Distribution ceremonies held in Bharur, Namol, Kila Bharian, Lohakhera and Buggar
Families living within the Lal Lakir for generations receive documentary proof of home ownership: Aman Arora
Sunam, November 10 (Joginder): Punjab Cabinet Minister Aman Arora today handed over home ownership documents to 1,338 families under the ‘Mera Ghar Mere Naam’ scheme at distribution ceremonies held in five villages of the Sunam Assembly constituency — Bharur, Namol, Kila Bharian, Lohakhera and Buggar. He congratulated the families on receiving their ownership documents.
Sharing the village-wise details, Arora said that 133 families in Bharur, 585 in Namol, 260 in Kila Bharian, 213 in Lohakhera and 147 in Buggar received ownership documents. He said that organising distribution ceremonies at the village level enabled beneficiaries to collect their documents in their own villages.
Addressing the gatherings, the Cabinet Minister said that many families had been living within the Lal Lakir, the traditional boundary of a village’s residential area, for generations. However, several of these families did not have formal documents establishing ownership of their homes. He said that the objective of the ‘Mera Ghar Mere Naam’ scheme was to provide eligible families with documentary proof of ownership of their houses.
Arora said that having official records containing details of both the property and its owner was very important for every family. These documents would help families establish their ownership whenever required. He added that the records would also be valuable for future generations, as they would have written proof of ownership of their homes.
The Cabinet Minister said that the Punjab Government was committed to ensuring that every eligible family received the benefits of the scheme. He urged beneficiaries to carefully check the names and property details mentioned in their documents and preserve them safely. He added that families could contact the concerned office if they required any clarification regarding the recorded details.
Office-bearers, local dignitaries and a large number of village residents were present during the distribution ceremonies.
