The Punjab government has introduced a new plot allotment scheme to reward officers in civil service, Provincial Management Service (PMS), and police service.
Plots of two kanals, one kanal, and 10 marlas will be available near Kala Khatai Road Interchange. The scheme includes a 30% quota for Pakistan Administrative Services and PMS officers, 10% for police officers, and 30% for X-cadre employees.
Plots are priced at Rs 800,000 per marla, with payment options spread over eight years. Officers in grades 21-22 are eligible for two-kanal plots. The Planning and Development (P&D) department has issued an official letter and application form for the scheme.
Earlier this month, Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has announced 1,224 free flats for workers in Taxila and Sunder labor colonies.
During a high-level meeting, key decisions were made to enhance workers’ welfare. Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz reviewed the Labor Department’s performance and received briefings on various projects, including scholarships for workers, the creation of labor colonies, and healthcare programs.
The Chief Minister highlighted the importance of these efforts and stated that 6 billion rupees have been allocated for overdue death and marriage grants to over 29,000 workers.
Approval was also given for the construction of two hostels for women workers in Garment City, providing accommodation for 704 women in Sheikhupura.
