The Gujarat Congress Tuesday promised home ownership to middle-class housewives in the state with affordable cost, subsidised loan and reduced interest, if the party wins the next Assembly elections.
The state party leadership made an announcement on the proposed scheme of “your own home” for housewives as the second point in their 12-point Gujarat People Development Vision 2012 and claimed that this will be the “Raksha Bandhan” gift to 10 lakh “sisters” of the state. “The BJP government has given natural resources only to selected few industrial houses, and for the middle class owning a home has remained a dream only,” said Gujarat Congress president Arjun Modhwadia.
