In a surprising move, the Maharashtra government has unveiled a new housing policy that includes the much-awaited MHADA lottery for affordable housing. However, what’s raising eyebrows across the state is the exclusion of Mumbai — the financial capital and the city most in need of affordable housing solutions.

According to officials, the new housing policy aims to provide affordable homes to lower and middle-income groups across various districts of Maharashtra through the MHADA lottery system. Cities like Pune, Nashik, Nagpur, and Aurangabad are set to benefit from this initiative. The state government claims this move is intended to ease the urban housing crisis and promote decentralized development.



The MHADA lottery has long been a gateway for thousands of families to own a home at a reasonable price. However, the exclusion of Mumbai — a city with one of the highest real estate prices in the country — has sparked concern among housing activists and aspiring homeowners.

Speaking to RD News Network, housing experts stated that excluding Mumbai from the new scheme could further widen the affordability gap and push the dream of owning a home even farther for the city’s middle class.

The state government, however, clarified that a separate policy may soon be announced specifically for Mumbai, citing complex land acquisition issues and ongoing redevelopment projects as reasons for its exclusion from the current plan.

While the announcement is a step forward in addressing the state’s housing needs, Mumbaikars will have to wait longer for similar opportunities. As per RD News Network sources, housing demand in Mumbai continues to grow, and a targeted policy could be in the works soon.
