Yep! I mentioned housing specifically because PMAY-U and PMAY-G was supposed to be Modi's crowing achievement (also the easiest way to pull off graft en masse), along with UBI [0]. Food security, Housing, and UBI are the three holy grails - whichever party successfully delivers on all 3 becomes invincible for a generation, and why the BJP has been doing what it's doing.
