"The 2BHK houses in Telangana is being constructed at a cost of Rs 18,000 crore. The houses are being constructed for the poor in the rural areas regardliess of village or town. The CM has made it clear to give away double bedroom houses to all the poor and the government will keep its word," the minister said.

He added that the construction cost of a house will take Rs 20-25 lakh if it is constructed by a private builder. "The houses are being allocated to the eligible beneficiaries without giving any chance to politics. Since the formation of TRS government, many welfare schemes are introduced. However, some of the opposition parties are still criticising the government," Rama Rao said, questioning if there is any state which is implementing the scheme of its kind.
