Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao on Monday had a unique ‘daawat’ (dinner) with over 300 owners of 2BHK flats in IDH colony in Hyderabad, which the government provided them free of cost.As part of TRS poll promise of constructing 2BHK houses for poor, KCR handed over registration documents to over 350 beneficiaries in the first phase. Each house was built at a cost of nearly Rs 9.50 lakh in about 560 sq.ft in G+2 format.
KCR visited the colony during Dasara last year and was shocked at the dilapidated houses that may collapse any time. He urged residents to vacate those houses, got them demolished and promised to build 2BHK flats in G+2 mode in the slum. As promised, he got the works completed in a year and handed over flat keys to beneficiaries. He promised to have dinner along with them when they enter the new houses than.
As promised, he had a dinner along with flat owners and said it was the happiest day in his life since it was for the first time in the country that 2BHK houses were provided to poor free of cost in the midst of the city unlike other governments which constructed single room houses far from the city. KCR said 60,000 2BHK houses would be built in entire state this year and all homeless would be covered in the next three years.
