Odisha's JAGA Mission Grants Land Rights to Slum Dwellers

Odisha’s JAGA Mission: How slum dwellers get land rights, not just houses

Odisha's JAGA Mission is revolutionizing urban development by granting slum dwellers legal land rights, moving beyond mere housing. Launched in 2017, the initiative transforms existing slums into liveable neighbourhoods through infrastructure upgrades and community participation. This approach secures tenure, boosts confidence for home improvements, and integrates these communities into the city's fabric, fostering a more inclusive urban future.
