Free houses for the poor

Our Bureau

BANGALORE: The Matha Amrithanandamayi Math is distributing 1,000 houses free to economically and socially-challenged sections of Bangalore.

This was announced here by the head of the Karnataka wing of the Math, Brahmchari Narayana Chaitanya. This was part of the Amritha Kuteeram Project, he said. The Math's volunteers would identify the recipients for these houses. All the resources for construction of the houses, human, material and financial have been fully incurred by the math itself, he said.

The Math has so far constructed 25,000 houses around the country, in Delhi, Hyderabad, Pune and Kochi and already distributed it free. In Karnataka, the Math has already distributed 300 houses built in Mysore.

The Math, he said, has targeted construction and distribution of at least 1 lakh houses around the country.
