Mata Amritanandamayi Math, under its rehabilitation project, is ready to construct over 800 houses for the flood-affected in North Karnataka.
MAM has started construction in four villages of Raichur District where devastation took place due to unprecedented rain from September 29 to October 4, 2009.
The villages, where the housing project has been taken up, were Kurvakuda, Manikigaddi, Kurvakala, and Agrahara, located on an island on the river Krishna.
MAM is building over 800 houses on the mainland for relocation and rehabilitation of the villagers from the island to the mainland.
You may recollect that MAM has been extensively involved in the relief work when the floods affected Karnataka and Andra Pradesh and had announced a 50-Cr relief package for the victims of this area.
