Haryana News Chandigarh : .

The General Secretary of the All India Congress Committee, former Union Minister, and MP from Sirsa Lok Sabha constituency, Kumari Selja said that the BJP government of the state is mocking the poor, farmers, youth, and employees. Families living below the poverty line who were supposed to receive 100-100 square yard plots for free are now being given 30-30 square yard plots for a payment of one lakh rupees, which will have to be paid in installments. It is said that a loan of up to 6 lakhs will be made available for house construction. In such a situation, how will a poor family pay at least 13,000 rupees in installments? The government has entangled them in the name of plots. When they cannot arrange for the money, they will have to leave the plot. 

In a statement released to the media Kumari Selja said that the then Chief Minister Manohar Lal had announced that in 11 cities, poor people with an income of less than 1.80 lakh rupees would be given 30 square yard plots under the Housing for All scheme. Under this scheme, 10,000 rupees must be deposited within 30 days of receiving the provisional allotment letter, and the remaining 80,000 rupees must be deposited in six installments. According to the condition, the plot holder must build a residential unit within one year of allotment and complete the construction within 24 months. The plot can only be used for residential construction, and it cannot be sold or leased for 10 years from the date of allotment.

 Kumari Selja said that according to the condition, the beneficiary will be given a home loan facility of up to 6 lakh rupees from banks/financial institutions at interest. She said that the beneficiary will have to pay at least 13,000 rupees per month as plot and bank installments, which is impossible for a BPL family. How will a family with an income of less than 1.80 lakh rupees manage to pay 13,000 rupees in installments and also support the family? If the conditions of the government are not met, they will have to surrender the plot. 

She said that giving 30-30 square yard plots to the poor is a mockery. Kumari Selja said that if the government had to give plots, they should have been given for free. Kumari Selja said that during the Congress rule, 100-100 square yard plots were given to the poor for free. The BJP government has mocked the poor by giving 30-30 square yard plots for money instead of following that policy. She said that when the Congress government comes to power, 100-100 square yard plots will be given to the poor for free.
