The government has decided to pay ₹10,000 every month to those who lost their houses in the recent floods in Kodagu till permanent structures are built for them, instead of constructing temporary houses.
Speaking to mediapersons, Minister for Housing U.T. Khader on Tuesday said that the idea was to build model houses by spending ₹6 lakh each. “The government’s aim is to offer them quality houses with all facilities,” he said.
The State-level committee had accorded permission to build one lakh houses under the Chief Minister’s Housing Scheme and orders had been issued for construction of over 49,500 houses.
