Housing Scheme; Beneficiaries having financial problem will get funds from coop banks: UT Khader
Bengaluru, June 20: Housing and Urban Development Minister UT Khader said that the housing scheme beneficiaries, who have financial problem to construct the houses, will get financial assistance from the cooperative banks.
Speaking to reporters after holding a meeting with the party workers at KPCC office here on Wednesday, he said that in Siddaramaiah-led Congress government, total 15 lakh houses were sanctioned to the beneficiaries. Out of which, 8.50 lakh houses were completed. But for the beneficiaries who are facing financial problem to construct the houses, the government has planned to get loans sanctioned from the cooperative banks, he said.
The first installment amount to be released by the government would directly be remitted to the cooperative banks. He would hold a meeting with the cooperative banks authorities shortly and take a decision, he said.
Hatred politics
The BJP-led NDA government at the centre has targeted the Congress leaders and indulging in hate politics by conducting raids through IT and CBI. If there is a mistake, let them take legal action. But the centre has been misusing the Constitutional institutions and making them weak.

Hoax bomb threat emails spark security alert at Karnataka government offices; no explosives found
Karwar/Tumakuru: Government offices in three Karnataka towns were placed on high alert on Tuesday after bomb threat emails were received by the tahsildar offices in Karwar and Bhatkal, and the deputy commissioner’s office in Tumakuru.
According to a report published by Deccan Herald, police officials said all three emails originated from a single email ID and contained claims of “revenge from Tamilians and Pakistanis.” Following the threats, security agencies immediately swung into action and the premises were evacuated and thoroughly searched.
Teams from the local police, bomb disposal squad and dog squad were deployed at all locations. Authorities have confirmed that no suspicious objects or explosives were found. They called the threats a hoax, after extensive checks.
Uttara Kannada Superintendent of Police Deepan M N said precautionary measures were taken as per protocol to ensure public safety. “A detailed search was conducted at all the mentioned offices, but nothing incriminating was found,” he said.
Police have begun efforts to trace the source of the emails and identify the sender while security around key government buildings in the affected districts was heightened as a precaution, officials added.
