News@9: Today's top headlines - August 27, 2026 [WATCH]

The Telangana government's Indiramma Housing towers in Hyderabad, known as CURE, will conduct lucky draws on August 28-31, 2026, to select beneficiaries for 7,340 affordable flats. These flats are spread across 16 Assembly constituencies within the Core Urban Region (CURE). Four constituencies will host draws each day, with the lucky draws streamed live on the Telangana Housing Board's website, Facebook, and Instagram.

Due to space and security constraints, not all applicants can attend the events, but arrangements are being made for live streaming. The government plans to build 1 lakh Indiramma Houses in the Hyderabad (CURE) region, with the pilot project focusing on constructing 480 flats in each of the 16 constituencies. The application window for 1,920 additional flats in four constituencies remains open until September 3, 2026.

Ineligible applicants can apply for Middle Income Group (MIG) houses, which will be announced by the government soon.
