Visited LightHouse Project site (LHP) at Perumbakkam in Chennai today. Hon’ble PM laid the foundation of this work of constructing 1,152 G+5 houses on 1 January 2021. Ms Sirke is using Precast Concrete Construction Technology from Finland to deliver this work in less than a year. 
Was extremely impressed to see the progress on site. On the one hand, raft, base concrete slab etc are going for 4 towers, precast elements like roof slab, hollow columns, stairs etc are being cast in a temporary factory type of set up around 200 metres away from the site.
A Third Party expert body will be monitoring the quality.
Ms Sirke’s senior official told me that they guarantee life for 100 years & if maintained well, these houses will last for many more years. Could observe resource efficiency, speed & meticulous precision work on site.

It augurs very well for #AatmaNirbharBharat. With these type of new technologies, India will be in position to address future construction requirements of rapid urbanisation.
I encourage students, faculty, researchers, practitioners from private/ public sector to learn these new construction technologies.
These are being implemented in 6 LHPs in Chennai, Rajkot, Indore, Lucknow, Ranchi & Agartala.

We’re showing progress on every site on daily basis through our website and shall soon start enrolling all those interested in joining regular webcasts or visit on site to learn details.
In my meeting with Chief Secretary & Hon’ble CM, I requested them to get this new technology used in a big way in the State in all other types of construction activities; may be through Swiss Challenge method.
