YES BANK, India’s fourth largest private sector bank, in a strategic association with Assocham, India’s apex industry body, released the “Roadmap to achieve Housing for all by 2022” report. The report was launched at the ASSOCHAM Real Estate Reforms Agenda, 7th Summit – cum – excellence Awards, by the Chief Guest M Venkaiah Naidu, Hon’ble Union Minister for Urban Development and Housing and Poverty Alleviation. The report provides an in-depth analysis of the real estate and housing sector in India.
Speaking at the event M Venkaiah Naidu said “India is on the brink of urban revolution. 32 per cent of the country’s population is living in urban areas but contributing 60 per cent GDP of the country. Today urban areas are at the heart of many great challenges, opportunities and promise. Since long time development of cities was ignored even as the urban population increased. It has resulted in the haphazard expansion of cities and rapid growth of slums. To overcome these challenges we all have to work together. Transparency and accountability has to be the basic principle of Governance.”
