Konda Reddis May Get Homes, Aims to Integrate Community
Imagine a group of people called Konda Reddis who live in the forest.
The government wants to help them by offering new homes.
These homes will be built if the Konda Reddis agree, because the government wants to respect their choices.
The goal is to improve their lives, like providing better homes and access to things like internet.
The government officials are surveying families, and are reaching out to each of the residents to help the residents get better services.
The government has already helped them vote.
The program, called PM JANMAN, hopes to make sure everyone has a home.
The homes will be similar to other houses the government has built before.
Government officials initiated contact with the Konda Reddi community to offer permanent homes.
The outreach is part of the PM JANMAN initiative, which aims to uplift vulnerable tribal groups.
A comprehensive survey is underway in eight habitations to reach all Konda Reddi residents.
Officials previously helped enroll 692 voters from the community.
The homes will be offered, based on the Indiramma housing scheme, and will only be built with the community's consent.
