In a high-level meeting held under the chairmanship of Punjab Chief Minister Sardar Usman Buzdar, here on Monday, it was decided that a feasible business model will be devised for "Naya Pakistan Housing Scheme" and Naya Pakistan Housing Authority and Housing Taskforce Punjab will jointly work to move the project forward.
Chairman Naya Pakistan Housing Authority Lieutenant-General Anwar Ali Haider (Retd) also attended the meeting, which decided to take coordinated steps to accelerate work on this scheme.
While addressing the meeting, Buzdar said that construction of low-cost houses for low-income families is a flagship programme of the PTI government. "Suitable sites have been selected in some districts of the province for this scheme and this project would enable the middle-class to own a house," he said.
He directed that matters pertaining to this project should be settled early and hoped that this scheme will create tremendous job opportunities.
He assured that the Punjab government will extend every possible support for speedy work on this scheme and the province will take a lead in this regard.
Advisor to CM Dr Suleman Shah, Chief Secretary, Chairman P&D, secretaries of finance and housing departments, Chairman Housing Taskforce Punjab Mian Yaqoob Tahir Izhar and others also attended the meeting.
