HYDERABAD could in the near future have a clone of New Delhi's India Habitat Centre — a well spread out multi-storied, multi-block complex, aesthetically designed centre housing a number of modern offices, restaurants, convention and recreation areas.
Stating this, the Union Minister for Urban Development and Poverty Alleviation, Mr Bandaru Dattatreya, said the Government had proposed such a project and would initiate steps soon.
Mr Dattatreya said the Centre had spent a large amount for projects in Andhra Pradesh during the last four years. Projects worth about Rs 7,985 crore are under various stages of completion. The total amount spent on housing alone was Rs 2,250.24 crore, he told newspersons recently.
The break-up of other funding was Rs 5,100.65 crore on urban infrastructure, Rs 317.32 crore on rural sanitation and Rs 317.04 crore on integrated low-cost sanitation projects, Mr Dattatreya said.
The Housing and Urban Development Corporation, under the Ministry of Urban Development, had also completed 24,53,604 units of housing, urban infrastructure, rural sanitation and integrated low-cost sanitation during 1999-2003.
