You must have heard a lot about the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana. But a unique scheme is going on in England. Here the government is picking up people from the streets and distributing houses to them. All facilities are being provided for free. Not even a single penny will be spent on treatment. No conditions have been kept. Its purpose is to provide houses to the homeless and to provide good facilities to those who live on the streets.
Mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham has launched this scheme named ‘Housing First’. Initially, 400 people will be given houses. The entire cost of this will be borne by the central government. People suffering from mental problems and those trapped in the drug trap will be given the benefit of this scheme first. The mayor said, we had done an experiment of this kind earlier also, then 413 people were given the benefit of this scheme. Due to this, the homeless people in the city got a good place to stay. They were not even visible on the streets.
This plan is already in place in Finland
This scheme has been made after looking at a scheme of Finland. Finland had declared that there will be no homeless people in their country. There will be no such road on which homeless people live or are seen. As a result, you will not see anyone sleeping in the open or begging in the capital Helsinki. Even today the administration there keeps looking for such people. If anyone is seen, he is immediately picked up. He is admitted to the hospital.
found and gave home
In 1987, there were more than 18,000 homeless people in Finland, who used to spend the night on the streets. They were seen sleeping in the open. Most of these people were living with their friends or family. But recent figures show that now only a few people can be seen doing this in the whole country. Because in 2007 Finland launched the ‘Housing First’ policy. Such people were searched and given houses. Proper treatment was arranged for those who used drugs. They were given skill development training so that they could do their work.
