Akram assured that the process of signing contracts will persist until Thursday, accommodating those who have missed the initial deadline set by the ministry and individuals who may have encountered obstacles preventing them from registering their lands. 

The signing procedures are presently in progress at Dharubaaruge, with the ministry dedicatedly conducting these activities during weekends and informal hours.

The current government initially aimed to conclude all land allocations by November, but the task is still underway, with the Ministry withholding specific details on the progress achieved thus far.

A total of over 19,000 eligible residents are in line for land allocations within the housing project, encompassing 9001 plots with joint applications.
