Published November 19, 2021

Prime Minister Imran Khan has said that the government is incentivising the construction industry to help low-income groups have their own houses.

Speaking at a ceremony of Naya Pakistan Housing Authority's project Farash Town Apartments in Islamabad on Friday, the PM said that of the total 4,400 apartments, 2,000 each have been allocated for low- and middle-income groups.
