Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan slammed the Bharatiya Janata Party-led Union government’s bid to usurp credit for the State government’s LIFE Mission housing project by insisting that dwellings constructed under the scheme should display the logo of Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana.
Speaking to mediapersons in Kannur on Monday, Mr. Vijayan said the government was constitutionally bound to eradicate homelessness. Every citizen had a right to a home and LIFE Mission spearheaded the programme. Mr. Vijayan said the LDF recognised access to modern housing as a fundamental right of citizens.
