Living in a house doesn’t always mean owning it. Many people across Punjab live in homes without formal property rights. To change this, the Punjab government started the Punjab Mera Ghar Mera Naam scheme. This scheme aims to give ownership rights to people living in houses within the Lal Dora areas of villages and towns.
Overview of Punjab Mera Ghar Mera Naam Scheme 2025
Punjab’s Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi launched this scheme to help residents get legal ownership of their homes. It focuses on houses located in the Lal Dora area — a traditional settlement area within villages and cities where many residents did not have property rights before. About 12,700 villages in Punjab will be covered by this scheme.
To digitally map these areas, the Revenue Department will use drones to survey both rural and urban localities. The process of giving property rights and ownership documents will be completed within two months, making it faster and easier for residents to get their property rights.
