GANGTOK, 10 Oct [IPR]: A total of 104 houses under Reconstruction of Earthquake Damage Rural Houses (REDRH) Project were inaugurated on 09 October throughout the state. This inauguration was specially held so that the earthquake victims could move into their new houses ahead of the Dasain festival.
The REDRH project covers the reconstruction of the 7,972 earthquake damaged rural houses for the victims of the devastating 18 September, 2011 earthquake with a funding support of Rs 4.89 lakh per house. A total of 503 new houses were earlier inaugurated on 18 September, 2013 all over the state. The philosophy of Build Back Better has been the guiding strategy for this project. The homeowner-driven implementation model has been adopted and it has helped to establish a sense of ownership and identity. An efficient and transparent mechanism to ensure that beneficiary selection, stock material management, physical progress monitoring and simplification of the technical element has also been established. Also, many more houses will be completed in the months to come.
