The dream of 2,00,000 people in Haryana to own a house of their own will soon become a reality with Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini’s government preparing a blueprint for a housing scheme.

Under this initiative, eligible candidates, without land, will receive plots of 100 square yards each in the villages. In this context, J Ganeshan, Director General of the Housing for All Department, held a meeting with department officials to provide essential guidelines.

In an official statement, Ganeshan stated that the objective of the Chief Minister’s Rural Housing Scheme is to provide housing plots for low-income families in the state who do not have their own homes.

This scheme aims to enable the low-income group to construct their own houses. The successful implementation of the scheme will enhance the living standards of poorer families, allowing them to lead safe and dignified lives in their own homes.

While directing the officials to this effect, J Ganeshan said since the scheme is a flagship initiative of Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini, all the processes associated with the scheme should be expedited to ensure that the public could avail of its benefits as quickly as possible.

the chief minister held a meeting.

It is noteworthy here that last Friday, during a meeting with senior officials, including Development and Panchayat Minister Krishan Lal Panwar and Urban Local Bodies Minister Vipul Goyal, the chief minister instructed them to ensure all essential facilities such as paved roads, electricity, clean drinking water, streetlights, solar energy, parks, and open green spaces in the areas where the 100-square-yard plots will be allocated.
