Government Initiative - Housing sector revival in Pakistan, ray of hope for lower middle class.

Under Prime Minister Imran Khan's "Naya Pakistan" the revival of pro-poor housing facilities initiative is a ray of hope for the lower-middle-income groups yearning to live a dignified life in their own shelter.
