
migrant population.
Exponential urbanization and increase in slum settlements, lack of basic services, limited access to
quality healthcare and education are leading to decrease in the quality of life of the migrants.
The Ministry of Housing estimated a housing
shortage of 18.78 mn houses during the 12th plan period, with 99% in the economically weaker section (EWS) and lower income
groups (LIG).
The country’s total urban housing shortage is projected to be about 30 mn by 2022. This
ever increasing gap between demand and supply in the affordable housing is forcing
people to live in slums and informal
settlements.
A thrust on Affordable Housing will not only lead to better quality of life, but also significantly provide a boost to the GDP of the
country.

Challenges in E-agriculture
Lack of awareness and literacy among farmers about the use and benefits of e-agriculture.
Lack of digital infrastructure which includes lack of accessibility and affordability to internet,
mobile phones, and other ICT devices.
Digital Divide also poses a challenge in adoption of e-agriculture.
Even where farmers have access to mobile phones, they are reluctant to talk on phone themselves and may employ a middle man who can distort the communication.
Way Forward
Harnessing the full potential of e-agriculture will require the implementation of a complex set
of policy, investment, innovation, and capacity-building measures, in concert with beneficiaries and other partners, which will encourage the growth of locally appropriate, affordable, and sustainable ICT infrastructure, tools, applications, and services for the rural economy.

Kisaan SMS Portal
Government of India, in 2013, developed an SMS Portal for Farmers for dissemination of
relevant information, giving topical and seasonal advisories and providing services through
SMSs in language of the state.
It is an integrated Farmers’ Portal developed completely in-house
by Department of Agriculture and Cooperation.
Agrimarket App
The mobile application has been developed as an initiative under Digital India with an aim to
keep farmers abreast with the crop prices and discourage them to carry-out distress sale.
Farmers can get information related to prices of crops in markets within 50km of their own
device location using the AgriMarket Mobile App. This app automatically captures the location
of the farmers using mobile GPS and fetches the market prices of crops which fall within the
range of 50km.
The prices of agri commodities are sourced from the Agmarknet portal.
Currently, the apps is available in English and Hindi languages.
Crop Insurance Mobile App
Crop Insurance mobile app has been developed as an initiative under Digital India which can
be used to calculate the Insurance Premium for notified crops based on area, coverage amount
and loan amount in case of loanee farmer.
It can also be used to get details of normal sum insured, extended sum insured, premium details and subsidy information of any notified crop in any notified area.
e-NAM
It is a pan-India electronic trading portal, which seeks to connect existing APMCs and other
market yards to create a unified national market for agricultural commodities.
