Bemetara (Chhattisgarh), March 22 (SocialNews.XYZ) Chhattisgarh Governor Ramen Deka visited Bemetara district of the state on Saturday, where he met beneficiaries of the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) and discussed their issues. He visited the village of Chorbhatti, near the district headquarters, and inspected the house of Kekti Bai Sahu, a beneficiary of the scheme.

After the meeting, Kekti Bai Sahu shared her experience with IANS stating that she had previously lived in a thatched-roof house, which caused her problems in every season.
Rain, intense heat, and strong winds used to affect her life. Now that she has a new house under the PMAY, she feels much more comfortable. She expressed her gratitude to the state government and the Governor, calling his visit a significant moment in her life.
The newly elected female Sarpanch (village head) of Chorbhatti raised the issue of the shortage of teachers in the village school during the Governor's visit.
