Will bring positive changes in people's lives: Narendra Modi

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Tuesday that his government is committed to the goal of providing houses to every needy family, asserting it is making sincere efforts to bring positive changes in the lives of citizens through various welfare schemes.

Modi wrote this in his reply to a beneficiary of the 'Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana', saying happiness of getting your own roof and house is priceless.

The beneficiary, Sudhir Kumar Jain of Sagar district in Madhya Pradesh, in a letter to Modi had described the housing scheme as a boon for homeless poor families, an official statement said.

Jain said he had been living in a rented house and had changed houses many times. He also shared his pain of changing houses frequently, it noted.

Congratulating him on getting his house, the Prime Minister said a house is not just a structure made of bricks and cement. "Our feelings and aspirations are also attached to it, and the boundary walls of the house not only provide security but also give the confidence of a better tomorrow.
