Life Mission is an established project of the Kerala government to ensure a house for those families in Kerala having no land or housing. It’s a big project. All the landless families will be rehabilitated. In most cases, village or panchayath members and other local bodies will ensure a home for those landless families in their respective wards because they know that the families cannot build homes and don’t have even a small land.
if you are eligible for a home under the Life Mission housing scheme, you can ask your ward members to get a decent livelihood. You can apply for the Kerala Life Mission housing scheme online if they refuse to add you to the scheme. In most cases, your ward members will know more about you and will do all the procedures for you.
Anyway, I am here to share the processes to apply for the Life Mission housing project online.
