Congress Government Committed to Housing for the Poor in Bhadrachalam
Bhadrachalam: Revenue and Housing Minister Ponguleti Srinivas Reddy has assured that the Congress government is dedicated to providing Indiramma houses for every poor family in Bhadrachalam.
The minister, along with Mahabubabad MP Balaram Naik, handed over 117 renovated houses to beneficiaries in AMC Colony, Bhadrachalam. The renovation of these houses cost Rs 7.36 crore. He expressed satisfaction that the government had successfully provided all necessary facilities in the colony and repaired damaged houses wherever needed.
Reddy reminded people that between 2004 and 2014, the Indiramma government had built 25 lakh houses for the poor. However, in the last ten years, housing for the underprivileged was neglected. Upon coming to power, the Congress government found 1,56,000 incomplete houses. They took up their renovation and ensured the necessary amenities were provided. So far, 96,000 houses have been completed and handed over to the poor, showcasing the government’s commitment.
The minister also shared that a pilot project has been launched to construct 35,000 Indiramma houses in each Assembly constituency. For this, Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy has sanctioned Rs 387 crore.
He further assured that the government would not stop until every poor family received a house by Ugadi. He also stated that during the government’s remaining term, they aim to provide 20 lakh houses to poor families. In remote tribal villages, houses will be built for every poor tribal family with the blessings of Lord Sri Sitaramachandra.
