Prime Minister Modi said on Saturday that despite the challenges posed by the coronavirus pandemic, Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana has built 1.75 lakhs houses for his beneficiaries.
Prime Minister Modi said: “Before there was a lot of government intervention when it comes to building houses, but our government has made sure that the people for whom the houses are being built are part of the process, which was not the norm before “.
PM said that now not only the poor have houses, but they have all the facilities integrated together with the house thanks to PM Awas Yojana. He said that now the houses under PM Awas Yojana have water, LPG and electricity connections when they are delivered to the beneficiaries.
PM Modi said: “The government has taken into consideration that various groups of people like the Adivasis have a different lifestyle, their suggestions were never taken into consideration before, but our government has made houses for the people based on their needs. . We don’t build complex structures where people would live in a congested way. “
The prime minister emphasized how these towns where the houses are being built are being empowered by installing optical fibers, providing WiFi connectivity and developing roads so that people living in these rural areas can have access to the necessary amenities for development.
The inclusion of female masons and carpenters, ensuring the participation of the rural labor force in the construction of houses under PMAY and ensuring that beneficiaries do not have to run from pillar to post for services such as water and electricity supply has been the main objective of this government, added Prime Minister Narendra Modi. .
During the program, the prime minister spoke with beneficiaries Pyarelal Yadav and Narendra Namdev, who told the prime minister how PMAY has made his dream of owning his own land come true.
