The Prime Minister of Pakistan Imran Khan has lately started a new housing program that aims to give a safe shelter to millions of low income and poor people in Pakistan. This scheme was announced in the month of October 2018 that Naya Pakistan housing project initiated by the Government, will be constructing 5 million houses for people who cannot afford their own houses. This project will cover the shortfall of houses in the country as 0.7 million houses will be constructed every year for fulfilling the exigency. Not only this housing project will provide houses to needy people but also, it will create chances of providing jobs for people as it will be beneficial for several industries and related business. This housing scheme will create more white-collar jobs and help in lowering the unemployment rate at a visible scale. 

The National Database Registration Authority (NADRA) is registering the interested candidates for this housing scheme. The activity regarding this project has been started in the seven district of Pakistan including Islamabad, Muzaffargarh, Sukkur, Quetta, GIlgit, Swat and Faizabad. People are demanding that the project must be started on bigger scale to cover more cities in Pakistan. Lahore has also been included in the project. This would be the largest housing project in Pakistan to benefit of needy people in the country.

NADRA is offering the forms of the housing scheme and also monitoring the next procedure of collecting and securing the information. The data collection further will help in getting the information about increasing the economy of Pakistan. Now the question is who can apply for this housing project? Thankful to the professional hands behind the project, this housing scheme has provided criteria for the people who will be applying in this project. The candidate is required to deposit the required amount at the registration office. Only one person from a family is eligible to apply for this housing scheme. The people living in small towns and big cities have admired the efforts of Pakistan's government and hope that the project will be transparent and corruption free. It is also expected that the basic needs of sanitation and safety will be ensured by the authorities managing and building the housing scheme.  

The interested candidate can visit NADRA office or visit online website for downloading and filling up the required forms. The registration process is currently available for listed cities and towns and has started from 22 October and will remain available until 21st December. Only local district offices are offering the forms, none of the other government department is involved in the registration process.

The project is a landslide for the government as this facilitates poor and oppressed people waiting for shelter for decades. Naya Pakistan Housing Scheme would be the biggest adventure of people who cannot make a single home in their life due to insufficient funds and many other factors.
