Planning Ministry says the Government is planning to begin handing over land registries to individuals who won land plots under the Binveriya Housing Scheme.
A total of 19,631 individuals have been deemed eligible in the final list for the ‘Binveriyaa’ Housing Scheme, with 18,948 set to receive one of the currently available 9,003 land plots.
The Ministry began land plot draws for all the recipients last week and said today that it has now concluded the draw. The Ministry said that this includes those who could not attend or send someone to the draw as an official from the Ministry has taken their draws for them.
It further said that the Ministry is now making arrangements to hand over land registries to the plot recipients. It added that it plans to start handing over the registries on Thursday and that it is now making the necessary preparations.
It also said that the government is working to give the land registries to the recipients instead of a letter that says they have received the land from the government. Land registration is believed to be more legally binding than a letter of ownership.
The government planned to give 1,351 land plots from Hulhumale', 2,218 from Gulheefalhu, and around 5,432 from Giraavaru Falhu which is yet to be fully dredged.
