Prime Minister (PM) Shehbaz Sharif on Wednesday said that it is one of the government top priorities to facilitate low-cost housing schemes.
The prime minister passed these remarks while chairing a review meeting of the Task Force on housing sector development for low-cost housing projects chaired. PM Shehbaz said the affordable housing projects would not only make residential units accessible to the common man but would also boost the national economy and create employment opportunities.
The prime minister further directed that the task force, in collaboration with the Ministry of Finance and banks, should soon submit recommendations for financing low-cost housing projects, which should be included in the upcoming budget proposals.
PM Shehbaz said that the sustainable growth of the national economy was closely linked with the development of the construction sector.
