GANGTOK, 22 May: The BDO Yuksam handed over pucca houses under Chief Minister’s Rural Housing Mission (CMRHM) to six beneficiaries from two gram panchayats viz., Arithang- Chongrang and Melli-Aching under BAC Yuksam on Sunday. The function was attended by the Assistant Engineer, Junior Engineer, Panchayats , APO, RDA, GRS and local villagers.
The BDO and the engineers from the BAC also inspected the CMRHM houses under various stages of construction in the two gram panchayats. The team also visited the Gangyap Junior High School and inspected the progress of the extension work of the old playground  being executed under MGNREGA.
BDO Yuksam informed that a total number of twenty one such CMRHM pucca houses have been completed under the BAC so far, the first of which was completed in September 2011 and handed over to the beneficiary.
The objective of CMRHM is to provide quality housing for the rural poor and make Sikkim a kutcha house free state by 2013. The scheme is an owner-driven conversion of the existing kutcha house into a pucca house. The beneficiary himself will construct the pucca house and no contractor is allowed in the scheme. CMRHM is an integral part of the Mission: Poverty Free Sikkim - 2013 which was launched in Sept. 2010.
