The project of construction of the apartments for the low income government servants was started in 2008 and was to be completed in 2010, but after the passage of 10 years the allotees are still waiting to get the project completed.
Low-cost housing needs $180b to meet Pakistan’s shortage
The allottees said the Ministry of Housing and Works was not taking serious efforts for completing this project as it was a 10-year-old project and the government should take notice of the delay and address the hurdles in its completion. They said that the PHA was demanding more money from them in order to meet the expenses of construction of the project, which is very difficult to pay for the middle-class people.
They said the Ministry for Housing and Works has time and again announced dates for completing the project on different forums but in vain.
