President assures to probe concerns over Hiyaavahi financing scheme
During the 'Rayyithunge Adu' program on Thursday night, a participant told President Dr Mohamed Muizzu that the Hiyaavahi Finance scheme approved only MVR 650,000 of their MVR 900,000 housing loan application, with instalments blocked by building registration requirements. President Muizzu said the issues had not been raised with him before, acknowledged the implementation fell short of his vision, and pledged to ask the Ministry to investigate the reduced approval and explore increasing the amount.
