Hyderabad: Telangana Municipal Administration and Urban Development (MA&UD) Minister KT Ram Rao on Monday asked the concerned officials to speed up the distribution process of 2BHK houses to the beneficiaries.

In a review meeting with the officials at the Hyderabad Growth Corridor Limited (HGCL) office in Nanakramguda, the concerned officials said that the construction of one lakh 2BHK is going on in the city and said that 60,000 houses have been completed.

KTR directed the GHMC officials to prepare necessary guidelines regarding the distribution of 60,000 2BHK houses within a week. He said that the guidelines must be formulated immediately in coordination with the officials of the State Housing Department. In order to formulate the guidelines, steps should be taken to ensure that the beneficiaries are selected by taking the comprehensive family survey information available with the State government.

There will be a meeting on the same issue in the coming next week and suggested the officials to be ready with the final guidelines and the necessary action regarding the distribution of houses, pointed KTR.
