July 03, 2021
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi today reviewed the Lighthouse projects in a unique way. He reviewed the progress of these projects across the country via drones.
PM had launched the Lighthouse projects in 1st January 2021, to use new technology to complete housing projects faster while making them more resilient.
Work on 6 light house projects at different sites is going on, using modern technology.
For example the project in Indore will not have brick and mortar walls, instead they will use the prefabricated Sandwich Panel system.
The light houses in Rajkot will be built using French technology and have monolithic concrete construction technology using tunnel and the house will be more capable of withstanding disasters.
Canada’s technology is being used in Lucknow, which will not require plaster and paint and will use the entire walls already prepared to build houses faster.
In Chennai, US and Finland technologies will use the Precast Concrete system, which will construct the house faster and cheaper.
In Ranchi houses will be built using Germany’s 3D construction system. Each room will be made separately and then the entire structure will be added in the same way as Lego Blocks toys.
Houses are being built in Agartala with the steel frames using New Zealand’s technology which can withstand major earthquake risk.
Thousands of houses will be built quickly at every location which will act as incubation centers through which our planners, architects, engineers and students will be able to learn and experiment with new technology. DeshGujarat
