What does this status mean?
Meaningful delivery has occurred, but the stated commitment is incomplete.
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.
Original manifesto wording
“We will expand the Deendayal Upadhyaya Homestay Scheme to increase the capital subsidy for hill areas from the current ₹ 10 lakhs to ₹ 15 lakhs and that of the plains areas from the current ₹ 7.5 Lakhs to ₹ 10 Lakhs.”
Our Assessment
Homestay support is active and later reporting states assistance up to ₹15 lakh, but Pauri district material still records the older ₹10 lakh hill / ₹7.5 lakh plains capital subsidy structure. I could not verify both promised increases as a clean statewide rule. Hill-area increase appears partly reflected in later reporting, but the exact two-part increase for hill and plains is not fully verified from official scheme text. Budget: About ₹50 crore grant support to 1,085 beneficiaries was reported in 2025; scheme-specific revised subsidy liability exists but exact hill/plains revision not isolated.
