Karimnagar, Telangana – July 20, 2025
Telangana Civil Supplies Minister Ponnam Prabhakar issued a strong warning to beneficiaries of the *Indiramma Housing Scheme, stating that those who fail to begin construction of their allotted homes by *August 1, 2025, risk losing their housing allotment altogether.
Speaking during his visit to Bheemdevarapalli and Elkathurthi villages under Husnabad constituency in Saidapur Mandal, Karimnagar district, the Minister emphasized the importance of timely initiation of house construction by eligible beneficiaries.
“Those who have been sanctioned houses under the Indiramma scheme must begin construction, at the very least by laying the foundation or performing the traditional ‘muggu’ marking before the deadline. Otherwise, the sanction may be revoked,” he stated.
Key Highlights:
- Deadline: August 1, 2025 – beneficiaries must begin construction.
- Warning Issued By: Civil Supplies Minister Ponnam Prabhakar.
- Consequence: Allotments may be cancelled for non-compliance.
- Location of Review: Bheemdevarapalli and *Elkathurthi, *Karimnagar district.
- Scheme: Indiramma Housing – a flagship welfare program by the Telangana government for the economically weaker sections.
What Beneficiaries Need to Do:
- Perform muggu (foundation markings) on the site as proof of initiation.
- Start basic construction steps before August 1 to retain eligibility.
- Approach local mandal or housing officials if facing genuine construction hurdles.
Minister Ponnam assured that the government is committed to uplifting the poor through the *Indiramma housing initiative, but also made it clear that any *delay, negligence, or misuse of the sanctioned plots or funds will not be tolerated.
“Thousands are waiting for their turn. If sanctioned houses are not used sincerely, others in need will be given the opportunity,” the Minister added.
Why This Matters:
The Indiramma Housing Scheme was revived to ensure dignified housing for the underprivileged. With government subsidies and support in place, officials are urging beneficiaries to act fast and responsibly.
