Naya Pakistan Housing Program gets a major boost of PKR 500 million<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nThe low-cost housing project was unveiled in October 2018. The government, in the first phase has launched the project in seven districts: Quetta, Gilgit, Sukkur, Swat, Muzaffarabad, Faisalabad and Islamabad. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The government has already initiated the balloting process for the NPHS in various areas of Punjab, like Okara and Lodhran. Apart from this, foreign investors, mainly from Canada, China, UAE and Turkey, have also shown a deep interest in the project. In fact, a Chinese company has also set up a plant for easy prefabricated homes in Pakistan<\/a> for the development of Naya Pakistan Housing Project.<\/p>\n\n\n\nPunjab Govt has conducted computerized balloting of NPHP<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe Punjab government had already kick-started the allotment of houses under the NPHS through computerized balloting in Lodhran. As per the instructions received from Prime Minister Imran Khan, there are plans to launch the NPHS in Multan.

The Naya Pakistan Housing Scheme will provide houses to families belonging to low-income group<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\nMian Mehmood-ur-Rasheed, the current provincial minister for housing, has also inspected the allocated site of the project in Multan as per the latest development of Naya Pakistan Housing project. It is also expected that there will be triple-story flats constructed to accommodate as many number of low-cost families as possible. The minister also confirmed that contemporary style flats will be given on easy installments at the cost of PKR 3 million in Multan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is expected that a total of 384 flats will be constructed at Madni Chowk on approximately 23 kanal. The layout of the NPHS houses in Multan would be such that the housing community will have mosques, family parks and modern health care amenities. It is expected that the project work for NPHP houses in Multan will begin from 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mian Mehmood-ur-Rasheed added the construction of 200,000 houses will be launched in seven major cities in about a year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Increased participation of private sector builders and developers<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe construction bylaws of Punjab Housing and Town Planning Agency (PHATA) and other institutions are under review to encourage builders and developers to participate in this low-cost housing project. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The housing minister for Punjab said that it is difficult to construct so many houses in such a short time without the help and support of the private sector. Therefore, the government of Punjab aims to ease bylaws for the house developers to participate in the NPHP program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The low-cost housing project was unveiled in October 2018. The government, in the first phase has launched the project in seven districts: Quetta, Gilgit, Sukkur, Swat, Muzaffarabad, Faisalabad and Islamabad. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The government has already initiated the balloting process for the NPHS in various areas of Punjab, like Okara and Lodhran. Apart from this, foreign investors, mainly from Canada, China, UAE and Turkey, have also shown a deep interest in the project. In fact, a Chinese company has also set up a plant for easy prefabricated homes in Pakistan<\/a> for the development of Naya Pakistan Housing Project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Punjab government had already kick-started the allotment of houses under the NPHS through computerized balloting in Lodhran. As per the instructions received from Prime Minister Imran Khan, there are plans to launch the NPHS in Multan. For this state land has been allocated at Madni Chowk for NPHP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mian Mehmood-ur-Rasheed, the current provincial minister for housing, has also inspected the allocated site of the project in Multan as per the latest development of Naya Pakistan Housing project. It is also expected that there will be triple-story flats constructed to accommodate as many number of low-cost families as possible. The minister also confirmed that contemporary style flats will be given on easy installments at the cost of PKR 3 million in Multan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n It is expected that a total of 384 flats will be constructed at Madni Chowk on approximately 23 kanal. The layout of the NPHS houses in Multan would be such that the housing community will have mosques, family parks and modern health care amenities. It is expected that the project work for NPHP houses in Multan will begin from 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mian Mehmood-ur-Rasheed added the construction of 200,000 houses will be launched in seven major cities in about a year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The construction bylaws of Punjab Housing and Town Planning Agency (PHATA) and other institutions are under review to encourage builders and developers to participate in this low-cost housing project. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The housing minister for Punjab said that it is difficult to construct so many houses in such a short time without the help and support of the private sector. Therefore, the government of Punjab aims to ease bylaws for the house developers to participate in the NPHP program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, these were the latest updates on the Naya Pakistan Housing Program<\/a>.
