Vijayawada: Endowments Minister Vellampalli Srinivas on Thursday urged the residents of Dal Mill area to come forward to construct houses under PM Awas Yojana in their colony.

Former corporator of the 48 division B Punyaseela explained the need for construction of houses under the PM Awas Yojana.

He further said the remaining amount will be sanctioned as bank loan.
The residents said they would discuss and inform to the officials. Proposal for construction of houses under PM Awas Yojana has been pending for the last 10 years. Former Union Minister K Chiranjeevi laid foundation stone for the construction of houses. But the proposal is still pending due to administrative reasons and non-co-operation of residents.
