PM Khan was hopeful that this flagship project will not only provide shelter to the low-income segment of the society, it will also boost the country’s economy and create immense job opportunities.
He tweeted that the ‘landmark housing policy’ will not only produce 4 million jobs but will also create demand in 40 industries that are directly linked to house-building.
The first phase of the scheme has been launched in seven cities of the country and the registration form for the housing program has been uploaded on NADRA’s website.
