PMAY-G survey to use 'face recognition' tools to identify new beneficiaries

The survey, which has already started across the country for building the fresh 20 million new rural houses over the next five years, can also be done by the beneficiary himself/herself as well through the Awaassoft mobile application specially created for this purpose. "Self-survey can be done only once through any one mobile device so that there is no duplication or mistake," a senior government official said.

First-time beneficiaries will get priority in the new survey.
