Orissa Govt. to build 1,00,000 houses for Urban Poor

The Orissa government will build 100,000 houses for the urban poor, state minister of planning and coordination A.U. Singhdeo said Wednesday.

'We have decided to construct 100,000 houses in urban areas. These houses would be constructed in PPP (public private partnership) mode,' Singhdeo said here.

The state government is also planning to build night shelters in cities like Bhubaneswar, Cuttack, Rourkela, Berhampur and Puri.

Orissa will also set up mini-secretariats in district headquarters so that people do not have to travel to the state government secretariat here for their work.

The government has decided to bring all offices in district headquarters under one roof for better administrative services.
