Congress committed to fulfilling dream of poor owning a house

Shadnagar: The Congress government is committed to turning the long-cherished dream of owning a house into reality for underprivileged families through the Indiramma Housing Scheme, said Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president Mahesh Kumar Goud.

Mahesh Kumar Goud, accompanied by local MLA Veerlapalli Shankar, participated in Diwali celebrations organised under the leadership of Municipal Vice-Chairman Ande Mohan Mudiraj in the 14th Ward of Farooqnagar Mandal headquarters. During the celebrations, he visited the houses of Indiramma housing beneficiaries and interacted with the families. He enquired about the assistance being provided by the government for house construction and extended Diwali greetings to the beneficiaries. He observed that this year’s Diwali was particularly special for poor families who had finally realised their dream of owning a home. He said the celebrations were being held with Indiramma housing beneficiaries to ensure that the joy and brightness of the festival reached their homes as well.

Speaking on the occasion, Mahesh Kumar Goud said the Congress party had consistently prioritised providing housing to the poor since the days of former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. He stated that the government had identified eligible beneficiaries across Telangana and initiated the construction of Indiramma houses with the objective of fulfilling the housing aspirations of underprivileged families. He assured that every eligible family would be given an opportunity to own a house in the future.

He further stated that he had visited the area to celebrate Diwali with Indiramma housing beneficiaries under the leadership of Shadnagar MLA Veerlapalli Shankar and former MLA Chowlapalli Pratap Reddy. He added that the government’s welfare initiatives extended beyond housing and included Rythu Bharosa, farm loan waivers, bonuses for agricultural produce and employment opportunities for youth.

Reaffirming the government’s commitment to public welfare, he assured that more welfare and development programmes would be introduced and that the Congress government would continue to stand firmly with the people.

Later, marking the birthday of Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, Mahesh Kumar Goud cut a cake at an Indiramma house. He conveyed his birthday wishes to the Chief Minister and appreciated the initiatives being implemented under his leadership, stating that they were benefiting the public. He also noted that despite various challenges, the government was continuing to advance development programmes across all constituencies in the state.

Former ZPTC member Mamidi Shyam Sundar Reddy, Municipal Chairperson Agannur Basaveshwar, public representatives and Congress party workers were present at the event.
