Housing assistance payments will be distributed to 32,000 families during the current fiscal year, according to an official announcement. The amount allocated under the housing assistance scheme has been raised to ₹6 lakh per family, marking an increase from previous disbursement levels.
The enhancement to housing assistance forms part of a wider package of welfare measures being rolled out to support vulnerable populations in the region. Officials said the increased allocation aims to provide more substantial support for families seeking to improve their living conditions.
In related developments, welfare initiatives for dialysis patients have been inaugurated in Kattakambal. The new medical support programs are designed to improve access to treatment for patients requiring regular dialysis services, addressing a critical healthcare gap in the area.
The combined initiatives represent efforts by regional authorities to expand the social safety net across multiple sectors, from housing to healthcare. Officials emphasized that the programs target economically disadvantaged sections of the population who struggle to meet basic needs independently.
