Government to bring out low-cost housing scheme
The Labour Ministry is planning to come out with a scheme to provide low-cost housing for retirement fund body Employees Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) subscribers. “To further encourage members to continue their PF membership throughout their working life we are actively considering a proposal to assist PF members in getting a house by pledging their present and future PF accumulations. The members would be free to procure a house wherever they want,”said Bandaru Dattatreya, the Union Minister of State for Labour and Employment.
