Minister of Housing and Infrastructure Dr. Mohamed Muizzu has announced that every single person to have submitted their application forms to acquire flats in the government Housing Scheme “Hiyaa”, will receive flats.
Muizzu made this announcement while speaking to attendees at a ceremony to launch a plan for the second phase of Villimale on Thursday, where he also relayed President Abdulla Yameen's request to assure that those who have already submitted their application forms and those who submit them by the 30th of September will be guaranteed flats under the “Hiyaa” housing scheme.
While the administration is to give out 7,000 flats under this housing scheme, Muizzu revealed that the ministry has received 18,000 flat forms thus far. However, he did not reveal how the ministry is going to manage the distribution of flats among all applicants.
While the government is to launch a plan for phase II of Villimale, two days prior to the Presidential Election, the development scheme aims to provide housing for 315,000 citizens.
