The UT Administration has invited Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to hand over the keys of 8100 small flats constructed at Dhanas under the slum rehabilitation scheme of JNNURM. The much ambitious project to construct 8100 flats in Dhanas villages on 162.5 acres land is likely to be completed by this month. And, the possession of flats would be handed over to the beneficiaries during next month.
An official of Chandigarh Housing Board said, “The CHB has invited Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to hand over the keys of flats to beneficiaries. This is the biggest project under the slum rehabilitation in the country.”
“The CHB have already submitted that all the works which have been entrusted to them have been completed and verification of about 8100 beneficiaries have also been done,” he added.
A huge task of allotting about 8100 small flats linked with Aadhar numbers is being undertaken by the UT Administration and a township of about 40,000 persons is going to come up at Dhanas.
