Summary

Awas Vikas had launched Basera-1 and Bassera-2  schemes for Economically Weaker Sections under Awadh Vihar Yojana in 2013 at Shahid Path. The allottees had been promised that the construction of the flats would be complete within two years. The allotment was done in March 2014, and the allottees made full payment. But the construction didn't start until months. When the allottees protested at Awas Vikas Parishad, only then the officers and engineers said that the construction would be over by July 2015; that didn't happen. Since then the allottees have been making daily rounds of the Parishad. When these allottees enquired with the Parishad officers they were informed that the construction work would be over soon and the notice to submit the remaining amount would be issued.
In December 2020, it was reported that the construction has been completed of the project under Awadh Vihar Yojana. Prime Minister Narendra Modi will lay the foundation stone of the project on January 1st, 2021 and the chief minister will be present at the foundation stone laying ceremony venue.
