Kerala's LDF government to announce completion of 5 lakh houses under the LIFE scheme on February 24 in Thiruvananthapuram.
The LDF government is set to make the declaration of the completion of the construction of 5 lakh houses under the Kerala government’s Livelihood Inclusion and Financial Empowerment (LIFE) Mission project, in Thiruvananthapuram on Tuesday (February 24).
In a statement here on Monday, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan said around ₹20,831.60 crore has been spent by the government on the LIFE Mission housing scheme.
Terming this “a model scheme for the country” in terms of efficiency and comprehensiveness, the Chief Minister said that through this initiative, the State government provides financial assistance of ₹4 lakh to every ordinary family and ₹6 lakh to Scheduled Tribe (ST) families for constructing a house.
The scheme, which provides secure houses to the homeless, is part of the LDF government’s people’s development vision, he said.
The housing scheme was launched with the goal of a State without homeless people. The project was launched in 2016.
