The State housing board has requested the government to provide a
grant of nearly Rs 6 crore to restore flood damaged tenements under
the government rental housing scheme (TNGRHS) and board scheme.
TNHB sources told Express that assistance has been sought under
National Disaster Response Fund (NDRF) to carry out restoration work
for the flood-hit tenements. It is learnt that TNHB has sought Rs 5
crore for repairing the tenements under rental housing scheme and Rs
90 lakh for repairing the tenements under the State housing board
scheme.
Most of the tenements under rental housing scheme and board scheme
were affected in the historic rains. These include the tenements
located in Ayanavaram, Shenoy Nagar, K G Colony, Mogappair East,
Shanti Colony, K K Nagar, Foreshore Estate, SAF Games Village, R K
Nagar, Tod Hunter Nagar CTO quarters in Thiruvanmiyur among others.
Sources said the funds would be utilised to carryout civil and water
supply repairs, dewatering and pump set repairs, electrical repairs,
sewer line and inspection chamber repairs, sump and overhead tank
cleaning and garage cleaning.
Sources said that due to stagnation of flood waters most of the TNHB
tenements were damaged. “The flooring, water closets, brick work,
plastering and doors and windows were damaged. The civil works and
water supply repairs alone would cost Rs 3.50 crore. Even the sewerage
pump sets have to undergo repairs which would cost another Rs 75
lakh,” said TNHB sources.
Some of the tenements electrical panel switch board has also been
damaged and TNHB estimates it to be around Rs 36 lakh for rental
housing scheme.
Even the sump of the tenements has been hit as the sewage water has
entered. It has to be urgently cleaned, said sources.
The source said that the amount provided by the government towards
maintenance of TNGRHS flats was sufficient only to maintain the day to
day essential services only, adding that the State housing board does
not have resources to carry out restoration activities on its own.
