Meanwhile, Sulakshana Sawant, wife of Goa Chief Minister Pramod Sawant earlier thanked Union Home Minister Amit Shah for the launch of 'Mhaje Ghar Yojana' as she highlighted that houses built before 1972 here often lacked proper ownership documents, creating hurdles for residents in transferring or constructing homes.
"I thank Union Home Minister Amit Shah. He inaugurated 'Mhaje Ghar Yojana' and dedicated many projects. Mhaje Ghar Yojana has been started, so that the house in which someone is living is registered in their name. So, if a house needs to be transferred or new construction is to be done, then he doesn't face any problems with the documents. If we look specifically at the houses that were built before 1972, they didn't have any documents. So, they didn't have any documents of their house or land," said Sulakshana.
"This scheme is very beneficial for those who own such houses, allowing them to acquire their own ownership rights. I believe this is a scheme that impacts more than half of Goa's population so positively and makes their lives so much easier," she added.
Earlier in October, Union Minister Amit Shah inaugurated and laid the foundation stones for various development projects, including the Goa Government's 'Mhaje Ghar Yojana'.Shah distributed the certificates to the beneficiaries of the 'Mhaje Ghar Yojana'.
In his address, Shah said that the 'Mhaje Ghar Yojana' being launched today is not just a government scheme, but a reflection of the efforts made by our government under the leadership of PM Modi for reforms, led by a capable administration and a sensitive government.

As someone who recently moved to Goa, I appreciate how this addresses historical property issues. Proper documentation will boost real estate transparency and investment in the state.
Good initiative but implementation is key. Hope the process is simple and doesn't involve too much bureaucracy. Many elderly people in Goa need this urgently.
The pre-1972 documentation issue is a real problem across many Indian states. If this works in Goa, it could become a model for other states to follow. Smart policy thinking!
My aunt in Vasco has been struggling with property papers for years. She'll be so relieved! Hope the government ensures awareness reaches all remote villages too. ðŸ
While the scheme is good, I hope it doesn't get politicized too much. Property rights should be above politics. Let's focus on helping people, not scoring political points.
