Today will be a memorable day for 162 families who once used to live in a slum settlement in Sanathnagar. The families will be handed over the keys for their brand new two-bedroom homes built under Telangana government’s Dignity Housing Scheme.
The Potti Sriramulu Nagar 2BHK Housing Colony, which has come-up under the dignity housing initiative, will be inaugurated by Minister for Animal Husbandry, Talasani Srinivas Yadav on Monday. The brand-new housing society is spread over 0.7 acres and built with a cost of over Rs 14 crore.
The society is equipped with CC roads, sewerage lines, sumps exclusively for drinking water and also electricity. The cost of each dwelling unit (DU)
measuring 560 sq ft is Rs 8.65 lakh. The housing society has two lifts and nine shops, which are a common feature in most of the housing projects taken up by the State government. The shops provide much needed revenue for the maintenance of the lifts.
The inaugural function will also be attended by several elected representatives including Deputy Speaker T Padma Rao, Mayor G Vijaya Laxmi.
Two other societies located in Sanathnagar are also scheduled for inauguration in July. The G Y Reddy Compound 2BHK Housing Colony and Golla Komaraiah Colony 2BHK Housing Colony, both in Sanathnagar, will be inaugurated on July 1 and July 5 respectively.
