Engineer, JE's, supervisor and Panchayats jointly inspected and supervised the CMRHM pucca house work being carried out by 171 beneficiaries of Tingchim-Mangshila GPU and 88 beneficiaries of Namok-Swyem GPU. Total 1131 beneficiaries are enlisted under the CMRHM scheme from the entire North district.
The DDO North, informed that pucca house with GCI roof with one slab is estimated at Rs.3.5 lakh and with RCC slab is estimated at Rs.4 lakh.  He  also directed the beneficiaries to complete the construction by the end of March 2012 and take up quality work otherwise the funds will not be released as per the direction of the Chief Minister to make Sikkim a kutcha house-free state.
It may be mentioned here that, due to delay in supply of raw materials by suppliers of MGNREGA scheme the ground leveling and foundation work of CMRHM is being delayed and day-by-day the rates are rising, so raw materials should reach on time while the department’s monitoring staff which ensures that quality work is in progress are also short in supply.
