Funding Model and Public Participation
One of the best parts of the Namakku Naame scheme is its funding model. The Tiruchi Corporation gives up to 67% of project costs, while the public and residents provide at least 33%. This cost-sharing method creates a sense of ownership among residents.
Also, welfare associations along with corporate groups and banks support these projects through their corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs. This inclusive approach speeds up development and encourages community involvement.
Role of Ward Councillors and Project Planning
Residents actively participate by sending requests to their ward councillors who work with junior engineers to prepare cost estimates for the projects. Once estimates are approved, the projects move through tendering and implementation stages, maintaining clarity and accountability throughout.
Impact and Benefits for Local Communities
These 21 infrastructure projects under Namakku Naame will greatly improve basic facilities in Tiruchi’s residential areas. Better roads and improved water supply ease daily challenges. Enhanced sewage and drainage systems improve sanitation and health. Beautification and surveillance projects increase safety and make neighborhoods more pleasant.
Also, community facilities such as health centre upgrades and sports clubs give residents better social and recreational options. This wide improvement raises quality of life and encourages active participation from the community.
