About this health scheme

The Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation aims to improve urban infrastructure in 500 selected cities across India. There is no application process for individuals, as projects are managed by local bodies. This scheme is ongoing since June 25, 2015.

The Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT) focuses on enhancing urban living standards. It aims to provide basic services like water supply and sewerage to households.

This scheme is run by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs. It targets cities with a population of over one lakh and includes various urban infrastructure projects.

By improving facilities such as parks and public transport, the mission seeks to uplift the quality of life, especially for the poor and disadvantaged communities.

Real-life examples: are you eligible?

A quick way to gauge your eligibility: find the profile nearest to yours.

A city with a population over one lakh is eligible for AMRUT benefits because it meets the population criteria.
A town with a population less than one lakh is not eligible because it does not meet the minimum population requirement.

Every case differs. Confirm your eligibility on the official portal before applying.

  • Expecting direct financial assistance instead of infrastructure improvements.
