They said that the process of handing over the houses to eligible beneficiaries was progressing at a brisk pace and the verification process of applicants who had already submitted their applications was near completion.
KTR said that as against the target of constructing one lakh 2BHK houses in the GHMC limits, 75,000 double-bedroom houses had been constructed and nearly 4,500 houses had already been handed over to in-situ beneficiaries. "Nearly 70,000 houses which are ready to be handed over to the beneficiaries will be distributed in five to six phases.
