Telangana Allots 111 LIG Flats in Gachibowli
The Telangana Housing Board gave out 111 small flats to people who don't earn much money.
They did this through a lucky draw, which was shown live on the internet.
Many people applied, but only a few got the flats.
The government wanted to help people who need homes and didn't sell the flats for the highest price they could get.
They checked everyone's papers to make sure only the right people got the flats.
People who didn't get a flat will get their money back after January 10.
Telangana Housing Board allotted 111 LIG flats in Gachibowli through a lottery.
The process was the first of its kind in 12 years.
Eligibility was carefully verified, including income limits and lack of house ownership.
The lottery was live-streamed on social media and displayed on LED screens.
Refunds for unsuccessful applicants will be initiated after January 10.
