Hulhumale' Development Corporation HDC has held the flat draw for housing unit recipients under the category for people with disabilities H-10 of the Hiya Housing Scheme.
The draw was made between the flats recipients included in the permanent list compiled by the Housing Ministryry and their ID card numbers were used in the draw.
While draw was broadcasted live on 'PSM' and 'Yes TV', the broadcasts showed the flat number, unit floor, and unit tower each recipient had received.
HDC said that after the draw, a text message would be sent to the mobile number given by the recipient with the confirmation of the flat unit they had drawn with all the necessary details.
HDC also said that there is a web link on the message and the user can view more information once he/she clicks on the link.
The draw for the Hiya Flats have begun after the Housing Minister Mohamed Aslam had said yesterday that once the draw is made, the recipients would be asked to sign the lease agreement and handed over the keys to the flats. He added that they can move in once they receive the keys.
While the government is allowing flat recipients to move into the flats without completing the finishing work on the housing units, Aslam had said that they would be given a three-month grace period to complete this work.
