Malé Mayor, Ex-Official Criticise Government’s Handling of Social Housing Schemes

Malé Mayor Adam Azim criticised Housing Minister Ali Haider for forming a five-member committee including city council members without consulting the council, while the Anti-Corruption Commission found that 59% of beneficiaries in the first 4,000 Binveriya flats did not meet scheme requirements. Former Minister of State for Housing Akram Kamaluddin accused President Muizzu's administration of failing to deliver land and flats to beneficiaries, as the Housing Ministry extended a deadline for document collection to 27 March.
