Double bedroom Housing scheme facing hurdles in Hyderabad

Telangana government is facing hurdles for the double bedroom (2-BHK) houses as the works are yet to kick start despite foundation stones being laid at various locations in Hyderabad.

Issues such as possession certificates to occupants in identified slums and handing over land to the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC), and land acquisition have caused a major roadblock to the project. Also, orders pertaining to new building by-laws and per unit price has not been fixed by the Municipal Administration and Urban Development Department.

Due to non-availability of government land in Hyderabad, the state government has decided to construct 1.85 lakh housing units (in situ) in the slums.
