Affordable homes: Can they be a reality?

Magicbricks.com moderator says: At a recent seminar on affordable homes, I heard many people speak on the subject. Many speakers said that the government needs to draft policies for affordable homes. Other speakers mentioned that private developers need to take a lead there?

How do we begin on this concept? Who should take a lead here? Govt or private developers or both of them (Public-Private-Participation model). Any idea, any suggestions? Please paste your answers in the ‘comments’ section. Else, mail them to editor@magicbricks.com.
