Over 62,500 homes have been built under ‘Apni Chat Apna Ghar’ scheme in Punjab under the leadership of CM Maryam Nawaz, ARY News reported on Wednesday, quoting a government spokesperson.
Earlier, it was decided in the meeting that over 3000 houses will be built for low-income people in every district of Punjab.
As per details, the ‘Apni Chat Apna Ghar’ project has set a new benchmark in public housing by achieving record-level completion, combining quality with unmatched execution speed.
In just half a year, the Punjab government has constructed 62,500 homes—setting a historic record in Pakistan’s housing sector.
Under the scheme, interest-free loans exceeding Rs. 74 billion were disbursed for the construction of 5 to 10 marla homes. The public, in turn, has made an unprecedented repayment effort, with a recovery rate of 99.9%, marking a new benchmark not only in Punjab but across the country.
