Gujarat CM launches scheme for Homeless



GANDHINAGAR, Chief Minister Vijay Rupani on Friday launched implementation of the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojna (Gramin) in Gujarat at a function at Anand, starting with distribution of approval letters and booklet of model designs to over 14,000 homeless people  in rural areas of five districts — Ahmedabad, Gandhinagar, Anand, Aravalli and Kheda.
Speaking at the function, Rupani said that his Government is committed to help the homeless poor build their own houses, without discriminating between BPL and APL families. It is part of the State Government’s plan to provide housing to all.
 “The plan is to encompass 204,703 beneficiaries in the State, help them build their own house with 20 per cent subsidy to be directly deposited in their bank account in installments. The first installment is Rs 40,000,” he said, adding that the Prime Minister is the pride of Gujarat as he
had launched a series of welfare schemes for the poor. The State Government is also marching ahead to help the
last man in the last mile,
he added.
