Prime Minister Narendra Modi on July 3 reviewed the progress of Light House Projects (LHPs) across the country via drones.
Earlier on January 1, 2021 the PM had launched the light house projects to use new technology to complete housing projects faster while making them more resilient. Using the modern technology, work is being carried out in 6 light house projects at different sites at the moment.
Instead of brick and mortar walls, prefabricated Sandwich Panel system will be used under the new projects in Indore.
For Rajkot, light houses will be built using French technology and have monolithic concrete construction technology using tunnel and the house will be more capable of withstanding disasters.
However, in Chennai US and Finland technologies will use the Precast Concrete system, which will construct the house faster and cheaper. While for Ranchi, houses will be built using Germany's 3D construction system. Under this, each room will be made separately and then the entire structure will be added in the same way as Lego Blocks toys.
In similar way, houses are being built in Agartala with the steel frames using New Zealand's technology which can withstand major earthquake risk.
