Tamil Nadu Urban Habitat Development Board (TNUHDB) has been asked to allocate 5% of the houses it builds to the differently abled people living below the poverty line.
The government order was issued recently by the Department of the Welfare of Differently abled Persons.
According to the order, a similar allocation should be made by the Department of Rural Development and Panchayat Raj (RDPR) in its housing schemes for the poor.
