Thara emphasized that the Government would be satisfied and well-contented if its policies are well-implemented through a partnership spirit with the private sector since the current political class is very clear about its vision for the next five years. She also stressed the importance of investment in rain harvesting projects as a core infrastructure plan for the private sector in housing complexes, particularly in the affordable housing sector.
The real estate sector would need to create walkable spaces and provision for parks, school-ways, and pathways powered by solar energy. Additionally, builders would need to incorporate ample rain harvesting and water resource management within the project site, rather than depending on water supplies from neighbouring locations.
Speaking at the 3rd NAREDCO Mahi Convention, President of NAREDCO, G. Haribabu, regretted that the real estate sector still does not have as many women entrepreneurs as required for its potential. Chairman of NAREDCO, Dr. Niranjan Hiranandani, pointed out that in the first cabinet meeting of the new NDA Government, 3 crore housing units were cleared for the next five years, of which 2 crores would be built in rural areas, while the remaining 1 crore would be constructed in urban areas.
