Indian company, Mohan Mutha Exports has decided to build 138 houses for the senior officials at Maldives National Defense Force (MNDF).
Mohan Mutha is set to build the homes with their own resources, on the basis of contractor financing.
According to a senior official at the President’s Office, the project was proposed by Mohan Mutha as an unsolicited proposal where they would fund the project with their own money.
The official told TMJ that the idea behind the proposal was to establish a Military Residential Township and the state is to pay for it upon completion.
The houses will be built on 100,000 square feet of land assigned to MNDF from Hulhumale’ Phase 2.
The government has not released any details pertaining to the projects. However, the sources have confirmed that the government will issue housing to Generals and Commanders of their choosing.
