Heritage City Development and Augmentation Yojana- HRIDAY

Need:

Heritage areas are neglected, overcrowded with inadequate basic services and infrastructure, such as water supply, sanitation, roads, etc. Basic amenities like toilets, signage, street lights are missing. Multiple institutions and unclear regulatory framework for financing and managing urban heritage assets and landscapes, as well as weak capacity of ULBs have created major challenges for managing these heritage cities. That is why HRIDAY scheme was launched.

The scheme will help explore the full potential of the rich and diverse natural, historic and cultural resources of India to its full advantage.
