Minister Srinivas Reddy expressed satisfaction over the progress, emphasizing that the government has been proactive in addressing housing issues for the poor. He recalled that the Indiramma government, from 2004 to 2014, had built 25 lakh houses for the underprivileged. However, he noted that housing efforts for the poor had been largely neglected in the last decade.

Upon coming to power, the Congress government identified 1,56,000 incomplete houses and initiated their renovation. To date, 96,000 houses have been completed and handed over to the poor. This ongoing effort highlights the commitment of the Congress government to ensure that no family is left without a roof.
