Karimnagar: BC Welfare and Civil Supplies Minister Gangula Kamalakar said the dream of the poor to have a house of their own was being fulfilled with the construction of double bedroom houses across the State as part of the 2BHK housing scheme launched by the State government.

Speaking at an event after inaugurating 40 double bedroom houses in Mugdumpur of Karimnagar rural mandal on Monday, the Minister said the State government was committed to the welfare of all sections of the society and the housing scheme brought cheers to the women folk in particular. Even after seven decades of country’s independence, no government thought of providing housing to homeless people. However, the KCR government in Telangana took up the double-bedroom scheme on a large scale to provide dignity housing to the poor across the State, the Minister stated.
