Kerala to get new housing policy soon, says Minister for Revenue and Housing K. Rajan

The State will get a new housing policy soon, Minister for Revenue and Housing K. Rajan has said.

He was speaking after inaugurating the State’s first 3D-printed building AMAZE-28 on the Kerala State Nirmithi Kendra (Kesnik) campus at PTP Nagar here on Tuesday. Designed as a demonstration project, AMAZE-28, a summer house developed by Tvasta, a Chennai-based construction tech start-up launched by IIT-Madras alumni in association with the Union Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs, was completed in 28 days using locally developed 3D printing technology.

The Minister said the new policy will take into account various challenges faced by the State, including climate change. New technologies and green construction techniques should be incorporated in the housing sector, he added.
