Raipur : Deputy Chief Minister Shri Arun Sao attended a housing fair at the Lakhiram Agarwal Auditorium in Bilaspur on Thursday, where he provided housing acceptance letters to 36,663 homeless families in rural areas, promising them a brighter future. He also symbolically handed over house keys to beneficiaries whose homes have been completed. MLA Shri Dharmjit Singh was present at the event as well.
In his address as the chief guest, Deputy Chief Minister Shri Sao emphasized that owning a home is a dream for many. He highlighted the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana as a means to turn those dreams into reality, stating that the government is dedicated to fulfilling the housing aspirations of the underprivileged. He shared that this year, over ₹132 crore has been allocated for 33,019 beneficiaries in Bilaspur district alone, with the state government aiming to provide housing for 18 lakh homeless families.
Shri Sao noted that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is continuously working to improve the lives of the people, prioritizing villages, the poor, and farmers. He recalled how the Chhattisgarh government quickly initiated the Pradhan Mantri Awas scheme, approving the project just a day after taking office. He also mentioned that on December 25, the government transferred ₹3,716 crore in bonus dues to 12 lakh farmers, honoring the legacy of former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee. Under Chief Minister Shri Vishnu Deo Sai's leadership, the government remains committed to advancing the welfare of rural communities.
MLA Shri Dharmjit Singh reflected on the past decade, noting how Prime Minister Modi has worked tirelessly to fulfill the aspirations of the people.

So far, 36,643 houses have been approved, with the first installment released for 33,019 homes, achieving around 93% of the target for previously approved projects. The event was attended by Collector Mr. Avnish Sharan, Municipal Corporation Commissioner Mr. Amit Kumar, local representatives, dignitaries, and numerous beneficiaries.
