Govt to introduce a new standard operating procedure (SOP) to prevent illegal mining and transportation of sand
The Odisha government Saturday announced that the beneficiaries of the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) would be provided up to two tractor-loads of sand for free of cost for construction of house under the scheme.
"The state government would provide up to two tractor-loads of sand without any charges to the beneficiaries of PMAY," Revenue and Disaster Management Minister Suresh Pujari said.
Pujari also said that the beneficiaries would be issued permits to avail sand at an affordable rate across the state, adding that the move aims at reducing the construction cost on financially weak beneficiaries.
