After launching Amma Canteens, Amma Cement and Amma Mineral Water, Jayalalithaa government in Tamil Nadu today unveiled plans to build "Amma Marriage Halls" at 11 locations in the state at an estimated cost of Rs 83 crore. In a statement, the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister said that these marriage halls will be helpful to the poor people as they have to pay high rents for conducting functions like
wedding. She also hinted that these marriage halls would be available at lower rentals.
The marriage halls will have all facilities, including air conditioned rooms and kitchens. The scheme will be implemented by Tamil Nadu Housing Board and cooperative housing societies, she said.
The halls are proposed to be constructed in Chennai, Madurai, Tirunelveli, Salem, Tiruvallur and Tirupur districts at an estimated Rs 83 crore, she said, adding the halls can be booked online.
The Chief Minister also proposed a number of housing projects running into several crores of rupees.
The Tamil Nadu government is already implementing a series of welfare initiatives under the "Amma" brand such as the popular and low-cost Amma Canteens, Amma Cement and Amma Mineral Water among others.
