Speaking in the Assembly on the discussion for budget demand for his department, he said this is following a rousing welcome witnessed for the self-certification scheme introduced last year for residential buildings with ground plus one floors. Muthusamy said that in the eight months since the scheme was launched, a total of 21,325 people have benefited.

The government had the scheme for residential buildings with a plot area of up to 2,500 sq feet, built-up area of up to 3,500 sq ft with a maximum of two dwelling units and the buildings' height not exceeding seven metres.
