Jharkhand Parties Clash Over Housing Scheme Progress
Imagine the government is building houses for people who need them.
One group, the BJP, says the building isn't going well, with many houses unfinished.
They say the government isn't giving money or helping enough.
Another group, the JMM, says the houses are going well and are liked by many.
They also say the first group is spreading false information.
The plan was to build a lot of houses by 2026, but the first group says only a few have been finished.
The second group says they're trying to build more houses and blames the other group for not wanting people to have homes.
BJP criticized the Abua Awas Yojana, claiming it has achieved only 15% of its target.
JMM refuted the BJP's claims, calling the scheme a popular welfare measure.
The scheme aims to build eight lakh houses by 2026 with a budget exceeding Rs 16,000 crore.
BJP cited examples of incomplete houses in various blocks across Jharkhand.
JMM accused the BJP of spreading falsehoods and hindering the scheme's progress.
