He lives in an old wood /tin house that has two small rooms and is also in a very bad condition. This house is their ancestral property. They applied for the help from BRIC Foundation to build their house, as they can’t afford to rebuild the house with their own income.

BRIC Foundation accepted the application and decided to build a house for them. This house is 20 feet by 16 feet. It has two rooms and one balcony.
