Following the directives of Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz, funds worth Rs20 billion have been released to continue the construction of homes under the “Apni Chhat Apna Ghar” program.
The move aims to maintain the continuity of housing projects for deserving families. So far, over 121,000 families have received interest-free loans for home construction. An additional 26,000 families are expected to receive immediate installments, while more than 43,000 houses are currently under construction across the province.
Under the program, expenditures exceeding Rs172 billion have already been made to build homes for eligible families. The spokesperson added that over Rs6 billion has been successfully recovered, and the second installment has been released for more than 112,000 families to complete construction.
The five-year target of the program is to construct 500,000 homes, benefiting a large number of deserving families. Loan disbursement processes have been kept simple, transparent, and accessible, according to officials.
